Mas o Menos

Sunday Brunch at Masa was delicious.  However my order was, ehhh “mas o menos.”
My family and Jared’s made plans to share a morning meal!

My parents and Jared’s parents were introduced for the first time.  After meeting and greeting, we shared a basket of sweet corn bread.  OMG, so very tasty!

My mom ordered a Mimosa and [...]

Sportello

I was really excited to make reservations at Sportello for dinner in Saturday night.  Sportello is on Congress Street in Southie, close to the Waterfront area.

We arrived 30 minutes before our scheduled reservation, thinking we’d grab a drink at the bar.  Sportello doesn’t have a bar area so we were directed downstairs to Drink.  Drink [...]

Quick, rewind to Friday afternoon….

I used my leftover Chicken Picatta in a veggie-filled salad.

I snacked an a healthy bar.
I was feeling pretty sore from Body Pump so my gym time consisted of 15 sweaty minutes in the sauna.  I’m not making any excuses.  It was a much needed day off!

I always want to be comfortable [...]

Belgian Pale Ale Tasting

I’m going to miss Body Pump 72.  This final week definitely worked my muscles.  My poor mom sliced her thumb while changing the weights on her bar and missed half of the bicep track to go get a band aid.  Despite the minor injury, I’m really proud that my mom increased her weight for a [...]

Saratoga Springs

As I’m posting on February 21st, I need to pause to say…
Happy Birthday Jared!!!
Now back to my regularly scheduled post…

Jared and I got to Saratoga on Saturday afternoon, a few hours later than planned.  We had just enough time to grab sandwiches from Panera on the way to the rink to watch my brother’s senior [...]

The Franklin

I needed a Green Super Food protein bar to make it through my Friday afternoon at work.
I was rushed when I got home and didn’t get to my OnDemand yoga.  But don’t worry, I will respond to comments and let you know what workouts I enjoy. 

We had a group dinner at the Franklin [...]

Training Day #1

I ate vanilla Chobani and trail mix when I got to the office.

I brought a leftover cheeseburger for lunch.  I ate the burger with baby carrots on the side.
Today was officially Training Day #1 for the Willow Tree Half Marathon.  12 weeks to go!  I used this training schedule to create something that would fit [...]

Grezzo

Wow I have a lot to recap in one post.  Lots of photos to enjoy!

I snacked on a bag of cheddar Pop Chips at the end of work on Friday.  Yum:  healthier than regular chips and MUCH tastier than anything of the “baked” variety.

Jared refused to walk further than 2 blocks for dinner.  Luckily Aquitaine [...]

When the Moon Hits Your Eye…

…Like a Big Pizza Pie!

After a quick lunch of mac and cheese, Jared went to a business meeting and I worked on further rest and relaxation.

We were both hungry for dinner at a much earlier time than usual.  We ordered a pizza from Upper Crust.  There’s a location a few blocks from our house so [...]

Pass the Salsa

Matt and Natalie have a gorgeous new home in South Boston!  We spent some time there having appetizers and drinks with friends before our large group headed down the street to Salsa’s.

We all chowed down on chips, salsa, and guac.  So good, and pretty spicy too!

I ordered chicken quesadillas, but was so full from the [...]
