I wisked myself to my mom's house this weekend to get in some uninterrupted studying time!
But a mini re-cap:
The Weather!!
I'ts been SO GORGEOUS here in Boston!! Friday was 70*!!!! I couldn't possibly make myself study Friday after work so I got home and went for a run! It was great. I don't know how far I went but I was out for about 40min...running with some walking. Then I met up with friends in the North End where I had 1.5 glasses of Savignon Blanc at Bacco, then an appetizer at Monicas!
The wine was Oyster Bay Savignon Blanc...AMAZING!
Saturday was super study time...I made myself a GREEN smoothie and headed off to Mom's. I love how sunny warm(er) weather makes me want to eat better in general :)
- 1 cup Almond milk
- 4 frozen strawberries
- handful of Kale
- 1/3 ripe banana
- 1/2 scoop vanilla protein powder
- >1T Almond Butter
- mmmmmmmmmmmmmmGREEN!
Sunday was grocery shopping, and then I made my mom Kale Chips!She gets such a kick out of some of the things "I come up with" (I know I didn't come up with them...I told her that) but she really liked them!
then MORE studying, then another great run!
I followed up the run with lunges up and down the driveway, some arm work with dumbbells and abs!
For dinner we got out, and headed to one of my faves: Legal Seafoods!
After the wine Friday I was actually craving it again...this is like the most wine I've drank in 1 weekend in a while hahaNot as good as Friday's...but still yummy. I love the little fishy guy on their wine glasses.
I wanted to get a good serving of fish, so I ordered the Wood Grilled Assortment: the Chef's selections of three fish, shrimp, and scallopsThat would be: Scallops, Shrimp, Blue Fish (far right), Tuna (middle under the shrimp), and swordfish (can't see it under the shrimp). Steamed Broccoli and Snap Peas as my sides!
They are the masters a wood grilled fish...it's always so flavorful and perfectly cooked! Plus I have leftovers for tomorrow.
Once again I hate my lack of posting lately, but everything is just sucky lately...wow this exam just puts me in the worst mood, I can't WAIT to be done on Friday!!!!
Hope you all have a great week! I am HOPE HOPE to see you tomorrow :)
Hang in there, dear Bridget!!!
