Sorry I’ve been MIA today. That exam sucked up all of my time! Again, I spent 6 hours at Starbucks studying. I’m not going near Starbucks again for awhile.
Breakfast
The rest of yesterday’s Green Monster.
Breakfast quinoa.
- 1/4 c. quinoa
- 1/4 c. water
- 1/4 c. 2% milk
(I’m out of skim, and don’t want to buy more since I’ll be gone for a week!) - 1 apple, chopped, with cinnamon and microwaved 30 seconds
- Almond butter
- Pumpkin butter
It has been far too long since I’ve had this delicious breakfast! Okay, it hasn’t been that long, but I’m completely in love with this breakfast.
And the usual at Starbucks.
Lunch
A whole wheat tortilla with hummus, walnuts, spinach and the last of the rutabaga fries.
A granola bar I made last night. My camera apparently ate the picture.
On the bright side, I almost have the dry:wet ingredients ratio down!
Oikos (plain) + raspberries. I put some of the raspberries from our freezer (remember the 11 pints we bought a few weeks back?) in a container, and by the time I was ready to eat them, they were perfectly thawed and juicy. Fresh-picked raspberries that have been frozen are so much better than the bags of frozen berries at the grocery store!
And a little popcorn to hold me over to dinner. I was going to make spaghetti squash, but Kelley suggested getting sushi from the place across the street for our “date night.” I’m not going to turn down a good California roll!
What’s your favorite kind of sushi? I need to branch out more, so I’m taking suggestions!
Today was a good day in the blog-world of food, too:
1. I won the Pirate’s Booty giveaway from Leslie’s blog. Thanks, Leslie!
2. I ordered GloBars from Angela, since her U.S. shipping started today! I’m excited to try them!




































Breakfast quinoa sounds delicious! I would have never thought to come up with something like that. Enjoy your day! xoxo
