I love long weekends. Who doesn't, right? I super, duper love them though because all of my out of town friends come back home for the weekend and I get to spend some quality BFF time with them.

I've mentioned before that I've been aiming to treat my body a little better lately by eating lots of nutritious snacks. I won't lie, it's been difficult.
