Why Sundays Are the Best

I love Sundays. Always have. In High School it meant youth group night. In college my Sundays were filled with recovering from Saturdays, and spending time with my church family & friends. Now that I'm an "adult", they are filled with early morning Starbucks run, a morning filled with church friends, and preparing for the week.

Sundays are my time to 'relax' by cooking. It is my time to get my laundry done and prepare my outfits. I clean my apartment and finish grading papers... although grading is never done.

Here is what I'm preparing today:

Workout Schedules:

-For once this week I don't have to work at Old Navy! While I do enjoy working there, these long weeks have been killing me! This week I can finally get back into my workout gear and get some good runs in :)

Meals:

Here is my meal plan for the week!

- Monday: Leftover Sweet Potato Chili

- Tuesday: Bunco (dinner is served there)

- Wednesday: Orange Chicken & Brown Rice

- Thursday: Mexican Layer Bowls

- Friday: Grilled Teryaki Chicken

Outfits!

 

 

Do you like preparing things on Sundays? Or is it your "couch" day?

Weekend Happenings

Sunday, Sunday, Sunday! I can't believe the weekend is over already! This weekend was filled with many people and happenings so let's begin!

There was a wicked thunderstorm! It started when I got to the grocery store and when I got out it was still going! Loading my car and unpacking the groceries wasn't the best...

I don't see many rainbows but this one was so clear after the storm and right outside my patio! 

When I was grocery shopping I saw that spaghetti squash was on sale for $.99/pound. I've heard so much about it I decided to give it a try. I used Tina's recipe to cook it and topped it with Jenni-O ground turkey and marinara sauce. I also steamed some zucchini with garlic and made crescent rolls to go with. So delicious!!

Saturday was filled with cleaning and then celebrating Cinco De Mayo with this friend! Kristin and her boyfriend Josh came over for chips & guac, salsa, and good conversation.

And oh yea... this beauty! I used Mama Laughin's recipe except I didn't use crescent rolls I put a layer of baked doritos at the bottom instead. It tasted just like my Mom's except healthier :) 

Later that night I babysat this cutie and her 2 brothers! She is my ray of sunshine and I just love her so much :)

Sunday morning was spent at church and then I came home and took a glorious nap! I had to work tonight at the library so it was pretty uneventful.

How was your weekend?
