Group run and birthday bbq

I thought the movie "It's Complicated" was surprisingly good.  I really enjoyed it.  

I started this morning by joining the running group for a run around the lake.  It was very humid, and I was soaked by the time we finished running.  I ran with two other people for most of the run, and we took a few walk breaks.  In total we ran 4.95 miles in 50:54 for an average pace of 10:17.  Then we all went to Barnies coffee and hung out. 

After I got home, I took a nap before Chris and I headed to our friend's home to celebrate Federica's birthday with a delicious bbq and pool party.  We had a wonderful time!  The pool was a great way to cool down, because the sun was brutal today.

Later, Chris and I did some grocery shopping, cleaning, and cooking.  My dinner was awesome!  I had some homemade chicken nuggets and finally tried baked beans on a sweet potato.  Delicious!  Oh, I also had some broccoli, sweet wine, and amazing key lime pie frozen yogurt for dessert.


I have a day off from running tomorrow, and I am looking forward to relaxing!  Now I am going to get ready for bed.  I hope you all have had a fantastic weekend.

  1. I totally want to see It's Complicated! I keep thinking it would suck but Alec Baldwin's "OMG I thought he'd never leave" cracks me up!

  3. That looks tasty! I need to start some healthy cooking. I've been eating out too much because it's fast and cheap. It's another downside of the end of the semester.

  5. First of all, thank you all so much for your comments! When I get that little e-mail telling me I have a new comment, it really makes my day!

    Retta: It's Complicated was way better than I thought it was going to bed. I did enjoy it. That line in the movie was hilarious. I hope your running is going well.

    Jamie: I know what you mean! All the eating out for convenience only makes me feel dreadful by the end of the semester. But after finals I always look forward to cooking again. I have found so many delicious recipes from other blogs. I cannot wait to make more dinner recipes now that the summer semester is finally here.

    Jessica aka Jes: I'm so glad you found my blog! Caitlin@HTP's blog is so wonderful, and I think that here plug blog was brilliant. Also, I'm so glad you also spell your name with one s! Not only is one S more unique, it just makes sense! Syllables are always split between the double letters... mit-tins, kit-tins, jes-sica! Hehe.
