Fighting Irish update: Now that I have fully recovered from the 3-day trip to Indy (it’s crazy what just an hour time change will do to your body), I am ready to get back into the swing of things. I’m feelin’ pretty good about the fact that I’ve managed to do some sort of cardio for three days in a row (WILD, I know!) and was pleasantly surprised when I received an email from one of my besties last night titled “Winner winner chicken dinner”. The subject, of course, referred to having a DSM ladies night out for dinner – and the chosen restaurant was Americana. I have only been there for lunch, so I was really looking forward to trying out their dinner menu, and better yet, their long list of cocktails.

I ended up ordering the Mac & Cheese with chicken and while waiting for my piping hot cheesy noodles I sipped on a cool concoction called a Strawberry Bitch. I highly recommend both!

Cool cocktails and hot noodles - great combo!

Tomorrow I am going again to a dealership to check out a Volvo S60 that just came available on their lot. Really hoping that this is the ONE. Fingers crossed. This time I will remember that 4 inch wedges are not the best shoes to be wearing when test driving a car that isn’t yours!

But really, I LOVE my summer wedges and can’t get enough of them! I had these bad boys on today.
