At some point this weekend, Vishnu said that he loves how I find so much happiness is the little things.  So true.

Lucky for me, this weekend was full of wonderful little things. 

In no particular order…

I was in heaven upon walking into this new to me farmer’s market.  So much great stuff for so cheap.  I walked out of there with a bag full of fruits, veggies, and a loaf of bread for $18!! 

And that would be a kale, green apple, and cucumber juice from the market’s little café!  It was pretty good, and I felt so good for drinking it.

Saturday night was wine, cheese, bread, and olives night.  I finally made it happen!  I wasn’t so sure how much Vishnu would enjoy this meal, but by the end of it, he mentioned that we should make this a regular thing.  Music to my foodie ears!

But for real…I can’t even begin to tell you how delicious all of this was.  The multi-grain bread was the loaf from the farmer’s market.  The olives and cheese (goat gouda, provolone, and some blended cheese I can’t remember the name of) were from Whole Foods.  I can’t wait to do this again! 

I mustered up the courage to make a trip to Costco at 2 pm Sunday afternoon.  Bad idea!  Way. too. many. people.  But I did manage to find everything on my list.  We should be good to go for another few months.  Ha!

A much needed pit stop to satisfy a much needed craving.  This is pretty much my standard now – cookies and cream yogurt, dark chocolate chips, a few cookie dough bits, strawberries, and sliced almond.  Mmmmm…

I picked up this book at the library.  I’m hoping to incorporate some new moves into my strength training routine.  And for the weights, well let’s just say I decided to up the anti!  This is a huge step for me and my “I workout in my living room” self.  I tried these bad boys out for an at home strength training workout on Sunday.  And let’s just say I’m a litttttle sore today. 

Two other small things that made me happy went undocumented unfortunately.  One was a fun Mexican meal out on Friday night with Vishnu.  I was starving by the time I got home from work so it was much needed.  And number two was that I made poached eggs for lunch on Sunday…for the very first time.  They actually tasted really really good!  For any poached egg novices out there, I followed this method.

Well, I hope you too were able to enjoy the little things this weekend! 

Happy Monday!
