What I'm Reading This Week #34
Hello you sassy beast! Ready for another flip flappin' fantastic weekend? Yes indeedy, Ally Sheedy. It's been a week of working ahead for me as I try to work on ideas for holiday posts. I know, no one is ready for Christmas but spit balling stuff is actually getting me excited for the season. I like to try to give myself the month of December off from writing new posts (except updating weekly happenings) so all I have to do is respond if needed. It lets me take a little mental break during the holidays to try to enjoy what I can then hop back into the new year hopefully rested and ready to roll. We did book our 30th anniversary trip, which is the same one we had to cancel this year and of course got travel insurance. It's just nice to have something to hopefully look forward to and it makes you go "where the heck did 4 1/2 years go?" because it seems like just yesterday we were celebrating our 25th. Do people even celebrate their 30t...
Wow, that all looks delicious (except the Nutella...I don't get what people like about that stuff, but I could totally do peanut butter or chocolate on that banana).
ReplyDeleteAnd it doesn't look like anywhere near 2000 calories. I wonder if my calculations on my food are off somehow.
OK, so I know this is probably a hassle...but it is AWESOME! I feel so uninspired with my eating, and this is something that looks delicious, can be replicated, and could be tweaked to fit my calories REALLY easily. If we asked really, really, really nice might you consider doing this a little more often? Pretty pleeeeeease???
ReplyDeleteCheri- I shall take over your Nutella ration because I don't want it to go to waste! :) There are 240 calories of pure excess in the apple dip and the cereal bar but I figure for as long as I can enjoy them, I will and those will be the first thing to be cut. I like to keep it flexible.
ReplyDeleteAnnie- I'd be more than happy to do them if people are interested. I just figured people would find them boring, especially since my lunches are pretty similar. But if they can give anyone ideas, I will do them a little more frequently.
Just clicked over from YHL. You are amazing! Keep it up!
ReplyDeleteI love food posts. I photographed my food for an entire month and it was so much fun. I really got into plating everything perfectly and taking the best picture. And it helped with my food tracking because I often forget (or want to forget!) what I've eaten.
ReplyDeleteYou can have my nutella ration as well--I thought I would love it, but not so much. I like the food posts as well--gives me ideas.
ReplyDeleteI LOVE food posts and pictures of food, probably because I LOVE food so much. Your's looks particularly delicious. Course it's breakfast time here and I'm hungry, so that helps with the hunger issue. In fact gonna go eat my breakfast RIGHT NOW!
ReplyDeleteThat banana + Nutella used to be my breakfast all the time! So yummy. And I also love honeycrisp apples and Brussels sprouts and kettle corn--suddenly I'm feeling hungry. :)
ReplyDeleteHOLY YUM! I want everything on this post, especially that Nutella Banana and egg sammie, it spoke to my SOUL lol!!!
