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?

Aw.  Can everyone see how hard it is for me to leave this gal at home each day, when I have to go to work?  She’s silently praying to the door gods to open the blinds for her to see the morning light.

Once she abandons the door gods, she then turns to Mommy and Daddy to help a gal out. 

This is what I had to say goodbye to this morning.  I mean, are you flarking kidding me???

I think I’m meant to be a stay-at-home Doggy Mommy.  Is that a job?

Dinner was Erin fabu with a ginorm salad, toasted bread, and fresh farmers market corn!

The salad =

• green leaf lettuce
• spinach
• cuke
• maters
• carrot
• peanuts
• apple crisp Dr. Krackers
• GOAT CHEESE
• tossed in rasp walnut vingrt.

This cutie kept me chewing for at least 20 minutes.  How fun is that?

Ok, I have to take a break for a moment and let you know that I switched it up tonight and am enjoying a glass of Italian Pinot Grigio.  And every time I shove my nose into the glass for a whiff, it smells likes diapers.  What is THAT about?

Exercise = assorted arm work and ab work that I won’t bore you with.  Took about 30 minutes.

Thursday Farmers Market Loot.

• 2 Jersey maters
• 4 ears corn
• 2 heads broccoli
• 1 teeny cuke
• 1 green pepper
• 1 onion
• 1 cubanelle pepper

All for $10!!!

Lunch in da cube farm.

The norm = a sam + carrot + cherries.  Bored?  I am.

That’s some fierce Artisan macadamia nut butter up there.  Fierce and fab all in one lovely package!

  Breks was a strawberry banana smoothie that was great.  I especially like the polar bear side dish. 

 Ok, I gotta jet and watch SYTYCD results b/c I’m way overly invested in this show.

Oh, wait.

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!
