Hi!
I got my camera! I’m still working on learning and trying to take good pics.
Friday breakfast was chocolate overnight oats with carob chips, almond butter and black berries.
I was super busy all day and didn’t think I was going to have time to eat lunch, but around 2:00 I scarfed down this little number.
I had also purchased this side salad, but I didn’t have time to eat it and realize that I wasn’t really hungry for it anyways.
I wasn’t able to leave work at 5, but finally got out a little before 6. Upon leaving the office I realized that at some point during the day I had lost my brand new hat! I am so disappointed!
I Joined the girls for some drinks after work. I had 2 baileys and a tempranillo. I had a bit of the artichoke dip and bread that they had ordered before I go there. A few of the girls ordered dinner, but I wasn’t hungry so I spent the rest of the evening drinking water. Around 8:30-9:00 the place we were at started turning the music up. The smokers went outside and for the 15 minutes they were gone the music was turned up 3 times! I guess I am an old woman because as soon as they got back I said my goodbyes and headed for the train.
I got home a little after 10:30; I was hungry, but wasn’t going to stay up too late so I made some popcorn with cinnamon, cocoa powder, carob chips and a bit of agave nectar. It was gina/fitnessista inspired and yummy!
I slept like a rock and woke up a good 10 hours later. Overnight oats again this morning with carob chips and peanut butter. Of course I had coffee to!
This afternoon I went grocery shopping and decided to make some chili. I threw out the EDBV chili worked off a recipe in The Vegan Table that I made before. While cooking I enjoyed some of this:
I decided I wanted some sweet potatoes in my chili so I subbed them in instead of pinto beans.
I also added 1/4 cup of quinoa and just shy of 1/2 cup of this:
I also added 2 cups of veggie broth so the quinoa could soak it up.
While I was waiting for the chili to simmer I had some organic red wine:
And a salad of fire roasted peppers, goat cheese and walnuts.
It was after 3:30 by the time I actually had lunch!
Yummy chili with some Trader Joe’s everything crackers and cilantro.
Plans for the rest of the day include a quick stop at whole foods and a scrub down of the kitchen. Then I plan to take it easy and maybe have some more popcorn!
