5 things I did:
1. We went on a mini road trip to the Upper Peninsula. Once we
started on our way there, we realized Marquette had a blizzard warning. We continued anyway and we did make it safely after some white out road conditions on the way.
2. Saturday night we took in a Northern Michigan University hockey game.
3. After a day of adventuring around the midst of a blizzard, we drank some $3 margaritas and played Cards Against Humanity. It was great fun.
4. We went to two local breweries while up there. I love going to the local places and seeing what they are all about. I will be writing up the experiences in a few weeks and posting them. Stay tuned!
5. We got back Sunday evening and it was just real life activities after that; grocery shopping, laundry, work, etc.

5 things I ate:
1. I drank this delicious hot chocolate from Babycakes. It was decadent and amazing.
3. A sub from Togo's. Mine had pretty much only meat and a little bit of cheese.
Kind of unnecessary, really.
4. Bavarian Cream filled Paczki on Fat Tuesday. So heavenly.
5. Green smoothies happened all week to make up for the lack of vegetables all weekend long.
5 things I read:
Given the conditions on our trip, this was the topic of conversation for a lot of the weekend.
This was a really cool read, I am bummed to say I haven't been to a single one of these restaurants. I feel the need to remedy that ASAP.
Full review coming on Monday! So I will leave you in suspense until then!
4. Pedatrician refuses lesbian mothers
Just one of those articles and situations that makes you go hmm.

Visiting from the link up! That hot chocolate looks incredibly delicious! I just read the synopsis for Prayers for the Stolen and it sounds really good! I recently watched a documentary on Netflix about being a girl in China and India and it was really interesting, I'd love to read about another perspective. Thanks for sharing!
