Hi guys
and happy weekend to all of you. I am checking in today for another weekly round-up so be sure to grab your fresh cup of coffee and stay with me.
Activities:
Overall through the winter time I get very lazy regarding in times of going out and doing a lot of stuff outside the house. It is just too cold and always dark and it whether snows or rains so not really nice to be out on the street. But despite all the things (and really all of them happended in that one night) we went out last Saturday to a bowling centre with a befriended couple and it was so much fun. We weren´t that bad at all but we really didn´t play to win. Just for fun. After two hours and three rounds of bowling (and upcoming signs of fatigue and hunger) we headed to a nearby restaurant (the Beach House). I have written about this before and they serve – at least in my opinion – the best Ceasar Salad I have found so far. We really enjoyed the nice evening.
On my birthday on Tuesday we went out to have my annual birthday dinner at my favorite restaurant (Tiziano) and had a very nice evening. I got some very nice presents and had a great meal and overall it was a great day. You can read my birthday post including 29 random and personal facts here.
Shopping:
I haven´t gotten too much this week but since I am in full Valentine´s Day mode everything is whether pink or read or heart shaped/patterned. Just can´t help it. It is one of my favorite holidays of the year. Asos has quite the range of hear patterned pieces like this very Moshino like sweater and these cute pair of heart earrings.
Drinking:
Due to all the festivities (Christmas, New Years and my birthday) of the last weeks we have been drinking lots of champagne. Moet & Chandon is by far my favorite. We are usually keeping one bottle at home for a celebratory event but I mostly drink the more inexpensive version called Freixent as I also really enjoy the taste and they have a lot of different ones.
Watching:
Went on with Supernatural but only saw about 2 more episodes. Also we finished season 2 of Designated Survivor and I am not quite sure if I want to start with YOU. It is super hyped but I have heard positive and negative opinions about it so I am really not sure if I want to waist my time with it (haven´t even read one book in the whole month of December).
Sporting:
I am still not back to my fitness routine but I have recently gotten a workout DVD from amazon. It is called Jillian Michaels – Ripped in 30. There are four rounds, one for every week of the month. You do the same workout every day for one week and then you go on to the second workout for the second week and so on. I did my first on Wednesday and oh boy it was hard. I can´t remember sweating so much and feeling so exhausted and sore after. Took about 25 minutes. Hopefully I can keep up with it.
Reading:
I have to admit I didn´t read a lot the last two weeks. I started Better Than Before from Gretchen Rubin and I also have read a lot of post from a blog I have recently found called Champagne Colored Glasses.
Posts to read from this week:
