Productive and Fun Weekend

I had a super great weekend November 22-24th.  There was nothing in particular that made it special except for the fact that I didn't have anywhere to go and the whole weekend was on my terms.  Sometimes you just have one of those weekends and this was one of them.

FRIDAY:

Friday started out awesome as Carrie and I both had pink hoodies on.  Oh, we sit right next to each other too.


I made an awesome organic, grass-fed steak salad for dinner.  So.delicious. 


I got my monthly essential oils order on Friday as well.  Fuzzer was just as excited. I can't believe I haven't talked to you guys yet about essential oils.  That day will come soon. 


SATURDAY: 

This would be the last day I would see this car.  I sold it.  I should have sold it months and months ago but I just didn't get to it.  Craigslist is the best.  Goodbye, Killer Bee.  



I got to see the new $100 bills.  I thought they were fake and had to verify with Michael before I accepted them from the buyer.  That shows you how often I have a $100 bill in my possession.  


I successfully ate a pomegranate.  I had never eaten a pomegranate until earlier in the week.  I bought it a cup of them seeded already and I thought they were strange.  Juicy but crunchy.  Turns out I love them. How I went this long in life without eating a pomegranate, I don't know.  Have you eaten one before?  I've had another one since this weekend and I have two more on my counter waiting for me.  Good thing they're in season from September to January because I plan on buying a bunch.


It's a little bit of work to get the seeds out but it's worth it.  Watch out for your clothes though.  Those puppies stain everything.  


I wrapped 85% of my Christmas presents.  Yep, I started shopping in late September here and there and man, does it feel good to be pretty much done.  Just a couple of last minute things and I can sit back and enjoy the holiday season with no stress.  I can't say I've ever had my presents wrapped a week before Thanksgiving and before the tree is up.

Sounds like a great weekend!
I've eaten Pom's my entire life, my used to clean them for my brother and I when we were younger, then he made us start doing it ourselves. It's pretty custom that he gets a case of them every year and makes my brother and I split it. so I guess it's fair to say I was eating them before it was cool :)

I knew you were way ahead of the rest of us, Ang. :) My mom's eaten them for a long time as well but they just looked like so much work to eat them!
