Today was a gray day…a rainy day all day! It was foggy and misty…and reeks havoc with my hair! I went out at lunch and came back with lifeless hair! HA! Flatter than a pancake and bangs in my face. Hate that…little rant over.
This morning I got out of bed early and did some weights and a cardio interval session before getting on with my day.
Breakfast was done up quick.
Flaxseed wrap with egg whites, white cheddar and spinach. Was pretty tasty and did the trick.
My morning snackaroo was a Blueberry Chia muffin
smeared with almond butter…Mmmmmm…so yummy! But stuck to the roof of my mouth like glue…good thing my phone did not ring while I was eating this!
My day was going by pretty quickly lots to do today as my co-worker is on holidays so I have a little more work than usual to contend with!
By time lunch rolled around I ventured out in our gray weather. I really felt like I needed the fresh air and a break after my busy morning. I needed to pick up some Almond Flour and coconut so I headed to the health food store.
I love browsing through Community Natural Health Foods! One of my favourite things to do. I did find some fun new things!
We finally got Doctor Kracker!! So I quickly looked at my choices and grabbed the Sunflower and Cheddar flavour!
This cracker is HUGE!
The size of my HAND! But really good! Love them. However, they are pretty pricey and this will only be a once and a while treat!
I also got some Numi Ruby Chai tea. It was on Sale! Score! This tea is caffeine free and so very good. I love the warm spice of this tea on a cold day like today. Will be savouring every bag in this box!
I also got my “crack”!
Spicy Apple Ginger chews! Love these things and I always have to have a least two at a time..they are just so good!
Lastly I picked up the cutest Bamboo utensil set in a pink pouch! I figure I always carry around utensils for my son maybe I should do the same and cut down on the throwing out the plastic stuff! Plus I never have to worry not having anything to eat with when I pack my food! This will be great for travelling too.
It comes with fork, knife, spoon and chopsticks! It is made by To-Go Ware.
The storage case is made out of recycled plastic bottles! So cool! This set is really light weight and will be easy to carry or even throw into my purse.
When I got back to the office I was starving and dived into my salad right away and forgot to take a picture…but managed to get a pic of what was still left when I remembered! :LOL:
It was a huge jass salad!
In my bowl was:
- Romaine lettuce
- spinach
- carrots
- cherry tomatoes
- red pepper
- chickpeas
- Cucumber
- Squeeze of lemon juice
- Sabra Red Pepper Hummus for the dressing
My big bowl of half gone salad.
The afternoon whizzed by in a flash and before I knew it, it was after 4 o’clock’. I shut down my computer and flew out the door! On my way home I stopped and dropped off our mountain of dry cleaning…that is going to cost a pretty penny I am sure.
In the mailbox today was a little delivery from Amazon! I love getting stuff in the mail.
I got Vive le Vegan. I love my Eat, Drink & Be Vegan so I wanted to add this one as well. I had a little flip through already and I have a few recipes I would like to try already earmarked! I also got another Jillian DVD! I really like her workouts and I wanted to add this to my collection. I think I will be sweating with Jillian in the morning!
Supper
Tonight was a leftovers night for me.
Indian take-out “beefed” up a bit with chickpeas, tomatoes and a side of pan fried zucchini. It was quick and delicious!
For dessert was a Pumpkin Coconut Chocolate Chip Bar warmed up and topped with Vanilla fro-yo with a dollop of pumpkin butter!
Really Fall in a bowl…so yummy! It was gone in seconds!
Well it is now getting late and almost time for bed…but I have a few more things to before i can call it a night so I better get to it!
Catcha later!
