Well Ben’s parents just left – Mother’s Day round two is complete and was a success!

On the menu was:

• Beer brats
• Burgers
• Fruit Salad with mandarin oranges, banana, pineapple and apples
• Sweet Corn
• Pretzels
• Chips

And of course, Ben’s Mom’s favorite: Corona Light with Lime! We try to please…

My plate was halves of a bunless cheeseburger and brat, some chips and fruit salad – and of course, a corona We all sat out on the back deck in the setting sun and had a great little cookout. It’s times like these when I feel so fortunate that Ben and I both have our parent’s close by. Not many married couples get to spend special days like this with both of their families and we don’t take that for granted. We are very lucky people!

So, the past couple of days have been particularly indulgent for me – which is fine – but I’ll be glad to get back on my regular workout and eating schedule tomorrow.  Until then, here’s to an amazing weekend and an even better Mother’s Day!
