I worked tonight at Dario's Brasserie in Dundee. For any readers who are in the Omaha area, PLEASE check this local restaurant out (4920 Underwood Ave.) Local meats, produce, 80 Belgian beers, and a genuine Bosnian genius in the kitchen make this place a must for anyone looking to have a great dinner experience! I love seeing how satisfied people are when they get done with a meal at Dario's. I was so inspired that after my shift I had a cheese plate and a Stella to celebrate! :)
As for a workout today, I rode my bike to school and was preparing for a long bike ride when my hamstring tightened up so abruptly it felt as though someone had me by the marionette strings! OUCH! I decided to take today as my one rest day this week (minus the few miles on the bike) in order to prepare for my 6 mile run tomorrow. I have saved my last apple for a peanut butter and apple wrap tomorrow morning before the run. It is only my second time running this distance, so wish me luck!
Please please make these incredibly easy cookies, they are soooo delicious! Here is the recipe straight from Mama Pea's blog:
