Silent Saturday Except it’s Matt’s Birthday and also it’s not silent

Happy Weekend!

Yesterday I did a little shopping action for a holiday party. I asked for a vote on Instagram and then went walking around to other stores and the vote winner = the black & white one was gone. #FAIL

dress picks

Luckily my Costco faves were all in stock Winking smile

I just realized this was supposed to be a silent Saturday and here I am blabbing. It happens.

Saturday morning run:

Nothing says classy like a public bathroom selfie.

Food.

I think my hot rollers are dead. RIP rollers. It was fun while it lasted…

Your local Monican. Either my front facing camera really sucks or you’re drunk. Possibly both.

Today is my lil brother’s birthday! He is 13 – finally we can party together! #Jokes

I stopped by the cupcakery to get him a special birthday cupcake and spotted someone drinking an iced coffee. It occurred to me I haven’t tried Lee’s iced coffee, which is a tragedy so I went for it.

And my life will never be the same.

It is AMAZING. STRONG but smooth, just like I like it Winking smile

    I ran a 5k (ugly sweater run). I was so excited for a mason jar and a Christmas tree ornament! It made my day! Today was also a day of tamale making for my family. My grandma and I are still finishing up the last bit of it now (made 120lbs of masa). Tomorrow is a day of relaxation of visiting family.

    Happy Birthday to your little brother!! Hope he had a great day!!

    I’m almost done with my first week of half marathon training!

    Your brother is lucky to have someone who gets him such awesome cupcakes.

    I actually liked the red dress better!

    Resting and relaxing! That’s the motto of my weekend. I do plan to get a little housework done but it’s not a priority 😉

    Great job on the run! I’m sorry they sold out of the dress – hope you find another one you like!
