I'm sleep deprived and exhausted! My husband is working non-stop. This will end soon,but until then I am holding down the fort with 2 kiddos; dressing, feeding, entertaining, bathing, and doing bedtime. And you know me, I look to sweets and coffee to perk me up. I started the morning off well with Wheatabix but the good old DD enticed me on the way to the grocery store. I was out of coffee at home and there aren't drive throughs around here for coffee expect Dunkin...so of course I then have to treat myself to a doughnut. I'm going to be honest...I totally ate a chocolate glaze doughnut also that didn't make it into the picture...I was going to keep it a secret...but that's the point of this blog right, to be honest. Breakfast: A bowl of Wheatabix, an iced coffee with 1 sugar and cream, a coffee doughnut and a chocolate glaze doughnut! Ugh!
To make up for the morning shame I had a huge salad for lunch. I use to hate eating salads at home, I always thought they tasted better at restaurants. I mentioned this to a friend and she said probably because they can toss it with the dressing better. I think she was right and I think they also use a lot more dressing than I was. So now I toss my salad in a huge mixing bowl with a good amount of dressing. It's so much better that way! I wish I would have done this sooner. I know some of you are thinking, well more dressing means more calories and fat. The way I see it is, I buy light dressing and so what if I put a ton on. It's way better than me eating fried chicken. If I like the salad I make today, I'm more likely to make it again soon; instead of fried chicken; this is my defense. Lunch: Mixed spring salad, with roasted chicken, and kalamata olives covered in light honey mustard dressing. (I think the salad looks little in the pic however, that is a dinner plate).
We gave-in tonight and got personal pizzas from the Italian restaurant across the street. So glad I had the salad for lunch but wish I had done some hiking or walking....it was too cold today!
Dinner: Arugula, sausage, mozzarella pizza. (I ate all but 2 pieces)
Dessert: Too full!
