Biking is my Happy Place

Good morning!

Did anyone else find it really hard to get up this morning?! I couldn’t fall asleep very easily last night, either. I loved that it was light out so long last night… but I can’t decide if it’s worth having dark mornings again! Oh, daylight savings.

Matt and I spent most of yesterday being productive. I was on a spring cleaning kick and organized four huge bags of stuff to give away to Goodwill, while he attended to some work. We broke for lunch around 12:30. :)

Massive spinach, tomato, green pepper, and smoked salmon salad for me!

Plus some orange slices and a large piece of Irish soda bread (love this stuff – our co-op grocery store makes the best!) that I shared with Matt. He had leftover pho from Saturday night. :)

After running a bunch of errands in the afternoon, Matt and I decided to take advantage of the beautiful day and evening sunlight by going on a bike ride. It had been too long since we took our bikes out to play!

Biking on a beautiful day with Matt is my happy place. :) It’s so calming.

We did a hybrid of our normal favorite loops in the country roads near Chapel Hill. I love that empty roads like this are such a short bike ride away! We’ll have to find some good spots to bike when we’re back in DC in a couple months, too.

We ended up covering 18 (VERY hilly) miles in about 2 hours. Such a nice way to spend a Sunday early evening.

For dinner post-bike ride, it was taco night!

Matt was in charge and he cooked up some ground beef and organized all sorts of fun toppings for us – guacamole, salsa, cheddar cheese, chopped spinach, cilantro, sautéed peppers and onions, tomatoes, and hot sauce, of course!

We used small corn tortillas – two for me, three for him! :)

Yum, yum.

Time to get back into the swing of things – I have a ton of assignments and school work due this week and now I’m off to class. Happy Monday!

How did you enjoy the great outdoors this weekend?
