Hello! How has your weekend been? Mine has been busy, but mostly good! Josh’s Parents and Brother have been in town and we’ve been spending a lot of time with them. They took Josh back to the doctors on Saturday and he has some more issues going on with his ankle, so we’ve been laying a bit low to give him time to rest.
Saturday morning, I taught Body Step and Pump and both Lindsay and Shannon came to class. So fun to have them both there! A little while ago I won a Jay Robb giveaway on Lindsay’s blog and should brought me the goods. Look at all that protein (wahoo!). The prize pack also came with bars, a shaker and mixer ball and a hot Jay Robb tank. Lindsay and I have plans to rock our tanks together sometime soon. Thank you Lindsay and Jay Robb!!
Saturday also involved a trip to Charleston’s Cafe and Home Team BBQ on Sullivan’s Island. Since Josh’s Brother and Dad had to hit the road pretty early (Josh’s Mom is hanging around for a bit to help take care of Josh), the two meals took place a little close together for me…so I ended up mostly just being a spectator.
The gang at the restaurant:
The inside of the restaurant has very cool decor. It looks like a great combination of an Island-y Grill and an old school BBQ joint. Josh ordered the pulled pork platter with macaroni and cheese, cucumber and tomato salad (for me) and a corn muffin:
The restaurant also provides multiple sauces to choose from:
Everyone really enjoyed their meals.
This morning, I met the other Charleston Bloggers for a meet up at Fat Hen on Johns Island.
I was excited for another great Sunday morning brunch out.
The restaurant serves water in jars, which I absolutely love:
And they have great old school diner coffee mugs:
Amelia’s husband was nice enough to serve as our professional photographer outside the restaurant. The ladies: Blair, Lindsay, Amelia, Christina & Myself:
Love these ladies! I think this picture captures a little more of our true personalities haha
What was the highlight of your weekend?

A restaurant with multiple sauces to choose from gets two thumbs up from me, being the queen of condiments. :)

LOVE the name Fat Hen :-) that is so perfect for a breakfast spot.
Yay for eggs! one of the yummiest proteins, I think.
i had a wonderful blogger meetup, plus an amazing facial this morning and a terrific peruvian dinner. too many wonderful things! i'm glad you had a great time this weekend too - i love a restaurant with bottles of sauces, and glasses of water in jars too!!!
girl loving the pics of all the ladies!!! you all look awesome...next time i need to be there too!!
great score on the jay robb. I have never actually even seen a give away for that..unlike CSN stores or tofuxpress which are everywhere..but that's a good thing :) except for you who didnt like her tofuxpress/home tofu action. i wish i could come over and help you!
have a great week sweetie!
ok that JAY ROBB sparkly tank is perhaps the best thing ever.
classic.
oh looks like such a fun time!
Oh yeah! Twin day is coming my friend. We need to do out Jay Robb shirts up big. The second picture looks like you're saying " Don't you know I'm awesome!" Funny stuff.
I can't wait to see you two rock those shirts! Awesome. :)
The highlight of my weekend was the blogger meetup we had and spending time with my BFF yesterday. It was so nice!
what a fun meetup! glad you had a nice weekend girl :) highlight of mine was def our beach day yesterday and that fab lunch!
Looks like a great time! The highlight of my weekend was spending time with the hubby :)
Home Team BBQ is one of our favorite BBQ places in Charleston.
I really like the last picture. It's really cool that he was able to snag that picture AND it came out clear!
Looks like you guys had a great time! My highlight was being able to finally spend time around the house instead of having a million plans!
Looks like you guys had a lot of fun! Sorry to hear Josh needs more low time :( hopefully he'll be on the mend soon!
I tried to stay cool all weekend! Did manage to spend some time at the beach though and some time out with friends.
I am jealous of all the yummy food you had this weekend. Looking forward to the next meet up!
WOW! You won a great giveaway! You will have to let us all know how you like them.
this must be a sign. I keep thinking, "pulled pork", and now you blog about it. I better just go ahead and eat some. (but notice I didn't say, MAKE some)
i love us!! i always have so much fun with you ladies. the highlight of my weekend was definitely trying a new restaurant and lots of friend time :)
One thing I never did in Charleston was try some BBQ! Looks pretty delish and now I'm seriously regretting it!
you are the queen of meet ups!! i want you to come back to boston! haha!! awesome Jay Robb package! you know I am a HUGE fan!! have youever tried his egg whites protein?? I haven't ever but interested in trying it!!
I wish we had more diners here. Everything is Mexican food or burgers.
you all look so cute! i love blogger meet ups!
i wish i lived in charleston! i would have joined in on the fat hen action.
i'd also take your body step class. and probably look like a fool. but i'd do it! :o)
I love that last picture - candid pictures are always so much more fun!
I love that you guys do brunch once a week. That's just so awesome!
Fave thing this weekend? Def the BBQ we hosted to "officially open" the new deck!
Hope you've had a great Monday!!!
I have never met a blogger in real life, I really want to know how it feels like to meet a blogger :)
I agree with one of the comments, love your dress.
The Fat Hen sounds awesome! I love reading about you lovely Charleston ladies and your blogger meetups :)
What a fun get together with some blogger ladies. You ladies look so cute.
YUM! I looooove bbq and haven't had it in so long it feels! Good to spend time with fam, hope Josh is feeling better!
What a kick ass giveaway to win!!
You've had a lot of fun blogger meet ups lately! Cute pics!
The highlight of my weekend was seeing Rent at the Hollywood Bowl last night (I'm so tired though). Glad you had a great time!
Mmm, sounds like a great restaurant - glad you had a good weekend!
I love all of your blogger meet ups! Looks like you ladies a had a great time, heart that they use mason jars - CUTE!!
Oh I forgot - the highlight of my weekend was productivity! i know that seems high level but I REALLY enjoyed being in town and getting stuff done at the house with my husband!
Last weekend we went kayaking! So fun. I gotta wonder why there aren't more Boston blogger meetups? Less friendly up here I suppose :-(
Weekend Highlight: Meeting the new baby of my bff from high school!
Sorry Josh is having so much ankle trouble... but so nice his family was in town to take his mind off it.
Looks like a fun meetup! I love that lime green dress.
Highlight of the weekend was taking a mini-vay with Ari!
