How was your Friday?! Mine was super great because I got word that my little brother, Matt, won his student council election! I wrote the catch phrase for his speech, so I’m taking partial credit I really think I should be a speech writer. Especially if speeches only required 140 characters.
I didn’t win any election, but I did spend some time sipping iced coffee while shopping at Target, which pretty much rocks.
I went there for one thing and ended up with a huge bag of loot! Oops.
In my defense, I found a gold mine on the clearance racks and scored 2 running shirts, a sports bra and a casual shirt.
I ended up changing into the shirt to see if it fit and just left it on. When Ben came home he said I looked like Freddy Kreuger.
I had to look it up because I’ve never seen those movies (too scary!). Yep, just call me Monica Kreuger…(source)
My hunger cannot be stopped today! I picked up some grapes at Target hoping I wouldn’t do too much snacking damage and I think it slowed me down.
Then, I made pizzas for dinner… I made mine on ww tortillas with extra sauce and cheese.
And made a massive broccoli slaw salad on the side to try and fill up my belly. I made it with a whole bag of slaw, sesame dressing and chickpeas. Then, I pretty much dominated the entire serving bowl.
Then, Ben and I walked to Yogurtland for dessert.
He tried the PB&J flavor and the Oatmeal Cookie kind for the first time. His exact words, “How do they do it?!”.
FINALLY! Craving satisfied. My exact words, “Ahhhh, I needed that.”
Tomorrow might be crazy. I’m getting up early for my run and heading to the funeral 2 hours away. At night we have a big family party to hit up. Should be fun!

OMG, I must go to Yogurtland. PB&J is a favorite flavor of mine. And oatmeal cookie sounds amazing too! I’m normally a Menchie’s fan, but I might have to make the switch now… 🙂

And thanks…now I must go to Target to check out the clearance racks. ;P
runeatrepeat says
Yeah! Thanks for congratulating Matt – he loved it 🙂
Tina @ Faith Fitness Fun says
Well, you make a hot Freddy Kreuger. And I’m hitting up Target this afternoon. I have full intentions of getting sucked into Starbucks while I am there. Hopefully I will find some steals on clearance too! 🙂
Aleks says
do i spy a princeton sweatshirt?
runeatrepeat says
Ben went to Princeton. I went to a state school. I just got lucky with a smarty 🙂
Aleks says
yup, i remembered that. you posted about not going to reunions while i was there this year. i’m wondering what happened to my sweatshirt… i think it got lost when i was moving transcontinentally :(.
(hey, you’re smart too… it’s not about the pieces of paper you can hang on your wall!)
Kellie says
I have a random question. I can’t get my garmin to charge and I know you have the same one. Did this ever happen to you and do you have any “secrets” to get it to charge. I don’t even know where to take it in the OC to get it fixed.
runeatrepeat says
You might need to wipe down the back charger part with a swab of alcohol or a damp cloth because of sweat/salt build up. This happened to me. Mine is on it’s way out and I have to literally hold it together sometimes!
Fallon says
Had a huge bowl of fro-yo last night as well..best invention ever! I can’t wait to get back home and try those flavors from Yogurtland. We have Tutti Fruiti out in Augusta,GA.. which is good but Yogurtland is much better!
Matthew says
I thought Ben was going to put u on a buget!?! His ROFLcopter is attack you with its LOL guns! soi soi soi!
Lindsay @ Lindsay's List says
If you WALK to get dessert, it makes it healthy, right??
Dani says
I just posted about the exact same thing!! Went to Target for soup, came home with clothes, a snack, and no soup. Gah!!
Brittany @ Itty Bits of Balance says
Target deals are amazing, but Target deals WITH an iced coffee are the greatest. I have a difficult time shopping in Targets that DONT have a Starbucks 😉
Rosa - Fitness, Food, Fulfilled says
I went to Target yesterday too for one thing and walked out $50 poorer. How does that always happen?
christina cadden says
I love Target and could shop there for hours!
jenna k says
those sports bras are my favorites. i wish my store would have them on clearance!
mmm i’ve never seen pb&j or oatmeal cookie froyo… those sound amazing! i always get angel food cake, dulce de leche, or double stuffed cookie 🙂
