lent is over!

i know, i shouldn't be that excited
over it... given i made a healthy lifestyle change
for lent, i gave up candy, cookies, chips,
pretty much all junk food.
but i'm so happy it's over!
and to say the least i was successful
for the whole 40 days of lent!!
go me! :P

let's flashback a few blog posts to the one
called 'lent' published on 26 february 2013.
i started it a little late because i was not fully aware
of what lent really was. so my lent ended this past
sunday, 07 april 2013.

it actually was a lot easier than i thought
considering i love my junk foods! every time i wanted
sweets i just reached for the stuff with natural
sugar in it, for instance, fruits! lol!
[it didn't help chris wanted cupcakes, donuts,
and cookies while i was on lent! men! making
everything so damn difficult!]

it's finally over!
i'm enjoying chocolate and cookies again!
nom nom nom!

date nights in a jar [march]

hello lovelies!
yep you guessed it...
date nights in a jar for march!
[*hooray*] :)

here's the picture:


1. all things vegetarian date [i know it's hard to read]
chris and i went to a newer restaurant
downtown called proof. it was a mediterranean place
but had vegetarian options. we couldn't cheat
because our stick said all things! chris ordered roasted eggplant
and i ordered falafel. we both dislike eggplant but
everything there was soooo good! we plan to return.

2. enjoy a scenic drive
we drove up to ledges state park [about 30 minutes
north of us] and took the backroads
instead of the highway there. it was nice and relaxing.
and a pretty decent day for being winter/spring
season. we used to love to just drive around in our
early days of dating.

3. go shopping and surprise each other [with gifts]
we split up at jordan creek mall and gave
ourselves a limit of no more than $100.00, i got him
the tomb raider game on ps3 and a mint colored
button up from hollister! i heart mint!
he got me a bikini that i really wanted!

4.body painting with icing
lol! this was interesting! i looked up edible
body paint/icing online and saw that there
was some at spencer's gifts, so chris and i
went to go pick some up. :P
[i know there are some at vs but i wanted
something else]. it was a fun night!

[6 days left for lent]
