My Weekend in Lafayette

On Saturday I went down to Lafayette to visit my St. Joe friends.

I got to drive down 65 and see a bunch of this...

and a bunch of this.

One of them recently got a house and was having a cookout. I brought a wonderful veggie tray (which I forgot to take a picture of it), some veggie straws, and some new fat free brownies that I've never tried before. Even though there were plenty of people there not on a diet, they ate them and liked them anyways. I ended up having a hamburger and a little bit of all the stuff I brought and drank water the whole night which I thought wasn't too bad.

I found this at Meijer if you are curious.

I ended up staying the night in Lafayette and hung out with my friends again on Sunday. While they were either at church or sleeping off the effects of last night, I went out to do a little shopping. I didn't have much time, but I went to Gordman's and Wal-Mart. I found some cute stuff to use in my office at work at Gordman's. At Wally World I found High School Musical curtain valences for only $1.00 a piece! I'm gonna spend more money than that to buy tension rods to hang them up!

We got breakfast/lunch/ brunch or whatever you call eating at 11:00 am at Denny's. Here is a confession: I've never been to Denny's before. I heard it was pretty greasy, fatty, and unhealthy. I was able to find something that was high in fiber with healthier sides, so I got it. It was banana pecan pancakes, egg whites, and turkey bacon.

We then went back to Kristen's house and played some Rock Band for a while. When I'm at home and play I usually sing. Several of my friends like to sing and not play the instruments. I was on drums most of the time. I'm not very good at them so I might need to take some time to get better at them before I see them next.

Once again it was time for that drive down 65 back home. I managed to get a picture of the Iroquois River and an interesting advertisement. 

I got the "nice" side in this picture going northbound. If you go southbound, you get the side that says "Hell is Real."

I ended up back home around 5:00, so I didn't get much else done besides watering my garden, a few dishes, and cleaning the kitchen. Here is to a productive week next week with my bathroom reno!
