Last week I posted about how one of my goals for 2014 was to do more fun things during the work week; because in all reality that's the majority of our existence, so if we're not having a little bit of fun, we're wasting a whole lot of time! These fun things I've been trying to do aren't anything super extravagant or spectacular, but making a concentrated effort to do something just a little bit fun really adds up. I want to inspire people to do the same, so I will (try!) and post what we've been up to each week. So here it is, Week Two!
Monday. I decided to try a new recipe for dinner (always exciting) and this one was a winner, winner chicken dinner... pun very much intended, as this fantastic new recipe was Chicken Curry. It was no where near as pretty as it was delicious, so there is no photo evidence that this dish even existed, but my tastebuds & I can swear to you that it did! You can find the recipe here.
Tuesday. Almost every Tuesday, my boyfriend and one of his besties head to the driving range after work, and this Tuesday I decided to venture along with them. I am no golfer, but I quickly discovered you could drink beer at this driving range, ummm heck yes golf is my favorite sport! And after all that golfing, Erik & I had worked up an appetite and decided to use the giftcard my parents got us for Christmas at our favorite pho place.
Wednesday. Same as last Wednesday, gym and Subway. I can definitely get enough gym, but can never get enough Subway!
Thursday. I convinced Erik to BBQ, and he agreed under one circumstance, we also rent a movie. So he headed to the grocery store & to pick up a Redbox, and nearly an hour later (the grocery store is not his forte) he came home with steaks, mussels & potatoes. Oh and the best movie EVER (insert sarcasm here) The Family. My apologies if that's like really your favorite movie ever.
He may have questionable taste in movies, but the man can cook!
On Thursday night, Erik also asked me if I thought I would be able to get February 13-14 off work. Why, you ask... because he wants to plan a long weekend in Vegas! That little tidbit was the cherry on top of my Thursday night, and we will indeed be heading to Vegas come February!
Friday. The weekend is finally upon us!!!! And what better way to kickstart the weekend than with a marg, fresh salsa, and great friends?!
Friday night my BFF, Sarah also came down to spend the weekend with us in Tucson. We wine tasted on Saturday, hit the casino, watched the Seahawks land a spot in the Superbowl, and didn't stop laughing the entire weekend. I blame all the fun we were having on my absolute lack of pictures taken. That's a lie, I do have quite the embarrassing fabulous picture of Sarah, but since she's my BFF, I would never share it on my blog, just mention its existence ;)
Happy Monday, here's to another fun week ahead!
