It was another Friday night church night for these peeps. I love doing this with Billy, it is something that brings us so much closer together and I LOVE working on my spiritual health!
Yes, those are my shoes on the sidewalk. Although in real life I don’t mind wearing my 5 inch heals and being taller than Billy, I do not like to be taller than him in pictures.
We got home at about 7:30 and we were starving. It had been at least three hours since I had last eaten and that is known as a code red. Bad things happen when my blood sugar gets low.
A Friday night tradition at my in-laws is to eat eggs for dinner. No complaining here. Billy started doing his froaching method and putting cheese on top for egg sandwiches.
Leftover waffles have been staring at me all week in the fridge and so I HAD to have one with a side of two cheesy froached eggs. Don’t worry I moved the eggs to a separate plate so that I could smother them in ketchup right after the picture.
A few hours later and I continuued my sugar themed, fruit heaven for dessert. Don’t worry mom, I ate a boatload of vegetables for bfast and lunch and thought I would overdose if I included them at night too.
There is chocolate pudding down there somewhere.
Billy got all fancy (after watching an episode of Chopped) and whipped his pudding with whipped cream to make a mousse. He thinks he is sooooo cool.
You know what is cool? Sitting on the couch, icing your shins, watching So You Think You Can Dance while sporting an awesome sunglass tan line in an old triathalon race shirt.
Charlie loves to lick my feet after I put lotion on them. I guess Bath and Body’s vanilla lotion tastes as good as it smells…good to know for future Code Red situations.
————————————————————————————–
What is your FAVORITE flavor (scent) of lotion?
-Bath and Body’s vanilla is AMAZING!!!
What is your husband/boyfriend/significant other/good friend’s SIGNATURE cooking/baking item?
-Billy rocks at making eggs and also ANYTHING on the grill.
Do you have a special food any certain day of the week….ie taco tuesday’s or pizza on Friday nights?
-Billy and I used to ALWAYS have homemade pizza on Thursdays….I think I need to start that up again!!!
Anyone sore from a KILLER run, workoout, lifting session?!?!
-My BUNS are screaming at me for making them do a pump class (including 500 squats, okay that is probably an exaggeration) after spin.
Abram is really good at making homemade meatballs (my family’s recipe) but he is still really good at it! Sundays tradition is always eggs for him, I eat whatever I am in the mood for! My side ab’s are killing me from my OnDemand 6-pack ab workout from this past Wednesday!!! OUCH. Love it though :)
Billy is a sexy sexy spud. You are a lucky girl! :)
HA I TOTALLY AGREE!!!!
Pizza on Fridays! I think I eat it for every meal of the day on Friday.
I love Bath & Body Work’s Freesia. They don’t sell it in the store anymore, so I have to buy it online!
I think my favorite scent is coconut!
My husband also make the perfect eggs!
I love that of you picture! It resembles lots of my Friday/Saturday nights & made me smile.
My bf’s claim to fame is stir fry with all fresh veggies, yummmmm.
This is going to sound uber lame – but my husband makes only one thing. White rice. But it’s reeeaalllly good. Like the pillowy, perfect rice you get at Japanese restaurants. That is his only talent besides working the microwave buttons.
Pretty pink toes, btw!
I love bath and body works coconut lime verbana! It smells like a beach vacation :). Chris makes a mean pot of chili..yum!
Oh my god. I am so sore from the Tabata TNT workout from Thursday. Rememeber that happy froyo picture? That only happened once I was out of Tabata TNT hell.
Can I just say that it’s AWESOME you are open about going to church and being spiritual? I love it, not many people would be honest enough to talk about it in a public forum. I applaud you. I sometimes find it hard to blog about it, and it’s a huge part of my life.
-Vanilla, or Lavendar. I love the aromatherapy line from B&B Works
-My hubs is really good at opening cans! Thanks babe! You’re the best :)
-We take TACO TUESDAY for serious
-I’m always hurtin’, I have some killah shin splints and am icing too! TWINKIES! My eyelids are sore from sleeping so much last night.
My husband can do popcorn real well. And, that’s about it ;) haha
hahaha i love you!
ryan is the bombb at making egg sandwiches. they are a clutch meal
soso sore from running 6.2miles yesterdayyyy
but i love it:)
have a good weekend!!
Yay for church! One of my favorite things is going to church with Brandon. :)
Brandon does not have a signature cooking item. Oh wait, that’s not true. Kraft Mac and Cheese. Yep, the stuff in the blue box. He has a very specific way that he has to make it, or else he doesn’t think it tastes quite right. ;)
And he makes a mean re-heated takeout pizza. :P
So, so glad that Billy had a great bday!!! How could he not with all the spoiling (fried ice cream!!!) you gave him :)
Favorite lotion for me is The Body Shop, white musk. It does an amazing job of covering any post-workout odors!!!
We have taco tuesdays and homemade pizza fridays- my kids revolt if these don’t take place. And I don’t know if it will become a regular thing but my 8 year old wants a “flamingo” dinner after seeing them at the Monterey Aquarium. We will be eating only PINK foods, standing on one leg and using ONLY our mouths…hahaha! Send me your pink food ideas!!!
Sore quads and shoulders from a P90X workout yesterday and I’m officially up to 3 miles on my return to running plan. Praying for your shin splints too- you’ll be back before you know it!!!
Pizza is always on Fridays! But I could seriously eat pizza every day of the week!!
I am currently sitting here reading your cute post dripping in sweat from a horrible 6 mile run that turned into a full mile of walking because I slept in and its stupid hot outside now.
I am SO sorry about your awful run……girl, I cannot run in the heat. Your next run will be AMAZING and it’s those bad runs that make the good ones so awesome!
Thanks :) I feel better now, but I was mad when I finished that “run”!! I should just pretend it didn’t happen and try again tomorrow, earlier! I can’t wait for fall weather!!
Love B&BW’s Cotton Fields (or something like that) for casual and then anything by Marc Jacobs for going out.
Ok..I have to ask where you got those cool icing things for your shins. I did my first tri this morning and am now sitting here icing my shins with bags of boring ice that keep falling off. :) Stress fractures suck!
CONGRATS ON YOUR FIRST TRI!!! YOU ARE AMAZING!!! Seriously, you go girl! The ice things are my in-laws and they are made for BASEBALL…to ice your arm. They don’t remember where they got them but I would check out baseball gear or something online or in a sporting good store. Hope that helps!
thank you tons for your kind words in response to my comment yesterday, it made me smile before I headed out for my run this morning…i’ll totally send you an email going more into detail about my story if you dont mind me babbling on and on (i tend to do that sometimes, my boyfriend finds it to be an endearing quality in me, at least *I* like to think that hahaha!)
my fave scent is the forever sunshine by bath and body works, loves it!
13 miler kicked my buns this morning…mostly bc I was lazy and woke up at 8 a.m. and had to do it in 85 degree weather..def have to down 3 gallons of water today to make up for the 5 gallons of sweat I lost…very sexy, I know :)
85 degree weather…girl you are AMAZING!! Drink that water and I would LOVE a detailed email from you pretty please!
I think I eat pizza multiple times a week cause I love it! I would marry it but my husband may have an issue with that…
scents: vanilla in the winter/fall and coconut in summer/spring
growing up we did home made pizza fridays :) now every sunday in pancake sunday!
Sunday pancake day is the BEST!! Agreed….coconut in the summer/spring is the absolute BEST!!
My husband makes a mean fried egg sandwich!! I need tontry froached eggs!
My body is sore everywhere from a circuit workout I did on Wednesday!!! I may have over done it!!
I ice my feet after workouts now, so no big deal hanging out with ice packs ;)
My hubby makes the best risotto and chicken fingers. YUMMY! I love breakfast at night and Billy’s eggs look delicious.
I’m with Charlie on the vanilla lotion!
PINK Fresh and Clean for VS is my favorite! I’m sore from a 14 mile run this morning and ready for a nap! Hadn’t gone longer than 10 in awhile.
We have crockpot Sunday dinners since we don’t get home from church until 6! It’s usually a different thing every Sunday though. Maybe we should start Taco Tuesdays though!
My hubby’s signature kitchen move is strawberry shakes mmmm…
I used to like Victoria’s Secret Strawberries and champagne lotion, but I am kind of sick of it, my hubby loves when I wear vanilla..
and I am feeling pretty darn sore from doing a half marathon this morning I think I will be on my couch for the rest of the day; someone send over a maid.
Vanilla is the best scent, hands down!! Oh, and that pudding concoction looks amazing…I wish I had some sort of imagination when it comes to desserts.
breakfast for dinner may be the best meal ever. the bf does not cook…but thats okay because he fixes things and has common sense…neither of which I would say that I excel at ;)
Man…I am really missing pump…I just need TO GO to a new class but I am being all chicken about it. Although…not sure 500 squats is making me “that” excited to go. haha!
Oh friend. I just miss you! OH! I gave your name to the Active Bands lady (my friend Frances)…she is still trying to promote her business and told her that you may be interested in a giveaway. I HOPE that she contacts you. She is the sweetest girl ever and I am obsessed with her headbands. She lives in PG, Utah!
Have a wonderful weekend!
Ok, so get this…I AM sore. But it’s not from working out. It’s from work. I have the bruise the size of my stomach (which is pretty big) on my right calf. So every time my right foot hit the ground today on my run, my calf burned. It’s really quite attractive. A bruise the size of your whole calf is cool, right? I’ll just tell people my husband beats me and see how that goes over with others. KIDDING!
My hubby’s a great grilling, too. I wish he knew how to do a bit more…I think we need to enroll in a cooking class together.
My fam did Chinese on Friday nights a loooooong time ago. And I actually got sick of chinese for a while because of that. I think I would like to start something like that with the hubby…pizza night sounds good! My husband would eat it everyday I swear to you
Awesome for you working on spiritual health. When my spirit is nourished it is so much easier to take care of my physical and mental health.
My hubby is great at grilling and making chicken fried chicken.
I just got back from vacation and did a long run in the blistering Texas heat. I am now sitting on the sofa icing my foot while my hubby makes breakfast burritos for dinner. So worth it to get my body moving again.
Connor is good at dipping pretzels into pb and vanilla yogurt with me ;)
I love cheesy little girl scents like cotton candy or cupcake, etc.. haha
I ran 14 miles on the treadmill this morning, but I’m not too sore! *today, at least!* :)
<3 Haley
I LOVE anything by Burt’s Bee’s, so basically any lotion they put out is something I will gladly slather over my body…
Boyfriend makes a killer pasta primavera! it was one of the first things he cooked for me and it was soooooo good that we have it still!
My legs are super sore from a combo of upping my running time + having moved to a city where I walk an average of 4 miles a day. I’ve been stretching after every walk or run, but I still am feeling some tenderness in my shins and my feet are quite throbby. Sigh!
Those waffles are calling my name! Mmmm. I’m sore today for sure from some workouts the past several days. Today was a rest day…but I stood on my feet for like 9 hours at work, so my feet are sore! Billy is going massage them. :)
I had a killer run today… ran a 1:38:18 half marathon (a 26 minute PR). I won my age division and took fourth female overall. it was a blast!
AHHHH GIRL, you are my hero!! a 26 minute PR….WOW!!! YOU GO GIRL!!! I am going over to your blog right now to read about it!!!
I like non-scented lotion, weirdly. I always spray perfume so I don’t want it to interfere!
My boyfriend is the griller. I don’t do it. I’ll prep everything and anything but I don’t really do the grill!
We always eat pizza on Sundays. It’s our cheat day and pizza is our favorite food. It’s sad for more than one reason. A. We can seriously eat like 10,000 calories on this day. B. I say WE because I eat just as much as a 185 pound built male.
I am SUPER sore from squats and deadlifts yesterday. I haven’t done them in like 3 weeks so my legs are really confused.
Lastly, you have nice feet for a runner. Is that weird? Why are my feet all messed up from running? Lol.. I have terrible problems w/ toenails and calluses and…eww i’ll stop!!
Craig is the best at cooking anything to do with meat, roasting a chicken, ribs, you name it! Usually on Saturdays we eat crab legs, we lost the tradition for a while but had them tonight! I am loving the ice wear on your shins-nothing like icing those shins.
- favorite scent of lotion… scentless? haha i’m boring but really i’ve never been one of those bath & body works kinda girls
- boyfriend’s signature dish: enchilada casserole
- sore? YES!! kayaking in McCovey Cove outside of the SF Giants Ballpark. gnarly fighting the wind while kayaking!! my back muscles ACHE
I read that you’ve been dealing with shin splints and I DEFINITELY feel your pain! I’ve had them since January (!!!) and have had to bow out of two half-marathons and now a couple months of running. I started physical therapy last week and he told me something interesting that I also noticed about you – shin splints can be caused in part when your second toe is longer than your big toe! He gave me some strengthening exercises to do, which I’d be happy to share if you’re interested! Hope they get better soon :-)
Bryan is amazing at making french toast, he even has a secret ingredient (which I found out is Vanilla). YUM!
I usually eat french toast and omlettes on the weekends- but no special dinner themes. Sounds fun though!
Ahh I love anything vanilla or coconut! It reminds me of VACATION!
I know it sounds weir but Dean makes the most perfect grilled cheese sandwiches! They are grilled to perfection. He also just made a really awesome tomato and herb pasta sauce. YUM.
We used to have “Fresh Fridays” because we always used to go to a restaurant called Fresh on Fridays ha. Now we go on any day of the week since we are off for the summer so it doesn’t really work!
I am totally sore. Today I ran a 10K race, lifted with Dean at the gym after, and then went for a bike ride (to get ice cream).
Do you REALLY have to wear a white shirt under a discreet dress to your Mormon church?
I’m sore from setting a 5k PR yesterday (Saturday) woohoo!
My husbands signature meal involves corn tortillas, refried beans, butter, cheese, salt and a microwave. I do not partake.
Mike’s signature dish is omelets and really anything with eggs. He made us scrambled for lunch today!
Ah! I totally know what you mean about pictures with your husband! My hubby and I are almost the same height (maybe off by an inch), and I almost always wear flats (wore them at our wedding) because I don’t like being taller than him. Most days. ;)
Ewww!! ketchup on eggs. lol
