A Day in the Life...

First of all, I'd like to thank Victoria over at Mission: Food for awarding me the Stylish Blogger Award.  If you haven't been over to Mission: Food, I highly recommend it.  Victoria makes awesome treats and definitely makes me want to pack my bags and move to NYC just to eat at all the crazy good places that Victoria eats.

I figured for today's post I would kind of explain what I do on a productive day.  My most productive day of the week is most definitely Sundays.  I'm usually off of work and so is Andy so we get to run all of the errands we have to run on Sunday (i.e grocery shopping).  So without further ado... a typical Sunday for yours truly...

I wake up to this smiling face.  Andy usually gets up before me and I usually find him studying some IT related thing - he tells me, but honestly, it goes in one and ear and out the other - I'm a bad fiance =)
I check my e-mail, Foodbuzz, etc. etc.
We hop in the Jeep to run around town - it was kind of a drab and rainy Sunday this past week
First stop - Whole Foods
We worked up a hunger after Whole Foods, so we ended up stopping at Moe's for lunch - which I personally think is a tad bit better than Qdoba
I got the Fat Sam fajita plate... the chicken was a little dry, but other than that, pretty good.
I caught him off guard - I think he's in mid-chew.
Then to Kroger for the rest of the grocery shopping - and yes, I usually do sit in the car and watch Andy load the car.  It was raining, so I wasn't about to sit out in that =)
Got home and took the trash out to the back and noticed my garden plot was lookin' in need of some cleaning (trust me, you don't want to see the before picture) - especially since I ordered my seeds/plants last week, so I've got to be prepared!  And I might expand this little plot to double - and yes, my backyard needs some raking, but that's Andy's job, not mine. =)
Came inside and baked a loaf of bread.

Finally sat down to study some Spanish

 And of course, this is when I usually get warn out from the day - and it's only 2 or 3 pm by this time, can you believe it? 

Of course I did other things, like some cleaning of the kitchen and our bedroom, cook dinner, and sleep... but I was way to tired to take any more pictures, hehe. 

Exhausting, I tell you!

What about you guys?  What's your most productive day of the week?  How do you spend your Sundays?

  10. Productive day?? Everyday is productive to me especially when it comes to blogging & replying to comments :) It's feel good to have people visiting your blog & leaving their impression & kind words there. I'm sure u'll agree too. That's the best part of blogging. Hahaha!

    Sundays are just lazing around with family. It's bonding time!

    Thks for sharing these shots & great moments!

  11. Sounds like a great day! I love whole foods and moe's...

    I'm totally with you on the rain thing too ... gotta get in the car :)

    My most productive day of the week, not by choice, is monday. I have the most to do on mondays...but after that I breathe a sigh of relief.
    Sundays are so variable for me, but I try to keep them low key to gear up for monday!
