Hungry hippo
That’s how I feel today.
Look.
Dessert that I’m eating RIGHT now. Optimum Slim cereal (oh the irony), PB puffins, spoonin some PB choco crack, dollop of white choco/raspberry fruit dip.
Din was comfort food but I managed to eat mostly salad and just 55g of that veggie spiral pasta with Dad’s sauce.
- veggie spiral pasta with Dad’s marinara
- spinach/green leaf lettuce salad, cukes, carrot, maters, cherries, goat cheese, homemade pesto croutons, lf rasp/walnut dressing
- water
To be honest, these veggie spirals aren’t so good. They’re cute. But the fiber content is paltry compared to whole wheat grains. Just pretty colored semolina, which is fine, but I prefer chewier, whole grain-type pastas. But the salad was insanely good. I shoulda just eaten that. But nope. This hungry hippo ignored her filling belly and kept on plowing thru the rest of dinner.
*whispers*
and dessert
Exercise was that crazy person Jillian. Yeah. I still hate her. Today I hated the chair sits and arm raises.
Hated.
Ugh. I’m just in such a mood tonight. I have to take the dog to my aunt’s house b/c she’s very kindly dog-sitting for us this weekend. And I’m just dreading leaving the dog. Her 1st time away from me. How crazy, right? Grrr…
My afternoon snack was half a blueberry OIKOS (good!) and half that almond butter ball you see down there. It’s not very good. It has a very fake chemical taste to it, which I don’t understand since it’s supposed to be natural and raw. Very weird. I won’t buy another one.
Oh hey, work is crazed. I can’t even remember my day, it flew by so fast. Balls. BALLS in the air.
Lunch was fun cuz I got to have the last scrapings of my creamy hazelnut butter on that snappy little apple.
On Mr. Stripey…
- 2 slices Applegate Farms ham + 1 slice American + lettuce + honey dijon
- organic carrot
- empire apple with creamy hazelnut butter scrapings
- 1 snickerdoodle from last week’s Auction/Bake Sale
Oh yeah, that’s right…these dudes are AMAZING. Meg did a fabulous job baking them. My coworker was the winning bidder for them, and brought some in to work today to share. Totally amazing.
Ok. Gotta get the dog in the car and up the road.
*cries* I’ll miss her.
<———crazy lady
Nite.
P.S. Here’s my “going out” camera. I have 2 cameras. This one’s pink. Cuz I’m a girl.
See…

Jessica says:The girly going-out camera is adorable. I approve.
Glad to know that the balls weren’t that good, I always see them at this one store and have always been intrigued to try them…but not anymore!
The colorful pasta swirls, salad and dessert look delicious of course. Sorry the veggie swirls aren’t as tasty as they look, at least you now know to go back to the plain-o brown ones for some yummy whole wheat goodness for next time!

Marianne says:You crushed Yoda with a carrot (in the first lunch photo).
And good to see you have a going out camera. How do you like it photo quality wise? I need to get a small point & shoot myself that I can throw in my purse.
And I know what you mean about those veggie pastas. I find they don’t even really taste much different from normal pasta.

Jenny says:I need a “going out” camera…mine is just not holding up the way I’d like it too haha.
Sorry those “nut butter balls” were disappointing, they look deceiving enough to appear to have promise, silly.
Have a good weekend!!

Melissa (Nibbles and Wiggles) says:I don’t think it’s crazy at all to worry about leaving your dog. My in-laws watch my dogs all the time and I worry about leaving them each time. I hope you have a nice get-away.

K says:Sorry you had some yucky balls
Aw I always miss my pupper when I go away! I’m always tempted to call and “talk” to her but I don’t want to be that crazy person…

allijag says:I got one of those balls in a blogger exchange - I thought the same exact thing - I took a bite and threw it out (felt bad doing it because the blogger was just trying to be nice) - but I thought they were pretty terrible!
