Alright kids, hold onto your britches because we got a big one coming your way! Since there has been no “This and That” post this week, I am going to weave it into today’s.  So please, follow along (if you can).

First and foremost, I need to thank y’all for your “get out of a funk” suggestions yesterday.  Even though I’m not feeling completely out of the hunches yet, I just got back from a 3 mile run + yoga and am feeling lots better. Amazing what a lil’ endorphin rush can do, no?

Brekkie went unphotographed because I was inhaling my Barbara’s Vanilla Almond Shredded Oatmeal + skim milk plus a naner + AB as I was walking out the door.  Funny thing is, I wasn’t late for work.

 

Listen up peeps, this is how we do,
Delish dot com has some sammie ideas too.
I know y’all need some inspiration,
so pack up your lunch boxes for a meal celebration!


I was def a lil’ funkalicious throughout the day today, including splaying myself on the floor in our office.  Suddenly, our co-worker came barging in with a metal jousting helmet on and scared the bejeezus out of all of us.  Yes, a guy that works down the hall is a legit medieval times jouster.  No lie.

Lunchie was leftovers from last night’s Veggie Thai Red Curry

mmmm, mmmm good!

and some bluebs just for good measure

Miss Special K only treats us kind,
encouraging us to share yourself and mind.
Head on over to swap some goodies,
and share the love with all your fellow foodies!


After the red curry, I think the spiciness upset my tum-tum a bit so I dug into my snack a bit early…

Chocolate Brownie PURE Bar (smaller than a business card - fo reals)

I know, I really need to get over the size of these bars.  However, the flavor? AMAZING.

 

My snacky lil’ girl with the fabulous face,
is VegTastic and leaving her fave place.
She giving away some uber-awesome schtuff,
so head on over because Kailey’s off the cuff!


Later in the afternoon, I let my funk get the best of me, and I dived (or dove?) into a handful of these…

Milk Duds...my fave candy eva.

A handful of Raisinets might have also entered my mouth. And I’ve been reminded, some sour watermelon slices.

 

My new fave blog has the biggest prize,
Jessie’s got a Vita-Mix – ain’t no lie.
Enter now for this magic machine,
smoothies, sauces and goods – you will gleen!


After gorging myself on sugar and on the verge of a fructose coma, I finished up the day and walked my buns home. Then I threw on my running gear, ran 1.5 miles to the gym, sweated out with a 75 minute yoga sesh (FULL of downward dogs + chaturangas = sore arms) and ran 1 mile home.

Then I devoured the most delicious bowl of yog eva!

Plain Chobani, mushed naner, buttloads of cinnamon, Vanilla Almond squares + raw AB

After dindin, I had a phone date with our fave Brit Angharad and now I gots to shower, clean this place up and hit the hay.

 

My bloggy changes are comin’ soon,
so don’t go leaving to rocket to the moon.
I promise the same stuff with a bit o’ sass,
peace out and much love from this g-ma lass!


 

Whoooooooo whooooooooo!

  8. janetha Says:

    haha loved the intermingling of blogging and linking. way to multitask! ugh, that yogurt buttery bowl is kill.ing.me. so bomb to the dot com. um, that bar is too tiny for my liking! (TWSS) they need to take it up a notch in the size category.. cause yes, size does matter. milk duds! so good! i miss candy sometimes… LOVE TO YOU

  9. WholeBodyLove Says:

    I love yogurt messes! The nut butter really makes it divine.

  10. Lainie Says:

    You are hilarious! And I love milk duds too. I haven’t had them in ages, but man, now I was some BADLY.

  11. LOL… You crack me up 😀

    Raisenettes? Good call, chica. Yogurt bowl sounds awesome! Does raw almond butter taste much different from roasted?

    RE medeival dude: I really want to go to one of those jousting events where you get medeival feast, watch fights, etc. Too cool (or nerdy?!)

  12. Alison Says:

    Yogurt mess, how I love thee? Let me count the ways.

    Chomp, Chomp, Chomp, 1, 2. 3!

    Loved the jousting story, I can totally picture it.

  13. I’m in love with your yogurt mess…my oh my oh my. Total deliciousness!

  14. Whit Says:

    No one rhymes like you. Such a rhyming fool you are. I mean that with the highest regard.

  15. brandi Says:

    i love all the rhymes 🙂

    and….is it strange that I also work with someone who does the medieval reenactments? i mean, teaching archery on the side, fencing…even a medieval wedding!

  16. april Says:

    You have the most yummy looking yogurt combos! Mmm!!

  17. lowandbhold Says:

    I’m glad you’re feeling better! This post certainly cheered me right on up!! 🙂

  18. ksgoodeats Says:

    Hah – MONDO!! Milk Duds were a prominent feature of many Halloweens in my life! Those things are fantastic (although they rip my teeth out)! Oh, and those watermelon slices? Loved those too!

    Delish din! Greek yogurt never gets old!! Hope you’re having a great Friday!

  19. Evan Thomas Says:

    Tight rhymes, and those blueberries are making me jealous. I went to finish off the ones I picked last month and there was mold on them–no so good anymore

  20. Gahhh I love the yogurt mess for dinner! I’ve totes done that before going out on the town. Perfect balance of protein+fat+carbs fo drankin! If only I could find a high-protein vegan yogurt… Blasted!

    Um, thanks for the killa shout out! Yo rappin’ skillz be off da chain! Can you tell I listen to too much hip hop? Wait. There’s no such thing as too much.

    This post just made my morning. Grazie. Have a fab Friday!

  21. Faith Says:

    So funny! I can’t wait to see your bloggy changes! 😉

  22. jenngirl Says:

    Loved it!! Glad a little endorphin boost helped your funk, hope it’s completely gone today!

    Mmm I’m gunna have to start doing cereal messes for dinner, looks so joyous 😉

  23. Katharina Says:

    Oh my goodness! At first I thought those were bananas or plantains in your veggie curry. I bet that would be awesome actually 😀 The thing I don’t like about Milk Duds is that they get stuck in every crevice of my teeth

    I hope you have a fun-filled weekend and enjoy the rest of your day, love!

    X’s and O’s!

  24. Jenny Says:

    this one def. belongs in the “this and that” hall o’ fame.

    have a great weekend sugarpie!

  25. I have the same issue with the Pure bars. It’s a mental block for me. They’re SO small.

  26. Oh, I LOVE blueberries! Do you ever eat ’em frozen? YUM!

    I love Greek yogurt, too. I’ve never had Chobani, though–just Oikos.

    (I followed over from Gena’s blog, by the way.) 😉

  27. glidingcalm Says:

    No way! I always adored Milk Duds too!!

    I’ve only tried the Blueberry Pure Bar…..Brownie looks yummy though! But yeah……im not a fan of small things either! 😦
