Food Truck Invasion

Hello there and happy Thursday!

This week has been a great one thus far and I'm even more excited for the weekend as it includes time with friends!

On Monday, I was asked to help out in another area of oncology that I'm not as familiar with as the one I work in now. It was a great learning experience and I enjoyed seeing another side of what we all do to help our patients!

This week, the cafeteria at work has been out of service, so they lined up a bunch of local food trucks to serve us each day! Before you roll your eyes at me, please know that I live in a small town in Louisiana and the food truck phenomenon didn't hit us until literally within the past two years. Since that time, it seems as if EVERYONE has jumped on board the food truck bandwagon, and we had a variety of foods to choose from this week (from BBQ to Thai and everything in between)!


My week started off with Garden Path Groceries. They are known for having healthier food options and they were only going to be around on Monday, so I went with them.


This chicken salad sandwich was amazing, but I honestly should have ordered a salad bowl instead. Oh well....just means I'll need to go back!


On Tuesday, the food from the Rib Shack BBQ truck smelled SO good, we were willing to stand out in the rain to order it!


This truck had a really cool setup - their smoker is on the back of their truck inside of a cage so they can travel with it! I do believe this was one of the best pulled pork sandwiches I've ever had!


So far though, my favorite has been The Sloppy Taco. They were one of the first food trucks to make their way into my town and somehow, I'd never tried their food!


These tacos look sloppy because they are! I ordered the Al Pastor with pork and pineapples as well as the original Sloppy Taco with beef and shrimp. I also bought a few home for Jason to try and he is hooked, too!



Another favorite find this week was the Peppermint Mocha creamer! I was so excited to see it and snagged one of the last bottles! Now if fall would only hurry up and get here...


You know I can't write a post without mentioning my silly kid! Well, he decided he wanted to start playing peek-a-boo on his own this week....and this was the result. What, you don't smash your face in to hide your eyes when you play peek-a-boo?

 

This week, we've also been attempting to catch up on season 6 of Once Upon A Time. We somehow got incredibly behind and only watched the first episode. As a fun build up to our cruise, we are trying to finish the entire season before we leave. We shall see if that happens or not!


Stay tuned for a look at all of the fun items inside the August PopSugar Must Have Box! It's their birthday month (and mine too), so I'm looking forward to celebrating with them!! :)

Have a great day!

Rambling Thoughts For Thursday

Today, I had some rambling thoughts going through my head, so I'm sharing them with you here.


I can hardly believe it, but it's finally Princess Half Marathon month! Eeek! You guys know I had to defer Princess last year due to being on restriction due to pregnancy, so I am even more excited about this year! You know what's crazy? 2015's Princess Half was my last runDisney experience! I'm having withdrawals, y'all! Over the past week, I've been working on shirt ideas for us to wear while we're at the parks and also my running costume which I'm seriously stumped on over here. Ah well, it will all come together in the end! (Side note: runDisney no longer allows race deferrals which I think is a bit mad but whatever...)

-------------------------------------


Speaking of our upcoming WDW trip, thanks for the tips - I cancelled the stroller rental and decided to just bring my own. I was worried about the ease of getting it on and off the plane but you guys made it sound super easy so I'm crossing my fingers!

-------------------------------------

Rock N Roll New Orleans is also this weekend and I'm super pumped! My running buddy Heather and I will be there to run the half and we are really looking forward to another girl's weekend! If you are there and see me around, please say hi! :) I would love to meet you!


-------------------------------------
 
Speaking of upcoming races and trips, I went through and saved photos from my iphone to my computer last night and also deleted about 7,000 photos. I hadn't done that since the fall and my phone messages warned that my storage was almost full. It was CRAZY to see pictures of Brayden just 3 months ago and how much he's changed. It makes me happy that he's growing like he should but also makes me sad at the same time. SLOW DOWN time. Please.

-------------------------------------

Last but not least, speaking of growing up to fast.....guess what's just around the corner in a few months? Brayden's first birthday party! Lately, I've been rolling around ideas, saving ideas to pinterest, and getting the crafty part of my brain ready to plan party stuff! We are going with a Mickey theme (of course) and I can't wait! It's going to be so much fun!!

Well, that's it for now! I hope you have a great Thursday! It's almost the weekend, y'all! :)
