Saturday morning I woke up EARLY to get ready for my scheduled long run. I started with some Vanilla Chobs (
love calling it that) mixed in with some PB2, and some Special K Granola I received from the Foodbuzz Tastemakers program:
Perfect sized breakfast before a long run!
I had 10 miles scheduled, so I started out and did about 5.5 miles, then looped back around by my house to grab some water, “use the restroom” (sounds so funny to say it that way about your own house)
and I grabbed a Mint Chocolate Gu
Mint Chocolate isn’t around all year – I had it left over from Christmas, but I must say – it’s DELICIOUS! I’d totally consider just eating this for dessert some night, I’m sure!
By the time I’d finished my run and gotten showered – it was time to run out the door and head to Hudson so I could help/support my friend Kristin as she went wedding dress shopping. I would be a bride 60 times over – I think all things wedding planning are SO MUCH FUN!
As a thank you for our support – Kristin treated her entourage to lunch
and I decided to go with the half Caesar, half flatbread (which was really just pizza if we are being honest!)
Followed up with a quick trip to the ORIGINAL Main Street Cupcakes Location for a sweet treat:
I went for the Margarita Cupcake because – 1: I LOVE Margaritas, 2: I LOVE everything green!
I hated it, obviously!
Then – we headed home, only to turn around and get ready for Kristin and Tim’s engagement party!
With all the excitement and running around of Saturday – I actually forgot my camera, for the first time in my “blogging history!”
So instead of showing you all the fantastic party eats/appetizers/wine I drank Saturday night – I’ll show you a quick lesson I learned.
Do not buy this:
Their version of “Sun-Washed Cotton” smells like a baby wipe – that’s ALREADY been used on a poopy baby butt!
Instead – drive yourself out to Bath and Body Work – and buy this:
IT’S HEAVEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!
What’s your favorite “scent”??? (candle, house spray, car freshener, etc…)

I agree…I could go wedding dress shopping many times over. It was just so fun!
I would never be able to choose just one cupcake…they all look amazing!
Congrats on the run!

Margarita cupcakes sounds genius! I wonder if I can replicate that for a St. Paddy’s party. What do you think the recipe is?

I love the smell of a man, and I’m being 100% serious! I also love my purfume, Pretty, and the smell of rubber balls and the inside of a plastic movie case and any baked good fresh from the oven.
