Hello! How was your weekend? Mine was full of relaxing and eatin’ – I needed that.
It also included running Saturday morning.
And catching up with my best friend Saturday night 
Aaand discovering this ridiculous drink Viniq.
It’s shimmery and purple and tastes good straight… which means it’s probably wildly dangerous because it goes down so smooth. Technically this isn’t Purple Drank, but Cin kept calling it that and I randomly found it hysterical. It tastes like a flat grape soda kinda sorta in a way. I hear you can make fancy mixed drinks with it, but we tried it straight up.
I actually went with my favorite drink right now – a Paloma! Love those!!
The Paloma Recipe that I first posted was a yellow drink because I used another soda. This is the same except I found a pink grapefruit one.
This morning I kept my Sunday walk tradition alive since it’s a rest day.
Then, I hit up Trader Joes for a grocery haul.
I got ready for church, curled my hair and everything – and was still early?! Who are you and where is my Monican????
Luckily, that gave me plenty of time to take creepy selfies and talk to Vegas.
Seen at church:
This afternoon I was going to go see that movie This Is Where I Leave You, but opted to hit up my parent’s pool instead. It’s over 100 degrees here today!!
Of course first I had to raid the fridge kitchen…
Have you seen these new Pumpkin Spice Almonds?! Love.
And I can always count on my lil mom to have a watermelon ready for me to cut!
Question: What was the BEST thing you did or ate this weekend?
Me: Palmona last night with Cin.
The purple stuff is AMAZING!!!
Those almonds look amazing! Now I need to add them to my grocery list!
OMG…I could not deal with 100 degrees right now. It’s supposed to get to 90 degrees again twice this week. I am not excited. Kansas has crazy bipolar weather right now – high 50s one day, then mid 90s the next. I’m ready for the weather to make up its mind!
Your arms look amazing in the watermelon pic!
The best thing I ate this weekend was definitely Thai with my sister after work 🙂
Haha, when I saw the title I thought the post was going to be about red wine, but this Viniq stuff looks even better!
The best thing I ate was steak with potato wedges & salad for dinner on Saturday – love coming back home at the weekends! 😉
check out those guns!
Did: ran a new 10K PR
Ate: buffalo chicken dip (in celebration)
That purple stuff looks dangerous!
Best thing that I ate this weekend-delicious burger with sauteed onions.
Best thing I did-learning to shoot with my family.
Your arms look super toned holding up that watermelon! I’m totally jealous!! 🙂
Best thing I ate this weekend was a cinnamon raisin bagel wth melted cheese on chilly Sunday morning.
I want to go to the store like right now and get those almonds! Best thing that I did was go to a Detroit Tigers game on Saturday. The nerd in me loved it because it was Star Wars Night. I also may have enjoyed my last Summer Shandy (or two) of the season 🙂
I buried my face in a plate of Eggs Benedict after my 13 mile long run on Sunday. Best.thing.ever.
I think this is the first time I’m not jealous of your weather in California! We had a beautiful 60 degrees weather weekend here, leaves are starting to change, just makes me happy. I couldn’t handle the heat and humidity anymore.
Pumpkin spice almonds?! That’s brilliant! need to find those… 🙂
The best thing I did this weekend was run 10k, not just because it was an awesome run but the laziness and crappy chick flicks that followed the run were totally justified. 🙂
Best thing I ate this weekend was homemade pizza! And I think the best thing I did was drink wine after a 5k that didn’t go quite as planned.
The best thing I ate was a chipotle beef rice bowl and the best thing I did was get a spa pedicure!!!
It had to be the McD breakkie with the running group yesterday (check out this pics on Eve’s FB page – missyblurkit); we got rained in and had brekkie instead. Oh, we did run after that.
I ran a trail half marathon on Staurday. I think that the fig newtons I gobbled down at the aid station at mile 10 were the best things I ate all weekend. I’ve certainly never ever enjoyed a fig newton more ever in my entire life.
Trail race aid stations are the best!
Best thing I ate was bacon wrapped sweet potatoes! Best thing I did was go crazy on my leg workout on Friday…could walk most of the weekend!
Best thing I did by far was go to our church’s baptism. We have it on a big farm with a creek and 95 people got baptized. We have a huge meal and great music and celebration. Then I came home and worked my butt off with p90x so I can get down to my goal weight!
Best thing I did: ran a marathon (but ran it kinda crappy).
Best thing I ate: the bottle of champagne I’m finishing off.
Congratulations!!! All marathons are amazing accomplishments!
I had a root beer float! Oh my god it was so good. 🙂
I’ll tell you what mine was filled with…
I lost everything in my computer because it crashed.
🙁
The best thing I ate this weekend was a salted watermelon GU on my long run today – why did no one tell me how incredibly delicious they are? Now I need more!
I want to come to your parents and help raid their fridge
