Ending the week on the end of the month makes the perfectionist part of me very happy. And it’s been a pretty decent week, so that makes me even happier. I have my first Economics of Sports class this morning, and I’m not totally sure what’s on my agenda for the weekend besides a massage and some reading, but I’ll figure it out as I go. Before we get there, let’s talk about our favorites from the past week. Sound good? Sweet.
Bodega
It already feels like ages ago, but last Friday night, my mom and I went to Bodega for dinner. We shared/demolished an order of truffle fries and got drinks and tacos. The carnitas one was my favorite, but that’s not to say anything was not good about the carne asada. It was delicious and we will totally be back. If you’re in Columbus, go!
Getting the class I wanted
So. It’s not official, but it’s kind of official and I’m so happy about it. The teacher and TAs can’t get the online adding system to work and have submitted requests for tech help, but the TAs have told me I’m in. Halle-freaking-lujah. Not only do I find the economics of health and healthcare more interesting than finance (though I’m sure finance is very valuable), but the workload is much lighter and the teacher seems… more promising. He knows what he’s doing, while my finance teacher is like, “This is really difficult material and it’s my first time teaching. Let’s see how this goes.” Anyway, I’m getting the health textbook this weekend, so… it better be official soon?
Arm balances
Last night, I went to an hour and a half arm balance and inversion workshop at CorePower and it was awesome. It wasn’t a traditional flow, but there were flowy elements to help loosen us up. Practicing arm balances on my own used to freak me out, but I’m going to try more now that I’ve had a thorough introduction. Anyway, I managed Headstand with a spot, and started working into Eight-Angle Pose, Hurdler’s Pose, and Firefly Pose
JicaChips
I am not a huge chip person, but sometimes I have a craving. And sometimes I just want to check out the new products I see. And these are incredible. I love fresh jicama for it’s sweet, crunchy self, and these live up to that (duh, they’re pretty much just jicama), but instead of being juicy, they are super crisp. There’s also a chili lime flavor I’m dying to try!
Nikki’s Coconut Butter
It’s like… not-too-sweet fudge in a jar. I got the Dark Chocolate Fudge, because chocolate. It’s equally good on sweet potatoes and toast and bananas and spoons.
Between @ColumbusBodega, @JicaChips, and coconut butter, it's been a pretty delicious week. Click To TweetYour turn:
Chips or fries?
What’s your plan for the weekend?
What are you loving this week?
Jicachips are pretty good, but I will take fresh jicama over them every day. I love fries, as you know, but truffle fries are a very fine line with me. YAY for getting into the class that you wanted! i know that the system there is less than desirable. And luckily, with teacher training, you already know a bit about leading a class!
Still really wanting to try Nikki’s coconut butter; I’ve heard nothing but good things about it! I’m so excited that you got the class you wanted; that’s a huge blessing.
Bodega looks really good.
Jicachips also sound interesting; I would love to try that!
