the final taste

Hi babes

such a quiet night in the house tonight.  Not minding it at all.  I’ve been enjoying the time by myself for a while! its refreshing…:)

this afternoon though was a complete success.

Before heading out for my run, i picked myself out one heck of a crispy gala apple! o holy heck! MMMM bit right into it!

I got all geared up and set off.  I wasn’t setting my phone stop watch, so i made sure to record the time of when i left the house so that i could see how long i was gone for.

i’m so techie! a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do right?

I was 5 minutes ahead of schedule.  ( i said earlier i was leavin at 3:15)

i made it to my uncles house where the fam was havin a bbq in about 37 minutes (3.73 miles)  they actually live down the street from us, so i planned my route around their house.  It was glorious.  My knee wasn’t hurting till the very very end, and i felt so amazingly strong the entire time! yahooooooo!

when i got to the house, i chugged 2 water bottles  and snacked on some apps…hummus and veggies, but by the time i got there almost all the veggies were gone

Dinner wasn’t soon after that.  I enjoyed myself a charred hot dog with an arnold as the bun (i like mine extra crispy mmmmmm) a load of salad, a tomato and onion salad that my aunt makes (its so simple, all you do is cut up toms and onions and let it all meld together and call it a salad, eventually the tomatos give off so much juice and it gets soupy)  its amazing!!!

Dessert i made myself one heck of a fruit platter.  There was watermelon, the crunchiest grapes EVER, and raspberries(i forgot how much i love these little guys).  also cheesecake, and rice pudding (i HATE rice pudding…)

All in all it was an amazing time! love my family

I was feelin real tired, so sissy drove me home while she went out with the bf…

This leads me to relaxin and enjoyin me time!!!

I FINALLY got around to trying the 4th and final flavor of my Goji Gourmet cookies.  Orange MintChip! even before trying them, i set myself up for not liking them because of the name.  I personally LOVE fresh oranges, but am not a fan of infused orange flavors in food.  So with that notion i wasn’t expecting to like it.

Boy was i wrong.  I LOVED it!!!!!! the orange flavor was not that powerful, which i liked, and the mint flavor was glorious!  to me it almost tasted just like a thin mint cookie with the slightest bit of orange!!!  Def a 7 1/2

you may or may not still be able to see the time on my hand…wooops..

Now that i’ve tried all the Goji Cookies i must say that i didn’t dislike any (i mean how could i?)

I’m going to rank them from which i liked best to least (so hard) 1 being the best and 4 being the least best(i need an grammar class…stat)

  1. Almond Oat
  2. Cherry Cacao
  3. Orange MintChip
  4. Ginger Walnut

An again i want to thank Allison again for sending me the samples!!!!   You can follow Goji Gourmet on Twitter Here

Alrighty babes, i’m gettin sleepy and i think i’m going to lay down.  Tomorrow is filled with some much need to do errands, and hopefully another BBQ!

Love ya!!!

What are your plans for tomorrow?!?!
