Today Mark turns 28. The handsome devil.

Mark is my best friend and my favorite person in the world. Just by being himself, he makes my heart happy.  Be sure to wish him a Happy Birthday on twitter.

Some of my favorite things about Mark:

• He is patient, sincere and smart.
• He can be silly like in his Hangry Pants videos (Thoughts on a Beer Ice Cream Float, ProBar Contest Video, Mark and Heather’s Exercise Video, I Need Help Cooking).
• He is clean.
• He eats everything I cook. 
• He likes little kids and they like him.
• He is a good person.
• He makes good eggs.
• He encourages me.

The list of dislikes will be posted tomorrow.

This morning I woke Mark up by putting his current favorite breakfast on his pillow.  I made us some Banana French Toast by combining two eggs with two mashed bananas. The bananas get encrusted on the bread in a sweet mush. This makes four pieces of French Toast. You must try it ASAP.

It really is a delicious treat, especially when covered with a bit of peanut butter.

I think it deserves another photo.

A lot of people commented on my “Personal Watermelon” last night. I assure you that I did not make up that name. They are just Baby Watermelons. I scored a pretty big one for $2.50 yesterday. See, I can hold it in my palm.

Summit News

Didn’t get a Healthy Living Summit ticket? Tomorrow Caitlin will auction off one ticket with the proceeds benefits her Team in Training efforts, so be sure to check out the ticket sale.

Happy Monday Night! First, I just want to say how proud I am of Caitlin. Did you see her T.V. interview about Operation Beautiful? I think it’s just fabulous.   I would say I can’t believe how the project has taken off, but I’m not surprised one bit. I’ve worked with Caitlin planning the Summit for several months now and know how hard working and dedicated she is to things she is passionate about! Anyway, the message is good, the person is good, it’s all so good!

I had the best sandwich for lunch today! It was Dave’s Killer Bread with roasted eggplant, spinach and hummus. Oh it was just fabulous! I hope to replicate it soon. Next time I would peel the eggplant though because it was a little tough to get through.

After lunch I headed to the gym, but it closed early because they are still celebrating the 4th of July. Yipee America. I went to the grocery store instead and stocked up on such things as a personal watermelon, yogurt and corn on the cob. When I got home it was cool enough outside for a nice run.

I did about 5 miles and then demolished enjoyed my personal watermelon.

Query: If a watermelon is defines as “personal,” does that make eating the whole thing appropriate?

That is a completely hypothetical question. Promise. Tomorrow is a big day everyone:

1. Mark turns 28!!!!

2. I go to the doctor for a check up! 
3. We make composts out of soda bottles at school!
4. I eat more watermelon.
5. The Cleaner Life Month ends.
6. I start Kath and Caitlin’s 10 Minute C + K Challenge.
7. Mark hosts his first blog contest!

Good Night Bloggies!
