Etna does not disappoint.
Renee's husband, Pat, says that everytime I come to visit, he leaves to go to work and comes back home and all we have been doing all day is baking and cooking. And yesterday was no exception. Except that along with preparing a DELICIOUS dinner of Indian cuisine, we also drank Bloody Mary's allllllll day long. So, he walked in the door and we were laying on the floor in the kitchen, taking pictures, with all the windows open in the house because we started a kitchen fire. Awesome. This leads me to my shoe choice for today...
I HAVE To wear my Nikes today, because I woke up this morning with a purple and blue toe. And i'm not quite sure how it happened. Why is it that I always get injured???? I'm a disaster people. And there is just no way that I am going to wear any shoes other than my Nikes. They are so comfortable and fit my feet like a glove. These are my "default shoes", which means that I get to wear them every day of this 51 day challenge....and I figure I should blog about them at some point along the way. Today is that day.
I love these shoes because they are so cute---who doesn't love pink AND gray together?? And you know how some exercise shoes are just not cute? Well, these ones are totally fabulous in the sense that they are cute AND are great running shoes. I no longer get shin splints when I am running long distances and they are also great for the gym as well...you know, for when I am pumping some serious iron :) In all seriousness, these shoes are totally worth the $80 that it cost me to get them. I recommend them to anyone who runs, walks, lives an even mildly aerobic lifestyle. They are THAT awesome. You will not regret them.
Today, these shoes helped me plant Renee's garden, go feed the cows (see photos for proof), catch the horses that escaped the corral (I'm telling you, the weirdest coutry things happen to me here) and just be generally active. And also they did not irritate my randomly sort of broken toe. OUCH! What a fun day! I LOVE ETNA!
And, also just because Pat makes fun of our cooking hobby, we are also having a "Southern cooking" themed dinner. So who knows, maybe he'll come home tonight with us laying on the kitchen floor, surrounded by fried chicken, mashed potatoes, and Margaritas....as long as I don't break another toe, anything goes in Etna! :)
