CHRISTMAS!!!!!!!
At least, at Starbucks it is. You can imagine my excitement when I walked in to get my coffee yesterday afternoon and all of this was happening!
"Look at me. I'm making Christmas happen. I am essentially responsible for bringing you Christmas. You're welcome."
Christmas tumblers!!
And decorations!
It all just makes me soooo happy! I know, I know, I’m a total sucker for this time of year. Before I left for Starbucks, I put Winnie and Clem outside and for a total change, they decided to be super cute.
All that cuteness must be tiring.
I also had not been able to get roasted sweet potatoes off my mind since I kept reading about them on Carrots N Cake, so I made some for myself and they were oh so delicious.
Misting of olive oil, salt, pepper, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice. 400 for approx 30 minutes. Yum
And then later in the day, this happened
An apple slicer apparently doesn't stand a chance against the honey crisp!
I seriously just looked at the apple so confused for a good minute before deciding I had to figure out how to salvage it because it was the last honey crisp in my house and they are so delicious!
In other news, I have accomplished pretty much nothing exercise wise since Saturday. I feel just barely better than yesterday, so I’m just trying to wait it out and not make myself sicker. I’m planning to hopefully do a short run tomorrow, but at the very least be back to spin on Thursday, I have a long run with Nicole on Friday (YAY!!!) and the Undy 5000 with Nicole, Mariel and *hopefully* Kara if her ankle is back to normal on Saturday!
And lastly, I can’t talk about exactly what it is yet, but our family did get some pretty fantastic and exciting news yesterday!! I can’t wait to be able to actually share it when it all becomes official! 🙂 Have a good day everyone!
I love the Christmas tumblers… might have to go grab one 😉
I have really been loving sweet potato too!
Yay for your fun news! Hope you have a great day!!
Hooray for Christmas! Just the red Starbucks cups alone put me in the holiday spirit!
I’m excited for our two runs this week! I’m crossing my fingers that my replacement ipod will be in before the Friday run! 🙂
And yay for exciting news!
I heart Christmas time! I’m actually thinking of putting up my decorations this weekend. Too soon? I don’t think so!
Love Christmas. Love Starbucks. And spontaneous acts of togetherness. LOVE IT!! 🙂
