Weekend (& Monday Morning) Things!

• Top: Went on a FREEZING early morning bike ride with Team in Training. We met 7:30am on Saturday when it was only 30 degrees out for a ride over the GW bridge. I wore as many layers as possible (3 long sleeve shirts + jacket, 2 pairs of gloves, 2 pairs of socks, headband, neck warmer, fleece-legginges) but I was still frozen. It ended up being a very small group (started at 20 then 4 bailed after about 2 miles) so that was nice, but it took me about 40 minutes to warm up once I was home. It was brutally cold but I was proud of myself for making it all the way through the ride.
• Second Row: Came home and baked some serious deliciousness: Peanut Butter & Butterscotch S’mores (recipe only has PB but I did half that and half butterscotch). These are really decadent and sweet – definitely a treat! The recipe is pretty simple and they were a hit at the party.
• Third Row: Speaking of parties, that’s why I made those bars; to celebrate two of my friends & their engagement! It also overlapped with the Michigan basketball game so we made sure to have lots of Maize & Blue representing at the party.
• Bottom Row: And here we are, Monday morning. I made sure to wear some Michigan gear to my early AM spin class. Looking forward to tonight’s big game! LETS GO BLUE
