Seven Things Sunday

by Erika

Does that post title sound familar? ;-)

I’m sure many of you have heard of the blog Peanut Butter and Jenny.  If you haven’t, then I give you full permission to click the link and spend a few hours minutes browsing through her wonderful blog. 

Okay, are you back?  A few weeks ago Jenny decided to start an installment on her blog called Seven Things Sunday, where she talks about 7 things from the past week.  So far, she’s done about 3 of them and I’ve loved all of them, I actually stalk her blog all Sunday to make sure I don’t miss one.  They are just some really awesome posts.

Today when I woke up, I felt the urge to blog but had no idea what to blog about.  Figuring that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, I decided to be a copy-cat and do my own little version of Seven Things Sunday. :-D

* * * * * *

Seven Things Sunday

1.  Favorite meal of the week:  My Mom’s homemade gumbo based on this recipe.

2.  Song:  “Club Can’t Handle Me” by Flo Rida (featuring David Guetta)

3.  Workout:  Walks with Fluffy!  She’s been loving the walks lately and we usually do about 2 miles, by the time we finish she’s pooped!

4.  Quote:  “Those who do not find time for exercise will have to find time for illness.” – Earl of Derby

(My Sensei has a poster with that quote and I felt like I was staring at it all day yesterday.)

5.  Purchase:  All-Natural Peach-Mango FRS Energy Drink

6.  Laugh:  You really had to be there to fully get the humor in this joke, but let’s see how well I can re-tell it.  My friend, Katie’s best guy friend, became homeschooled a few weeks ago.  It was also around the same time that she told Kelly and I that she liked him, so we made a joke and said that he became homeschooled because of that.  She laughed and then we started talking about something else.  A few weeks later, on the way home from Cotillion, Katie pointed out that the guy lives a few streets away from her.  Kelly and I cracked another joke and said “Uh oh, now he’s going to move!”  Again, we laughed and continued talking about something else.  Finally, 2 days ago Katie came to school and informed us that he actually did move! We were dying of laughter for 10 minutes straight.  We’re so lucky Katie has a sense of humor! :-P

7.  Natural Occurence:  The 15 inches of snow is almost all melted!

* * * * * *

Well, that’s it.  I hope you enjoyed! 

Now I have to take some pictures of the Vegan Chocolate Chip Cookie Brownies I made earlier.  They are so decadent! 

Here’s a sneak peek:

Mmmm.

Questions of the Day:

  1. Did you laugh this week?  What did you laugh about?
  2. When it comes time do choose desserts, do you “go big or go home” or try to stay on the lighter side?  Go big or go home!  I don’t have dessert that often, so when I do I make it worth it!

Have a great Sunday! :-D

    he told me, “you are one tough mo-fo to put up with me for 10 years.” i had to laugh. cuz it’s true ;)
    desserts-i go light….i usually just need a couple bites to satisfy :)

  12. Oooh I love this!!!
    That gumbo looks really good btw :D

    And that’s so funny about the guy haha!!! I definitely did laugh this week- a LOT! Friends = life. And when it comes to dessert I pretty much settle for anything…as long as it’s SWEET ;)

  13. Awwee I really like this! Melted snow?? You’re SO LUCKY :D

  14. Oooh Iove that quote! Too true.
    When I make dessert, I go light. Heavy stuff upsets my stomach and I find it usually isn’t worth it. When the opportunity is there, I will have a few bites, but that’s enough for me.
    Hmm.. I can’t think of a specific thing this week that was particularly funny.. I’m not a big laugher to tell you the truth. That sounds depressing, it just takes a lot to get me to seriously crack up. Your story was pretty funny though and I KNOW that would have made me laugh!

  15. I laughed at W ordering a latte through the drive-thru, i’ll be posting about it soon! Love that soup-looks delish, and going for walks-can’t wait til I can get my pup out for a nice 2 miler!

  16. I’d always choose a light dinner and go for a decadent dessert. You cannot take me away from warm brownies and ice cream! :D

  17. I just heard that song in cycling today and not going to lie- I kind of liked it :)

  18. Haha! Too funny! I had a good laugh watching a video that Kristina posted on her blog (spabettie)! It had voice overs for all these little animals…hilarious!

    I try to stay on the lighter side when I make desserts because I know my willpower…or lack there of!

  19. Haha, how fun! That is awesome. I laughed somewhat this week… but not as much as usual, cause I was pretty stressed for most of it. :P
