Our New Tradition: Anniversary Eats (WIAW 8/23)
In case you missed it, yesterday Landon and I celebrated our one year (!!) anniversary!
We had a great day (details below…) but I think Landon and I may have had too much fun yesterday- it was a struggle to get out of bed this morning.
But since we are here to talk about food, let’s get onto that…
Yesterday, I kicked off our anniversary morning with a tiny little run – 1.3ish miles. It’s hard for me to stop at just 1.3 miles, but I know listening to my body is important!
After chugging a large amount of water, I made my typical breakfast: protein smoothie
I spent the rest of my morning blogging, cleaning the house, working on meal plans for the rest week, and grocery shopping!
My morning went by super fast and before I knew it, Landon came home for lunch.
Lunch? Giant salad (with cheese on the side)
And an apple with some grapes. I love it when fruit is on sale…
After Landon left to finish up a couple more hours of work, I finished my house work, spent time sending emails, working on the blog, and I made another batch of these bad boys.
Naturally, I made sure they were edible 😉 and enjoyed a two protein bites with my second cup of coffee for the day.
Once Landon got back home, (yeah!) we left for a super relaxed date.
I’m so glad that we both are relaxed and go-with-the-flow type of people, because we ended up having to eat Chipotle in the car…
We had important places to be.
I managed to eat half of my bowl before I calling it quits. Chipolte is quite filling!
We saw Ben-Hur and we were both quite pleased, it was intense, but in a good sort of way!
Landon and I topped of one year anniversary celebration by splitting a large strawberry shake!
Fun story? On the day after our wedding (one year ago today actually!!), Landon and I went out for dinner and split a huge strawberry shake (like so huge they served it in a goblet!) Last night, we decided to keep the tradition alive and split another strawberry shake.
This time, served in a large, frosted mug.
New traditions are the best. The shake was deliciously filling…thank goodness we split it. The shake was great, but the company was even better. Man, I love this guy.
Shortly after we got home, we exchanged cards and crashed in bed (we were both exhausted!) I blame the sugar…
I’m off for now, if you need me, you’ll find me bouncing on my exercise ball. Come baby come!
