My Kind of Treat

Happy Halloween! I’m sure most everyone celebrated over the weekend, but why not stretch the fun into the week, right? We have a big afternoon/evening planned with attending our first neighborhood family Halloween party.

It’s official. I’m old.

But I can’t wait to show off my little candy corn!

I must give Hailey’s Mema a lot of credit because she MADE this adorable costume after I showed her the one I saw on Pinterest.  I absolutely love it and don’t think I’ve ever seen a cuter candy corn- thanks Mema!

Now let’s talk treats.  My favorite treat I enjoyed over the weekend?

Why, that’s easy.

A GEORGIA VICTORY!!

Treats are even sweeter when you rarely get them

GO DAWGS!

Now, as far as edible treats, I enjoy a Reese’s every now and then, but my favorite treat comes much more in the form of a delicious meal, which is exactly what we had at Toast in Davidson.

I know I talk about it all the time, but I love Davidson, and though I’ve enjoyed many breakfasts and lunches at Toast, we had never tried it for dinner.

I started off with my favorite- Blue Moon!

We perused the menu while snacking on the complimentary warm, fresh bread, served with a delicious soft butter that tasted like it had honey and rosemary in it.  Remind me to try and recreate this. YUM.

Toast is a place where ever. single. thing. on the menu sounds delicious, but we finally narrowed it down.  We split a bowl of French Onion soup.

I savored the warm, flavor-packed broth and Hubbs devoured the melty gruyere and mozzarella cheese.

For my main, I ordered an appetizer – Butternut Squash Ravioli.

Another YUM! It was packed with flavor thanks to the goat cheese and cranberries.  I also noticed how pretty it was- what a great fall dish!

Hubbs ordered the bistro burger, and I was clearly too enthralled with my ravioli to focus on taking a decent picture.

This burger was quite decadent and topped with bacon and brie.  A burger like this makes for a happy Hubbs

As always, Toast never disappoints.

Now, one last thought to stay with the TREAT theme?

Lululemon.

I loved reading every comment on Friday’s Fitness Fashion post- so thank you all for your thoughts! After reading through it all I gathered that Lululemon isn’t necessary, but that it may be a fun treat.

So, that’s what I’m saving it for. Once I get back into working out the way I want to be, I’ll reward myself with a Lululemon piece to see for myself what I think.  I’m leaning towards yoga pants.

What was the best Halloween costume you saw this weekend?

I’m not sure what my favorite costume was, but I can show you the best carved pumpkin I saw…
