Friday evening, I arrived home to discover a lil' package waiting for me from Jewel of the Lion. Mind you, this was not just a surprise, but also a bit of a mystery because I didn't know who actually sent me a gift. I cannot begin to explain how my excitement level skyrocketed as I opened the box to discover layers of glittery tissue paper, then... chocolate covered bacon. D's amazing sister, Amanda, was thoughtful enough to order this treat for me!

I'm actually ashamed to say that I haven't yet had any yet. I was busy sitting in my pool all weekend and making friends with my neighbors and completely forgot the contents of my fridge.

In other news, I started training for a half marathon Monday. I haven't been running as consistently as I had been, so why not pick a race and follow a training schedule? The only problem is that I haven't settled on a race. And, I've been running in my Merrill's and my calves are killing me! http://www.etsy.com/shop/jewelofthelion
