it's a beautiful day in this neighborhood...

I woke up to Mr. Roger's tunes in my head, haha, and because of it kicked off my day in an unbelievably good, almost annoyingly good, good mood! Happy 20th Birthday to me! I can hardly wrap my head around the fact that I've been alive for two entire decades. I'm so thankful for how lucky I've been in the past 20 years, years spent with so many wonderful people and so many incredible memories, and for my exciting future, I even have even more opportunities for fun and happiness to come. Wow :). Anyway, here's a recap of yesterday, hopefully my laptop will be ready tonight so I can put my pictures up... Started off with another bowl of PB Banana Flax Oatmeal with a mug of Cafe au Lait (exhausting day!), had another delish Hummus Veggie Sammie (even better than the one yesterday) with hummus, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, cucumbers, and onions with a bag of Cherries and Grapes for dessert, an Apple Pie Larabar was my pre-workout snack that I ate around 5, I ended up staying late to help out but fit in a 20-minute strength routine, Then I had a dinner of a mediocre Salad and 1.5 slices of Spinach Pizza, a bowl of Blueberries & a triangle of Dark Chocolate finished off my long day on a high note, and finally I stayed up late hanging out with my best friend and baking Carrot Pineapple Sunshine Muffins from Veganomicon! Succesful Wednesday in my book :). I haven't tried the muffins yet but I'm saving one for dessert tonight and I can't wait. My "special day" will consist of a shorter day of work, Sushi dinner at home with the family, my muffin, and hopefully some plans at the day's end! And tomorrow the celebration continues with more good times and friends! I'm spending the day in the city for the day, having my belated birthday dinner at Spring Streets Natural- http://www.springstreetnatural.com/, and finally seeing the much anticipated Sex & the City Movie. Until then... hope everyone has an amazing an May 29th to everyone (it's one of the best days of the year ;)!
