Hey guys!
Mike wanted me to tell all of you Thank You for the wonderful birthday wishes, and he wanted to say that he has the best wife ever! Actually I added that in there , hehe
I had a lunch date with him at noon, so I wanted to squeeze in a quick 20 minute cardio workout before then
Elliptical 20 minute HIIT
* warm up of 5 minutes
I did a switch off between reverse and forward
1-2 minutes reverse , Incline 16 regular pace
3-4 minutes forward, incline 10 ( go as fast I can last minute )
5-6 reverse , Incline 16 regular pace
and continue until 20 minutes, resistance was set at 6 as well for whole time!
* 5 minute cool down on stationary bike
Let me know if you try this, its a good one!
My Playlist adds today were good today too, but random, like my life, haha!
- Godsmack , Whatever
- Queen, Bohemian Rhapsody
- Madonna , Heartbeat
- Lady Gaga , Americano
Random but good! My whole music style is all mixed up!
I then showered up and got ready for lunch !
We went to Flat Top Grill, a favorite of ours!
You go to a buffet and fill your bowl up with veggies, a type of protein, sauce, and then they cook it all up for you!
* tried to take a pic of where they cook up all the meals, but bad lighting 
Mike got a shrimp, chicken , and veggie bowl with different sauces, a spicy chili pepper sauce was his main choice, you can choose from a lot of different sauces!
I have no head! haha!
I got a chicken and veggie filled bowl!
Was great to do lunch with the birthday boy 
I made a quick stop after saying goodbye to Mike, had to pick up the BEST part about a birthday
Birthday cake! Not just any, Coldstone Ice Cream Cake, the BEST!
Mike and Anthony always request a coldstone cake for their birthday’s!
What is your favorite Birthday Dessert, is it cake? If cake, what kind?
See you later on, Mike and I have plans to maybe see a movie when he gets done *hopefully early* from work!

Happy birthday Mike! I like cupcakes or my mom’s yellow cake. It’s from a box but the way she makes it is amazing! My birthday is right after thanksgiving so I never want to eat. I was thinking of getting my whole family to do something active this year. I can picture my 80yr old grandfather ice skating or rock climbing..ya right! Hope you get to see an early movie
Hey, from a box is just as good! Thanks for the birthday wishes to Mike!
That would be cool to do something like that for your birthday! Yeah pap might not be able to, lol! He can watch you guys!
My favorite is an almond torte from Pittsburgh’s Prantl’s bakery – to die for! Ice cream cake is a close second though!
Wow that sounds yummy! I never heard of that bakery, Im surprised! xo
Wedding Countdown for you girl!! So exciting!
happy birthday, Mike!! (he looks great in glasses, by the way).
Thanks! and I will have to tell him you said that! He will be so happy! He has a love/hate relationship with his glasses!
I love ice cream cake! Usually on my birthday Jason will take me out to dinner and we’ll get a dessert there. This past year it was a banana cashew egg roll — it was so good!
That sounds amazing!!! Where do you get a dessert like that?! : )
Yum! My fave birthday dessert is chocolate cheesecake- but ice cream cake is definitely a close second
That sounds good : )
Happy Birthday, Mike! MMMMM coldstone cake!
Thanks Jessica! I can save you a piece ; )
Happy Birthday to Mike! What a delicious meal– i always love places like that where you know EXACTLY what is going into your food. mmm.
Thank you Molly!! Thanks for stopping by too! Im not sure if you ever have : ) Yes, its fun to know what is going in your food, I love that about this place too, no hidden ingredients ; )
Aw, happy birthday, Mike! His birthday is a day before mine and it’s a great month to have a birthday in.
I guess my favorite dessert would be Jennifer Cornbleet’s raw chocolate cake – solid walnuts, dates, and cacao – yum!
Thank you and Happy Birthday to you today!!!
Hey, you should get that raw chocolate cake for your birthday today : )
Whatever by Godsmack is one of my favorite songs
Gets my blood going for sure. I’m glad that you and Mike had an awesome lunch, but I’m willing to bet that dessert is going to be even better 
I’ve never had an ice cream cake from Cold Stone, but I always loved the ice cream cakes from DQ. But really, any cake is good cake as long as frosting is involved, right? 
Godsmack is awesome, I have loved them for a long time : )
and frosting is key ; )
I love birthday cake and ice cream. My fave part of the cake is the frosting so if I can get an ice cream cake that actually has frosting, I’m in heaven
Glad you had a wonderful lunch date
Frosting is the BEST part, bad frosting, no good to me!
happy birthday to the hubby
you are treating him ultra well! a lunch date coldstone AND waffles i love <3 AND i love that lippy workout of yours!
Yes! He deserves it! love ya girl!
My favorite birthday cakes is chocolate with vanilla frosting. I know, so plain but I love it! Although ice cream cake is pretty delicious too! Hope Mike and you have fun celebrating!!
Any cake is good to me! Frosting best part, has to be a yummy frosting!
Ice cream cake is my favorite! But we usually get it from baskin robins. I saw a while back that cold stone has ice cream cupcakes but every time i would go get them they were out.
The cupcakes do sell out fast, I pre-ordered them for Anthony’s birthday , they are yummy!
I love your blog! Love your outfit too – you’re simply adorable
And the chicken bowl looks delishhhh!
Thank you Elizabeth! So glad you came by!!! : )
You really are THE BEST wife ever! Lunch looks super yummy…I love places that let you pick your ingredients! In high school I’d eat at a place called Mongolian Barbecue at least once a week. They called me Veggie Girl because I’d always load my bowl with tooons of veggies.
I’m not really a cake person…with a huge exception for ice cream cake! Love it! I used to request Baskin Robbins cakes when I was little (before Coldstone existed), and still love ‘em. But I could almost do without the cake part…Just give me ice cream pie!
I hope you had a fab night with the hubby!! xoxoxo
Wow! Best wife ever?! Ha! Love it! Thanks love! I bet you and your mom are having a blast! Your froyo looked so good, I seriously went every day! Mine though, I filled up over the top, I go big!
Coldstone cake rocks, I do love Baskin Robbins and DQ Ice cream cakes too, I love them all!
We had a fab night! love you!!!!! Enjoy that Maui sun for us!!!
Hahaha you make me laugh Katie. Best wife ever… LOVE IT!
