Take me to the dessert
I mean desert ๐
Weโre at the airport right now on our way to beautiful AZ!!!
Sorry Iโve been a posting slacker today- itโs been quite a frenzy over here!
I started the morning early with a 4 mile run and weights with Jeni, followed by a juice, a packing extravaganza, getting the oil changed in my car, and finally making the drive to the Jax airport with the pilot.
On the way, we got Subwizzle.
I had a veggie on honey oat with every veggie except for pickles (nutritionally-devoid iceberg lettuce, tomatoes, olives, cucumbers, onion, extra jalapenos and banana peppers) and mustard.
The pilot had two 6 inch subs: a meatball and an oven roasted chicken
We made it to J-ville in perfect time and on our first flight to Chicago I got a little airsick since it was super bumpy. I was feeling a little green, so I grabbed my neck noodle and slept like a baby.
Guess who we got to meet in Chicago?!?
She came to the airport and had a lovely picnic with us ๐
She even brought me BAIGAN BHARTHA since I missed out on having it this week!
Holy foodgasm, it was amazing.
The menu:
That girl knows the way to my heart, for sure ๐
And an Italian beef sandwich with sweet peppers for the pilot.
I had such a blasty talking to Mara (who is just as wonderful and sweet as she seems on the blog) and the food was to-die-for. I loved gabbing with her about life, fashion, her upcoming wedding and the blog world. Thanks again for meeting up and feeding us, Mara!
She also gave us a glorious house salad that the pilot munched and a pack of veggies that came with one of the meals.
I squirted lemon juice on the veggies and devoured them.. especially the large spicy green peppers
You know I love my spicy ๐
Our flight was delayed (shocker, eh??) so weโre still chilling at the airport. Not a bar in sight, or I would have some vino in hand ๐ Weโre hoping to make it into Phoenix tonight โit will be a late one- and the madre, nana and little bro are picking us up from the airport and driving us to Tucson.
Any Tucson bloggies, please let me know if youโd like to meet up this weekend (if you havenโt already)! Iโm thinking of planning something Sunday afternoon ๐
See ya tomorrow from my homeland ๐
xoxo,

Hang in there with your ridiculously long travel day. We used to live in Myrtle Beach, SC. No direct flights anywhere, had to drive to Raleigh if we wanted half a chance of something decent, adding hours to the already long day. Then a layover and more waiting to board flight #2, hoping it's not delayed, but it always is. Been there girl..it sucks. Here's to seeing your family…soon!
That was so nice of Mara! It looks good, too…
Have a great time in Tucson – it's one of my favorite places. Especially for food! Happy eating ๐
how great is mara huh?
I loved meeting her in person…
I had SO much fun meeting you and the Pilot! I'm glad you enjoyed your short stay here…and you HAVE to come back so I can take you around! Hope you finally made it out to AZ!
Glad you're on your way! Hope you made it there safely. Love your veggies in the airport ๐
What a great road trip and how cool that you met up with Mara. It's so perfect of her to bring you Indian food….haha shes knows you all too well! ๐
Have a blast sweet girl!
The indian food looks great! That's so awesome to have someone to bring you food at the airport during your layover!
have a great trip at home!!
Oy, I get nauseous just thinking about a bumpy flight. Hope the next one is better!
Yay, Indian food! What a sweetheart. Man, your husband can eat, hehe ๐ Have fun in AZ!
I hope the rest of your trip was less bumpy! I hate flight delays…
Yum – so glad you got your Indian, that was so sweet of Mara.
Enjoy your trip!!
So fun that you got to meet Mara AND get some Indian food ๐
Hang in there with the flights, my dear!!

Have an amazing time in AZ–stay cool!
aww i'm so glad you guys got to meet up!! Hope you're having fun in AZ!!!
I REALLY wish Subway would get rid of iceberg lettuce!
The Subways here (at least the ones I have been to) totally have spinach that you can get instead of iceberg. One reason Tucson is better than everywhere else haha.
Aw I really wish I could have met up with you! It looks like you had a great time with Mara and the Pilot and had some fab Indian food :o) Have an AMAZING time in Tucson – I wish we were going at the same time! Hopefully I can meet you on the return route!
Have a great time!! that food looks delicious!
That Indian Food looks amazing! It's my current favorite cuisine. Enjoy and have fun!
