Ben and I went on a walk this morning. I needed a rest day from running and he wasn’t too hung over from last night’s festivities so we headed toward my favorite place – Dunkin Donuts!
It’s just under 2 miles from his parents which makes for a great stroll 
Doesn’t this picture make it look like DD is Heavenly? Because it is. 
All I wanted was an iced coffee, but I took a few bites of Ben’s flat bread egg sandwich for sustenance. 
Random Relationship tip: I’ve heard talking while sitting, standing or walking side-by-side is good to get your partner to open up. This way he or she doesn’t feel confronted “head on” and it’s more casual and easy to talk.
I don’t remember where I read that, but I do love our long walks and talks
Last night we stopped at Ben’s friends house for some beverages. Since I knew we were going to be drinking I insisted we stop for food first. I got a Publix salad…
and some of the most amazing pita chips ever. I usually avoid Stacy’s Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips because I eat the whole bag in one sitting, but I just didn’t have the willpower last night. Ben described these as, “The largest piece of Cinnamon Toast Crunch I’ve ever seen.”
When we got to the house we were greeted with a counter full of alcohol. Don’t threaten me with a good time 
Ben’s brother, Jon, is quite the bartender…
Ben might have gotten “girly drink drunk” off of these almond joy tasting beverages. 
And this hairless cat watched it all go down. 
So, my day consisted of Orlando, Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips, a hairless cat and alcohol that takes like a candy bar. Epic.
It’s the last day of 2010. Here are my 2010 Highs and Lows.

I’ve never bought those chips because I WILL eat them in one sitting! I snagged a few off a friend once, and holy god, are they good!
Hey, I just posted a link to your website on Shut Up and Run’s blog. I think you have great food ideas, recipes and great photos. Happy New Year!
Thanks Lee, I’ll have to check that blog out now
My husband and I have our best talks when we go for long walks!
That sounds like a good day to me! Happy New Year!
girlie drink drunk is the best kind of drunk!
OMG that cat!
Looks like a fun time was had last night and this morning. You guys are too cute walking together, aww
Do you have a recipe for that almond joy shot? It sounds delicious.
I agree! You HAVE to share this recipe, Monica! Puh-leez.
I’ve never had those cinnamon sugar pita chips. I love Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal so maybe I should stay away?
ahh i love me some dunkin too!! have you tried their blueberry coffee!? its so so so good
I totally miss Dunkies. There are none in Los Angeles.
This post made me laugh. Must be the hairless cat and girly drink drunkenness.
Oh, and yes, Dunkin Donuts is heavenly.
I won’t lie, hat hairless cat kinda creeps me out!
DD is my fave! Their coffee is awesome! I’d love the recipe for the almond joy drink as well
DD is heaven. i don’t even drink coffee anymore or eat donuts very often but if DD came to the west coast i would start up again. my uncle owns 2 in long island and told me there is some franchising law against it. so sad!
eek the hairless cat is sorta freaky looking; and thanks for the heads up ont the pita chips. Cinnamon toast crunch cereal is like crack to be so I probably will never try those pita chips. ( and p.s. Ben is way cuter than his brother)
