Friday: went to the gym and then promptly passed out. I was sad to miss my friend's housewarming party.
Saturday: football, cleaning, baking, then friends!
My Big and one of my Littles came over, so it was a "family" reunion of sorts!
We introduced Cat and her boyfriend to the gloriousness that is Giordano's Pizza. YUM.
I also baked Mo Cookies, named after my high school BFF Mo, who made them often for any reason and brought them to school. It's a Milky Way inside a chocolate chip cookie. DOUBLE YUM.
Our church had a big group run and they had a special blessing at the end of Mass.
The heavy eating Saturday night and the marathon buzz almost made me want to run a marathon.
(And by almost I mean the attention would be cool but that's it.)
But it did make me research triathlons in Chicago and indoor pools for training.
Next August I will OWN the (sprint distance) triathlon!
(And by OWN I mean I will participate in the shortest race available and earn a medal for sweating. I guess I'll finish, too.)
Aside from these activities we cheered on our victorious teams all weekend. I couldn't believe all of our teams won! I even beat Andrew in fantasy football this week!!!
Last night we made Gina's Skinny Carnitas and Andrew's mom's AMAZING recipe for black beans...mmmmm

I also rushed to finish The Paris Wife before book club tonight!

I was pretty sleepy, sure, but nowhere near as tuckered out as Teddy.
(I linked up with Sami, Dana, and Leeann today!!)

Mmmm. I need a Mo cookie now!
Lol at least you got motivated. I'd eat my cookie, watch them run, and think to myself "they are crazy!" as I ate another cookie ;)
Thanks for linking up with us!
Wow girl! You were busy busy! I know how you feel, I had a few friends run too and *maybe someday* have the courage, guts and will power to go that far. That's awesome that you want to do a triathlon. You'll rock it!
