I went on a 5k run during lunch. In the mega winds. My mind was half telling me go and half no, no. But I did it. And I'm so proud of myself for pushing myself out. And then I got to enjoy Annapolis restaurant week at Tsunami with Jeff V. and his friend -- sushi and salmon and shrimp "tacos" and ice cream. Everything was quite tasty. I'm glad I was able to experience it.

A little early, but since Brenden is working at night tomorrow, we decided to celebrate chili day today! We made a lentil chili and it was oh so good, and pretty easy, which makes it even better. We sautéed onion and red pepper, then added garlic and chili powder. After that we cooked together lentils, tomatoes, broth and a bay leaf. After the lentils were soft we removed the bay leaf, pureed some of the chili and added salt, pepper, chipotle chile powder, and red pepper flakes until al the tastes were perfectly balanced. I garnished mine with avocado and cheese and Brenden with sour cream. Yummy in our tummy.
Also, my cousin Jared sent me a picture of there new restaurant signs -- my logo light up and shinning bright on H Street in DC, It looks amazing and a feel so good about it.

It's chocolate mint day. What better way to celebrate then by eating the last of my favorite mint chocolate ice cream cookie sandwich! How did you celebrate? 🙌🍫🍦 🍪

I'm excited that I am excited to start celebrating my birthday! And, I am super happy that Brenden was totally down to going to The Melting Pot to kick off the celebrating, for an early birthday dinner (less then 12 hours until I'm 27, crazy)! The food was all so delicious, as usual, and we gobbled it all down. I was super pumped to try new things this year (yes, we pretty much only go once a year, twice tops). We got a french onion cheese fondue which was oh so tasty and scrumptious, followed by our entree which we chose a miso broth cooking style for. Omg, fabulous; it was just the right amount of everything, flavor and spice that complimented but didn't overpower the meat and veggies. And, we finished the night off with the flaming turtle chocolate. My stomach is so full, but my taste buds are screaming more, more; it was that good. We finished the night off watching a new episode of one of our favorite shows, The 100, as I continued the countdown to midnight. But really until I wake up at five in the morning because I have an early bedtime and definitely don't stay up until midnight anymore (unless it's NYE...maybe).

Breakfast for dinner! A creation straight from my imagination, and it turned out fabulously.

Snow -- day two.1. Snowed in, waking up to the snow covered ground and snow filled sky made for a beautiful morning.
2. A relaxing day spent reading a book and watching tv shows and movies with Brenden.
3. Baking, one of my favorite snow day activities. I made chai spiced cupcakes with chai brown butter buttercream frosting and a cinnamon sugar topping. Can you say gluttony? So good!

Redox movies with Brenden. So many good movies. A warm, cozy, comfy couch. And, my love. Oh and a filling lunch with my momma. Nom nom nom.

Pretending like I'm not sick and didn't bruise something from coughing too much, by making all the sweets I can before the holiday baking season is over. Todays menu included cookie butter chocolate bark, mint chocolate bark, and chocolate dipped peanut butter shortbread cookies with a pistachio macaroon crumble. So much sugar. That plus christmas movies, some time with friends, and my comfy couch equals a pretty good day in my book, sick or not.

A rainbow puts a smile on everyones face, and it is just what I needed on this gloomy day. Even though it only lasted a few seconds it did just the trick. Oh, and snickerdoodles. Chai spiced snickerdoodles. Fresh out of my oven. That helped too.
