Weekly Wrap-Up: Crazy coincidences & Funny Links!

This is a pretty short Weekly Wrap-Up on the restaurant and adventure fronts, as compared to previous weeks!  However, I have a few coincidences and exciting things to show you all that happened this week.  Plus, I'll include a few links to things that have made me chuckle lately.  :)


Weekly Wrap-Up

Basically, the only place we went out to eat was Spin! Neapolitan Pizza on Saturday night.  Can you believe it?  For the full recap, head to The Episodic Eater and here is a preview of the pizza we ordered.  :)

Afterwards, we had Yogurtland.  It is so hard to turn down!

P.S. - Since then, I made an effort to get my eating habits and everything in check and posted about it on this post!  Part of me considered sharing a picture food journal with y'all here, but that would probably be a bit boring for you.  :)


On Sunday, I made a huge pot of chili for the football crowd.  Yum!  I also made some for myself, which was a lightened up turkey chili.  I will make sure to share soon!

Now for the some exciting stuff that happened this week!

• I just won a $25 gift card to Starbucks for being the top vote-getter on this post.  Yay!
• I was mentioned as the inspiration for this post talking about the usage of the words "factoid" and "factlet."  That was fun surprise in my inbox!
• While catching up with Kristine from The Foley Fam - Unedited, I found out that I actually know one of her cousins.  Small world!
• Susan Feniger liked my photo of Spinach & Roasted Pepper Lasagna.  WHAT?!?!?!?  I love Border Grill and STREET (R.I.P.) was one of my favorites.  Mud Hen Tavern has been on my list to try.  Maybe for my birthday?

A couple things that made me laugh:

• This compilation of The Top 10 Worst Infomercials
• I can't get enough of Gabriel Valenciano's selfie videos.  Here's the first one that hooked me.  My guy doesn't understand them, but I will watch them three times in a row to get me hysterically laughing, under a minute.  :)
• I have been a fan of PHD Comics since my grad school days, but some days the comics are spot on for life after school.  Check out the Work vs. Cleaning comic below, that the math nerd in me loves.  So true!

That was a fun little weekly wrap-up, right?  Maybe I will share more funny links in the future if I have a slow week.  The good news is that I have LOTS to show you all next week.  :)

What made you smile this week?  I want to see!
