Although we had maybe two hours of sleep, we got up early to explore Charleston.
I tried to make myself as presentable as possible.
Our first mission was to find a breakfast cafe.
We walked towards the market and found Sweetwater cafe!
First things first, coffee.
We requested the window seat so we could people watch! 🙂
Everything on the Menu looked fantastic!
I ordered the garden omelet with fresh fruit and wheat toast. I tried to keep it healthy since I knew we were going out tonight for dinner and drinks. You can still maintain a healthy weight and drink. You just have to dodge the obstacles like syrups, the drunk greasy drive thru and eat healthier through out the day.
Samantha ordered a salad that looked delicious. It had salsa, shrimp, cheese, romaine and tomatoes!
Sealy ordered a scrumptious stack of banana pancakes and cheesy grits. It was my first time trying cheesy grits and it tasted just like cheesy potatoes. I loved them! We kind of flopped our plates around trying each others meals.
I loved seeing all the horses on the street!
We shopped down King Street after breakfast.
We ran into Obey Giant doing work! (read more about the artist here)
So I’ve decided this is my favorite of all the places I’ve been.
We walked and shopped and shopped!
I added a new addition to the bracelet fam:)
After King Street, we headed over to the farmers market and did more exploring! I’ll work on posting the rest later on!

You look so gorgeous ! I mean, I am not jealous : I look up to you. Is it really possible for me to lose the weight as you did ? I know what I need to do, and what I need to eat, but with my 4 kids, I feel like I really have no time for me. Sometimes I feel sorry for me…if I were someone else looking at me, I would think : poor her, she really has nothing to do, she will stay fat for ever…
I know that it’s not true, but I am not able to eat healthy more than a week. I would love to, but I feel like I will never be abble to do what I dream of : having a healthy life style, being fit and having so much energy.

What kind of lipgloss/lipstick are you wearing?
Katie says
I think it’s so awesome how you make friends to hang out with wherever you move to.. I’m such a homebody I feel like I would be screwed if I moved around so much! I’ve been following your blog for a couple years now and I love your posts so much 🙂
