Weekend Recap: Columbus Weekend Edition

Four day weekends are just the best. THE BEST. There isn't as much pressure on you like a typical work week, and you can plan activities without any pressure. This weekend was filled with so many fun Fall activities that I wouldn't mind reliving again.

Friday, I laid low and prepared for the nice long weekend ahead. I ran to Costco to grab some groceries with my parents and climbed into bed early that night.

Saturday was such a busy day. In the morning, my mom and I met my aunt at a local Fall Festival. It was the most perfect Fall day. There was such a great crowd, and both my mom, aunt, and I all got some Christmas shopping done early. Later that afternoon, my parent's and I headed to Youngstown State University to catch a game and a tailgate! Listen, tailgate food is just so darn delicious. I consumed way too many calories, but for a once a year type thing I can swing it. Again, it was the perfect weather for some food and football!

Sunday, I went to church. Afterwards, I came home and just relaxed. I watched some Hallmark channel, chatted with my best friend, and headed to bed. Simplicity at its finest! Quite the exciting life I lead, huh?!

Monday I had off of school. Can I get an amen!? I did some final prep for the week ahead. My mom and I weren't feeling 100% because we have been fighting off a cold. (I've been fighting it, she has a cold.) Since it was the most beautiful day outside, I got in a short treadmill workout, and sat outside with a book and iced coffee and enjoyed the sunshine.

All in all, my Columbus weekend was relaxing and exciting all at the same time. It was a much needed break!

How did you spend your Columbus weekend? Did you get extra time off, or was it just a regular weekend for you? I can't wait to hear about it! Leave me a comment and let me know!

Cooking for a Crowd: Spaghetti Sauce

My family likes to save money when we have parties. One way to do so is to cook everything ourselves, instead of hiring a caterer. Today, I wanted to give you a recipe for spaghetti sauce that will feed a crowd. This recipe is best made in an 18 quart roast pan. We bought most of our sauces and tomato paste at Costco. Ingredients: 2 onions 3 cans diced tomatoes 2 #10 cans of tomato sauce 1 #10 can on spaghetti sauce 1 heaping tsp of garlic minced 2 (28 oz) cans of crushed tomatoes 4 (6 oz) cans of tomato paste 1 tsp sugar Onion and garlic salt, italian seasoning, parsley, oregano to taste 1 pound of each: ground meat, hot and sweet sausage Look at the deliciousness!  In a skillet brown your meat and sausage in a little oil. Once browned place off to the side. Combine your onions, garlic, diced tomatoes, and crushed tomatoes. *Sweat your onions down first, then add the garlic. Then your tomatoes.* Open your tomato sauces and spaghetti sauces (w...

High Five for Friday

I've done it again. #badblogger I can't wait until school is out and I have free time to write, photograph, and post my blogs! As usual, I am linking up with Lauren ! Here are my thoughts about the week! 1. It's Friday, and for that I am very grateful! 2. I am getting my hair cut tomorrow! I'm keeping my length, but I might add a few extra layers to give me more volume! I can't wait! My hair has been especially knotty when I get out of the shower. 3. I ordered new contacts and glasses from Wal-Mart Vision Center. I've had really good luck with them! 4. Did any of you catch the premier of The Night Shift on Tuesday? I think this will be a good replacement for me until Chicago Fire comes back on! 5. I am very much looking forward to sleeping in! What did you love about the week?
