Birthday Stuff

November 9, 2008

Yesterday was such a great day – although the rain came and put a damper on our original plans, the husband and I really got to enjoy a great day!

When I got back from my dress fitting and food shopping, I decided I should probably eat something substantial to hold me over until dinner.  I had a lovely mixture of Fiber One, Kashi Heart to Heart, pumpkin seeds, banana, and skim milk.  It definitely hit the spot!

We decided to go to the mall and walk around there and then I let him choose where we could go to dinner at – he selected Chilli‘s which I was excited about because it meant that I could try the whole “guiltless” options that I read about in Hungry Girl all the time!  Bill loves the boneless buffalo wings there so we started with them – I had three and they were ultra hot!  For my entree I selected the Guiltless Chicken Sandwich.  Believe it or not, it was actually really yummy!  I LOVED how there were black beans on the side and I gobbled them up first :)

After dinner we were stuffed so we decided to head home and watch a movie.  We chose 88 minutes, which was a really good suspenseful movie but REALLY freaky and sick.  Then we watched a whole bunch of SNL in an effort to stay up until midnight when the husband’s official birthday began.  At 11:59, I surprised him with a Reese’s Peanut Butter mini cheesecake that I picked up from the bakery earlier and I sang Happy Birthday.  I forgot to take a picture of the dessert in all of it’s glory and remembered to once we started picking at it haha – it was delicious!

Now I’m off to start making a surprise birthday breakfast in bed and then we are heading out for a fun day.  I’ll be back tonight with the recap!  Have a great one :)
