--> I ate so much crap this weekend. It was a party weekend and I could not resist. Yesterday was the killer... I hosted a baby shower at my house and we had so many amazing concoctions... the kickers were the chocolate trifle and the donut cake. Seriously... donut cake is quite possibly one of my favorite foods in the entire world (next to brussel sprouts, of course). Its not like every other donut... there is something magical about donut in the shape of a baby bottle or a beer bottle (both of which we've had, among many many others including a foot, a shark, a pumpkin, a baseball...).

--> Saturday the hub and I went to a local park for an early morning 5 miler. It was really nice being able to run together... but the park was VERY hilly so the run kicked both of our asses.

--> I am obsessed with Orbit White Bubblemint gum... which comes in a container of 60 pieces! Its great for fresh breath, it curbs the cravings (especially the craving I have for the piece of donut cake that is sitting in my cupboard downstairs) and it also has made my teeth seriously white. Its a much better solution to teeth whitening, if you ask me.

--> I just took my dog for a walk... if you could see or hear her now, you'd think we just walked the Sahara, end to end. Pant, pant, pant, pant... gotta love that August heat.

--> Its the "busy season" at work so my creative energy has been sucked dry, as of late. I am thinking about work while I'm working (shocker!), running, eating, sleeping... etc. And, I don't write about work so my inspiration for blogging has been nill.

--> Lastly, I wish it was Sunday... cuz thats my fun day.

Oh my god, donut cake...how have I not heard of that before!!!!???? YUMMY!

At least you fit in a run...that will help work off some of that donut cake goodness.

Funny story about trifle. So my husband and I cook for each other on Valentine's Day instead of going out (we take turns, every other year). For dessert we always make trifle...we've tried Raspberry trifle, Lemon trifle, Pumpkin Trifle, English trifle (aka very very alcoholy trife) and chocolate trife. Also, yummy, yummy!
