200 blog post!!!

Woohoo!! this is my 200th blog post. I wish I had planned something exciting to post about but I have not.

I ran this morning bright and early after taking 2 days off. It felt great to be on the treadmill again. Because of my knee bothering me, I had planned on running a 12:00 pace for less than 2 miles. I was actually surprised at how easy a slower pace felt and enjoyed the run. Immediately after running, my knee started to ache again. So I'm using the RICE method to calm it down. Rest, Ice, Compression and Elevation. I figured now was a good time to blog.

I'm a little nervous because I don't have a day off until Halloween and I stand at work all day. So my plan is to use the elliptical Friday and Saturday and run on a trail on Sunday. Hopefully the knee issue will be a thing of the past. I assume it's due to me being overweight and out of shape. I think my body is confused.

These pictures are from last sunday but I wanted to share anyway!



Huevos Rancheros at Eggs and Things. I am making it my personal mission to recreate these at home. (a healthier version of course!)



Underneath the scrambled eggs, salsa and sour cream are some refried beans, beef, melted cheese, avocado and a corn tortilla. Honestly as much as I enjoy red meat, the beef isn't that great on the huevos rancheros!



Andy got a breakfast burrito which is something else I'll have to attempt recreating.



And pepper plant aka hot sauce of the year. This is a brilliant sauce with notes of garlic and cayenne. Wowsa.


Alright people, I need your help. I am going to a Halloween party this year and I need to find a good costume.





Let's just say my costumes in the past have been uninspired. A blue wig and some fake pearls? Really?

Also, let's wish a happy birthday to one of my favorite people. Ashley Happy birthday!!!
