Happy Saturday! I hope all of you are out enjoying this beautiful weather!! We have had a busy, but fun week, so here is a little update on our life!
This was my third week of work, and I am finally getting settled in and beginning to understand everything. I am loving it more everyday and so glad that I enjoy going to work everyday!
Monday, I got home at 5:30 and Mitch didn't get home until 7:45, so I had plenty of time to rest and make dinner. I like having that couple hours before he gets home, so I am not rushed to get dinner made. I made lobster bisque soup. It had always been my favorite soup and so I thought I would try and make it. It is so hard to find a good bowl of lobster bisque at restaurants, so I wasn't expecting it to turn out that good. I was very surprised when Mitch got home and we tried it, it was soooo good! I am hooked on it and it is such an easy recipe. Here is the link to the recipe Lobster Bisque. You can also add some veggies and I used heavy cream instead of milk... I highly recommend that!
Tuesday Mitch had to be up at the hospital to take some tests, so he came and took me out to lunch. We found a new restaurant that we love in fayetteville. Most of you know, we could live off mexican food, and so of course the first place we tried was mexican and we loved it. It is right by my office and we go there at least once a week!
That night, I went with one of my friends, Jenna, to a get-together our Sunday school class was having for all the girls. There is a girl that just had a baby, so it was kind of a "meet the baby" party. There was lots of yummy food, and it was nice to spend some time getting to know more girls!
Also that night, Mitch surprised me with king cake! Since he lived in New Orleans for a little bit, he use to have it a lot and loves it, so he bought a big one from Rick's Bakery and surprised me with it!! It is so good and if you have never had one, next Mardi Gras, it's a must!
On Thursday, Mitch had his first adjustment! He came in right before I got off and when he was done we went to On The Border for dinner! Once again.. we had mexican :)
Friday, I only had to work for two hours and so I went in from 10-12. It is nice I don't have to work much on Fridays, but I do like getting out and it gives me something to do for a little bit. When I got done, I had lots of errands to run and I also got my ring cleaned!! Our jeweler is right on the square and it is so nice to just be able to drop it off to get cleaned and polished! I love having a clean, shiny ring!!
Mitch worked Friday, but that night when he got home, we went over to Jenna and Bryan's house for pizza! We usually play games, but we ended up just hanging out and talking! We have been doing this the past few weekends and it s so nice to end the work week with some good friends!
Today was so beautiful outside... It was 72 and sunny all day!! This morning, I taught my last tennis class and this afternoon, Jenna, Sam and I went running on the trail! It is going to be nice to have other girls to run with and especially with this weather.. I just love being outside!
This evening, I went to Wal-Mart and have been cleaning the house.
For dinner, I am made garlic and balsamic chicken... I am pretty sure I posted it on here awhile ago, and if you haven't tried it, you should! I am sorry I don't have more recipes to post, I have been lazy in posting them. But I do have a couple new things I have found to really like, so I thought I would share them. The first is Greek Yogurt...
I really like the Chobani brand, but this one is a lot cheaper and it really good! It makes for a perfect snack at work! The next is...
I love this! I am not a milk drinker, but this is really good! I have only had the almond flavor, which is really sweet, but next time I am going to try the original.
Mitch was on call today and unfortunately got called in. He worked yesterday, today and works again tomorrow! I won't get to spend much time with him this week, but we are going to Tulsa next Friday to celebrate my birthday with my family!!!
I have a busy busy week at work, but it should be a lot of fun. We are leaving for Denver in less than two weeks and we are trying to get prepared for it. Also, there is this new gym in the same shopping center as my office, and the doctors are buying all of us gym memberships!! It opens April 1st and is going to be so nice! It am really excited, not only because I get a free membership, but this way Mitch and I can start carpooling to work on the days we both work. We both have to be there at 6:30, but I get off at 5:30 and he gets off at 7, so this gym will give me something to do while I wait for him to get off and it will make me do my workout! Ha!
So that's a little update on us.... We have both been so busy, but it has been a great week!
Have a wonderful Sunday and a great week!
