sleepy time for me

/

Whoa.  Completely exhausted.  I am not used to 8hrs of being on my feet running around non-stop.  I probably didn’t need that work out this morning!!  I need to get to bed because I’m back at work again tomorrow at 10 and again on Monday.

These soup crocks hold my oats perfectly :)

FANtastic!  With a side of coffee :)  After breakfast I headed to the farmer’s market with Ann.  There was SO much more there this week and I actually spotted some GREEN produce.  Lettuce is starting to come in..yippee!  I bought a dozen eggs [per usual], a jar of pickled peppers, and LOCAL wheatberries!!  I was excited about the wheatberries being local, hehe.

I went to the gym for a cardio workout.  I wanted to swim today but the 2 pool’s I checked didn’t have Adult Lap swim today, boo!  So I settled for elliptical [with arms] for 30min and bike for 10min.  Aaaand, very exciting, I finally finished Born To Run.  Holy smokes…amazing amazing book.

Lunch.

  • Ezekiel tortilla
  • ~1T tomato paste
  • mixed greens
  • 2 eggs [pour, poke, spread method]
  • 1-2T sunflower seeds [for CRUnch!]

I took this with me to work, in case I was in need of a snack before or after dinner.  This was my first time having the Key Lime Pie LB.

We get 2, 15min breaks and 1, 30min break.  During my 30min I tore into this plate of deliciousness.

  • cucumber noodle salad

  • Israeli couscous with squash + asparagus – Loved the texture of this couscous!! 
  • Salad – romaine + kale + tamari roasted pepitas + egg + chickpeas + tofu

Super yummy dinner :) I made up a dressing that was DElicious!!! It incldued:  balsamic vinegar, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil

Snacked on half of this for dessert and the other half during my last 15min break.  I was on the go-go-go the entire shift and totally starving again at the end of the night.  This Lime LB was reallllllllly awesome.  I LOVED it.  I stayed away from the lemon + key lime LB’s for so long because they just sounded gross mixed with dates.  However, they are both my favorites!  I still also like the pg+j, pecan pie, and maybe 1 or 2 others.  I tried the tropical bar recently and HATED it.  Way to strong tasting for me and it was dry for some reason.

Anywho…lemon + key lime Larabars = YUM

I’m icing my foot now because it actually started acting up on me during my shift :( Laaame!!  I’m off to LITerally CRASH into bed!

Congrats to Kath + Emily on their SUPER amazing 1/2 marathon times and stories.  I love reading race recaps!!  Wish I could have been running that race again this year!
