FRIDAY

We met our friends Brian & Jessica for sushi dinner at Sonobana - so good!

SATURDAY

There's a new yoga studio in Brentwood that three of my good friends have joined & are obsessed with, Epic Yoga.  It's in the Target shopping center on Old Hickory Blvd, so not terribly far.  I met my friend Heidi there Saturday morning for a 90 minute power vinyasa class.  I've never done hot yoga, but I loved it.  Well, once I got used to it, I loved it.  I had a hard time adjusting to the heat at first & figuring out my breathing, but I adjusted quickly.  This class had three instructors, so while one taught, the other two walked around & made adjustments to your poses.  I loved this!  I'm always surprised at how flexible I am when an instructor pushes me to reach further & then I can usually do it on my own in the next class.  Anyway, I'm rambling.  If you're interested, I highly recommend trying Epic Yoga.  I loved it & will probably join.

Our friends Keith & Nicole (not Urban) had us over on Saturday night to celebrate Nicole's birthday.  We ate hot chicken, made caramel apples & sat outside around their fire pit.  It was awesome!  The hot chicken was from some place in East Nashville called Pepperfire.  Meh.  It wasn't bad, but I don't need to eat it again.  Prince's, it wasn't.  But the caramel apples were AMAZING, especially because we ate them sitting around a fire.  Perfect fall evening.

SUNDAY

Yesterday I ran the Richland Creek Greenway with Jaime.  I don't know how far we ran.  Three-ish miles?  It was a good run.  Man, I love running in cold weather!  Post-run, I delivered some food to my friend Katie who had a baby last week & then I met my mom in Green Hills so we could scope out the new Nordstrom.  It's so nice!  They have so many counter brands that I haven't been able to get in Nashville.  Hooray!  Also, ladies, take note, they have the Butter nail polish line.  You're welcome.
