Hi lovelies. How was your weekend? Mine was great; it can be best described as “cozy”. It’s as if I tried my best to define the word by how I lived out my weekend. I’m pretty happy with how it turned out. Here’s a recap:
Friday night was date night 🙂 Craig & I went to our favorite sushi place in Charlotte. I got a glass of malbec and he got a beer, and we split these delicious rolls.
Just looking at that picture makes me need this again right now.
After dinner we came home and watched the newest Jason Bourne movie. (I also ate my last two snickerdoodle cookies.) I love the other Matt Damon Bourne movies (not so much the Jeremy Renner one) and this one was just OK compared to the others I thought.
Saturday morning I woke up without an alarm around 8am and got up, had some coffee and my pre-run breakfast of gluten-free toast w/ peanut butter, put on approximately 37 layers of clothes to run in the frigid temps and set out on my way. 4 miles later I was back home and ready for the world’s hottest shower! Ha.
Spent the day in this cozy sweater (sharing my top 5 favorite sweaters on the blog tomorrow!) and relaxed, wrapped Christmas presents, etc.
I also made a delicious sangria recipe that I will be sharing on the blog this week too! Stick around for that, it’s perfect for the holidays!
Saturday night we went and got drinks with some friends of ours. We sat in huge leather chairs and talked for a few hours next to this gorg Christmas tree.
*I’m making a mental note to add a ribbon to my tree next year!*
Sunday morning included copious amounts of coffee, Christmas lights & the fireplace, Elf on TV, and this bowl of cinnamon sugar oatmeal goodness.
This recipe will also be coming to the blog soon. It’s so yummy.
Sunday was much of the same as Saturday what with the fire going and all that, plus lots of football on the TV. Sundays are my rest days and I soak up every minute of them! Sometimes I like to go on a walk and sometimes I like to stay on the couch. Just depends on how my body is feeling that day. Gotta listen to your bod & give it what it needs!
That’s pretty much my weekend in a nutshell. If you don’t already, be sure to go follow me on Instagram and check out this post below to enter to win a MacBook Pro 🙂
That’s all for now! Have a great night!
xo,
Bess
