Okay first off, Friday morning, my mom and I stopped at a bakery before visiting my great aunt...and Oh. My. Gosh. Diet suicide. Minefield. War Zone.
Behold: Sciortino's Bakery on the east side:
Friends, I did not bite or nibble a SINGLE THING. Be impressed by my willpower. For the record, though, they had FRESH baked doughnuts. So, I took an extra big whiff of the good stuff and calmly walked back out onto Brady Street.
Later that day, my mom and I travelled out to Sheboygan County to meet with a woman who used to own the "Private Gardener" in the 3rd Ward. Her name is Victoria and she gave me wonderful, beautiful ideas for wedding flowers and centerpieces. More on that another time...tune in for my wedding posts :) Victoria is my new girl crush. She lives on a large farm out in Sheboygan County. She and her husband transformed an old barn into their house and it is so gorgeous and unique. After a lovely tour, she served us delicious homemade chicken and wild rice soup (4 Points Plus) and a spinach and goat cheese salad with BEETS (also 4 points) that she canned from over the summer. Oh my gosh, how do I love beets. They are so delicious. And goat cheese. But not too much goat cheese, now. 1 ounce of goat cheese is 3 Points Plus. But spinach and beets are 0, so Horray!
That is not my salad, I WISH. That is the serving plate.
On Friday night, we did the Lakefront Brewery Tour on Friday night with all my nursing gals which was super fun. Activity points were definitely used on this trip... They don't necessarily have "light" beer at Lakefront. But this tour was very fun and informative! I highly recommend it. And at the end you get to sing the theme from Laverne and Shirley! WE'RE GONNA DO IT!
Then, Saturday night, Patrick and I had dinner out at my parents house (which of course meant great wine!). Patrick and I kept it all in check, though, being good little Weight Watchers citizens and tracking everything we ate. I worked out like an animal again last week (meaning, I worked out everyday, not something I'm used to doing), so I felt comfortable on the weekend.
We're really getting the hang of this and we both feel pretty good this week, so....
