Weekend Memories Monday

Okay, so this post totally started out as a “Six Thing Sunday” post, but then Sunday just slipped right away from me.  And I also accumulated more than 6 things, so really that wouldn’t have worked anyways.

I had plans to see Harry Potter on Friday night, but plans fell through 😦  To say I was bummed would be a huge understatement.  But there were definitely some other highlights.

1. Ice cream sharing in downtown Louisville.

When in doubt, always always go with chocolate chip cookie dough. 

We tried out Sweet Cow and left with happy taste buds and a Sweet Cow tattoo, score!

I wish I could transport you all to Louisville for a few minutes.  It’s the cutest town and I think I totally took for granted that I grew up there.

2. Breakfast at the Farmers’ Market.

I wish this plate was more photogenic, since I eat it so often.

Scrambleds, polenta, puttanesca and focaccia. <— I wish I didn’t have to look at the spelling for so many Italian words.  And no, scrambleds is not an Italian word.  Or even a word at all.

Fact: Breakfast tastes better when it’s on Dad.

3. Crazy FM produce.

Fact: It’s incredibly hard to not buy odd colored produce “just because.”  I’m glad I resisted and my wallet is too.

I ended up with some onions, corn, cauliflower, yellow squash and some patty pan squash, which were too adorable to resist.

And now for a segment I like to call “Pictures taken in my car” or “Pictures of me holding something.”  I hope you enjoy.

4. Tree of Life = weirdest movie ever.

Have you seen the previews for this movie?  It’s Brad Pitt and Sean Penn and that’s all I needed to know.  I was sold.  I really wish I could tell you what it was about or whether I even liked it, but I’m still scratching my head on this one. 

However, I do know that visually, this movie was astounding!

5. Lunch at the giant Boulder Whole Foods.

Vegetarian Banh Mi wrap.  Tofu sounded good, but in reality it wasn’t all that great.

But I did stock up on raisins, so I guess the annoying adventure through the parking lot was worth it.

“It’s getting real in the Whole Foods parking lot.”

6. This is what your iPod looks like if you knock it off the treadmill mid-run.

I’d like to explain how it ended up wedged in the machine, but I don’t know the proper names for treadmill parts and I fear talking about “the spinning part” and “that side piece” will just confuse everyone.

And to think I always thought that case was such a waste of money.

7. Kombucha treat.

Must grocery shopping make me so parched?

8. This is necessary if you want to put your Kombucha in your parents’ fridge.

It worked.

9. Long run this week was a 5-miler.

And I totally JUST took that picture.

Never underestimate the peace of mind that comes with an early morning solo run. 

I’m going to go ahead and call this one of my favorite runs ever.  I did not expect it to feel easy and was pleasantly surprised when it did! 

LOVE.

And that concludes my weekend memory recap.  This week I’ve got my mom’s birthday, packing, paint color picking and all the “fun” stuff that comes with moving.
