Boy, morning always comes so fast and I was starvin’ Marvin when I woke up! No time to wait, I fixed up breakfast right away. A wafflewich was calling my name…
I ate it so fast, I don’t even remember it! I hate when I do that! Note to self: TAKE YOUR TIME. Because right after I shoveled ate it, I had a craving for chocolate! Why is the UNIVERSE torturing me??!!! I mean, REALLY, do I have to fight morning cravings now, too??!! I ran out of the kitchen and busied myself with getting the daughters off to school.
I had to skip the gym so that I could tidy up at home and prepare for my lunch guest, Rosemary and her little guy…
He is such a cutie pie!!! I had fun snuggling him up and catching up with my friend!
We took a snuggle break and ate some lunch. I had prepared an Italian Chicken Salad; a great recipe from my girl at the Food Network…
I served it on lettuce with a side salad and a slice of Seven Grain Bread…
and some red pepper hummus…
Such a nice afternoon!
That was the extent of quiet and relaxing; the daughters came home and it was back to reality! We had to head to religion class followed by an ice cream social which I had to help out with, so I decided to give everyone a quick Annie’s mac and cheese dinner with some veggies before we left. The daughters were not loving eating dinner at 3:45, but I knew the ice cream would deter them from wanting ANY dinner at all later! So, as not to be tempted during my job as designated “scooper”, I ate a good snack before leaving, too – Chobani nonfat peach yogurt topped with Pecan Sticky Bun granola (* do NOT buy this, it is EVIL) and about 45 more handfuls of granola – GAH!
I scooped without incident. A little while after getting home, I had a small bowl of dinner leftovers…
I’m realizing that I’m going to have to get better at pre-planning some dinner for these busy nights. Can’t eat mac and cheese every time…actually, that wouldn’t be soooo awful ;P
Hope you all had a great day!
ONE GOOD THING: The Pecan Sticky Bun Granola is almost gone :D
