Blog was down for a few hours this evening – thanks DreamHost
It’s now 3AM and I woke up in a panic that something was wrong. LOL – had to come down and post!! Back to bed!
Kelsey and I wrapped up our studying and were on our way. I grabbed a few snacks for the afternoon!
Honeycrisp. Best apple bag of my life. I ate it at 5:00 just before my test!

And a fruit leather by Stretch Island Fruit Company that I got as a sample lately. I’m not the biggest fan of fruit leathers in general, but this one was very good and all natural and great fuel for my study walk. Lauri and I walked for about 50 minutes while going over our notes one last time.

Lastly, a new Bear Naked Grain-ola Bar, which I also ate at 5:00 before my test and shared with my friends.

This bar is so new it doesn’t have a label yet! But if it did…here’s what it would look like:

It was awesome. Like a chewy oatmeal cookie. I couldn’t get a clear photo with my phone, but here’s the general contents:

Kelsey loved it

Test went well!!
A few hours later I came home to find Matt cooking!! Clearly he’s feeling (and looking!) better. Here’s the icing contraption we worked out involving a stretch band and a black sock!

I made a POM + Tonic mocktail to sip while we cooked


Dinner was a repeat!
Coined as one of my top 5 best soups!

Tonight’s version was made exactly like the first and was delish!

Enjoyed on a tray while watching the movie Be Kind Rewind, which I did not find very good and left in the middle to blog. Matt ’s enjoying it though!

Mid-way through the movie we broke for a little dessert brought over by Mama Karen for the patient! I’m not sure whose day it brightened more: mine or his!

She found this gelato at Fresh Market, and there is nothing light about it!

But it was some of the best iced.cream. I have ever tasted!!! Especially with a VeggieGirl Brownie Points Outsider on the side! SO fudgy. SO chewy!

Served with hot tea to counter the chill

Nothing makes things better like ice cream! Looking better by the minute:

Off to catch the end of the movie and get cozy for bed. Tomorrow is all about packing and gearing up for this trip. SO. EXCITED.
