23 Hours…

Good Morning! Hope you’re enjoying your weekend. Today is an hour shorter then every other day of this year so make sure to make the most of it! I love springing ahead because it will be lighter longer now but it looks like it’s going to be cloudy today and for the next couple days, we may not even get to enjoy the extra light. It has been so warm this weekend, all 14 inches of the snow are gone, in less the 6 days since the big snow fall it disappeared! It was close to 70 yesterday and I thoroughly enjoyed the weather.
Friday night was a ton of fun we went out to a bar down the street, I have such a great group of friends! I had a mozzarella stick but no picture of it, the rest of the night I enjoyed water and the company of my friends. So different from a few months ago where everytime we’d go out I’d spend 40 bucks on drinks, and feel sick Saturday morning. I’d really rather no have a drink at all or just enjoy one drink, just another change I made this year that I’m happy about. We came home kinda early and went to bed since Andrew had work Saturday morning. BUT I had a great conversation with my 2 best girlfriends and we have decided to run the Fear The Pier 5k in May! I’m so excited! It’ll be my first 5k and I couldn’t be happier about running it with them. Time to start training!
Yesterday morning I had personal training so I had a protein packed breakfast of a 0% plain Chobani with a piece of the banana bread mixed in. I hate it outside on our deck in the sunshine!
My trainer kicked my ass yesterday! I was so tired after training I didn’t wind up doing any cardio at the gym. I am so sore today and plan on doing some yoga to loosen up before I hit up the gym.
After personal training yesterday I went to my parents house to hang out with my sister while my parents went to buy new couches, after Andrew got out of work he stopped by Tropical Smoothie Cafe and grabbed me the same Veggie Veggie wrap as last time, and I went a little crazy and had a serving sized bag of baked lays with it.
After lunch Andrew and I took turns using my parents elliptical, I had to get my cardio in somewhere and it was slightly raining so I was a baby and didn’t want to go outside..
After that we came back to the apartment to clean and eat dinner. I had an eggplant I had to use up so I made my version of eggplant parm. Just sliced the eggplant, roasted it in the oven with a small amount of EVOO brushed onto the eggplant with garlic powder sprinkled on top and popped it in the oven for 20 minutes flipping once half way through. I then put it in a casserole dish covered it with sauce and a small amount of cheese. After the cheese is melted it’s done! Oh my gosh this is sooo good.
Once dinner was over, MsInformed and her fiancé came over to celebrate her birthday!!!! We had pomegranate and vodka drinks with the POM Wonderful juice. She also agreed it was really good. This is a photo from last time because I didn’t get a chance to take a picture last night.
Well I’m going to have some coffee and find something to eat before I run to the gym. Have a great Sunday! I’ll be back after dinner tonight!

I was so mad this morning! It was supposed to be all bright and cheery today for DST but it was all grey and cloudy. Blah!
Lovely eggplant parm, I love that dish.

Congrats on your upcoming 5K. You will have so much fun, you’ll probably be signing up for every 5K that comes along thereafter.
The food looks great!
