Hey everyone! Well, I have been gone for a while, sorry. I have been sooooo busy I have literally not had the time to blog. So let me back all the way up to the last time I blogged, which was Wednesday afternoon!! WOW!!!
After blogging, Adam, May and I headed to Paolo’s to grab some dinner. I started off with a Stella
and a small piece of bread.
For an appetizer, we split the Caprese salad and some eggplant rollettini!
The salad was stacked tomato and mozzarella with an olive oil and pesto dressing and fresh basil. It was so yummy and fresh tasting. May and I ended up splitting it in half.
The eggplant was pan fried and stuffed with ricotta cheese and topped with marinara sauce. SO GOOD! Adam, May and I each had a small piece. OH MY GOSH, I love Italian food, it is my absolute favorite!!!!!
For our meal we got a pizza that was half grilled chicken (for Adam) and half Melanzana (for May and I).
Our side had eggplant, ricotta, mozzarella, basil and oil. I loved it for two reasons: the eggplant was grilled and not fried, and the crust was thin and light. YUMMMMMM!
After dinner we headed out to the Tavern to meet up with some friends. There were a few of these consumed by this girl!!!
That was a Blue Moon!!! I had so much fun with all my friends!!! I really love the night before Thanksgiving!!!!! Here are a few pictures from the night.

As you can tell there was a good amount of drinking going on. When we got home, I was a little hungry. I think it was the combo of running almost 10 miles and a few beers. So, I made an envelope of Annie’s instant mac and cheese.
On Thursday morning, Adam and I got up to make breakfast before he headed to work for the day. I had an egg white omelet with cheddar cheese, salsa, a Morningstar veggie sausage and a mini whole wheat bagel with blueberry jam.
We enjoyed breakfast while watching the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, which I thought was really good this year! Did you watch it? If so, what did you think?
Since this post was planned to take place on Thanksgiving, I had to post my final Things I am Thankful for post (to read the other things I posted being thankful for you can click here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here ). Of course I planned to end it with Adam. So, even though this post isn’t actually going up on Thanksgiving,I would like to do my last Thanksgiving post.
I am Thankful for ADAM!!!!
A Little History:
Adam and I met through mutual friends when we were 15 years old. For about a few months we hung out a lot and became really close friends. After a while I started to get a little crush on him. I decided that I needed to tell him. I remember being so nervous! When I told him, he told me he liked me back and I the rest is history.
Adam and I have been together for almost 11 years and I am still head over heels in love with him! He is the most loving, support and caring person I know. He is also really hilarious, a great listener, so easy to talk to, and really easy on the eyes too!!!!!
I am so grateful for his love and support every single day. I would not have the courage to do half of things I have taken chances on without knowing he is behind me 100%. When I think about how happy I am to have Ad in my life, I feel like the luckiest girl in the world!!!! I cannot wait to call him my husband (which will happen 7/10/10)!
Some random facts about Adam:
- He is the youngest of 6 kids
- He is an uncle to 11 nieces and nephews
- He is a Boston Police Officer
- He played 3 different sports in High School (swimming, football, lacrosse)
- I was his first (any only) kiss
- He and my dad are obsessed with BC Football and have season tickets
- He is a fantastic running partner
- He donates money to numerous cancer research charities and is on the board of the Anthony’s Dream Foundation (read my post about Anthony’s Dream here).
- He couches an basketball team of 8-9 year olds in the neighborhood of Boston where he works.
