Moxie for Life

I really had a great day! It started at 4 am. My usual alarm time. My daughter had set her alarm and came in to wake me up with a gift. She made me a card and gave me the super cute shirt I’m wearing in the picture. She had gotten it probably 6 months ago and saved it for me. I kept seeing it in her closet and told her to give it to me if she wasn’t going to wear it. It wouldn’t fit her. lol She is a great secret keeper and so thoughtful.

The rest of the day was the usual. Worked and had a nice lunch at a super healthy place with some co workers and at 3:00 sent the students off to Spring Break! YeeHaw!

Went home and had a nice nap and got ready for my night out with my honey.

We went to the Melting Pot…oh man. So good! We had the Mexican cheese fondue starter…with tortilla chips, bread, veggies and apples to dip. I had a California Salad with blue cheese and candied walnuts with a raspberry dressing, hubby had his usual Caesar salad. Then for our main course we had Chicken, duck, steak, shrimp and potstickers in a coq a vin cooking sauce. I’ve never had duck before so that was a fun new thing and I loved it. We finished it off with a Chocolate Peanut Butter Fondue with brownies, rice krispy treats, pound cake, strawberries. I think one of the best things other than the food at this place is that it makes you slow down and really enjoy your food and company. It is well worth the $$ for a special occasion dinner.

After dinner we went to see the movie “21″. It was a movie that I could have missed and felt the same as I do after seeing it. It was not so good. It was about 2/3 of the way through and you could have paused it and written the ending without anyone ever telling you and you would be right. Really predictable and cheesy. 1/2 Star out of 5, and that 1/2 is only for being out at ANY movie would have earned 1/2.

We came home and got to bed about 1:30 am…that is 4 hours past my usual bedtime and only 2 1/2 hours before I normally get up. It really was a great day.

Not the most important part, but yet fun…My honey gave me an Angela Adams handbag and a CHI flat iron which I love and have used everyday so far since he gave it to me. (Thanks, Sundie and Kyla. I told you I’d have to get one!) My lovely family gave me lots of fun gift cards which I will enjoy spending!

I am blessed and my true gift is you, my family and friends. Thank you!

Now, to get my butt back to 100% diet. Plllbbbbt.
