Get into the groove

"Boy you've gotta prove your love to meeeeeeeeee"


The prior sentence was sung to a choir made up of cats screaching and dogs wailing 


You know cause i'm singing


i sang like an angel in my dream - this totally looks like
me no?
I CAN'T sing


The above 3 words are the biggest understatement of the century


Once i had a dream that i sang a Sarah MaClaughlin song to a circle of people and in the dream i sang so well people eventually joined in and it was the sweetest sound


And then i woke up feeling so at peace and happy


It goes down in history as one of Donnas most favourite dreams ever


But since i'm listening to music right now, went to a concert Saturday night, and am going to Zumba to shake my booty to music tonight i have music on my mind


Or in my mind


Or... nevermind


*hanging head in blonde blogger confusion shame*


Subject change time


So how was everyones weekend?


It was pretty crazy in the L-S household


But as i often like to do on Monday Recap!  I'll let the photos tell you the story just make sure you humm along while you read


Perhaps Party Rock Anthem by LMFAO?


Just cause i'm a wee bit obsessed with that song right now, just ask my zumba girls, i'll start doing the routine to that song anywhere


FRIDAY
Went for a run - forgot compression sleeve - at exactly 5km stop and limp home yelling obscenities and cursing letting BF run ahead with the water  
This is BF's i'm sexy and i'm shopping in the Bulk Barn face
My movies snack - 310 calories of British chocolate, mmmmmmm
 LRT MOVIE REVIEW: The Hangover


Like i said Friday i wasn't too excited about this movie, i was excited to see it with our friends Amy and Ryan and it turned out to be funnier then i though but i saw way too many peepee's then one ever needs to see in a movie - i lost count at like 6, yes i was counting :oD  So if you thought the first movie was too crazy then skip this one for sure!


SATURDAY:
Started my day with a dark chocolate cherry breakfast cookie, holy yummmmm!  Have i mentioned i spent  $10 on cherries the other day? Shhh don't tell BF apparently he doesn't like cherries :oP
The girl on this ball totally mocks me as i shake my way through Physique 57
Hardwood debate ends with a compromise that makes me grumpy, guess i can't always get my way :o( Must trust BF's judgement though.... hmph!
HOCKEYFEST Concert!!!
Taking pics with Heather, not too sure where we are looking :o) 
Yup, this is my man, i'm so proud!
Mmmm fresh warm Kettle Corn!
Instead of getting annoyed that Dave insists on sticking out his tongue for 87% of photos i join in 
Matt & Nat!
Clint & Heather!
Forget silly candid photos - move on to mmmmini donuts!
Finger Eleven = great music!
Then we got free VIP bracelets - yay!
Not sure what happened with this photo - looks cool though
Three Days Grace was just okay, super loud and lots of talking - meh!
 SUNDAY
We must have crashed when we got home because we were still wearing bracelets when we woke up!
Discovered a doodle sleeping on my butt :o)
Figured after a REALLY hard Spartan class at the gym this morning i deserved a wholewheat pizza - didn't eat the whole thing, definitely shared with BF,  a bit ;o)
While rolling my calves i notice the sexy tan line i developed watching BF play baseball today,  this is hot
Start to decide what i will blog about today and get distracted that someone found my blog via popeye aint got abs??? teeheheheeeeee
Well thats the quickie summary version of my weekend!


I did make a kick ass dinner Friday night and i want to share a recipe with you

Mmm that breakfast cookie looks positively decadent....and I LOVE kettle corn and those veggies look amazing too! My weekend wasn't all that exciting...i did fit in some hula hooping in my backyard in my bathing suit ;P...and made some delicious (and healthy) cupcakes for my Aunt's bday (expect to see them on HHH tomorrow).

Hula hooping in your bathing suit sounds like a perfect summer activity
Just saw the cupcakes and they look AMAZING!!!!
What a fun filled weekend! I love the looks of your breakfast cookie :)

As for the music, I listen to a variety so my fav would depend on genre. For exercise I am loving J-Lo's new song, country would be Crazy Girl by Eli Young Band, and I have been playing alot of Ray Lamontagne lately!

I love J-Lo's new song as well!
I'm going to have to look up Ray Lamontagne - thanks for the good music tip Helen :o)
I'm not sure if it's my favorite, but I'm def loving Party Rock Anthem tooooooo! It's such a good-mood jam. By the way, that pizza would make my day... better yet, my week. Looks delish.

Pizza can solve all the worlds problems imho :oD - glad i'm not the only one loving Party Rock Anthem :o)

Melted bubbly cheese, mmmm - lol, i have to put all cheese items under the grill to make sure its light brown and bubble - perfection!
That breakfast cookie looks kick ass!! And so do those veggies! I think I must try those immediately! I said that about your vegan chocolate chip cookies and I STILL haven't gotten there yet!

Excitement of my weekend was staining our deck....Pretty soon it will no longer look like we live in a trailer park!

I'm thinking up a spin on those cookies too Katie so stay tuned :o)
Staining your deck sounds like fun!!! Anything outside when the weather is good is a great time!
