This week I’ve cooked no new recipes or done anything exceptional or interesting AND that is totally ok. With quarter grades due and being sick, this week has not allowed for a lot of outside fun. Thankfully I’m busy working on my #100happydays challenge. It’s helping me appreciate the simple things in life more.

{#1-Good Food}

I did accomplish meal planning and grocery shopping (I try to follow these grocery shopping tips) on Sunday because I know the above is too true. Case in point, sitting on our counter we had some left over cookies used in a recipe I made for a friend’s baby shower. I don’t even like this particular sweet treat and would never buy it in the store for myself, yet I found myself eating these stupid cookies this week just because they were there and the only sweets in our house. Anyone else ever done this too?

{#2-Run to Start Your Weekend}

With warmer temps in the forecast, an almost entirely feeling better foot, and hoping this awful cold clears out, I have some serious miles on the docket for the weekend. Just as I thought I’d make it through this winter without getting a cold, I’m run down with congested lungs, a nose like Rudolph and farmer blowing green lugies on runs. Sexy!

{#3-Fan Signs}

After a rough long run for both Ryan and I last Sunday we both felt the message in this sign when thinking about the Wisconsin Marathon (only a month away-eek!). Here’s to hoping we feel differently this weekend.

{#4-Daydreaming}

As winter hangs on like no other, I find myself daydreaming of our road trip more and more. Anyone been West and have a must see location, must take hike route, or other necessary details to share?

{#5-Sandy Beaches}

No kidding! I can’t wait for spring and summer to be here. Like really be here. Not according to the calendar, but the weather. Until then I’ll be daydreaming away.

What are you daydreaming about?

Happy Weekend!
