Top of the Mornin'

I was supposed to get up this morning and do a quick 2 mile run on the treadmill with some weights BUT of course I was too tired. I didn't make it to bed until 11:45 p.m. and when the alarm went off at 5:45 a.m. my body just wasn't havin it! So...I got up and studied at work. At least I was some what productive this morning. Yesterday was supposed to be my "rest" day but it looks like I might have 2 rest days in a row now. I am leaving straight from work to Martha's Vineyard for the weekend so there isn't any time for me to fit in a quick run. There are 6 girls going and I am looking forward to a fun filled relaxing weekend with just the ladies. Wine, food, movies, games...can't wait!

I attempted the Pumpkin Chocolate-Peanut Butter Chip Muffins or (whatever they are called) the other night, and yes, of course I screwed them up. I don't know what it is about me and baking but it just doesn't go well with me. At least I attempt...right? Below is a picture of my masterpiece...

As you can see they are a little "sunken in". This is a very special technique that I have mastered called "not baking something long enough". Note to self...READ THE DIRECTIONS! I missed the part in the recipe that indicated these were mini muffins, so I made regular muffins but only cooked them for the mini muffin time. Oh well...they were still pretty tasty. I brought them to my Community Group for church and they seemed to like them. Mush and all!

I am planning a run on the Vineyard tomorrow. I am hoping for some beautiful scenery to keep me going b/c I need to make up for my lost day. Wish me luck. More later...srh
