Thursday Three

This was a particularly exciting week, but I was able to hang out with a bunch of friends, work a lot and bake. All of which I enjoy doing during the summer. I have also officially started to train for a marathon in the fall. I am so excited and it seems like I have spent so much of my time reading about running nutrition and tips for the long distance. Wish me luck!

 Food trucks are nothing new, but where I live, there are more and more all the time. I was finally able to get to a gelato food truck that I had been wanting to find since last summer. There was no disappointment. I had a raspberry pistachio gelato, and it was amazing. Pistachios are something that I only recently started to like, so I find myself always picking the pistachio flavor these days.

What's also not new to anyone... avocado toast. But what did I try out this week? Avocado toast with corn. It was never something I thought to put together until I read this blogpost by How Sweet Eats. Originally I was going to make it just like recipe, but the garden finally had ripe tomatoes so I knew I had to take advantage of that. I took fresh grilled corn from the farmers market, added paprika, then put the corn on top of the avocado. I also added tomato, sea salt, pepper and cilantro.

I have been making a point of going on mini adventures this summer around where I live seeing as I have no idea about how long I am going to stay here (as opposed to living in Madison during the summer). This week I went to De Pere for a little trip to check out a grocery store (Fresh Thyme Market), try a cool looking coffee shop and walking around looking at pretty houses. It's days like these where sometimes I wonder if I secretly of 50 year old, not 19. 

How was your week?
xoxo,
Maddie
