Happy Friday! Hope your day is going along smoothly…and hopefully you have some fun weekend plans!
This weekend I have a 12 mile run with my running group, followed by a brunch date with an old friend and mostly relaxing all weekend! I thought the boyfriend was going to have to go out of town for work but turns out he will actually be here so I am extra happy.
A few things I am loving this week:
-So around this time of year the famous State Fair of Texas comes to town and I always look forward to it! The boo and I went out there last night for a little bit of weeknight fair fun. I always look forward to playing some games, getting some salt water taffy, and of course a little tasting and music in the wine garden!
We also went to the Midway to play some games and E pretty much won everything! He is a pro at basketball…I knew those long arms were good for something…
The fair is KNOWN for their famous fried foods (fried BUTTER, fried oreos, fried margaritas…anything you can think of. I am not even kidding…these things do exist.
I have to admit that I have tried the fried food there but I had to refrain last night. Honestly my poor tummy cannot handle it. I did however, snag me some cotton candy! That stuff is my favorite. Cotton candy and vino = my equivalent to decadent fried food.
–I loved reading this post earlier in the week…we all need a little senseless joy in our lives, now don’t we?
–This…needs to be posted somewhere where I can see it…every.day.
–Oh, and fleece-lined leggings? Someone tell me where I can find these?!! Must have for winter.
–These cheddar cracker chips…so good…especially with hummus!
–Travel smell goods…so great to have on the go…like when you have to shower at the gym…give you a little something to look forward to!
What are you up to this weekend? Have you been to any fall festivals/carnivals/fairs in your area? What is the craziest fried food you have EVER eaten? What is your favorite thing to eat with hummus?

Hummus on any veggie! Red pepper sticks with garlic Hummus is my fave. We got a little deep fryer for our wedding and went a little wild but I can’t remember anything besides mozzarella sticks and chicken nuggets. I get a little sick just thinking about that phase!
mmm red pepper sticks with hummus sounds so good!!
I have fleece lined tights that I got from Athleta last year (in a fun PURPLE color!). They are called “Polartec Power Stretch Tight” and they’re super comfy.
Nice!! I want a pair! I will have to look into that…thx!
State fairs! Yes, you’re so right, great thing about this time of year.
Fleece lined leggins, hmm they seem kind of roasty toasty to me. I want a report:)
I hope to find some and will definitely report back! 🙂
Fried Latte?! How do you even?! Yes, a fo’sho belly ache:-(
I think my cold Michigan booty needs some fleece lined leggings though. That I can get down with. And cotton candy! With vino?! I think that made my heart sing a little!
Tell me about it! I just can’t with the crazy fried stuff. And I will definitely let you know if I run into the fleece leggings!
