Karen and I had a nice morning out – she is now feeling extra smart with her brand new Galaxy S III! I am DYING for this phone since my Samsung Infuse is not eligible for the Android ice cream sandwich update. I have to wait until March to get it discounted on my AT&T plan – counting the days! [This phone should not be affected by Apple news..]
I had lots of fun setting her phone up for her. She’s having a bit of a learning curve with the keyboard, but she’s getting better by the minute. We had a hilarious laugh about how she was going to tell the bakery employees that she got a phone that “comes with an ice cream sandwich.” : )
As a thank you for my help and a celebration of my last days before becoming a mom, Karen treated me to a pedicure!
We had fun video chatting with Matt from the bakery! Technology is so cool!
I got home at 1 and put together lunch
Our only leftover slice of pizza
Plum + carrot
And some yogurt with cereal on top
I have a meeting, a delivery to make and an evening event scheduled tonight. See you at sun down!
Annette @FitnessPerks says
Awww what a fun date away from the house! Pedicure…mmm that sounds nice!
Laurie says
A delivery???? Is it a baby boy? LOL
KathEats says
Hahahaha. Hopefully!! A sandwich delivery to another new mom!
Alyse says
That’s what my mind said as well! haha.
Kelly says
My mind went there too! We are all ready for ya, Kath!
Linda says
I thought the exact same thing and loved how non-chalant it was. I’ll make a delivery this afternoon, and off to the next task on the list. 🙂
Monica says
Is the “delivery” Baby KERF? Hehehe. 😉
KathEats says
Hah – that’s two of you to guess that. I’m hoping this was a subconscious slip and the answer is YES!
Perfectly says
Karen looks great. What a blessing for in-laws to get along 🙂
Lauren @ Oatmeal after Spinning says
My MIL is pretty tech-saavy and has had a smartphone for a while now. My mom still has a flip-phone that is about 6 years old and has no idea how to text! She also still has a landline at her house, and uses that more than anything.
Hooray for pedicures! Did that one spa ever contact you (the one that I gave your info to)?
KathEats says
They didn’t 🙁 I emailed her the next day, but I guess she wasn’t really that interested.
Johanna B says
I would be ok with you making a 2nd “delivery” today.
Kelly says
What a fun day and a GREAT idea to get a peidcure! How fun!!
I know Karen reads the comments but if not, tell her she will totally get used to the keyboard and will LOVE, Love, love her smartphone! If you didn’t tell her already, the auto rotate feature of the phone to the bigger keyboard really helped me to adapt to a smartphone keyboard. Also swiping, especially when I use the smaller keyboard.
Jennifer says
What is an ice cream update??
KathEats says
To the Android operating system
Jennifer says
I guess since I don’t have an Android I have no idea what that means though 🙂 No bigge was just curious.
KathEats says
🙂 all of the operating systems are named after frozen treats… its quite cute! I’m stuck in froyo!
Kinley @ Better Off Barefoot says
Wouldn’t it be nice to just “make a delivery” of a baby that you could schedule in your afternoon ?! 🙂 I know that’s not what you meant but you are seemingly doing quite well being patient! Such an exciting time for you guys, best wishes!
Andrea says
Every part of the last sentence sounds like it’s a hint! Lol, I know it’s not, but too funny 🙂 Have a great rest of your day!
Angela @ Eat Spin Run Repeat says
Ooh phone shopping is fun, but pedicures are even better! Hope that delivery is a baby!
Rachel says
aww that’s so nice of her to treat you to a pedi!
j3nn says
A pedis sounds sooo good right about now! I want to get one so badly. Must make time for this. I also have to get one of the new Samsung phones; been looking at them for a long time now. They’re so awesome with their huge screens!
Stacy @ Say it with Sprinkles says
Yum, that pizza looks amazing!

OliePants says
I got a pedicure a couple of weeks before I gave birth and let me tell you – great idea!! Great way to get pampered and when the rest of you isn’t feeling the best, it’s nice to know that your toes look great. It was the small things for me! 🙂
Ashleigh says
A pedicure? There will be a baby soon. I know 3 girls that went into labour within 24 hours of a pedi. Fingers crossed!
greenbean says
Karen’s looking so put together as usual!
Katie @ Peace Love & Oats says
I love siggi’s! I wish I could find it anywhere other than Whole Foods!
Kylie @ immaeatthat says
I hope your planned delivery doesn’t turn into THE delivery:)
Kylie @ immaeatthat says
Oh haha everyone else already commented saying that:)
Cara says
I tweeted you this then realized that my twitter is protected and you probably didn’t see it!…I was reading your blog during my lunch break today and my boss’s 6 year old son came up to my computer and pointed to your picture (the upper-left hand profile picture you have on every page) and said “I like her, she’s pretty”
Just thought that might brighten your afternoon a bit 🙂
KathEats says
Awww cuteness! Thanks!
Molly says
But it’s not yogurt, it’s skyr! And oh-so-delicious, healthy, and all-around fantastic. Whenever I go to Iceland, I consume a disproportionally high amount. I do like the Siggis brand, but wish that skyr in general was easier to find in the US. New business venture?… =)
Ashley @ Coffee Cake and Cardio says
Hopefully 2 delivers! Have a wonderful evening!
Laura (Blogging Over Thyme) says
I have to say, I was a totally Android person, and then I kept having issues with freezing, etc, etc. and then got an Apple and won’t be going back. I find it incredibly user-friendly and really reliable. Plus, the camera is great quality.
Fun day, I love pedicures!
Millie Snyder says
I have never seen pizza look so different and so good! Wow!
Angel7 says
I did not know that Matt wore glasses.

KathEats says
Only sometimes 🙂
Rachel S. Gerber says
I got a pedicure (at week 40) painted with bright orange nails! It was the talk of the town during the delivery room–everyone commented on them in-between pushes! 🙂 I only wished that the pressure points during the foot massage would have done something to bring my sweet one out sooner–born at 41 weeks (induced), but it was a super labor/delivery (just under 3 hours, and 4 pushes). Much love to you in this home stretch of waiting and anticipating!
Tessa (@ Attempting Normal) says
What a perfect thing to do… a pretty pedi before the big day. Thinking of you & best of luck!
Julie says
You can’t beat a pedicure! Enjoy the relaxing while you can!
[email protected] for the Soul says
I’m glad you’re getting so many sweet special treatments! I think every mom and mom to be needs that. 😀 And I bet getting that pedi was like, THE milestone of “Oh, I’m gonna give birth soon!” 😛
Simply Life says
karen is way ahead of me – still no smartphone! love that you went for a pedicure after -how fun!
Cait's Plate says
The delivery wouldn’t happen to be the baby would it?? 😉
Karen says
Now, I want that phone!! If nothing else, it surely is pretty 🙂
I am so glad you are out of your slump and back to your chipper self, Kath. Your friendship with Karen is just beautiful to observe…she seems so sweet and cool! You are one lucky girl 🙂
Kristen @ The Balanced Bowl says
Your relationship with Karen is so great! I really enjoy reading your posts about the two of you.
As for phones….I still have a “dumb phone.” The only “touch screen” feature is when it touches my cheek while I’m on the phone. 😉
Jennifer says
Yay for Karen! I bet she will just LOVE that phone. I want that. 🙂
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
Looks like a fun morning!! 🙂
Christina @ The Beautiful Balance says
What type of tea is in the background?
I love my iPhone, can not get enough. FaceTime is the greatest thing ever.
