This afternoon, our area had a storm come through and I jokingly thought to myself, “I hope we don’t lose power.” We have lived in this house for almost two years and have never lost power despite all the storms.

About twenty seconds later after I thought this, we lost power. I relied on my cell phone for the next 40 minutes even though it was almost dead.  You don’t realize how great something is until you lose it. So to pass the time, I read some more of my book.

I practically rejoiced when the lights came back on because I would be able to fix myself some lunch. I had a black bean veggie burger with ketchup on bread and some popcorn.

Later, I snacked on the other half of the mini watermelon. I’ll have to get to the store tomorrow to get one or two more while they’re still on sale.

I also had a very ripe banana.

This reminds me that I need to make another batch of raw banana ice cream again. I tried it a few weeks ago and loved it. I’m a big ice cream fan but not too big on all the ingredients, so it’s definitely a healthy alternative.

After work I read a bit more until the hubby got home and we went out for dinner at a small place we haven’t been to in over a year. I got a veggie wrap with broccoli. The wrap had lettuce, onions, cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms, peppers, and rice.

Considering it was a bar and grill type place, it was pretty good. I actually made a note to myself to bring my camera, but forgot it in the end. So, this is phone camera quality and the lighting wasn’t too great either.

It started raining again when we got back. I have a feeling I’ll be running on the treadmill tomorrow morning.

Todd and I may also be taking a short trip tomorrow to see something. Nothing is final yet and although we have talked about it for awhile, we just decided to do this today. As a hint, we might be getting an addition to the family.

I hope you had a fun and rain-free Friday!
