Happy Saturday!

Happy Saturday! I'm waiting on Josh to get home from a morning of paint balling. I'm anxious to see what he says about it! We have soccer practice at 3:30....yes, Josh and I joined a soccer team! How random - my friend Ewa said her adult co-ed team needed one more girl and one more guy, so Josh and I signed up. I have not played soccer in close to 10 years, so I really hope I don't slow the team down while I am remembering how to play!

Maggie is my best friend and running partner. We are the same height and at about the same level of training, so it is great to run with her. So far we are running together every Saturday and running by ourselves during the week. This morning we ran a little over 2 miles which is pretty good! We are training for a 5k at the end of March so we have some time to build up. I've been keeping track of my runs this week with my new Runkeeper app - it is really helpful and a good way to keep motivated. Here is the route we ran today:

While I was waiting for Maggie to come over, I decided to make her and her boyfriend Jacob some valentines day treats! I have been saving this recipe for black bean brownies and WOW they came out SO good! Super moist and fudgy, I can't stop eating the leftovers. I cut their brownies into heart shapes - haha - and forgot to take a picture of them but here is a picture from the recipe I used, which can be found here.



How good do those look! Mine came out perfect after about 25 minutes.

Tonight Josh and I are going to dinner to celebrate one of his oldest friend's birthdays. We are going to a place in Raleigh called Chuck's, which I was kind of skeptical about because they only have burgers and I don't eat a ton of red meat. but after checking out the menu, it looks awesome!



I think I will get "The Big House" ... I just know Josh will love this place!
