It’s been an amazing day! However, it’s also been a day when I realize I need to do something about my weekend eating habits, whoops.
Today was the day we switched out our summer and winter wardrobes, and made a huge pile of almost-never-worn stuff to donate. We were so busy all morning I was actually too distracted to eat. When we headed to Goodwill (around 2) I did stop in at Dunkin Donuts to buy a medium, nonfat, coconut ice latte.
I had been wanting to try one of these ever since I saw one on another blog weeks ago. ‘Twas good!
While we were out, Adam and I headed to the movies to make a date of it. A serving of TJ’s Gummy Tummy snacks made the perfect movie snack.
Plus they are adorable 😉
We saw “How to Train Your Dragon” (not in 3-D), which was shockingly good. This is now both Adam’s and my new favorite movie! I love modern children’s movies that don’t sacrifice themselves for adult humor. This was funny for all ages, had a great message, and was totally adorable. I’m a definite sucker for movies with any sort of fairy tale element – dragons, trolls, faeries…..bring it on!
Whilst at the mall I stopped in at Old Navy to buy a cheap, sporty-ish, one piece bathing suit. I’m seriously going crazy not going to the gym and hopefully swimming will be able to fill the void. I told Adam today that I’m worried my soul will be broken by the time I’m allowed to run again. The South Campus gym has a pool, so this week I’m going to try going for a swim.
We couldn’t let the afternoon end, so when we got home from the mall we took a walk around our neighborhood, and came upon this –
La Tee Da has been on my ‘to eat’ list ever since I read about it on Yelp months ago, I had no idea it was right next door. The menu looked amazing and the restaurant was filled with all sorts of adorable touches.
I had a lot more to photograph but my camera died. Dinner out wasn’t in our original plans so we were kind to our wallets and decided to split a drink and some appetizers. We got some amazing (free) bread and evoo.
Belinis are my favorite.
And we ordered the fried artichokes and the eggplant buffalo ‘wings’ –
Yummmmm. Every single bite was delish. The concept of eggplant wings seems to be a totally Buffalo concept and it is amazing.
For dinner dinner I made myself a spicy grilled cheese with two slices of Buffalo Wing Sharp Cheddar.
To be eaten while watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer via Netflix. I would say Adam and I have fully milked his Spring Break, wouldn’t you? 😀
Do you enjoy “kid’s” movies? What’s your favorite cinematic genre? I love children’s cartoons and raunchy comedy.










Coconut iced latte sounds yum! I need to clean up my weekend eating habits too…
That movie sounds kind of good; I love kids movies like UP.
Have a good Sunday!
Okay, seriously, I need to start eating some candy.
Yay for the coconut latte! Happy to hear you enjoyed it.
La Tee Da looks adorable. I love the plates and the eggplant wings–what a fabulous idea.
I too like raunchy comedies and I am a sucker for romantic comedies.
The coconut latte looks SO good, I wish we had a dunkin donuts here! My fav movies are rom coms 🙂
what’s a rom com?
