Weekend Things
>> Thursday, September 5, 2013
Oh, yeah. Lots of frozen foods . . . and fitness. I forgot to mention that I'm swimming again. My bastardized breast stroke gets me a mile in just under 45 minutes, which I'm trying to do at least once a week. Especially now since Ada is tolerating gym childcare consistently! I've also added a bit of stationary cycling to my routine, 30 minutes at a time or so.
I train like a triathlete from time to time, but really don't see myself participating in a race. I don't know why. It's just not my scene. It's hard enough for me to remember my shoes let alone all that other gear!
// Gym Essentials //
My Garmin Forerunner 10 is working out great after some initial glitches.
I wear Merrell Gloves for my biking, lifting, and treadmill jogs. They make many other styles, too.
This gym duffle, albeit gigantic, is working out great to transport my stuff along with Ada's!
// Smart Stuff //
23 Things You Can Cook with a Waffle Iron (need more veggie recipes to add to that list!)
Pumpkin Punch Bowl -- great idea for fall parties!
$300 Underground Greenhouse -- seriously amazing!
// Good Eats //
One Pan Pasta via Martha Stewart

// Fall Favorites //
Finally jumping on the Oxford trend -- I like these saddle shoes.
Basics by American Apparel -- they're on sale, of course (you know me and my deals!)!
// Nesting //
Love this refrigerator file station, it's pretty + super organized.
We're actually in the process of making a faux brick wall for our living room inspired by this one.
I'd eventually like to fake some thick beams for some architectural flair. Who knows!
// This time. Last year(s). //
And here's what you may have missed this week on Writing Chapter Three:
- Summer Days -- They've faded to the beginning of fall. Here's a look back at summers in the past.
- In the Kitchen w/ my Toddler -- Baked doughnuts with my little helper's assistance.
- Ada Update, 21 months -- A few things about the later months of age 1 and awaiting MRI info.
- Patience + Parenting -- I don't have enough patience, so here's what I'm hoping to do about it.
- Wine + Painting, and more weekend things -- How we celebrated 6 years of marriage and an interesting weekend (for once!).
- Ahhhhhhh! -- Yeah. I had a little rant + promptly got over myself. The internet never forgets these things, though.
