HAPPY WEEKEND, YA’LL!! I’m SO GLAD Friday is finally here!

Last night’s girls dinner was ahhhhhhhmazing.

Just check out Jeni’s table setting:

My friends and I like to wine and dine each other

I brought over my favorite Tuscan white bean dip:

Along with some Mary’s crack and some roasted ratatouille veggies:

(I half-roasted them before I got there and finished them in Jeni’s oven so they were ready with the meal)

Jeni made some INCREDIBLE shrimp scampi with wheat pasta and we also had salad with walnuts, green apple, dried cranberries and balsamic, unpictured bruschetta with goat cheese and vino

It was unbe-freaking-lievable. You girls know I love my shrimp

For dessert, I brought over some of the Super Charge Me cookies I made earlier:

And Jeni made the fluffiest, lightest cheesecake I’ve ever had. It was like cheesecake meets angel food cake:

With fresh berries….. Mmmmmmm…..

We had a lovely meal and lovelier company as usual

I’m pretty excited to report that I didn’t have nightmares from the wine last night!! I think a huge reason for this was that I started drinking earlier in the evening (at 6:30), was classy and sipped it instead of gulping it down, and only had a glass and a half. I had quite wonderful dreams and slept like a baby. So bring on the vino! Haha.

To rewind to yesterday’s lonchi, I made one of Gena’s recipes: Raw Creamy Zucchini Soup

I loved how green it was!!!

I altered it quite a bit by adding a clove of garlic, used flax oil, dried dill, sea salt and pepper, and about quadruple the miso it called for, and it was GLORIOUS.

So creamy and delish…

Well I’m off to finally catch up on your blogs (mayjah apologies from slacker over here), clean the upstairs, hit up the gym, train some peeps, and then who knows

Have a happy Friday!

xoxo,
