Saturday morning I got up in the lovey mid 30 degree weather for a 5K race to benefit the school I teach at. I completed it successfully in 32:33, not too bad and I ran with some of my coworkers and little munchkins from my class! It was bone-chilling fun! Had to run home and shower to go to a HUGE rivalry high school football game...well you see, I didn't go to either but have friends that coach on both sides... I was stuck in such a pickle on which side of the field to stand on... ahhhh!! SO at halftime I switched! Let me tell you, boys these days aregrown BIG, and I mean BIG! The game was packed and I went to the big 5th Quarter shindig after where oodles of grilling and laughing and drinking went on!
The game went into OT and the purple team won witha 41 yd field goal!
So today I got up and picked Mom up for the Metro Food and Entertaining Expo at the Washington Convention Center. Let me tell you, if you have never driven in DC, spare yourself, especially on a Sunday... its awful!!! Anywho, we got there and were welcomed with our little goodie bag and we had to rush off to our seats to see.....
GIADA deLAURENTIS!!! She was oh so cute and funny.. just wished we got some of the samples she cooked up!
Then we walked around to see the 350+ exhibits and bought a few goodies! FYI: saw a TON of granola, jelly/jam and spice vendors... interesting tastings! We got to sneak in to see Paula Dean a little later in the afternoon and Mike Isabella (from Top Chef) right before we left!
Came home, went to the gym and am waiting for dinner to be done in the oven! Hope everyone had a great weekend! :)
