Life is good.

This weekend is good. Full of fun times.

I headed to Life is Good fest yesterday afternoon. It was a blast.
There were so many freebies. We had our fill of food and freebies. I also had some delicious beers. I found out that Magic Hat #9 is my new favorite (ok not my favorite because Guinness holds that place in my heart.)

We had some fun before the music happened. Lots of funny photos.


I had a chickpea fritter sandwich from the Clover food truck. Finally! I've been talking about this silly truck forever now and I found it!
It was a really awesome day. A festival full of good vibes... this is right up my alley. Plus the whole festival is about doing good for people and the planet. I love that!

We also watched some music. I'm super hooked on the Avett Brothers. They were the whole reason I wanted to attend this festival. They were incredible! I was screaming, dancing and jumping like a crazy person.
I love a good Banjo.

We had the best time. We finished up by screaming and yelling the whole car ride home. It was a serious positive vibe experience.

This morning I woke up still feeling positive. I went for a run. It was terrible. Honestly. I learned the following lessons:
1- Don't eat a big breakfast and run 30 mins after.
2- Drink plenty of water before. I cup of coffee and a swig of water won't work.

But at least I got out there and did it. I packed money for a coffee stop on my way home. I stopped at 1369 of course. Delightful per usual.

I'm getting ready now to head out to day 2 of Life is Good. Life really is good.  Check out what I got in the mail.
I received a free sample of mascara and lip stain from InStyle Magazine. Awesome!

I had a little baby lunch today so I could save room for beer and Lara Bar and Chobani samples!

Are you feeling good today?

Screaming for the weekend

I scream. You Scream. We all scream Hoorah for the weekend!

I have a nice little weekend planned. It started out with a bang.

Advice of the day: Do not put your cellphone in your back pocket. Ever.
I went to the hospital for coffee and well... short story- dropped my phone in the toilet. Shoot. It was not looking good for my little buddy. I was devastated. And I don't have $199 to buy a new one at the Apple Store.

Instead of freaking out too much last night I had some dinner first with Ashly at Margarita's.

These little baby quesadillas were awesome. Then me and Ashly headed to this nice little Mall. Ok it was not nice. There is a shoe store called Blaze where shoes cost $2.99. A one stop shop. You can also purchase a bright pink bra for $2.99. Awesome. We clearly didn't find anything to our liking but we did decide to see what a hurricane felt like.
Winds at over 70mph. Woah! The fun times had to end and we returned home.

Then it was time to tend to my phone.


Here it is resting in a bowl of rice.

Does the rice technique work? I'm not sure. A lot of people swear by it. I asked the iStore if they thought it worked. Her response "Maybe. But you might just get rice stuck in your phone."
I let it sit by itself for awhile. Then I gave in and gave my phone a rice bath. Did it work? No idea but my phone stopped making crazy noises. Amen!

After the excitement of my phone working, I decided I should hit the gym. I was a little lazy at the gym but at least I went! I came home the hungriest monster but needed coffee first. Thank you 1369!

Coffee and a bowl of rice. My cell phone was placed back in this bowl after the photo.

I made some lunch. A quick lunch due to my roaring stomach!
I enjoyed some mini triscuits and hummus. I also made some cole slaw mix, broccoli, galirc, faux chicken and peanut sauce. All in a frying pan with some olive oil. YUM!!

Now I am off to get ready to head to the Life is Good Fest! I am looking forward to some killer live music (Avett Brothers!!) and some beers in a large field. Don't be too jealous!

Hope your Life is as good as mine today!
