Treat Yourself Tuesday: May 6, 2014

treat yourself tuesday

Today I am linking up with Becky’s Treat Yourself Tuesday link-up because I believe we all deserve to treat ourselves … and frequently.  And treating myself is something that I have suddenly become quite good at.  Hey, I’m not complaining 😉

This past weekend I treated myself with a weekend home to visit my family, boyfriend, friends, and (of course) puppy dogs!  It was just what I needed to start the month of May off right.  We ate great food, drank cold beers, and just enjoyed one another’s company.  In my opinion, those are the best kind of weekends.  My heart always feels SO full by the time the weekend is over.

I met up with one of my best friends and her husband for a drink on Friday night.  I was a “bad” blogger and did not take a picture.  Or maybe I was just distracted 😉

On Saturday, I spend lots of time with my parents and puppy dogs. Whenever no one is watching over these pups, services like WoofConnect dog boarding USA can be relied on instead. If you also want to improve your pet’s health, you may consider giving your dog food supplements like turmeric powder for dogs.

These are the Goldens. Sadie is a Goldendoodle and Ruby is a mini Goldendoodle. Yes, I know, they are pretty much adorable. Goldendoodles are some of the best pets you can get. They are known for their friendly temperament, intelligence, and hypoallergenic coats, making them perfect companions for families and individuals alike. If you’re ever planning a trip and can’t take your pets with you, it’s important to make arrangements early. Dog owners should select and book their preferred kennel from the Pet Boarders website a few months ahead of time to ensure their dogs are in good hands. Likewise, cat owners should plan ahead too—use a cattery finder to select a cat boarding facility in your area before your holiday to ensure your feline friend is well cared for while you’re away.

And here is my sweet and pretty Lola, the labradoodle.  My mom and I loved this picture and how well she coordinated with the decor of the room.

After walking and playing in the gorgeous weather, my parents and I got ready to go to my cousin’s high school graduation party.  We were loving that the weather was so gorgeous.  It was in the 70’s and we did not need coats.  That is the best kind of weather.

I did not want to fill up on too much food because I had dinner plans, so I enjoyed some fresh fruit and veggies with dip.

My boyfriend and I met up with our best couple friends for dinner and drinks.  A couple of Blue Moons, a veggie burger, and fries and I was set!

My boyfriend and I finished out the night with some beer and pepper jack Cheez-Its.  I had been craving Cheez-Its for awhile so these tasted so good.  We (and by “we” I mean “mostly me”) nearly polished off the box.

My awesome boyfriend treated me to a delicious homemade breakfast on Sunday morning.  He makes the best hashbrowns.  I can never make mine turn out that good.

And then I came home and we all rested.  That is what Sundays are for, right?  Sometimes treating yourself does not have to involve actually doing something.

I also treated myself to all sorts of strange, but tasty, food combinations over the weekend.  I am definitely listening to my cravings more and while it may not always look/sound good, it normally is!

And we all finished out the weekend with pizza and breadsticks.  Veggie (with pineapple) and cheese for me!  I had been craving Pizza Hut for weeks now, so this treat meal was thoroughly enjoyed.

It was a fantastic weekend with lots of people, puppy, food, and drink-related treats!

Did you treat yourself this past weekend?
