A Rushed Post

Good Morning! Sorry I didn’t post last night I had a terrible sinus head ache and went right to sleep as soon as I got home from work! I have to run out so this post is going to be a quick one.

For breakfast yesterday I had another Peach Chobani but remembered some Kashi Island Vanilla cereal to mix in.

I love the vanilla cereal in the peach yogurt, so good!

Between breakfast and lunch I snacked on some Cherry Semolina Dr. Krackers. 10 of them to be exact.

Lunch was Harborside leftovers.

And I even snuck a roll out from the restaurant in my to go bag.

So like I said I came home yesterday with a horrible sinus headache, it’s been so long since I’ve had one it hit me out of nowhere! I came home got right into bed, and slept until 8, when I woke up my headache was still there so I jumped in a hot shower hoping the steam would help. No such luck. Finally I took some nighttime cold and cough medicine and that knocked the headache out and I was finally feeling well enough to eat at around 10. I just had a sandwich thin with pb.

Well I have to run now, I’ll be back tonight!

An Al Fresco Dinner

What a day! I woke up thinking it was Thursday and thought that until I was on my way to work. Since we don’t work Fridays anymore Thursday is our dress down day so I went to work wearing jeans and everything. It was obvious to everyone at work I had mixed up what day I thought it was. Ugh. But oh well I was comfortable all day at least.

I started out the day with something I haven’t had in so long, unfortunately in my hurry this morning I forgot my camera but I do have some pretty bad blackberry photos to share.

Peach Chobani! In addition to forgetting my camera I also forgot some cereal for mixing into the yogurt. But it was still amazingly delicious, it’s been to long Peach Chobani!

Without the cereal though this didn’t do a great job of holding me over for lunch. I wound up getting hungry around 10 and snacked on some Dr. Kracker’s Cherry Semolina crisps. These are absolutely delicious!

The serving size is 8 but I probably had about 12, they are so delicious.

Lunch today was an old favorite, rice pilaf, green beans, and broccoli all mixed together.

What a horrible picture of one of my favorite flavor combos. I can’t get enough of it I crave this at least once a week.

After work Andrew and I decided to go out to eat. It’s been a while since we went out just the 2 of us for dinner so we went to our favorite local restaurant, Harborside Bar and Grill. It was a beautiful day so we got to enjoy being outside on the patio. To start I had a house salad with balsamic dressing on the side.

I used about a 1/4 of the dressing with my fork dips before almost every bite. It’s amazing but before I would have easily used 1/2 of it or more, dipping the fork in is just as flavorful and definitely a calorie saver.

Then our waitress brought out some fabulous rolls. I of course had one.

Warm and doughy, it was perfect.

For dinner I had the Rigatoni Pomadora, a fresh tomato basil sauce, with rigatoni and fresh mozzarella balls throughout.

This sauce is the freshest tasting sauce ever, I don’t think I could make it even 1/2 as good as they do. I would love to be able to buy a jar of this sauce. I have about 1/2 of this left for tomorrows lunch.

After dinner we stopped by to visit my sister and parents since she’s been bugging me for the past 3 days to come over. It was a nice night hanging out on their patio enjoying the weather. After it rained for almost all of May and June, it’s definitely made me appreciate the past 2 weeks, we’ve had the most beautiful sunny, warm days lately, and I’m definitely grateful for them!

Uh Oh…

This is my first experience with drogging, is that what we’re calling it? Caitlin? Maybe you can answer, because my hiccups might be preventing me from looking up the proper verbage. That’s not a word? Oh well.

For breakfast today in order to keep myself on schedule I had 2 waffles. They were good but the syrup was better. I had whatever I had left of the sugar free syrup on my whole grain Van’s waffles.

Yum yum yum, sideways and all it was fantastic.

For lunch I had a pb and raspberry jam sandwich. I apparently did not take a picture, although I swore I did. Here’s what Google Image Search turned up. Enjoy!

Hiccup Hiccup. For some reason this picture cracks me up .

Dinner was a salad from SaladWorks.

It was some kind of Fiesta, Of that I’m sure, but I’m not sure the name of it.

I ate half of that salad without any of the dressing, I”m saving the rest for tomorrow. I totally ate the rest of that roll though.

And that’s about it, I didn’t eat anything else. But I did enjoy a finely aged box of wine from my dad. Yikes.

Andrew totally edited this post, he said it didn’t even make sense to him, at first. Whoops.

Good Night Everybody, hope you have a great Saturday!

This Too Shall Pass…

Thanks again for all your super sweet comments. I’ll be able to share everything tomorrow, but it’s going to be a pretty rough night for me tonight so I’m going to post quickly. Kate from Cooking With Kate left me a comment yesterday that said,

“…just know that “this too shall pass.”

What a perfect thing to remember when things get a little rough. Really my situation could be a lot worse and I also need to remember to count my blessings.

So let’s jump into today’s eats so I can go unwind and get some sleep!

I slept horribly last night, it took me forever to fall asleep, and when I did it was restless so I was exhausted this morning, I grabbed a Chobani Peach Yogurt on my way out the door.

Lunch today was not planned ahead so I ran out to the outlet center across the street and grabbed a salad.

This salad had:

Romaine Lettuce
Cucs
Jalapenos
red onions
cheddar cheese
and light balsamic vinaigrette

On the side I also had a 9 grain whole wheat roll.

I came home and decided instead of being here all by myself in the apartment I would go to my parents house for dinner. It helped me keep calm to be around my family for sure. We had pasta with spicy spaghetti sauce, on top of mine I added 1.5 tbsps of ricotta cheese.
