Kevin and I had a great time celebrating Saint Patrick’s Day.
We went out with friends to Wall Street in downtown Orlando, drank American beer and ate Mexican food. It was a really fun evening.
I was moving a little slowly on Sunday, but we made it out to Waterford Lakes in East Orlando to meet my parents and sister for lunch at Keke’s—the perfect recovery food. I ordered a grilled buffalo chicken wrap with blue cheese dressing in a whole wheat tortilla with sweet potato fries.
I love Keke’s because its food is a lot lighter than most other places. The sweet potato fries really hit the spot.
Also ordered at the table were two egg white omelets, a cheeseburger and French toast. We had quite the assortment of foods.
After lunch, Kevin and I stopped by Publix and came home with a ton of groceries, including two boxes of Peeps. Peeps kind of gross me out, but these Peeps weren’t for eating…they were purchased solely for dueling.
That’s right…PEEP WARS (apparently, that’s a thing?).
Basically, you take two Peeps, put a toothpick in the side of each and microwave them (causing them to grow) until one toothpick deflates the other Peep. It was a battle royale, and since I’m the most competitive person on the planet, I wasn’t about to let my Peep lose without a fight.
VICTORY! My purple Peep won, and now we have two boxes of Peeps that no one is going to eat.
Do you like Peeps?
LOL. How could you do that to the poor Peeps? That’s Peep abuse. I love Peeps more than I should. Hubs bought me some to cheer me up the other day. (Yes, I am easily cheered up by one dollar gifts)
Looks like you and I were about 2 blocks away from each other on St. Pattys! Still going to the meet up next week?
Cute couple picture!! And man, do I love buffalo chicken. And fries! The peep wars are hilarious!!
You guys look cute!
The food looks great! I love Peeps! Have you ever tried the chocolate covered Peeps? They are amazing 
Peep wars? I guess that’s appropriate?! Peeps should gross you out. I won’t even begin to tell you what they are made of.
haha that’s awesome! I may have to get some Peeps now! Also, now I’m craving sweet potato fries
I’ll maybe eat a few Peeps, but that’s it. I get sick of them after 2-3 and I’m ready to wait until next year!
Your meal sound incredible!
I hate peeps but my boyfriend loves them! Your peeps war sounds like fun. Haha.
Mmm sweet potato fries – love!!!
Hahahah I used to microwave Peeps and marshmallows with my sisters all the time when we were little. I loved watching them grow!!
Peeps are pretty yummy! But I’ve never heard of Peep Wars before
Your alarm clock looks strangely familiar! I feel ya on the early morning workout sessions…every single day of my life!
Last year, my mom decided we were going to launch “Peep-a-nauts” at the family Easter celebration. (don’t ask.) We attached those little guys to bottle rockets and sent them off into space. Odd, yet super fun!
