Weekend excitement!

After the stress of this morning (see my last post), I can't wait for this weekend! There are so many exciting things happening that I can't help but be excited.

The fun plans started last night, even if they were a bit low-key. The pizza Joe and I had last night turned out fabulously! As I mentioned I might suggest, we ended up watching The Departed in the spirit of Whitey Bulger's arrest. Granted, it's not based strictly on him and his activities, but it was fun nonetheless. As a recap, I used whole wheat pizza dough and tomato basil sauce from Trader Joe's, with yellow and red bell peppers, broccoli, and Daiya mozzarella-flavored vegan cheese.

The missing piece is where I tried the dough to test if it was done.
Of course that's why I ate it!
I just love it when I can find a way to make a healthy version of something generally reserved as an indulgence. Following that theme, Joe and I are going to b.good for dinner tonight and I'm very excited! I loved b.good in college, but haven't really been since because of the proximity (or lack thereof). Tonight I'm staying late at work to make up for the time I missed this morning with my doctor's appointment (did the stairs twice at work today to make up partially for missing the gym), going to Ace Tickets to pick up our tickets for tomorrow (more on that in a second) and then meeting Joe at b.good for dinner before we go shopping! I'm so excited that I've already refreshed my memory on the menu and know exactly what I'll be ordering. After b.good we're taking the T to Sullivan and then walking to KMart at the Assembly Square Mall. I need new sports bras and Joe needs new underwear and socks. I may look at dresses while I'm there to see if there is anything appropriate for the weddings Joe and I will be attending this summer. After that we're going home to catch the end of WWE Smackdown! I can't believe I'm back into wrestling.

Tomorrow we're going to the Phantom Gourmet BBQ Beach Party at City Hall Plaza. I bought us two tickets, but then Joe revealed that he got a voucher for two free tickets while he was at the bachelor party. Oops. Janice is going to buy my tickets though, so that helps. I've never been to this event before, but it looks like it will be a blast (provided the weather holds). There's a Ferris wheel, BBQ restaurant owners from all over the world, two beer gardens, and live music. I can't wait! 

Sunday Joe is spending the day with Sean and I'm going to the airport to pick up/accompany two girls I used to babysit in college. They're going to summer camp around Boston and their parents are out of the country, so they're flying as unaccompanied minors and need someone to meet them at the gate and then get them to the pickup location. I can't wait for this either! These girls are a lot of fun to be around and always a hoot. It should be a really fun time. After that I'll either go shopping with Janice (she also needs dresses for summer weddings) or lay low at home. 

Whew! Looking like a good weekend!
