Yesterday wasn’t as productive as I had planned it to be. While doing some things on my computer around 1:00 p.m. I closed my eyes and didn’t wake up until 5:30 p.m. when David came home and woke me up! I know my body needed it after only getting four hours of sleep for the 15k, but I was still bummed to have so many things unfinished. Luckily I’m off today too!
David and I were planning on going out to dinner for a little date, but I was more in the sleepy, sweat pants kind of mood so we ordered Chinese take-out instead!
I ordered steamed tofu, veggies and brown rice with a gigantic side of sauce. This is a very plain and fresh dish. Sometimes that is best! I had some mixed greens topped with an Asian ginger dressing for even more greens!
I started this morning with a big bowl of Life cereal, Fruit Not Fat granola and water. Yep, I’m out of “milk” so I’m using water :) As long as the water is cold it tastes fine.
Snack Dilemma
I love fresh fruit for snacks, but sometimes I want or need something more substantial. I often find myself in between lunch and dinner with only a piece of fruit and a much larger appetite. I’ve been eating Larabars or KIND bars- which are both great- but my wallet isn’t loving it. I’ve challenged myself to make a simple, substantial and cost-effective bar that I can toss in the lunch box for some mid-day fuel.
Of course Angela was my first stop for a good recipe! After some browsing I’ve decided to make her version of the Banana Bread Larabars. I’ll be back later to let you know how it goes!
What are your favorite snacks?
