'cause down the shore, everything is alright

I am kind of afraid to say it for fear of jinxing it but the weather in WA has been gorgeous! We spent the entire day outdoors and I loved it. Between running, playtime with the pugs on the grass, a bit of grocery shopping and sitting out in the sun watching Tour Of Walla Walla and taking pics. Once again, Troy took pics of the race and I took random pics. Like this one.

See that tattoo there? It is the first tattoo I ever got and I am not too fond of it. I had it done in some little tattoo shop, it took about 20 minutes and it cost $50.00. I wanted an American flag and the guy was like "oh, let's put it on there like it is waving!"! He was cute and I said sure! Bad idea. I guess at some point I will get it redone or covered up. Who knows. I may just leave it alone to remind me of that time in my life.

Troy set up chairs for us to watch the race and as cyclists were flying by, sweating profusely and working their butts off,  the husband was snapping pics like crazy and I was eating salt water taffy while teasing Troy about everything under the sun.
                                                             Mmmm, so good.


Salt water taffy totally reminds me of my childhood growing up in Jersey.With the exception that these are vegan and I doubt the ones from the Jersey Shore were/are. Even though I spent over 20 years living in So CA , I was born and lived in NJ until I was 10 years old and went back twice in my adult years for a short while. I have no idea if I consider myself a Jersey girl or not. I guess it depends on the day and my mood. Today I am feeling Jersey.

I have always been a sugar-a-holic but lately each time I eat anything with refined sugar, I end up with a major headache and a horrific stomach ache. I tell Troy I am allergic to sugar and he tells me that the issue is that I eat so many fruits and veggies every single day that my body is no longer breaking down sugar correctly. Something like that. All I heard was - sugar equals pain.

Stay tuned for a 3am blog because I can't sleep due to my body screaming at me for the taffy. :/

love,
Romy
