Hello hello hello and how is your weekend going? Mine has been pretty busy but has also allowed for some workouts and downtime which I love. Friday night was one of my best friends, Alexis’ birthday. Every year I always look forward to Thanksgiving and I also know that Alexis’ birthday is right after the holiday which is always fun.
Saturday included a great workout at the gym (um, ten minutes on the stair master is enough to make me feel like I haven’t worked out since 2001-but that’s for another day) and baking some pumpkin ‘cookies’ that were thrown together with some random ingredients I had on hand:
I mean, I have to say, for such a random mixture, I think these ‘cookies’ turned out pretty well. I like how chewy they are in the center — but if you like really sweet cookies, these probably aren’t for you. They’re more like pumpkin biscuits with a little hint of honey. I used wayyyy too much flour. So until I perfect these, I don’t think posting the recipe will do anyone any good!
Saturday night included a get together at my friend Tina’s before going out in Queens for the evening. It was so nice to spend time with some girls I hung out with regularly in high school and we all had so much to catch up on that we didn’t wind up ordering our dinner until 10:00. It was SO worth it.
One of the luckiest parts of my life is that some of my best friends are still my friends from when I was little or in middle school/high school. I think that’s pretty rare.
Now I’m off to get a quick workout in before heading to see The Nutcracker with my friend Analeesa! Enjoy the rest of your Sunday 
Question: Do you still have friends from childhood or high school? Do you keep in touch regularly?
Have fun at The Nutcracker! That sounds so fun. Going to see a Christmas-themed show is definitely something that I should add to my Christmas bucket list!

What a fun weekend! I love it when I can spend so much time with friends
My best friend from high school is still one of my best friends today. She goes to med school on the other side of the state, so we only get to see each other around Christmas, but we pick up right where we left off…I absolutely cherish our time together, and I can’t WAIT to see her in a few weeks
