Frosting

April 16, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Hiya! Saturday night already? BBOOO! I hope you had a good day though! After the crazy tornadic weather (is tornadic a word?) We had a BEAUTIFUL day today! Breezy, sunny, high of 73. Awesome. Bobby and I started the day with a nice easy, but hilly, 3 mile run in 30 minutes. It was just so nice out, very odd for April on the coast. It’s usually hotter than heck around here by now!

Post run Sweatiness.

After getting cleaned up and looking like a girl again, I made lunch, we had new friends from church coming over!

We ate lunch outside, because, well, it was too petty to stay inside! We played the Wii and hung out. They have the cutest little boy, I think he’s 1.5 years old. So stinkin cute. The pups aren’t used to little people so it was funny to watch them interact (or bark at) him.

After they left, we went to Lowes. We had a few things to pick up for the house and I had a $10 coupon to use. After Lowe’s, we went to Dinner somewhere new (to us) called Aristos. It’s a Greek place modeled after an old favorite of ours in Jackson where we just moved from.

 

It was really yummy and very reasonably priced. Just enough food, too. I was full after but not that ohmygoshIamgoingtothrowup full. Even though I WAS full, I was determined to eat a cupcake. You see, right next to the restaurant is a Gourmet Cupcake place called Frosting….oh. my. gosh.

Not only is it pink and green and fun with couches and funky chairs, but they have AMAZING cupcakes! They have 6 flavors that are there daily and then every day there are also 6 other different flavors. I am for sure going back on a Tuesday when they have WEDDING CAKE! Bobby got one called “prozac” that was basically death by chocolate.

It was good…but not as good as my COOKIES N CRÈME!

HUGE and AMAZING. Seriously one of the best desserts I have put in my mouth, and trust me, I have had a LOT of desserts! After inhaling said cupcakes, we came home and took the girls on a walk. I didn’t feel quite as bas about myself for eating all my dinner plus a whole huge cupcake after my walk!

Now I am quite full and falling into a food coma. Ok, I am off to enjoy the rest of my weekend, and you should do the same! Tomorrow is church and working in the yard, and relaxing. I love Sundays!

QOTD: What is your favorite cupcake flavor?

    Oh yum! I am obsessed with cupcakes. Those look good! My favorite at the best place is NJ is the cookie dough or peanut butter cup. My favorite at the places here is either lemon or peanut butter banana. mmmmm. And now I want a cupcake at 8:30 am.

    Oh wow, girl, we would so be friends in person! This post sounds like one I could’ve written! Doing something active with the husband, hanging out with friends from church, eating outside ’cause it’s too gorgeous to go inside, going to Lowes (waaay too much time here, haha!) and finally, trying new places to eat (especially with coupons)! Haha! Seriously, this is like a day in the life of Christopher and Rach. Love it! 🙂 Looks like you had fun!

I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like t I turned 40 today. 🎉 Hitting a milestone like this has me reflecting—not just on what I’ve accomplished, but on who I’m becoming.

I’ve always been driven to achieve, to push, to prove. But lately, I’ve been learning to celebrate presence over performance, connection over perfection.

Today wasn’t about checking a box or hitting a goal—it was about pausing, feeling grateful, and eating a ridiculous amount of cake with people I love. And honestly? That feels like growth.

Here’s to 40: more aligned, more grounded, and still a little extra. 😉

Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 Big milestones always Turning 40 tomorrow. 🎂 

Big milestones always make me pause and ask:
What am I proud of?
What needs to shift?
Am I becoming the woman I want to be?

💡 As an Enneagram 3, I’ve always been wired to achieve — and for a long time, that meant shaping myself into whatever version I thought people would like best.

There are tables where it’s clear I’m not welcome — and that used to wreck me.
But at 40? I don’t do cliques. I don’t do shrinking or contorting to be accepted. 👀

I’ll always be kind. I’ll always be respectful. But I’m done dragging a chair to tables that were never built for me.

I’m moving over. Making space.
Creating my own table.
