Stay-cation Day 4: 8 Years

Tuesday, July 27, 2010

A really wonderful day.

A perfect day for an anniversary.

Can you guess what our gifts are?

Kimm is going to get a wheelbarrow!  She’s been wanting one for a long time.

I’m going to get a laptop cooling pad.  That way my lap doesn’t get to be 100 degrees while I’m on the computer!

The day started as usual–a walk with Izzy and coffee.

Lunch included some fresh from the garden produce (green beans and cherry tomatoes)–I chopped them up, added some red and green pepper and our last avocado, mixed with a garlic mustard vinaigrette.  Tasty, especially paired with a veggie burger.

Can you tell I like ketchup? 🙂

A trip to the library ensued.  Supposed to be air-conditioned but it was hotter than heck.  So quickly headed home.

Dinner was our old standby–The Olive Garden.  We always get the same thing–salad, breadsticks with Alfredo dipping sauce, 5-Cheese Ziti, and Lemon Cream cake for dessert…plus we added in a glass of white reisling wine this time.  Yummy, plus leftovers for tomorrow.

A nap (lovely!)….and then…

Barnes and Noble!

We joint purchased a book–Jillian Michael’s Master Your Metabolism.  And then ended the night with Mocha Coconut Frappacinos.

Back to eating healthy tomorrow 🙂

Bed is going to feel so nice.
