Pretzel Hunting in Spring

Because I knew it was going to be in the mid 60s this Sunday, and sunny, we planned on taking Maddie to the English Garden after our workout. Not only did we want to enjoy the weather while it lasted, I was looking forward to grabbing a giant soft pretzel.

Well, it's now 3:35 in the afternoon and we're back home from a long day's walk in the park - but with no pretzel. There were so many people out and about enjoying the weather that either the stands were out of pretzels or the lines were wrapped around the building once or twice. So instead, Chris, Daniel (Chris' personal trainer who've we've become friends with over the past few months), Maddie and I sat down and had a light lunch of roasted chicken and potato salad while soaking in the sun and beautiful lake surroundings.

I suppose I didn't really need a pretzel. We're going to Puerto Vallarta next week so the extra carbs would be my enemy. Then again, it's Fat Sally Sunday so I'm allowed to eat what I want. But with fried chicken, mashed potatoes, corn, biscuits and brownies on the menu for tonight, I guess I need to leave as much room as possible in my stomach. Otherwise, I'll be nauseous later (which is bound to happen anyway).
