This weekend was great. I got a lot done and still had plenty of time to relax. I love weekends like that! Friday night, I had the class at the Vineyard, Learning to Minister like Jesus. One of the girls from my small group, Michelle, went with me. Im so glad she did because it was a little intimidating at first. Now that I understand it, I do know that it isnt me, its God. But ya know, it takes time to really comprehend that. It was really cool to see people get healed and physically see God working on them (a lil scary, but very cool!! :)).
After that class, me and Dan went to Radio Maria to have a drink and tapas. It didnt really go the way I'd planned... it was loud in there and we couldnt really talk. ALSO Radio Maria ruined my favorite tapa! Im like obsessed with risotto.. Radio Maria makes these arancini balls. Its risotto rolled into balls with fresh mozzerella in the middle and fried served on top of tomato sauce. Sometimes they add a vegetable to it, like corn or peas. Friday night they added green beans! What the heck.. it was not good. They were like just defrosted green beans- hard, not seasoned and didnt go with the dish. I was disappointed. Luckily Im blessed with an awesome brother in law, Matt, who taught me how to make these (he used to work at Radio), so basically I never have to waste my money there again, Ill just make it myself. Radio is sooo not doing very well without the talents of Matt. :) We also had these fried goat cheese balls served with honey and bread. It was good but not AS good as it used to be... :)
Saturday morning, I had my class again at the Vineyard, it went well and it was a beautiful day so me and Dan decided to grill out for lunch. We made asparagus and corn on the cob on the grill, salmon, and mac n cheese. It was a feast, haha. Very good! Dans a wiz at the grill. I think Im going to buy him a grill kit as a surprise. (Im on the day 3 (?) where it tells me to buy my spouse something in the Love Dare book and I think that would be a cool unexpected gift! :)
Then I laid outside and got a tan, fell asleep in the sun actually and woke up around 4. It was a nice day. Dan and I decided to use our gift cards for Ryans/Hometown Buffet that we had won at our Winfield Village meeting on Thursday. Neither of us are fans of either of those places so we went to Ryans first. We had two free dinner coupons and the people tried to charge us like $15. Soo.. we left. It was also good for Hometown Buffet so we went there. It was like 6 oclock... yeah, you guessed it...SOO PACKED! So we went to OCharleys and sat at the bar and ate. It was really nice. We actually could talk and everything. Nice lil date. We came home and caught up on Life on Mars, we still have like 4 episodes left but we are getting there. Then we watched SNL and fell asleep on the couch.
Sunday.. so I didnt go to church yesterday, (ME = LAZY!) Im going to download the sermon on my podcast so I can listen to it when I work out tomorrow... HOPEFULLY I get motivation to work out tomorrow. Me and Dan did Tai bo yesterday together.. hes like a pro at it, I felt like I was gonna die. And Im the one in shape!? How does that work? I guess Im not after all. lol So yeahh... I need motivation. Ill be in Vegas in like 6 weeks..in a bikini. Shouldnt that be enough? Um.. guess not!
After we woke up yesterday, me and Dan went to Le Peep (I know we go out to eat WAY too much, what the eff!?) for brunch. It was really good. I had an amazing vanilla milkshake that me and Dan sucked down in 2.5 seconds. Dan had a veggie, egg, hash brown dish with holandaise sauce on top and I had eggs, hash browns, cheese, and an english muffin. I could barely get through half of it, it was ridiculous... but very good. So yeah. Me and Dan are NOT going out to eat for a very long time! Seriously.. ugh! We need to save money and get fit! Thats our goal for the next 6 weeks, pray for us :) !!
Dan made risotto last night with scallops... wow! His mom, brother, and him are such good cooks, I feel like its in their blood! :) Lucky me! I wish Dan would utilize it more though, haha. I guess Im happy he doesnt because I do enjoy cooking and making new things.
I am glad that I got cleaning and laundry done yesterday... yay for Sunday afternoons! Also did my bible study for small group!! :)
