Another Weekend Update

This weekend was filled with way too much eating, but it was so enjoyable!

Friday: Mom-In-Law, Noni, & I went for a fun-filled day of shopping. We had breakfast at Coffee & Cream, then went to a bunch of flower nurseries and a few stores. I bought another cute sundress--it's black and cotton, and so cute and comfortable. We met family friends for lunch outside. The weather was absolutely BEAUTIFUL. Friday night, we dined at "Eagle Brook Saloon" which was so much fun. The place was PACKED and they had the most delicious "Tumbleweed Salad"...yummers.

Saturday: Tommy woke me up at 6 AM to go drive to North Kingston to this donut shop called "Ally's"...I'm not usually much of a doughnut love but OH MY GOODNESS, these donuts were to die for. I totally at 2 and 1/2 donuts, haha! After breakfast, we went to a Toyota dealership to test drive some cars. I drove the Toyota Tacoma (which I loved) but it was way out of our price range. I felt a little overwhelmed because I felt the dealership was particularly pushy. We left empty-handed but with a better understanding of the type of vechicle I want. Saturday night we had a cookout at Tom's parents. I made an italian salad (my specialty) and veggie kabobs. There is seriously nothing like a good veggie-kabob on the grill. I'm salivating, just thinking about it.

Today (Sunday): Tom let me sleep in until 8 am (yay!!!). We got up, ate some breakfast at home, then went shopping in Attleboro. Didn't buy anything, but it was fun to poke around the stores. We picked up sandwiches on the way home. I had the meditteranean veggie wrap (my fav). Then, Tom took a nap for a couple of hours...this whole contact dermatitis thing is making him very tired. Meanwhile, while he was snoozing, I cleaned the bathroom, did 2 loads of laundry, emptied all the furniture (minus the appliances) out of the kitchen, mopped and vacuummed, then moved all the furniture back in. I also tried a new "getting rid of ants" tactic that I read in a magazine. I found any holes where ants could escape into the house and put cayenne pepper in those holes to deter the ants from entering. So far, so good. I also did the dishes. After I finished the housework, I woke up my sleepy hubby and we decided to take a trip to the Wrentham Outlets. We were looking for a GPS (which btw, Sony no longer makes), so no luck there. Tom suggested we hit up the Tommy Hilfiger Outlet. $97 dollars later I left with four fabulous shirts that I can take on vacation. Considering, they were normally priced at over 50 bucks a piece, I would call the shopping trip a success. We went to DQ for dinner with his parents and some family friends. Nothing like a Sundae on Sunday :O).

As far as Tom's contact dermatitis. He is so itchy and I feel absolutely terrible that he hurts. A friend of ours gave him this "Ivy Wash" to try and she said it really cools...so he's going to dry that. I also told him to take a benadryl tonight to see if that my help. I'm hoping tomorrow he'll feel a little better.

And as for me, I must start eating healthier and exercising again tomorrow because I ate way too much this weekend. Back on track...
