Weekend Recap: Hello, Fall!

Cincinnati was seriously blessed with beautiful weather this weekend, minus the crazy storms on Friday night. I completely took advantage of the perfectly crisp fall weather! 


Oktoberfest Zinzinnati was this weekend. It's the largest Oktoberfest celebration in the USA! The event also features the World's Largest Chicken Dance...yeah, my city is a little strange sometimes. I also went to the City Flea in Washington Park. It's always nice to support local artists and small businesses.

On Sunday, I went to a yoga class sponsored by lululemon, followed by lunch with a new friend. Fresh green juice from Whole Foods after yoga is probably my new favorite thing.

In order to cancel out that healthy morning, I had to bake and lounge around watching football. I improvised a little and came up with a great healthy (well, healthier) recipe for vegan chocolate chip cookies! The picture quality is terrible, but the cookies themselves are so, so good. 




I can't even have the Monday blues after that super relaxing weekend. Cheers to a new week!

Rachel
