Saturday - a day of rest

Ahhh, our first Saturday home as a family since August - no joke - either I was working at the Fair, , I was in Florida with Avah, then Tom at the Hunt Camp, then Tom and I in Florida.  So this weekend finally we are home before we leave for Vegas on Wed night.  Woohoo.
We went to The London Club last night and had such a nice time.  I love getting dressed up and going out with friends.  I'm feeling it a bit today - never fails that I end up with a headache the day after.  I had two glasses of champagne upon arrival and 2 glasses of wine at dinner and then switched to water and still the damn headache.  The food was amazing - food stations,which is my favourite.  Huge jumbo cold shrimp, sushi, crab cakes, chicken, cheese, I had just a tiny tiny portion of the pasta (maybe 3 mouth fills), we shared some samples of dessert.  All in all a great meal. Today I'm back to chugging 8-10 glasses of water minimum - love my clear pee.

Today I was in bed until 900am and then just a banana for breakfast.  I try not to have my shake on weekends so that I don't get sick of it and normally we sleep in on weekends and I'm not working out so not a big deal.  Avah and I ran errands and did a big grocery shop this morning while Tom and Jack were at hockey.  Lunch was a buffet like normal - PB and J for Jack, one kind of sandwich for Avah, another for Tom and my usual salad plate with chicken and egg for me.  With a side of chips which I have to tell you I then threw in the garbage and told Tom tomorrow - NO CHIPS - lets just try a day and see if I die.  haha.  I got some salsa and tortillas for movie time this afternoon that I will serve with veggies and cheese.  Supper tonight is grilled shrimp that I do with olive oil, fresh tomatoes and garlic, roasted asparagus and homemade mac and cheese for the kids.  I got some seasalt popcorn for tonight since we are doing two movies today.  Tom went out and bought ET which I'm so excited to watch with the kids this afternoon - one of my fav childhood movies and for tonight we bought Rock of Ages which our whole family has anxiously been waiting for.  We saw it twice at the theatre with our kids and we all LOVE it.  So a very lazy day of movies and comfy clothes and snuggles on the couch.  And maybe if Tom's a good boy he will get lucky.....I told him he has to be on his best behaviour...haha...the one aspect of our relationship that I have total control over...hehehe....
