Happy belated Easter/Passover!
I’m back in NYC after a fun Easter in NJ.
I made a tough decision of which hummus to pick from a display of basically hundreds. (Sabra Sun-Dried Tomato, if you were wondering.)
Ate salad AND pasta. (Linguine with white clam sauce.)
Dyed Easter Eggs.
Gave Bailey a bunny basket.
Ate eggs with mozzarella. Maybe not pretty, but delicious.
Drank mimosas.
Ate things in flaky pastry. (Pigs in a blanket and spanakopita.)
Paused for a doggie photoshoot.
“What are you doing?!”
I don’t even know.
After the appetizers came the spaghetti course, obviously. I went with whole wheat pasta with mine.
Usually, we take a very short break between the spaghetti course and every other course, but yesterday, we were absolutely stuffed, so we took a long break and a long walk. (In which I tricked my mom and Lacey into a longer walk.)
Round two involved Brussels sprouts with bacon and maple syrup.
A spinach salad with goat cheese, grape tomatoes and balsamic vinaigrette.
And half a sweet potato and chateaubriand. Which was all delicious and stuff…
But I was saving myself for this bunny ice cream cake.
And this morning, I miraculously was out of bed at 5:50 to run 4.5 miles with Ashley. I’m glad we’re living close to each other, because Ashley is definitely a morning exerciser, and I’m hoping we’ll have more morning workout dates.
Thank YOU for the run date! It wasn’t our fastest run together, by far, but it was exactly what I needed. Catching up, logging some miles, and enjoying a beautiful sunrise is perfect for a Monday morning! 🙂
God I love you for spelling “Chateaubriand” correctly. Thank you. <3 Grammar & Spelling <3 Glad you had a lovely Easter weekend! Hi Bailey!
@Ali: I mean, I did Google it, but still. Grammar is sexy.
hahaha i had to click out to comment on those ADORABLE pup shots! love love. and that cake looks pretty fantastic.. i am an ice cream whore.
I’m definitely a morning exerciser too – if you and Ashley ever run together on a Friday, Saturday, or Sunday, count me in!
(Because I’m guessing you don’t want to go at 3:45am on a Monday).
Ah so much hummus!
All of that food looks delish! Though the bunny cake looks a little odd. Glad you liked it!
Dude, can we talk about this Bunny Cake?? Where? When? How???
@Jocelyn: Dairy Queen!!!
That’s really a beautiful bunny cake!!! And I’d choose Sabra every time!
I got full just looking at the pictures. That bunny ice cream cake is like the cutest thing ever!
I love that your mimosas are basically a glass of champagne with a teeny tiny splash of OJ.
@Former Coworker Abby: Hi, have we met?
All of these pictures of food are making my mouth watered. I am glad that you had a good easter weekend. Most importantly awesome for the morning workout. I am starting back my working out afterwork no matter what routine today.
Love reading your blog! and your puppy is so cute. After reading your blog for months I’ve decided to finally start my own! Thanks for the inspiration! 🙂
