The Way to My Tiny Black Heart

Hello! How’s your week going?

Yesterday I got a very pleasant surprise… Ben has been traveling and decided to bring his cute butt back to SoCal. He showed up around lunch time with flowers, but more importantly – DONUTS. He knows how to get to me.

Lunch was donuts so dinner was a big salad. It’s all about balance.

This morning I opened up this jar of Cashew Butter from Trader Joes. I had never tried it before on purpose – cashews are my favorite nut and I was afraid I’d eat in one day.

Yep, I’m in trouble. I love it.

This morning’s run was good. I went on a new route and just enjoyed it. No time goal, no distance goal, just running….

And when I got back I did the Ice Bucket Challenge – have you heard of this? Sarah Fit tagged me to dump a bucket of ice on my head to raise attention for ALS.

Check out more information on ALS here.

Question: What is one thing someone could bring you that is the way to your heart?

THIS IS YOUR YEAR.

      A nice breakfast spread waiting for me when I get back from my long run. Pretty much all I think about on the second half of my long run is what I’m gonna eat when I’m done, and to have it already made, sitting there waiting for me would be the best!

      Hmm….that’s a tough one.

      Methink toast with a chunk of butter and a dollop of raw honey or jam. That’s my vice.

      Yum!

      I’d say he’s a keeper. Donuts are way better than flowers anyway. 🙂 What would win me over: a nice cheese plate or maybe Starbucks. An apple fritter would work, too.

      Ice-cream hands down, followed very closely by chocolate mousse, but that’s kinda harder to come by. Flowers are ok too I guess 🙂

      Nope. Can’t even look at those donuts! Getting married in less than two weeks, so making sure I don’t overdo it on anything and make myself lovely and bloated for the pics!
