Thanks to the Friends & Family sale I finished my wedding china set (seating for 12 even though I'm expecting 14 for Thanksgiving....). Of course I had to rip everything open and just get a feel for it. I can't wait to see it all officially done up for Thanksgiving!
The set, tablecloth & napkins are all Waterford and my placemats are Chilewich. That silly black dot that shows up on my pictures is because I'm still rocking the 4g iphone which needs to be replaced sooner than later!
We didn't want a big dinner on Friday so we hit up a wine bar (Bodega), had small plates and a bottle of wine which is our version of perfect.
Repeat offender here, but....BABIES and PUPPIES?
Speaking of puppies. I got my first "daycare-ish" note when Roscoe and was so proud I had to send the note to Joel. We're doomed as actual parents.
Joel's been dragging me out of bed at 5:45 to join him for track workouts at UCLA's Drake Stadium. I bike over with him while he runs and then we run a few fast miles. It's actually pretty fun working out with all of the ROTC and UCLA cheerleaders, but holy hell do I need an afternoon coffee come 3pm.
Wine + Cheese plate dinners are my favorite. I've also been trying to get my workouts done in the morning but man am I ready for bed by 7! Hope your having a great week love!
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you work out with cheerleaders! 21 year old's in the best shape of their life, no thank you!
ReplyDeleteI make myself workout in the morning too and am with you on the afternoon coffee break! And kudos for working out around the cheerleaders, girl. When I first moved to Boston, I joined an awesome women-only gym and fell in love with a great Zumba class. It was catch 22 because I would leave feeling great, but right after our class the studio space was used for the Celtics dancers rehearsals as they flounced in donned in their miniscule spandex outfits. Never again!

ReplyDeleteI feel like working out with college athletes would be the best/worst thing ever. Good motivation to work hard, but probably intimidating at the same time!
Way to go girl getting out of bed that early to run!! I love that you got to finish up your china! Ive been doing the same thing around here getting ready for Thanksgiving and Christmas!
ReplyDeleteYour table setting is gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteSeeing you with a baby is just about the cutest thing everrr!
ReplyDeleteWine and cheese makes for the best dinner! We may have to do that tomorrow night :) And that first picture... seriously so cute!
ReplyDeleteWay to go on the early morning workouts! Wine and small plates are my perfect meal. I still need to finish my china (5 yrs later...) I only have 8 place settings.
