What's on your Wednesday Menu, RNYers?
Morning everyone! Happy Hump Day!
I rarely get headaches (so grateful!) but I woke up with a doozy of one in my left eye this morning. I hope it just goes away as I start getting ready this morning. Blergh.
Update on the pillow situation! I literally placed an online order with Bed Bath & Beyond around 10am on Monday and Grim texted me yesterday at about 9am to say they were already delivered!? WTH? So yesterday was new pillow day, and I am happy with what we got. I got us each one side sleeper and one back sleeper. The side sleeper is dense and flat, and the back sleeper is very fluffy. It's only been one night but so far I recommend :)
Accountability: Great. I ran just under 2 miles at home yesterday before work and ate on plan. The tacos at dinner last night were small, and I only ate the pork, so my guess is that I ended the day well below my calorie goal :)
QOTD: If you could pick one store to have an all expense paid shopping spree, where would you go? Is Amazon a store, haha? No, I would go with Nordstrom. Lots of different departments and quality stuff! Let's go!
I am heading out to dinner tonight with another friend (I love having a 9-5 life that allows me to see people again!!). This time I am totally unsure about where we are going, so no plan for dinner yet.
Exercise: There is no way I can run with this headache right now, and I won't be home until after 8pm tonight, so if I feel better I will go for a walk at lunch.

Also, ALL the chocolate cake. Last time we went to IKEA, I let Nolan pick out any treat he wanted (he was getting his "big kid" bed!) and he dove face-first into a piece of cake that was bigger than his face. SUPER jealous.

Jen. How is this possible. Please go right away. Do you have one in Denver? It's a magical store. I highly recommend right after work on a weekday.
When I go, I come home with 19 things I didn't know I needed but I DO. It's amazing. All Swedish and functional and cheap as hell. I'm not a red meat eater but their meatballs are quite famous too.
