Bullet Style Post for 1.12.11

• It’s going to be a quiet day at work today which is absolutely amazing. I have some things that I need to catch up on and this is the perfect time to do so!

• Shredded it out again last night with Jillian. My leg still feels funny (aka hurts.. A LOT) from the Yoga Meltdown accident. I decided that I should lay off the running until the beginning of next week to try and let this thing heal.

• We were supposed to get a ton of snow last night/this morning. Maybe I am already desensitized to living in New York, but 8 inches?! Are you serious?! That’s all that the “big storm” was up for? Lame. Although I do now realize why God led me to buy all of those pairs of “rain” boots. Trekking through the 8 inches of snow on uncleared sidewalks is a lot more pleasant when my toes are covered by the protective rubber of rain boots. In addition, the Hunter cream cable knit boot liners “Santa” gifted me for Christmas are seriously amazing. My toes are toasty and the cable knit fold over at the top is just too cute.

• I know I mentioned we have that free trial of Netflix?! Well can I just say that I am OBSESSED with the TV series Friday Night Lights!?! I’ve watched instant episodes (starting from the beginning of course) every chance I can get. I am officially addicted.

• M.’s sister is coming for a visit this weekend! It will be so fun to all hang out (M. will be here too of course) and trek around the city. I’m starting to get used to this freezing cold weather so being out and about doesn’t bother me all that much. I’m making homemade lasagna and rolls for Friday night when she flies in and I’m also thinking about trying out a new pound cake recipe! That means I’m headed to the grocery store tonight!

• I’ve done amazingly well (patting myself on the back here) sticking to eating healthy since being back from Christmas vacation, but I am dying to make some cookies (and of course I did have a piece of that Baked Alaska for M.’s birthday). There’s a possibility that I might also make some of those cookies this weekend (of course half plain chocolate chip for M.) In addition, all of these cold nights have me craving chili and cornbread – cornbread with butter and honey….yum. And….right now I’m eating an orange. HA!

Yay for the week already half way through! :)
