 On another note, have you tried these?  

Found these Pretzel Shells at Graul's Market.  It's just what it says…the shell of the pretzel.  Perfect for dipping with hummus…been my snack all week!  

 Last Thursday I went to the Ravens game.  Even though it started to rain, we were able to go to the club level seats under cover with our friends and got to stay for the whole game….and got home at 1am.

 We had a great time!

 ….but this is what I felt like the next day at work….

Hope you are having a wonderful day!
