1/2 cup old fashioned oats, 1/2 cup unsweetened almond milk, handfull of craisins, cut up apple, and a spoonfull each of peanut butter and apple butter. I have finally cured my aversion to oatmeal. I just can't eat it by itself. I have to have fruit cut up in it or have it mixed in yogurt...I'm weird. After my breakfast I left for my usual saturday morning workout! I love weekend workouts b/c I can get a lot more done. I started with this workout that left me sore the next morning:
Then I hopped on the treadmill and ran 4 miles. I warmed up for a mile including a 2 minute walk and then I went from speed 6.0 up to 7.4 by increments of 0.2 and ran at each for 2 minutes. I looked like such a hot mess afterwards. I wish I could be one of those people who "glows" and doesn't sweat like a pig.
Lunch to refuel:
Random veggie scramble: brussel sprouts, carrots, broccoli and peppers sauted and then I added some liquid egg whites and topped it with cheese. Apple Cinnamon Chobani on the side :)
And now for the highlight of my weekend: Wine Tasting At The Rent's House!
My dad is in charge of all of the drinks for the wedding. He wants to have a red and a white at each table for dinner and then have some other options at the bar for cocktail hour. He went to a local liquor store with our menu and the people there recommended some choices for wines to go with the appetizers/entrees. So my dad got a bottle of each and we invited some friends and family over to rate them. Going in to this I thought there might be 5 or 6 wines. I walked in and found 15 bottles of wine looking me in the eye hahah.
And a table set up with one white glass and one red glass for each person along with a pen and paper for ratings.
Along with the wine we had strawberries, lots of cheese and crackers and of course chocolate! I ate wayyyyy too much chocolate. I have serious problems lol. All the wine was awesome and I would be happy with any of them at the wedding.
I think my mom and dad should go in to business after this one. My mom stayed up until 1:30 in the morning the night before getting descriptions of all of the wines. This picture was taken after all 15 were tried haha.
Now you would think I would sleep like a rock after this, but somehow I didn't. I woke up at 8:30 not feeling rested at all. Matt and I went rock climbing, ran some errands and took champ for a walk. Then I really wanted something light for dinner so I cooked up some tilapia, asparagus and sweet potatoes.
And the absolute best part of my weekend?? It's not over. I have tomorrow off!!
Anyone else out there ever hosted their own wine tasting??
