Today is looking up! I just got the best delivery from my favorite Skinny Runner – watermelon cupcakes!!! She knows me.
But let’s back track for a moment to my run and eat this morning. I did 10 slow miles with my head movies and ipod as background music.
I really need to update my running playlist with my latest favorite songs! Right now it’s Stolen Dance. Anyone else love this one??
Pre-run: Banana and pb.
Post-run: Eggs, Sriracha, Bread, Blueberries. (I couldn’t decide between bagel thins and regular toast so I had both per the new bread rules.)
Lunch!
Right as I was finishing lunch I got a knock on my door from the infamous Skinny Runner – she brought me watermelon cupcakes because she knows I love watermelon and she knows I love cupcakes. And now I love her (I can be bought).
Then, we decided to take a walk to work off some of those cupcake calories. Marni tagged along.
At the end of our walk I got super excited to see the ice cream truck, but didn’t have any money. Boo. The ice cream man offered to give me an ice cream for free but I told him I had cupcakes at home and I couldn’t have both. I’m very reasonable like that (I write as I proceed to eat 4 cupcakes).
Question: When was the last time YOU had a cupcake?
When was the last time YOU had ice cream?
If it’s been more than 8 days, you’re doing it wrong.
Pippa says
It’s been SO LONG since I last had ice cream.
I need to seriously reevaluate my life.
Losing Lindy says
so sweet of her to bring you cupcakes
Elaine says
Gotta love that SR!
I’ve never even heard of watermelon cupcakes, but would love to know how she made those. My husband loves watermelon as much as you do!!
The last time we had cupcakes was between Thanksgiving/Christmas. I’ll make a batch and freeze them, then pull a couple out for us to have on weekends. Much better for us than making a cake, which we tend to eat non-stop till its gone.
Cori @ she's going the distance says
Just had DC cupcakes yesterday 🙂 so good!
Livi @ Eat, Pray, Work It Out says
I can’t remember the last time I had a cupcake…. #glutenfreeprobz
Kelly says
Those cupcakes are so cute! And I totally feel you on Stolen Dance, I’m obsessed.
Ash Bear says
Were they watermelon flavored or just decorated to look like watermelon? Not sure how i’d feel about watermelon flavored cupcakes 🙂
runeatrepeat says
The frosting was way way watermelon flavored – the cake was very mild watermelon.
Cari says
Love that song!
meredith @ The Cookie ChRUNicles says
I haven’t been back to Crumbs since they reopened. I think it’s time!
Sue says
Xmas! One of my wonderful client sent us Xmas cupcakes.
Daisy- Fit Wanderlust Runner says
I love cupcakes! Chocolate and red velvet cupcakes to be exact. BTW you look like you’ve lost weight in these pictures. Keep up the good work or if it’s due to stress…hope things get better soon.
sally @ sweat out the small stuff says
ice cream: last night. I rode out the blizzard with my boyfriend and a pint of Ben N Jerry’s Vanilla, caramel fudge =)
cupcake? hmm….not in the last 8 days? I better rectify that tomorrow!
Tara @ Living Light says
Far too long!!! I’m on a sugar detox but pretty sure those cupcakes are more like fruit….
C says
Your lunch looks AMAZZING!!! ANd I had ice cream for my lunch 😉
runeatrepeat says
Funny, I was just talking about having ice cream for dinner 🙂
Flower says
Red Velvet Cupcakes last Thursday nite and ice cream….every nite. Is that bad? I don’t cur!
Amy @ Mama Running for God says
Those cupcakes look so good!!! I had ice cream last night actually. The kids made root beer floats 🙂 I haven’t had a cupcake for a good while though.
Cheri @ Overactive Blogger says
Gah could not tell you the last time I had a cupcake because once I get started I can’t stop…I just can’t have the stuff in the house!
Erin @ Erin's Inside Job says
If gelato counts, I had it Saturday night. Fantastic. Since moving to Chicago, it appears that cupcakes are not as big of a thing as they were in Virginia. That means that the last time I had a cupcake was months ago. If you ask me about donuts though, that’s a whole other story.
Megan @ Skinny Fitalicious says
I make healthy muffins every week. Do those count as cupcakes? What’s the difference between a cupcake and muffin anyway? Gotta be the frosting.
Marie at the Lazy W says
Sounds like a stellar day! Love head movies. Love gorgeous weather. Love friends who know what treats to share.
Last time I had a cupcake might have been a couple of months ago at book club? Agreed, too long. Same for ice cream. I may need to run to the store since I doubt Skinny Runner makes rural Oklahoma deliveries.

Ashley @ Saving Money in your Twenties says
I haven’t had a cupcake in foreverrrr but I had froyo sunday night! Those watermelon cupcakes are seriously so cute 🙂
Nona @ RunningHigh says
I’m not a cake fan, but I have ice cream daily! So, it evens out.
stacy @ Sweating Tulipz says
I love cupcakes! I haven’t had one in forever…I think August (my wedding anniversary-and we froze cupcakes to share each year…)that is like a sin! But I’m not sure what I am jealous of more…those watermelon cupcakes that look to die for or the weather you were walking in a tanktop in! Gahhh! It looks beautiful there! Totally jelly! What a great friendship you girls have! So awesome!
Linda @ TheFitty says
To have runner/fitblr friends near you is like heaven.
Moving next to you now brb 😉
Alisha @ Real Girl Running says
I haven’t had a cupcake in awhile, but I had frozen yoghurt 3 days ago – does that count?? I like to do things right 😛
Shannon in Tustin says
I am absolutely doing it wrong on both counts! :'(

Aine @ Awkward Irish Girl Blogs says
I actually don’t really like cupcakes that much! I just don’t really like cakey things :/ And as for ice cream, I’m lactose intolerant.
I’m much more of a brownies/cookies/banana bread/chocolate/toffee girl 🙂 Last time I had any of those was before starting my Whole 30, but chocolate will be back in my life from next Monday onwards!
Shannon in Tustin says
I’m doing a Whole30 too! My second…my day 30 is Friday. 🙂
Becky @ Ok, so here's the plan says
It’s probably been a couple of months since I had a cupcake. That’s not right! I had ice cream a few days ago though! 🙂
