Planning

This weekend we are planning on going sailing!! Yippee --- first time this season. We have only left the dock once. We've actually been UP to the lake a few times. We have invited two other couples to join us on Sunday --- then maybe relax at the club afterward for cocktails and cooking.

In the meantime, my girlfriend and I are in training for two big events. We are doing a triathlon as a team --- she will do the swim and run, and I'm doing the middle part -- the biking. Should be really cool --- loads of hills. I need to do some serious training. I also still want to be ready for a marathon in October --- needs some more long runs. This is all going to take a lot of time and effort....but I'm really excited and so is she.

Let's hope it is good weather this weekend --- !!!

Diva Night

We had a great "Diva Night" --- five of us went to the Capital Repertory Theatre to see Menopause the Musical. Riotously funny and we hired a limo to drive us there. That was hubby's idea --- very cool. I made dinner for all of us --- a light supper of Panini's and salad --- delicious. Everyone enjoyed the meal --- which I put together using a recipe from "cooking light" that I then adapted with my own ingredients. Also made a yummy watermelon salad and tossed salad.

The show was great and everyone coming out of the theatre wanted to know who the celebs were getting into the limo --- very funny.

I'm hoping that it will start a trend with the group I went with that maybe we can do this again sometime soon.
