everybody's working for the weekend

I know it's only Wednesday night... but I'm just so excited! Excited for tonight, excited for tomorrow night, excited for this weekend. Just plain EXCITED.

So what makes a typical Wednesday night so exciting? Can you guess what's for dinner?

I know, I know, that's a vague clue. So here's another...

Since we've got a working and non-lethal oven back in the kitchen, this recipe is possible again. (*hint hint*) And since installation of said oven, it's been on the top of our list of meals to make... personally, I've been dreaming about it! (recipe coming at you tomorrow, so keep an eye out!)

And why is tomorrow night exciting? I can't believe I'm actually saying this... watching the Boston Red Sox with the Fenway Faithful. The Sox gave me little to cheer about last season, but they seem to have found their mojo again. This clubhouse seems to have found character, desire, and motivation to win games. Who would have thunk it?!

Then Marathon Weekend is here! I'm such a sucker for the atmosphere, the camaraderie, the general feeling of friendliness and joy you see all throughout the city all weekend. It's like the entire city of Boston got a memo that spring is finally here, the sun is shining, and everything's good in life. 

Even though I feel wicked under-prepared for Monday, I can't wait to run from Hopkinton to Boston... taking in the crowds, soaking up the cheers, laughing at the signs, everything. There is something so special about this one day in Boston. 

On Marathon Monday, I am so proud that Boston is my home.
