Hey everyone! I just love the weekends! And I love when I get up early. I woke Saturday morning and made it to a spin class that I haven’t been to in such a long time. It was nice to get those legs going again. This teacher plays really good music. She did a lot of MJ and a random mix of Elton John, Black Eyed Peas, and Beyonce..it worked though.
Since there was a lot of yummy eats this weekend, I thought I’d share a few of my favorites with you!
My mom is out of town so I met my sister and dad at one of my favorite spots, The Sunrise Cafe. I have blogged about it before. It is so tasty and there is such a variety. Today I thought I would try a “create your own” omelet. I had my omelet with green peppers, spinach, and avocado.
It came with a side of fruit and a bagel with butter, which I split with my dad.
All together now…
I love supporting smaller restaurants and the many times I have been there, have never been disappointed.
Check out my sister’s blueberry pancakes! I had a taste, they did not disappoint.
After breakfast, I headed to the grocery store. Since it has been a while, I thought I would share with you my goods for the week.
- bananas
- blackberries
- broccoli
- carrots
- green peppers
- 2 bags lettuce (spring mix)
- mushrooms
- garbanzo beans
- organic milk
- kashi crackers
- dark chocolate
- variety of KIND bars
- whole wheat pizza dough
- whole wheat sandwich thins
- granola
- gum
I got quite a bit of produce on sale which is always exciting. I am the biggest dork but I plan out all my meals for the week on Sunday. I try to prep as much as I can on Sunday so it saves me time during the week. Trust me though, it pays off.
On Sunday, I started my morning off with my usual jump rope class. My shin was bothering me again so I have to make sure to stretch it out good.
For lunch, I met a friend at Crazy Pita. I have known my friend Michele since second grade. It’s nice to still keep in touch with friends you’ve known for so long.
I ordered a chicken pita with a feta salad on the side. It also came with a side of, you guessed it, pita bread.
With a side of hummus. Can we just say delicious!

The pita bread was so soft. I have had many a hummus dip in my days, but this was was so thick and creamy.
The feta salad had lots of crunchy cucumbers and tomatoes. It tasted so fresh.
Don’t the weekends just fly by! I am going to get my food prepped for the week and hang out at my parents for a bit. There might be some frozen yogurt in my future. My tummy couldn’t be happier. Hope you all had a great weekend!
Did you have any good eats this weekend?

Glad you had a nice weekend! The Sunrise Cafe reminds me of a breakfast/brunch/lunch restaurant here in Ohio called “First Watch”. Actually I swear the picture on the menu is the same!
I had some great eats this weekend (birthday weekend!) my favorite being the sushi I ate. It was amazing.
Have a great evening! And, enjoy that fro yo
Everything looks and sounds delicious! I love supporting smaller restaurants, too. I pretty much avoid chain restaurants, in all honesty!
I made some wonderful muffins and hubby and I shared some faitas from our favorite Mexican restaurant last night. I made salmon with a soy and honey marinade topped with a mango black bean salsa — really yummy!
Your weekend sounds great, glad you had fun. And well done for attending the spinning class, sounds like a lot of fun!
It was my Bday weekend so I ate tons of goodies. Still recovering from it.
This weekend I made peanut butter cupcakes with a chocolate ganache from my new cookbook vegan cupcakes take over the world. They turned out so tasty!
Is Crazy pita new? I wish I knew about that place before I moved since that food looks so good. I also have never been to the Sunrise cafe. Looks good there too.
Yeah, it is at the District. I never even noticed it until yesterday.
I did have a great weekend, thanks! I ate a cannoli. yum! Haha, I love your jumprope class! Another reminder that I need to buy one.
Looks like a great weekend! I had the best marinated crab claws and a mini margherita pizza at dinner Friday night.
