Birthday/Super Bowl Weekend
Well, my birthday and superbowl weekend was marvelous. (Thanks for all the birthday wishes last week!)
Like I said, I put my birthday dinner off until Saturday night so that I could go get in a good workout Friday night – which did not disappoint. The workout was extra hard – I guess he was testing my old age.
Oh, and I can’t go without mentioning the awesome Chocolate & Wine gift basket thatTorrance’s step mom sent me!
Seriously, those chocolate covered pretzels are the best I’ve ever had. EV-ER.
After my workout we watched movies and downloaded a ton of new music. It was time to update our library. And on that note, it reminds me – a song that I am super-loving right now is:
Yeah, I love this song for some reason (Thrift Shop by Macklemore & Ryan Lewis). I was going to post the video… but it is just too ridiculous.
Sorry, side-tracked – back to the weekend stuff…. Saturday I actually went and did a little shopping. I have been on a mission to find some flat tan boots. All of my boots have heels but I have been wanting something casual, and finding comfy boots is always a project for me because I have giant calves.
It was a success, though they weren’t the exact color I was wanting, I couldn’t be too choosy.
Plain, "casual" Tees were also on my agenda, which I feel that American Eagle alway has the comfiest Tees.
After about an hour at the mall I was burnt out on all that business and headed home to get ready for dinner.
If you are wondering, I ate a delicious steak and it was everything I hoped and dreamed for.

Speaking of shoving my face, Superbowl Sunday was actually pretty mellow on the food front for me this year. Usually we have a feast, or go somewhere where there is a feast. But I kept things pretty under control this year.
Homemade guacamole, and black bean and chicken nachos! I also snacked on some cantaloupe (random?) and drank some beers.
I also have a secret, I think I am the only person who doesn’t looooove Beyonce. Honestly, I really am not a huge fan of hers, like I could take her or leave her.
And as far as commercials this year, obviously the Budweiser Clydesdale is a classic (the animal ones get me every time) but I loved the Doritos goat commercial. Simply because I have a soft spot for goats and a goat screaming is just hilarious.

- Best thing you ate this weekend?
- Do you ever drink beer?
Glad your birthday was great!! The guacamole looked amazing!!!!!!
Best thing I ate this weekend? I had mashed sweet potato with coconut milk – amazing. Oh and then the left over coconut milk was used for Pina Colada’s
I never ever drink beer. It tastes too “boyish” for me. wine is my favourite, followed by my fruity drinks (cosmos are my fav), then maybe a coolers.
Ps. I didn’t like, nor do I like Beyonce. I was quite disappointed.
I feel the same about Beyonce. I feel like she is just not all that relevant. Oh well. Her dance moves are pretty interesting. HA!
HAHA i laugh at her dancing all the time! dancing around in her stupid unitards/leotards/whatever
Ditto to Beyonce.
Also happy to hear about someone else who teared up with the Budweiser commercial. I didn’t actually see the commercial but heard the music and just knew it had to be sad. Monday morning I saw a quick clip of it and burst out in tears. Oh boy!
oh my gosh, too funny jessica that just the music made you sad!!
Totally not an upbeat song. I said, what is this commercial (I was in the kitchen) and was told the Clydesdale’s and I just new I’d turn to mush.
