(leggings, sweatshirt, shoes)
It took a very hot shower to defrost after Saturday’s run. HOW DID I MARATHON TRAIN DURING THE LAST FEW WINTERS?
The kids had indoor soccer practice later in the day, and there is a gym right next to where they practice (my gym pass gets you into it for free, too!). It seemed too perfect to get in some strength training during their practices. PS The Olympics flag in the back reminded me to tell you to come to Utah for the 2034 Winter Olympic Games, and we can plan a big run/dinner/anything while you guys are all here:)
Balance for the weekend included Malasadas (the starving student card we have had free ones on there!):
And a salad in which it was hard to see the lettuce because the toppings were so thick, this balsamic vinaigrette is the best dressing ever. Power greens were the base with avocados, apples, red onions and cucumbers.
We really thought about getting some skiing in over the weekend but the temperature prevented us from trying… My littles would have been popscicles.
Sunday morning included watching old family videos.
And then church.
An afternoon nap where I woke up feeling like it was morning was just what we needed (Saturday night, Andrew and I stayed up way too late watching Carry-On ((on Netflix)).
Sunday evening was a treat. My niece is leaving for her mission to Bulgaria soon and she has met someone in our area who’s family was from Bulgaria and she herslef also went on a mission to Bulgaria. She came to my sister’s house and cooked an entire Bulgarian meal for us. She also shared her family’s story of escaping Bulgaria during communism. We had quite the cultural experience. I am so excited for my niece.
This cucumber, tomato, and feta salad is something she said they eat daily and I could get on board with that.
I hope you have a beautiful Martin Luther King Jr. Day!
