Hey gang!\u00a0 Before heading off to the wedding, there was a snack!<\/p>\n

\"smoothie<\/p>\n

A Bolthouse green goodness smoothie and a honey crisp.\u00a0 Mmm fill my bellah!\u00a0 I sipped and munched while I got dressed.\u00a0 I thought for sure we were going to be late but ended up right on time!\u00a0 The ceremony was lovely and the reception was small and intimate creating such a warm welcoming atmosphere.\u00a0 Sadly it was so dark in there that I couldn’t get pics of any food!\u00a0 They came out really bad and I wasn’t about to use flash.\u00a0 I will tell you what I had though. :D<\/p>\n

\"Us\"First you must bask in our hawtness!\u00a0 Rawr!\u00a0 You can see I went with the first dress.\u00a0 I asked on Twitter whether people wear hose or not and the majority of responses were a firm no.\u00a0 I had originally picked up a pair of hose at Kohl’s because I didn’t have any at home but somehow this pair of hose never made it out of the store.\u00a0 We didn’t even buy them but I’m not sure what happened to them.\u00a0 The last thing I wanted to do on Sunday was make a quick run to Target for more hose.\u00a0 No thank you.\u00a0 I went sans and it all worked out well.<\/p>\n

Now eats!\u00a0 To nibble on, a small bowl of chex mix with a glass of Cabernet.\u00a0 Salads were served which were iceberg lettuce, some shredded carrot, red onion, cranberries and I think goat cheese, but I’m not positive.\u00a0 The dressing was honey mustard which I drizzled a little bit on.\u00a0 The main entree was green beans and roasted potatoes for me.\u00a0 There was also a beef or chicken option (chicken had cheese and bacon on top), both of which I declined.\u00a0 Scott had the chicken and said it was alright.\u00a0 Then I picked some extra green beans off his plate.\u00a0 I’m not sure what the cake was because I did not have any of that either.\u00a0 Looking at Scott’s plate last night it seemed to be a chocolate and white combo.\u00a0 There were Buckeye favors at the table and I ate one of those.\u00a0 Buckeyes are just like a homemade Reese’s cup, milk chocolate and peanut butter.<\/p>\n

\"popcornAll of us more senior guests peaced out around 10pm.\u00a0 It was Sunday and we were all passing out! :p\u00a0 I was still a bit “hungry” when we got back home, so I had a glass of red and some popcorn.\u00a0 I kept the “fun” theme going.\u00a0 I had some chex mix and now some popcorn, both of which I rarely have so what the hell right? :D<\/p>\n

I went to bed way too late!\u00a0 This is what happens when I stay up to watch a hockey game, jeesh!\u00a0 It was 12:30 when I hit the hay.\u00a0 I know!\u00a0 All desire to get up early this AM were long gone.\u00a0 I slept until 8am and immediately felt like crap as soon as I got up. :(\u00a0 So much so, that I debated going back to bed after feeding, watering, and potty-ing the Rocks.<\/p>\n

I stayed up and just sat at the computer for a minute trying to get my bearings and see how I felt.\u00a0 Around 9am, I woke up Scotts and made some breakfast.\u00a0 My appetite was a bit off which is never a good thing for a foodie.\u00a0 I didn’t want anything too heavy but did want something substantial.<\/p>\n

\"CoffeeI had some coffee and pumpkin oatbran with no banana because I’m out. Boo!\u00a0 The oatbran was fine, the coffee was not.\u00a0 I had about maybe two sips before passing it off to Scott.\u00a0 It was not sitting in the tum very nicely.\u00a0 After breakfast I took Rocky out for a walk which helped a bit.\u00a0 The day was a beautiful one with clear skies, sun, and just a touch on the cool side.<\/p>\n

\"Tea\"I made some tea when we got back home, My Apple Pie blend from TehKu.\u00a0 Awesome!\u00a0 I added a touch of honey and figured that the chamomile component of the tea would help with any ills.<\/p>\n

I did a bit of work and then moved into the kitchen for some lunch.\u00a0 Easy, comforting, and fortifying is what I was looking for.<\/p>\n

\"bread<\/a>Two slices of Ezek bread with PB<\/abbr> and honey, along with a slice honey crisp apple.\u00a0 Thank Jeebus for Ezek bread, love it!<\/p>\n

\"smoothie<\/a>Healthy smoothie!<\/p>\n
