I love having Fridays off. I spent the day getting a waxing, having lunch with a friend who I haven't seen in forever, went to eye appointment and got them dilated to hell and back. After that, I headed on over to Bed Bath & Beyond to get a baking pan and a scale because I'm beginning to refocus on losing weight. The last year has been really hard in personal matters and I've totally let myself go. My main goal is to lose 8 lbs. this month. The scale will help me track progress or possibly even lack of progress.
So, after my grand day out I headed back on home to make a steak dinner for my boy along with roasted root veggies. Acorn squash, carrots, sweet potato, onions, garlic, olive oil, rosemary, sea salt, and peppercorns roasted in the oven for about 40 min at 400˚. So very tasty with the steak.

Tomorrow, the boy and I are tackling Ikea for a ton o' household items, namely food storage containers, spice jars and curtains. It will be our first trip to the Brooklyn Ikea and hopefully we can get out of there in about 2.5 hours top and without shanking anyone. Oh, and with some meatballs in our bellies. We can only hope.
