Lotsa pictures weekend

Hello!

Hope everyone had a great weekend. The weather has been beautiful in MO : ) I just finished writing an Examiner article on sodium and now I?m having some relaxing ?me? time doing one of my favorite things ? blogging!

Here are some highlights of our weekend ?

I discovered a new bar (made by Mrs. May?s Naturals) at my grocery store. A Trio bar ? very similar to Kind Bar, tastes great, and only 99 cents a bar!! I?ll take that, thank you!

As we often do, on Saturday we went to Kansas City. The weather was so beautiful and we spent some time simply driving around, windows down, while people watching.

Dinner

We decided to eat at Bristol Seafood Grill (pictures are little dark because by the time we got there, well ? it was dark, ha).

We ate outside and it was so neat. The weather was absolutely perfect, lighting just right, and wonderful atmosphere. To top it all off, there was an open fire outside and we got to sit right below it (that?s what?s glowing above Erik?s head). It permeated the perfect amount of heat to counteract the small chilly breeze.

We started out with shrimp cocktails which tasted great. I love shrimp cocktail.

I had the king salmon with grilled asparagus and mashed sweet potatoes. Again ? YUM! It just doesn?t get much better than grilled asparagus, sweet potatoes and salmon.

 Whole Foods Pick-up

Some random things we picked up at Whole Foods (because we can?t go to KC without stopping there;)

Some bars to try ?

Puffed cereal. I love this stuff because it?s only around 60 calories for 1 cup, no sugar and no salt. Unlike most other cereals that have a lot of sugar, I can eat a huge bowl full with some fruit, stevia, cinnamon, almond milk and feel great about it ; )

And some hemp seeds.

When we got home we watched a movie and doted on our dogs for a little  bit.

What did you do this weekend??
