I Walk In This World

Yesterday’s eats were chock full of leftovers, and I couldn’t have been happier about it!

1. It helps clean out the fridge (which is good for my anal Hubz who’s a bit of a nazi about fridge order)
2. It’s an easy meal
3. Lots of foods often taste better the next day!

Din last night was my leftover Chinese food, consisting of broccoli in garlic sauce over quinoa (my addition) instead of rice.  And Hubz and I split those last 2 steamed vegetable dumplings.  To drink I had a glass (or 2) of the Four Sisters suav blanc from the other night.  I think this meal was as good, or better than the night we ordered it!

To keep my and soul in shape, I did a 20 minute run on the treadmill followed by a circuit set of leg weights and ab work.  Only a 35 minute workout front to back.

Work is working me out and not in a good way.  The end.

Lunch was another set of yumtastic leftovers.

• leftover korma curry with lentils, sweet potato, zukes, green beans, peppers, and a little bit of chicken
• a side of doughy (love) farmers market bread
• a beautifully large dish of 

Did I mention that work is ?

Whatevs.

Breks was a smoothie amongst veg.

• mango
• banana
•   
• almond milk + ice
• strawberry yogurt ala Stonyfield

And lastly, there’s a fun giveaway happening over at Running Around Normal if you want to try new Larabars!

Question.  Do you eat leftovers?  What’s your favorite kind?

Hi blog friends,

I should be back to post later tonight, but a quick reminder to enter IWITW’s Apple Sauce GIVEAWAY!  It ends at 8pm EST tonight!

Good luck friends.

Morning Blog Peeps!

It’s time for an IWITW super fun GIVEAWAY!

I’m teaming with Musselman’s® to offer THREE prizes of their new Healthy Picks®, applesauce! 

Healthy Picks® is a new product line of apple sauce designed specifically for people with active, healthy lifestyles. The new apple sauce is made without added sugar and is a good source of fiber, calcium, vitamin C and antioxidants. 

I’ve personally sampled all three fabulous new flavors and can honestly state that I really love them all - Raspberry Acai, Blueberry Pomegranate and Key Lime Cupuacu.

Raspberry Acai – The acai berry grows atop trees in Brazil and is full of antioxidants, vitamin C, and vitamin E.

Blueberry Pomegranate  - The powerful pomegranate is a superfruit brimming with antioxidants, potassium, niacin, and vitamin C.

Key Lime Cupuacu - The melon-like cupuacu is grown in Brazil and is an antioxidant rich superfruit packed with B vitamins and amino acids.

Best of all, from my perspective in terms of Ethical Eating, Musselman’s is a grower owned cooperative in which the growers take special pride in providing only the highest quality apples for their products.  And they’re based in my home state of PA, which makes me even happier to promote their product.

IWITW and Musselman’s® are offering three prizes, meaning, we will have THREE winners in this GIVEAWAY.

Each winner will receive ONE of the new lines of Healthy Picks.  Someone will win the Raspberry Acai, someone will win the Blueberry Pomegranate, and someone will win the Key Lime Cupuacu.

1. Just leave a comment on this post.
2. If you promote it on your blog, you win 2 extra entries in the contest.

IWITW will use a random number generator to select the winners.  The GIVEAWAY ends this THURSDAY, 7/23, at 8pm EST. 

Good Luck!

Ahhh…the suspense. 

1. First you must baby me for still being mega sick. 
2. Second you must read my eats for Wednesday. 
3. Third you must tell me who your favorite of the crazies on Housewives of NJ is.

And only then, young grasshoppers, are you allowed to see who won the VT Maple Peanut Butter!!!

Last night’s dinner was total comfort food.  It’s weird.  When I’m sick, I’m craving carbs.  Must be my body telling me it needs fuel.  Hubz dished up my plate and told me to eat the whole thing.  I didn’t argue!

• baked rotini
• romaine + spinach salad
• water

We ate this and watched SYTYCD.  I am so in love with this year’s dancers.  SO talented.  Way more talented than the drivel on American Idol.

Yesterday I didn’t do much.  Mostly laid on the bed, blowed my nose, and cuddled with my dog.  I watched ohsomany epis of Sex and the City.  This is the dvd equivalent of comfort food.  Comfort tv. 

Lunch was more soup.  I managed to get some veg in there with carrots from the farmers market.  And a few fire roasted Dr. Krackers.  I watched the finale of Real Housewives of NJ.  Woah.  Dey some crizAZY b’s.  I totally hope they do a 2nd season.

 The morning was quiet.  Just tryin to get healthy. 

Breks…

• half a ww english muffin with eggwhites and peppers + LC cheese + hot sauce
• berry smoothie with Stonyfield ff yogurt, half a banana, half a cup of cranberry juice, half a cup of frozen berries, 1/4 cup of fresh blueberries
• lobster coffee

I’m now wishing I had brought home more than 1 extra jar of the peanut butter for the GIVEAWAY.  There’ve been 100+ entries and I wish I could give you all this jar of deliciousness!!

*drumrolllllllllll*

And the winner of the VT Maple Peanut Butter GIVEAWAY is!!!
