Productive weekends make me happy, whether it’s accomplishing tasks that affect the quality of my life or just the quality of my meals that day, I relish in getting stuff crossed off the list.
Here’s the quick rundown from the weekend:
Hal made us tasty chili on Friday, and the realization that we had lunches for the following week made me supremely glad as I portioned them up into our glass containers for individual helpings. For some reason this just sounds very Martha Stewart to me, but no, Hal did not ground the chili meat himself nor did I hand blow the glass. Although, I did clean out our pantry shelves and yes, everything has a shelf life.
On Saturday, I labeled our pantry shelves thanks to my label maker, which still has me smiling since Christmas. After having our fill of chicken lettuce cups, we later enjoyed sundaes with homemade ice cream and brownies – well worth the stomach ache that ensued the next morning. Eating an egg sandwich with overly charred ham is the key to getting over the belly pain, apparently.
Sunday was not celebrated with sentiments of saccharine love (although I have been enjoying the flowers Hal gave me), but stuffing our save-the-dates did warm my heart. Devouring the Indian buffet at Karavalli for dinner was truly our Valentine’s Day treat.
Laundry, going to an open house, bonding with the elliptical, and that dreadful work stuff were also added to the mix. But I can’t complain, especially when the weekend finished on such a delicious note. Reading this over, it looks like my productive weekend was mainly defined by making and/or eating lots of good food, and I'm totally okay with that. Bring on next weekend!
