Hi guys! No Friday Brew today š¦ , instead I wanted to share a few pics of my recent concert visit at the Ritz Raleigh. My friend Hannah and I saw Kehlani and a few other opening acts this past Saturday. So much new talent on theĀ scene these days. I’m officially in fullĀ concert mode now, LOL. Hope you guys enjoy your weekend! See you back here on Monday, same place, same time I hope šĀ
Happy Friday!Ā

We just couldn’t help ourselves. One of the many stops we made on our visit to Virginia was Krispy Kreme. It’s literally impossible to just drive by this place when the hot light is on. We didn’t fight the urge, saw the large sign getting off the freeway and floored it to the shop. Not exactly on our diet plan but hey, you only live once, right? It was the perfect way to start our morning and last day in VA. I got 6 glazed and a vanilla iced coffee and Charlie got a ice cold milk and the chocolate covered ones. Need I remind you, we are currently training for a 5K in September. Yeah, a 5K, we ran a few miles when we got back in town to burn off at least one of these darn donuts so we didn’t feel to bad. For some reason, these donuts are just so much better when they are hot, the glaze justĀ kind of melts in your mouth. That being said, I suggest following these 5 rules for your next Krispy Kreme visit:
My 5 rules forĀ visiting Krispy Kreme:
Rule #1
Never go there if the hot light is not on!
Rule #2
To avoid dry mouth, order an iced coffee or cold milk, it’s not complete without one of these beverages
Rule #3
You can’t just eat 1, so don’t fight it. Do you boo!
Rule #4
Glazed are the best but be adventurous every now and then and get you a donut with sprinkles!
Rule #5
Prepare for guilty for eating a dozen by yourself and makeĀ plans to visit the gym later on that day. š
Like rule #5, vacay is over and it’s back to salads and water š¦ Now you know why we road trip so much, it’s an excuse to eat bad. There is no way anyone is eating kale on a road trip, that’s just ludicrous. Hump day here we go!
Just so you know, the title of this post is a complete lie so don’t go to Krispy Kreme racking up on this their fluffy, glazed goodness. š I will admit, it is hard to only have just one.
Sincerely,
Deidra Marie
Another weekend gone in a matter of seconds. Again, Smonday should be a new day of the week. Spent a large chunk of the weekend chillaxin with one of my fav babes, Hannah. We are on this healthy-living kick right now so what better spot to grub out than at Living Kitchen. Living Kitchen is housed in the heart of Downtown Raleigh and serves some serious fresh eats that are organic, colorful and just good for the body in general. Who says organic can’t be yummy? I must say I was pleasantly surprised at how satisfying the veggie burger was. I ordered a salad with some random stuff on it too. It was crunchy and colorful, Ā my two favorite things. Kinda makes you think that this eating healthy business isn’t that bad after all if you choose the right meals.
On another note, in less than 4 days Charlie and I are making our way to the west coast. Were going going back back to Cali Cali. Well, we’ve never been but you get my drift, LOL, Los Angeles to be exact. Stay tuned for my packing shenanigans and my quest to meet some celebrity crushes.
Have a awesome, fantastic week!
Sincerely,
Deidra Marie
