alee_grrlSo I have figured out that one way to motivate myself to get up and moving, and actually go get doctor ordered blood work done on a Saturday, is to promise myself breakfast out. I had to get blood work done about a month ago (and again today to see if the adjustments made to my thyroid meds are working) and this motivation proved fairly effective. :D
Last time I had breakfast/brunch at a place in downtown Burlington called the Skinny Pancake. It was tasty, but crowded and being downtown meant I had to pay for parking. So I asked a few friends about their favorite breakfast/brunch spots in the area, with a focus on places that were not downtown (this weekend is a local jazz festival and it was be even busier downtown than usual). Ended up at a little pub called the Spanked Puppy. Down-to-earth, blue collar style bar with absolutely amazing food and super affordable. I had biscuits and gravy and it came with way more food than I anticipated (one biscuit served open faced with sausage gravy, two eggs, two pieces of bacon, home fries, a slice of toast, and a slice of watermelon). I don't think I'll need lunch. :D Even more amazing was the total for the meal and coffee was just over $12. I'll definitely be going back there the next time I actually get out for brunch. :D
Now I'm just doing laundry and chilling, enjoying the warmer temps that we finally got, and catching up on fanfic. :D
Hope everyone else is having a lovely weekend. <3
