Beer Walks and Talks
Good evening and sorry for the late post!
I have been busy drinking [many bottles of] wine with Kath + Matt + Tate!
T’was a very lovely evening full of food and friends and lively conversation.
The evening started with best intentions and healthy endeavors. Kath met me at my house in the late afternoon to bike to a FREE yoga class! Unfortunately the class was only worth free :(. I suppose we shouldn’t have had great expectations, after all it was free because the teacher is going through the studios teacher training program and it was possibly the very first class she’s ever taught. The biggest issue for us is that it wasn’t our preferred style, which is vinyasa and the class was hatha (basicly that translates to s l o w e r to anyone not fluent in yoga talk). To her credit, she gave great adjustments. To her critique, she way over-explained poses!
We met the husbands back at the house for the mile walk downtown to Market Street Wineshop to do a little Christmas beer tasting. I love tasting with Matt and Kath because they are both really good at describing flavors, never something that has been my strong suit.
Back at home we got to work on dinner, which was a random assortment of what sounded good.
Roasted butternut squash
Twin Oaks Thai Tofu (Matt and Kath’s contribution, they visited the factory last week!)
And Matzo Ball soup!
Most random meal ever? Maybe…
We enjoyed it though :). We also enjoyed breaking into Tate and I’s swelling wine cabinet and chocolate stash ;).
Mid-afternoon I enjoyed a 4 mile walk with this cutie
Her lovely mom, Anna, walked also.
I love walking dates with friends! Even better than coffee dates! (Yoga dates are great too, just not as much time to talk!)
My morning strength training was this 20 minute workout from Exercise TV. This is one of my new favorites, so creative and full body!
Exercise plan fulfilled, yay!
How about you?
