Hello! How’s your weekend going? Mine has been awesome. I had a rough lil Friday and it was great to get in a good run and spend some time with my favorite people yesterday.
First, I started the day with a long-ish run. I don’t know if I mentioned it but I am THE WORST (okay I have mentioned that) about throwing away handheld water-bottles at races. I’ve probably done it three times now.
Not okay Monican.
But at mile 21 of a marathon when I feel like I’m soooooo tired and delirious and the water-bottle is empty I just cannot keep holding it.
So, I had to get a new one and luckily found this Nathan handheld Hydration Pack. Boom. It also comes in purple.
Post run I was ready to eat all the food. But, I started light with all the raspberries. This pack was super sweet and delicious!
And all the eggs. And all the bread (three pieces obviously).
When I was out running errands I got super hungry and ducked walked upright into a store to grab something. I ended up getting this pack of turkey to snack on – super random for me. I thought, “who am I?!” as I snacked on turkey on the way to the mall. Ha!
Mid-afternoon I headed to my favorite tiny person’s house for a family dinner. Paco says ‘hi’.
And this is what brothers are for – ruining the pictures for your blog with their smashed fingernail.
I voted on the sampler platter to start because my eat all the food theme continued into the night… (seriously, I’ll show you what I ate at 2am in the next post)
Question: What’s your favorite appetizer?
Brooke@runningonchange says
I love anything bread. That’s why I love restaurant where you don’t have to pay extra to have the bread bowl!
runeatrepeat says
Me too! I love a good sourdough bread bowl 🙂
Livi @ Eat, Pray, Work It Out says
I love bruschetta or hummus!
Carla says
ahhh I still wish I had brothers 🙂
Jenn@Mark My Miles! says
I love Mozzarella cheese sticks or wings!
Daisy @ Fit Wanderlust Runner says
I like getting fried calamari or bruschetta. Those are always my go to appetizers.
Sue says
I like bread with olive oil for dipping.
Ashley @ A Lady Goes West says
Shrimp cocktail for sure! But spinach dip comes in a close second. Yes, your brother’s finger definitely ruined that shot. Eww! Happy Sunday to you:)
Sally @ sweat out the small stuff says
I love spring rolls and spinach artichoke dip with chips.
Erin @ Erin's Inside Job says
I never get an appetizer bc I always gorge myself on actual dinner. Whenever I get a menu I completely skip over appetizers and head to entrees. If you’re talking free food before the meal, however, I am definitely all about some warm, delicious bread.
Heather @ Run Eat Play says
Give me all the nachos.
Losing Lindy says
oh those onion rings look amazing.
I got the book you suggested on eating intuition, I haven’t started reading it yet, need to finish catching up on blogs
runeatrepeat says
Let me know what you think when you read it!
Losing Lindy says
I have started, but not too far into it. I spent most of yesterday asking myself if I was hungry…before I shoved something into my mouth. So far, I say it is a win. 😉
Alisha @ Real Girl Running says
I’ll choose cheese and biscuits if I have the choice!
Sometimes I snack on meat too … I think it’s a great protein snack choice. But I’m a fully fledged carnivore 🙂
Becky @ Ok, so here's the plan says
Anything deep fried is my favorite appetizer – usually mozzarella sticks or onion rings – yum!
Leah says
Your brother’s smashed fingernail looks more appetizing than that sampler platter.
Elena says
Favorite appetizer is chips and guac – unless I’m at a Japanese restaurant – then it’s veggie tempura!
Your brother’s nail is gross and looks super painful!
runeatrepeat says
Chips and guac for life!
