Hit up the farmer’s market
Purchased what was described to me as the “best and healthiest scone ever” (it was good. not sure about healthy but really, who eats a scone to be healthy?)
Celebrated the end of a Saturday workday with a margarita
And dined al fresco at Bad Daddy’s with a fellow RD!
Purchased a new pair of work shoes (Brooks Adrenaline GTS 15)
Browsed Southpark Mall for things I probably don’t need
Played with this little G
Wore my new shoes to work on Sunday and they were cool
The end 
In case you’re wondering about the shoes, I ended up impulsively stopping at Dick’s 15 minutes before they closed the other night and decided to get the newest Adrenalines. They fit differently than previous versions but I sized up 1/2 size and I don’t think I’ll have any issues (esp since I’m not actually running in them). I wore them all day yesterday and they felt good. I typically go to the local running store for purchases like this, but they had already closed.
I have been working more weekends than usual lately because we have a vacancy in our department right now, but I have a 3-day weekend coming up so I’m pretty excited about that! In the meantime, I’ve been got a few house projects on my to-do list this week:
- putting together an Ikea nightstand… why I thought this was a project I wanted to take on, I’m not sure
- chalk painting a picture frame
- hanging some DIY wall art <—will be sure to share the final product with you
I feel like the Ikea nightstand may not end very well but I’m looking forward to the other two projects! I will be sure to share the finished products with you. And if you would like to share any tips for putting together Ikea stuff without going crazy then I’d love to hear them, haha.
How was your weekend?
What’s going on with you this week?
Such a fun weekend! I love a good farmer’s market… nothing beats fresh produce. Scones are my go to treat… I’ve been known to snack (inhale) one or two while grocery shopping on Sundays : ) Hope you have a fabulous week!
Scones are definitely pretty tasty :)
Which farmer’s market do you go to? The one in Rock Hill is cute, but very small. Also, thanks for the reminder about Big Daddy’s- I seriously need to try it!
I’ll be honest… I’m not a huge fan of Bad Daddy’s if you’re not getting an actual burger. I’ve gotten their salads and grilled chicken sandwiches a lot and they are not that great. But their burgers are fantastic!
Ooooh pretty new shoes! That’s interesting that they didn’t fit the same as they normally do. Now I’m nervous about buying my next pair. Instead of just ordering them in bulk online I’ll need to try a pair on first.
Hope you plan something nice and relaxing or super fun for your three day weekend!
So for running, you might want to either think about skipping the GTS 15 and waiting for the 16s or buying a pair to try out before you order them in bulk. They have gotten some bad reviews online. I actually tried them on back in March at my LRS before I ended up with my Mizunos. They told me they had gotten a lot of complaints about the shoe that it was cut differently and recommended sizing up 1/2 size. I read some reviews on zappos the other night and kind of got that same feedback. I figured they would be fine for work, though, since they are still a stability shoe.
Oh, sweet potato fries. They will be a part of my last meal on earth, thank you very much.
