Three of us are here!!!! Three more to arrive š
My flight was on time (early!!) and Jenna and I arrived within 4 minutes of one another. I ate breakfast right after we took off at 8AM
Hazelnut Butter + Ginger Raspberry Rhubarb on Dakota
And cherries! With my book Housekeeping that I canāt fully appreciate because my mind is so busy these days.
Jenna and I navigated the Boston subway with my 45-pound suitcase and made it to the Radisson in good time. We were both famished and after checking out our rooms, which are so nice (!!), we met Tina and walked to lunch at Piattini.
There are so many beautiful 26ās in this city!
Larbs and Matt were waiting when we arrived! (They are both out of town this weekend so they couldnāt come to the summit š )
We were greeted with a huge basket of divinely chewy bread
I had half a slice –
Matt and I shared a salad and sandwich (love sharing ā thanks Matt!)
The almond salad before I gave Matt his share
After
And my half of a Prosciutto, Mozzarella + Pesto Sandwich, which was TO DIE FOR!!
We had an army of the cutest little birds hoping to snag some of our bread š
Lunch was so fresh and delicious. Iām glad to I got to see L+M and will be dining with them on Sunday night as well.
After lunch Tina, Jenna and I walked back to the Radisson, but we couldnāt help stopping into a HUGE Banana Republic looking for sales, which were on the very top floor
No luck!
Weāve got an hour to chill and then weāre headed back out for some JP Licks ice cream!! Getting lots of walking in today ā I already have a blister!
H arrives this afternoon and C+M are coming at 7, and then weāre all going to dinner!!! SO EXCITED!!
Anyone in the Boston area: Check the Summit website for festivities that you can join us for. And we will be LIVE STREAMING the whole summit on Saturday at www.HealthyLivingSummit.com. Check in Saturday AM!

Please show a pic of the room as you said how nice it is….
Does the number 26 have some special significance?
Melissa says
I had commented earlier about being excited to meet everyone at JP Licks but I ended up having to work late. I’m definitely going to keep up with the Summit site for other opportunities for those w/out tickets.
My boyfriend and I are training for a 1/2 marathon so we’re looking forward to running with a group on Sunday morning.
Enjoy Boston!
~Melissa~
