Happy Monday!
I hope you all had an amazing weekend no matter what you were doing.
My weekend involved lots of this:
Prepping for my upcoming certification weekend is fun, but I am still getting nervous. I just want the weekend to be here NOW! 🙂
I made a BIG pot of chicken noodle soup for my little sister. She actually lives a couple of blocks away from me and is getting over strep throat. She told me the soup would make her feel better, and I couldn’t say no to the request! I pulled out our Le Cruiset for the very first time (it was a wedding gift!) and I love it. I can’t wait to make more soups in it.
I threw every veggie we own into a bowl and called it dinner. Yum!
Sunday morning started with my final long run in my half marathon training. I can’t believe how fast I ran those twelve miles…sometimes the body is just amazing. I am very happy with the pace I was able to maintain and will post a training recap post later this week.
After my 12 mile run, I made a loaf of Julie’s (Peanut Butter Fingers) Pumpkin Banana Loaf for Brian and I had to sample a piece…Boy is that stuff good!
Nothing too exciting happening at the Rochford residence, but still a great weekend.
Now it’s Your Turn:
- Share something fun/exciting/anything from your weekend!
