Hey friends! I’m feeling all the THREE DAY WEEKEND feels right now, so somewhere in-between euphoria and elation. This was an unexpected holiday for me since I’m on elective but still doing clinical stuff (and the hospital is obviously never closed), so I just assumed I’d have to go in. But the attending must have thought we looked super burnt out or something, so he took pity on us and gave us Monday off!

I’m still trying to figure out what to do with all this free time. Definitely going to get a new pair of glasses since I’ve had my current pair since I was in college (which, not to date myself, was approximately a decade ago). Time for an upgrade, especially since my current pair no longer has nose pads and is basically falling apart at the seams.

The.Boy and I are also going to have a much-needed child-free date night (yay for having brothers who love your kid almost as much as you do!) and I plan on dedicating a big chunk of time to figuring out what birthday cake I’m going to make for myself next weekend. I may be totally basic and just go for the Milk Bar birthday cake but I’m also definitely open to suggestions. Leave them in the comments!

This week’s meal plan is full of fun and healthy meals, so definitely check it out below. Happy eating!

    Spent the weekend drinking and eating too much. Came home yesterday and the one pot quinoa was a perfect quick and healthy welcome home.
