It’s been awhile since I did a weekend recap post and I had a pretty fun filled one, so today I’m linking up with Katie for Marvelous in My Monday!
I had a cross country meet in Shawano, WI, about 2.5 hours away. I brought some overnight oats with me for the 6:30 AM leave time. Lately I’ve been using this package of chia, hemp, and buckwheat and it’s great!
I warmed up about a mile with a few strides before the race. 
I think there were around 160 girls in the race and I finished 13th with 20:53!
I’m not super happy with my time but I felt pretty good after the race so I think I could have went faster. After the race… Panera!
And of course dessert.
After Panera we headed to the mall for a little shopping.
I bought these adorable measuring cups from Francesca’s! Love that store. I also got this running jacket and a new journal from TJ Maxx! I could spend all day in that store. All the gourmet food/furniture/cute clothes!
I read my book during the 5 hours in the car. It’s “East of Eden” by John Steinbeck and it’s definitely different than my usual kind of reading! I like it though. It’s one of those books that take you through a whole life.
I was hungry when we got home but nothing was sounding good. Lately after races my stomach’s been feeling off! I decided on some homemade bread with half pb/banana half avocado/cottage cheese.
Sunday morning I slept in (glorious) and made pancakes for breakfast!
Bob’s Red Mill whole grain mix topped with almond butter, chia, hemp, buckwheat, banana, and blueberries. I don’t have time for pancakes during the week so I look forward to my weekend pancakes!
I played piano at the church and worked from 12-4 so that was a majority of Sunday. We had Janae’s cream cheese chicken chili when I got home and if you make one chili recipe this year, make this one. SO good.
I made a few bowls of overnight oats for breakfasts, packed lunch, picked out outfits, and then Mom did this.
My weakness.
Well, that’s all I have. Hope everyone has a good Monday!
Wow! 20:53 is amazing!! Great jobs. I’m also impressed that you can read in the car…jealous.
Thanks!! Yeah, reading in the car doesn’t bother me at all. I’m lucky!
Congrats on the race! XOXO
Those measuring cups are so cute! Love!
Right?! Thanks, Rebecca π

Chocolate chip skillet cookie! I linked to the recipe π
Okay, that time ROCKS! It may not be a PR but it is definitely something to be proud of. π I’m craving pancakes SO badly right now but the only ones available are the box mix dining hall kind…yeah no thank you. When I go home I am definitely going to get Bob’s mix and try it out! Have a great Monday. π
It tasted a little bit different than normal buttermilk pancakes but I liked it! Thanks Emma π <3
Hi Yooper Girl! Great job! Glad you had a great weekend! Now, have a great week at school! Cheryl.

Great job at your race! You might not have been happy with your time but you did awesome! π
Thanks Lauren! I am just getting out of a cold too so I bet that made a difference!
I know how that feels. I have set new PRs before but felt a little energy left. I hate that feeling. Just celebrate your accomplishment from this weekend and push yourself harder next time π
Yep! I’m just getting over a cold too so I think that made a difference!
