This weekend was all about shopping and cooking (and trying compensate at the gym).
I bought:
Super cheap display stuff at the Macy’s closing up shop sale at Summit Place Mall.
This handmade romper at the thrift store! Hurry up, summer!!!
and a great necklace at a jewelry party my awesome MIL hosted. It’s fancy (and in the mail, so no pic yet!)
Unfortunately, we also bought a brand new grill which Dan discovered was missing a TON of parts when we got home. Dan grills year-round, and is pretty dang mad at Sears right now while he waits over a week for the parts to arrive in the mail now.
In the meantime, I’m cooking!
Usually, I use recipes – but my favorite way to cook is to just throw things together and see what happens. So this is what I came up with last night.
Chicken and Spinach pasta in a butter and white wine sauce.
Banana and brown sugar stuffed pastries. Chocolate sauce on top.
Incredibly delicious. Gotta spend a lot more time at the gym for that dessert…it’s a vicious cycle isn’t it? And yet, so worth it!
