So besides the Texas Tech vs Texas game on Saturday, this week has been pretty OK. Stressfull to say the very least but I finally feel like it's lightening up. Yesterday all my Business Stats homework was due, I took my Marketing test, I took my Sports Nutrition test today, had my kitchen manager conference for my dinner series class yesterday so that will be over tomorrow -- thank goodness I feel like my load is finally lifting! I do need to get my butt to Stats tutoring though for my test next week, and we have more homework due Tuesday but that will be more manageable now that everything else will have calmed down so yay for that:)
The good thing about the game on Saturday though was the DELICIOUS food!! It probably (definitely) wasn't the best thing I could have eaten as far as fat content, but the brisket and pork shoulder were nothing short of amazing. My homemade bbq sauce was also a big hit which made my heart smile:)
Friday night, my family and Patrick's family went to La Diosa (a wine bar here in Lubbock) and drank about 4 pitchers of their sangria (you might be able to order it over the phone; here is the website -- http://www.ladiosacellars.com/aboutus.html )-- it's amazing. So if you like sangria, I'd definitely see about ordering a few bottles. If you live in the Lubbock area though, you can get it at Market Street for half the price at $7.50 a bottle. At La Diosa, they add a can of sprite and an orange slice to the mix. I personally like it all alone with an orange wheel over ice:) It does have a way of making me feel glowy and giggly! I absolutely LOVED having my family and Patrick's family in town!
Momma took me grocery shopping on Friday and on our little trip we got some PB2. I've had it before, and used to eat it like it was an addiction, but you know how sometimes when you eat too much of something in a short time, you don't really want it again for a LONG time after that? Well, that's what happened. However, if you're a peanut butter lover, (I'm more of an almond butter or cashew butter girl myself but still thought I'd give it a try and you'll see why--) this is an awesome product. It's compressed peanuts in the form of powder. They get rid of all the oils and you can get it in plain peanut butter or chocolate peanut butter (I've only had the chocolate which is delicious). At 45 calories for 2 Tbsp, and 10 from fat, you can't really get any better. It's still simple ingredients which is always important.
Hope you had a great week since I didn't get to wish you a good one last Sunday, and I hope this one is even better.:)
