Saturday I met Denise from Do You Have That in My Size? for coffee right after my Weight Watchers meeting. We met via Fitbloggin’ and found out we have a lot in common plus live pretty darn close to each other!
She suggested coffee and we had a wonderful chat; time ran out before the words did. Put yourself out there and you might find the perfect coffee date.

Here are some of my favorite posts from around the web this week.
