One of Those Mornings

You know those mornings when you just wake up on the right side of the bed, ready to conquer the day?

This morning was one of those mornings.  I knew that I wanted to wake up early today, so I set an alarm for 6am…but I woke up a little bit before my alarm naturally and I felt great!

After cleaning up the bathroom and tidying up some loose ends from the week, I started my day with a delicious egg white scramble.

In the mix:

  • Egg whites
  • 1 egg
  • Morningstar Farms sausage
  • Tomato
  • Onion
  • Jalapenos
  • Yellow Bell Pepper
  • Salsa
Seriously, these eggs completely hit the spot this morning.
Yesterday, totally flew by.  It was a busy day of teaching Body Pump, practicing the new release of Body Pump, grocery shopping, and doing some personal “work” stuff.
Friday night, though, was a blast!  Brian’s parents, Brian, me, and two of our friends (Caitlin and Dave) all went to Fire by the Monon for dinner.  It was a chilly, rainy, and very fall evening.  The perfect night to be filled with good food, tasty wine, and friends.
We have eaten at Fire by the Monon a couple of times in the past year, and I am always impressed by the delicious food, the friendly service and the welcoming atmosphere of the restaurant.
As we waited to be seated, we enjoyed a couple of glasses of delicious riesling.  I am not even sure what brand it was, but it was delicious and completely hit the spot after a long work week 😉
When the server listed the specials, all that I heard him mention was soft-shell crab.  As I placed my order, he corrected my request saying that it was a soft-shell crab sandwich…darn!  I was not in the mood for a sandwich so instead, I ordered the delicious cold smoked salmon with roasted veggies and sweet potatoes.  It was extremely delicious!

We had a great evening taking our time with dinner, laughing, talking, and just sharing each other’s company.  It was perfect!

Kate, Brian’s mom, surprised me on Saturday with a little treat.

I love everything about that mug!  It is pink, and mentions cooking…it is perfect for me 🙂

Today, I am going to do exactly what that mug recommends…keep calm, prepare for the week, and cook up a storm!

Hope you all have a great Sunday!
