It's Recital Time!

The day started out so promising, but it was pouring again by 2pm. BOO!! I booked tomorrow and Monday off work so I hope I get some sunshine in there. I had one of my favourite oat combos for breakfast today. Stayed tuned for tomorrow's morning eats as I have something other than oats planned!

-1 cup water
-1/3 cup Quaker oats
-cinnamon, vanilla, salt -banana
-PB2
-carob chips
Ah, heaven! I used up the last of my PB2 so as soon as I got to work I logged on to The Low Carb Grocery to order more. I was ecstatic to see that they now carry the chocolate PB2! You bet I ordered one of each! I also stocked up on Shiritaki noodles and a few other things that I'll share with you when the order arrives. **To all my Canadian readers....if you want to try PB2, this store ships across the country for pretty decent rates!**

Work plodded along. I decided it was time to post my date picture again. :)
This bucket that I bought is almost gone. Mind you, it's lasted me a few months. I'm not going to buy any for a while once this is gone to try to get myself out of the habit of eating them most days of the week. I think too much of a good thing can be....well, too much.

I ran into a bit of a dilemma over the lunch hour. DD needed new nylons for the recital tonight that I forgot about, but I wanted to hit up the gym. Solution? I skipped morning break, hit the gym a little earlier for a 35 minute run then ran to Zellers (like Target) to pick up the tights. Luckily for me, the store is fairly close to my work. The plan worked out beautifully...

The half hour went by wicked fast because I chatted the whole time with a co worker who was on the elliptical. Between the 2 of us there was a lot of heavy breathing going on! *wink* On my way to the store I ate a banana rhubarb muffin;
Lunch was pretty good for a microwave meal! I combined this Lean Cuisine Oriental Ginger Beef Stir Fry...
with some steamed broccoli to bulk it up...
Lunch was served. And yummalicious. A lady I work with was 100% impressed with the fact that I added broccoli to the mix. It's a foreign thought to me that people wouldn't do this, but I suppose that's a bit of tunnel vision on my part!

I scored some melon and grapes from the staff kitchen that were leftover from a meeting, too;
Most days when I download my picture's to the computer I find some funny ones that the kids have taken "behind my back". I don't mind this....I actually find it pretty hilarious. DS would have to be the biggest culprit. Here are a few pictures that I found today...


What a ham! I popped a few of these in my yapper this afternoon,
I love the chocolate filled Werther's!

Dinner was a quickie again tonight. I had a BBQ'd Yves Veggie dog on a WW wrap with smashed LC and avocado. There was also some peach bruschetta going on there;
All wrapped up with a side of fruit;
Dessert saw me eating some of this Caramilk treat the the boys bought me;
Mmmmm....I had 2 pieces. Here's a cross section;

Now I must jet as it's time to get the girl prepped and ready for show time. She has to be at the theatre for 6:45 and the show starts at 7:30. I love going to the recitals....they're a ton of fun! Have a great evening!

Bye for now!
