So Nice To See You Again!

Hello Weekend! Where have you been all week long!? Hiding far far away, but I am SO glad you are back and it’s so nice to see you again! šŸ™‚

I’ve really had a hard couple of days at work so I feel like this one is well deserved!

Yesterdays breakfast was not tic tacs! I ended up eating my cottage cheese and quite a few snacks:

almonds

Lunch included my butternut squash chicken burgers again! Yum. These are so good. I really could eat one every day. Going to become a regular for me.

Hot sauce on the veggies!

I also had my protein shake. I’ve been asked about what I drink several times now! I either do Designer Whey chocolate, EAS Vanilla (my least favorite, but I bought a huge bag from BJs and refuse to throw it away), Jay Robb strawberry, and Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Cookies and Cream. Here’s a little link to an amazon page I set up where you can buy some of the things I’ve been asked about!

AMAZON FAVORITES!

I couldn’t have been more thrilled to leave work in the afternoon. Even though I didn’t feel 100%, Ā I changed for the gym anyway

My dinner was a pork chop with Mrs. Dash on top and roasted brussels sprouts and sugar snap peas! Mmmm I just love olive oil veggies šŸ™‚

I threw the sugar snap peas on the tray the last 5 minutes or so

I laughed hysterically after taking this one. She’s mid jump! Doesn’t she look like a little stuffed animal or cartoon here? It reminds me of Pokemon or something with the twinkle in her big eyes!

I was so exhausted I sat in my chair for the rest of the night, watched tv and caught up on texts. This is a typical convo between my BFF DiPeppe and I. I think I’ve mentioned before we do not have much in common at all and half the time we yell at each other for liking different things! We were discussing movies and I was appalled that she’s never seen Willy Wonka, and hates Office Space and The Goonies

We sent the Full House thing at the same time, that's why I say BFF ESP. It was very random. And yes, I will NEVER get over the fact that she hates Full House. It's one of my favorite shows of all time! Why don't you just hate saved by the bell too? And friends!?

John Stamos.. I’d still marry him! I follow him on Facebook too šŸ™‚

I know I seem lazy without a recipe again but it’s so much work and I definitely need my rest, I’ll have one up tomorrow!

XOXO With a Cherry On Top,

    Yeah…EAS Vanilla is kind of gross if you ask me. I was so glad when I finished that batch. Oh! I been meaning to ask if anyone has ever asked how much you would charge to fix them dinner? I know you give the recipes and all but what’s the going rate? LOL!
