Hello! How’s it going? Over here it’s going pretty great because I scored a great deal on new running gear AND got the new Quest bar! Double win for running and eating.
The new running gear was a random find actually! I went to the mall to buy the new Quest bar in Oatmeal Chocolate Chip. After I scored those bars aaaand a few whole boxes that were on clearance (!!!) I walked around a little bit and went into JC Penny. I found these 8” compression shorts and the top by Xersion. Both were on sale so I bought 2 pairs of shorts. (Which kind of cancels out saving money, but I love them so it’s okay.)
If you don’t have a JCP near you, these look similar in length and have tons of color options…
About the Quest bars…
I have loved the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough flavor forever. I like some of the other flavors, but only love love that one and Smores, okay and the Oreo one. Anyway…
I knew I would love this flavor so I went in with high expectations. Aaaaaand I was not disappointed. I love this one too. It does not have as many chocolate chunks (not even close if I really think about it) as the cookie dough flavor but it’s still really good.
In other food news, I hung out with my BFF yesterday. We hit up a drive-through for lunch and since I was the passenger I was able to enjoy all the ‘stray fries’ on the way home…
Stray fries are fries that are just in the bag and not in an individual packet of fries and therefore are my fries because they would be homeless and lost without me eating them. I’m doing a good thing by saving them from a cold, lonely death in the bottom of the bag.
I was up near LA for a funeral so I stopped at my parents’ house and hung out there for a bit too.
Bonnie is my shadow and I love it.
