Another weekend come and gone!
standard weekend uniform
I checked out a bit (from the blog world, at least) this weekend, but here’s some highlights:
I got around to frosting my cupcakes on Friday and they turned out PERFECT. I was damn proud of myself.
SUCCESS! And I went with candy corn for topping, and my bunco friends loved them (well, all two who tried them anyway.) In hindsight, I should have used little candy corn pumpkins. Actually, I did go out and grab a bag and topped the rest, that I gave to my mom yesterday. They looked SOFREAKINGCUTE…until I turned the box over, toppling all the cupcakes and ruining their cuteness. I had a moment right then… WHY did I do that?!
Moving on…
On Saturday Shane and I visited my parents, who both had surgery/procedures last week. We thought they could use some company. Plus we like drinking their beer 
haha
We all played some euchre and then ate some Mexican food. Good times!
Shane also headed to uptown Normal for some lunch – al fresco and ice cream.
And lots of filler happened in between – spin workouts, running, weights, coffee, friends, cleaning, training, errand running…including this awesome deal I scored on Justin’s Almond Butter:
Say whaaa? Actually, I scored a lot of deals shopping this weekend. It was supposed to be my weekend to save some cash, but I just can’t say no to a sale. *sigh*
All right. Enough about the weekend, let’s get to today’s Move it Monday workout!

You cupcakes look so professional! I made amazing pumpkin cupcakes this weekend but my frosting was an epic fail. Also grabbed candy corn to top them but regretted not getting the little pumpkins

I’ll buy some things just because they are on sale
The lowest I’ve ever seen Justin’s is around $8, so you got an awesome deal. I hope you stocked up!

Think I have intervals on the treadmill scheduled for tomorrow… weeeee!
Glad it was a good weekend!

do you parents have beer on tap!??!? that is awesome.
UGHHH i am always the idiot who pulls some kind of “why did i do that move” which makes the cupcakes end up tipping over or something – but i’m totally loving your frosting job and i would have snatched the cupcake with TWO candy corns on top!
They do! They also have “bloody mary time” at 4:30 every single day lol
Incredibly adorable final product! The best part of my weekend was not setting my alarm on Saturday morning – it was the first time in months that I just woke up naturally!
Your cupcakes turned out adorable! How did you make the frosting all fancy schmancy? That’s the part that always intimidates me… And where did you find that sale for Justin’s?! Whole Foods? That is one heck of a deal!

I went out and bought a couple tips and frosting bags! All professional like (ha!) Found the JNB at Kroger’s – they have the best sales sometimes.
awww your poor cute cupcakes!!! They look drool worthy tho so even if a little crushed from the tumble, I’m sure they tasted fab
