Farmerz Market Thursdayz
Blog friends. Erin got her yoga groove on after work today. I’m no Rodney, but I hold my own.
Mountain pose (exhale).
Chair pose (inhale).
I did 30 minutes of this, plus another 20 minutes of arm weights and walking push ups.
Thursdays are my local Farmers Market day, so I always zip there right after work. Today’s $10 loot was…
- loaf of artisan whole grain bread
- locally grown green leaf lettuce
- cubanelle pepper
- green pepper
- 3 ears of corn
We ate the corn as an appetizer before dinner tonight. It was perfect. Sweet, crisp, buttery. Loved! No pics snapped of Din b/c it was just a repeat of dinner from the other night, plus a ginorm spinach salad with goat cheese, cubanelle peppers, dried cherries, and rasp/walnut dressing.
Things are still stuck in a rough patch over this way.
Onto prettier items!
Like my lunch…
- ham + cheese + SMASHED AVOCADO + spinach (so dang delish)
- organic carrot + garlicy hummus among us
- yet another bowl of fierce as hell cherries!

Breks was a smoothie that was something special, I think cuz I used extra yogurt in it today! Like my globe? It’s vintage. Got it at an antique shop in town. I love it. Lots of countries have names that don’t even exist anymore!
Last night’s dinner, that I forgot to post this morning. This was amazeballs. Veggie (green peppers, sweet taters, mushrooms) lentil korma curry served over quinoa with toasted bread on the side. There’s no doubt, I’ve been indulging in carbs this week. Luckily I’m working out a good amount too…so there’s a good balance (I think).
And there were a few glasses of this Nobilo Sauv Blanc from the Marlborough region in New Zealand. It was very melony in the deep-nose whiff, which was fun and diff for a Sauv Blanc. This wine will be making repeat appearances in the IWITW household.
Ok. Time to unwind and see which boring dancers got kicked off SYTYCD tonight.
Nite!

Christina says:Mashed avocado is my #1 sandwich topping - it’s so good! And I love the globe. I always wanted one in my office when I “grew up” but now I’m grown up and don’t have an office. I should just put one in my bedroom!

Marianne says:Old globes & atlases are always so interesting, to see how much political boundries have changed, and all the different countries that now exist.
Do you do yoga with a dvd? I would like to get into yoga via video, but have no clue what would be a good one to start with.
