Ice Ice Baby!

OMG the roads were so bad this morning! Thank goodness for only having to go around the block! HAHA This morning I was up before the alarm as usual and started to get ready in hopes my car would start.. I made up a bowl of oats with an extremely ripe nanner... It was so creamy and tasty...mmmmm mmm good! I also brought a mug of coffee with me to warm me up since it was 11 degrees out.

There were only 6 kids in my class today which was extremely nice. Luckily the morning flew by and it was time for lunch and boy was I hungry, I had a Dannon Light and Fit with a pear and some froot loops.. so so good! It was one of the kids birthday so I also had a chocolate munchin for snack.. After work I went to the gym and did 2.25 miles on the treadmill while watching Oprah, and then did some weights.

I came home and did some things around here, and cut up some veggies for my salad.. talked on the phone with my friend Kelli, showered then ate. I had a salad with lots of veggies, hummus, croutons and the last of my Newman's Asian dressing. I also had some leftover sweet tater fries that I burnt in my toaster! UGH! It totally smelled like smoke, so I opened up the windows even though its freezing and lit some candles.. now it smells delish :-D

I was in the candy mood so I had some chocolate covered peanuts (pic x2) lol. Well I hope everyone had a great Tuesday.

Do you have anything exciting going on this week?

I have a work meeting tomorrow and then my brother's fashion show for the Academy of Finance that he is in.. It should be fun!

See ya'll tomorrow!

SNOW DAY!!!!!!!!

I originally took today off from work but ended up having a snow day anyway! We found out last night around 9ish.. I can't believe we got a foot of snow at the Jersey Shore!!! Its exciting but a pain all at the same time. I got up around 8:15 and was so happy to have slept the whole night :)

I made some coffee and a nice bowl of oats. Then I got to making that yummy Irish Soda bread, I kept some for us and gave one to my parents and one to Adam's mom. We then went out and cleaned off the 3 cars which took almost an hour to do! YUCK! Thank goodness the wind wasn't too bad at that moment.. Around 1 I started to get hungry so I had a Yoplait Cinnamon Roll yogurt (not my favorite too sweet!!) and a pear. I also tried a piece of the bread to make sure no one gets sick :-P I cleaned a bit then we took Adam's work truck out to the store from some eggs and bread, and stopped by my parents to drop off the soda bread. I got some stuff done for work then showered and got dinner together. We had some leftover sloppy joes with sweet and regular fries that we made.. MMMM so good! I also had a pickle on the side. Dessert was a chocolate covered peanut and an almond Hershey's kiss... YUM YUM! I am off to relax and watch tv with Adam.. Have a great night guys :-D

Wow This Mini Vaca Is Flying By!

I can't believe its Sunday night already!! Where did the weekend go? I woke up way too early this morning around 6ish but stayed in bed till about 7:30. I got up and made some coffee while checking email and watching the news. I was waiting for Adam to get up to get my oats started, so the minute he was up I was getting my foodage together :) I had my normal bowl of oats (banana, light original soy milk, grape nuts) and my coffee while chatting with Adam as he made his breakfast.

I went to the gym and did 2.5 miles on the treadmill and weights. I came home and we went across the street to A&P for Adam's goodies to make his yummy chilly. Once home He started cooking and I got to scrubbing the bathroom. Tons of fun for a Sunday morning :-P After cleaning and showering I started to get hungry around 12:30ish and made a bowl of Trader Joe's Greek Yogurt with strawberries and blueberries. I also mixed in some Golden Grahams for some CRUNCH! MMMM I also had a big ol' handful of grapes.

I decided to get my butt in gear and print out the labels finally for the save the dates. It took awhile to get the right size font but I finally got it! I then went to the parents house to do laundry, while there I also made some cookies. (forgot my camera since it was charging at home) I made double chocolate chunk and Oatmeal chocolate chip (both by Better Crocker in the pouch)I did try some cookie dough and it was YUMMY! Even though my tummy is way funny lately and this was not a good idea. Mom and I did some bonding over wedding stuff and once my laundry was finally done I came home to Adam watching the Daytona 500. I tried a tiny bowl of his chili that he made with chopped meat and pork tenderloin and it was really good!!! I'm not a huge chili fan but I really enjoyed it alot! I also had a salad to go with it. It had some roasted red pepper hummus, roasted red/yellow peppers, green pepper, cucs, lettuces, croutons and some balsamic vinegar for dressing. This totally hit the spot, I then was cutting up the rice krispie treats that I had made to give some to Joe and ate a small piece (no pic it was shoved in my face faster than you could imagine)hahah

Joe and I had a date to go bowling down the street since they have 1.75 games Sunday night from 7-9. Unfortunately the place was crazy packed and the wait would be forever so we left. I was so disappointed :( Instead I came home and had a piece of Daddy's chocolates the Grand Marnier one. SO FREAKING GOOD!!! I also had a few peanut mm's on the side. Chocolate cravings are out of control since we have tons in the house.. GET IT AWAY!!!!!!! hahah I'm now off to watch some rich bride poor bride.. See you all tomorrow! I've got one more day off!!! :-D

Yummy Dinner and "Date" Night

So Once Adam awoke from his slumber and got ready this afternoon we ran out to do some errands. We got some beer for our Ghetto Vday tomorrow, tons of stamps for our save the dates and my yummy veggie chicken salad sammy from the health food store. When we got back I got started on figuring out the label program on the computer and then it was time for dinner. I had my sandwich with a pickle and some Stacy's Pita chips on the side. DELISH!! The sammy only has 200 calories but boy does it fill you up! After dinner we set out for target and Barnes and Nobles. I picked up some Amy's veggie burgers since they are cheaper at Target. I LOVE THAT PLACE!! We then went to B&N and as I was going into the bathroom there was a crisis going on.. from what I overheard a boy was there with 2 friends and od'd on some pills.. he must of left because the friends were there with some workers and the boys mom.. SO SCARY!! It makes me so scared to have kids these days.. :-( onto the fun part.. I got a IBC Diet Rootbeer (I just was not in the mood for coffee) I read some good old trashy mags and might have had a bite of Adam's pb cup cookie and a sip of his mocha frap.. so so good ;) When we got home I was craving some chocolate so I had 4 peanut mms. I'm now off to read some blogs while Adam watches the Daytona truck race...

Question: Does anyone have any fun/exciting plans for Vday tomorrow?

I'm going to my brother's state bowling tournament up in Northern Jersey then going to Menlo park mall for some browsing. At night we are getting some pizza and playing wii (super mario brothers) and I'll be having a Blue Moon or 2! We thought we'd go old school it reminds us of our childhood.. well except for the beer... hahah

MMM Bison Steak

Well dinner turned out very yummy thanks to Adam! We had Bison steaks and I had a sweet potato with Newman's Own Mango Salsa. I also had some sauteed peppers and onions on the side. I also had a small glass of Pinot Grigio with din din :) We went out to the dumpster to toss a ton of garbage out and it is still warm! I love it, the rest of the week is supposed to be warm also :-D

Dessert was a chocolate from the box of chocolate I got from one of my kiddies on Friday for VDAY! I had a Almond Cream and boy was it AWESOME! I'm now watching Bridezillas before its bedtime. I hope everyone had a great Sunday and that the upcoming work week goes well. See ya'll tomorrow!

Where's All The Snow?!?!?!

Hey there!

Well Daddy is back home! No clue what the deal is :( but at least he is home! I didn't sleep well last night at all I couldn't fall asleep until well after 12 then woke up around 6ish. UGH I got up around 7:30 and made some coffee. I put some cocoa powder with stevia and skim milk in it and boy was it tasty! We went to the dinner near our house last night since I was in no mood for cooking. I got a veggie omelet with egg whites, home fries and ww toast. It was huge so I brought a ton of it home and ate the leftover omelet for breakie this morning with some fruit on the side. Adam had the home fries but of course I stole a few ;) mmm

I was in cleaning mode so I vacuumed and dusted and backed Adam a chocolate chip quick bread for this weeks breakfast, I threw away the box and can't remember who it was made by. But let me tell you it was TASTY!! If I figure it out I will let ya know :-D

I ate way too much batter and then was off to the gym, I did about 35 minutes and some weights. I then went to my parents to see daddy and do my laundry. I may or may not have eaten my body weight in cookies there.. OOPPS! haha

Once home I unloaded the laundry and showered then had a pear with cottage cheese since I was still full from the cookie fest! I sat around and watched The Real Housewives of Atlanta and paid some bills. Adam and I then went to Wegman's to get a Pork tenderloin that he cooked up tonight to try out.

Since I was feeling yucky from my sugar overload I just had a cup of Pacific Brand Roasted Red Pepper and Tomato soup with some Wheatables. Adam's dinner took awhile and I was hungry so I chowed down while he cooked.(Gotta love the classy plastic top I threw the crackers on!! :-p) Once his was done I tried a few bites, and boy was it good! I even ate a few more bites of the pork and veggies. He wanted me to take a picture, but I was too lazy to get up and get the camera.. hahah I then made myself a dirty martini and ate a few olives. It was too dirty for me and after about 5 sips I gave it to Adam. I then had a 2 chocolate covered peanuts and a mini dark milkway. YUM! More sugary goodness... Now I feel like CRAP!!!!!!!!!! I think I may make a cup of gingerbread tea, since I finally foud the Celestial Seasonings Seasonals tea at Stop and Shop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I also picked up the Sugar Cookie one and I can't wait to try it :)

I hope you all have a great night! Tomorrow we are off to get our passports and go to the travel agent at the mall to get started on the HONEYMOON! WOOHOO!

See you tomorrow!

Good Day Goes Bad!

Hi All

So today started off on a good foot! I slept well with the help of some Tylenol pm ( I had a headache that would not go away last night!) I woke up at 8:30 and decided to skip the gym today since I had gone everyday since last Sunday :) I had some cereal (the usual mix) and coffee and vacuumed. I showered and was off to my parents to do some laundry and hang out. I came home around one after a little snacking on grapes and a piece of dad's famous candies. I unpacked the laundry and made up some Chobani Vanilla with frozen berries and Back To Nature Blueberry Apple Granola. YUM!!! I also may or may not have had another chocolate ;) I was then off for my massage... It was AWESOME and much needed, now if they weren't 70 bux I would get them more often!!!

Here's where it goes bad :(

I came home and was thinking I hadn't had not gotten a bill for my car insurance so I find an old bill and call... To find out it was cancelled!!!!!!!!!!!!!WTF?!?!?! Then I realized it would have been due the end of November! I have been mailing it in since I moved marking the moved box for my change of address.. and they never changed it.. Well I never got my bill and that means no driving my car for me :( I'm very very angry now! So much for my relaxation! UGH!! Needless to say since I'm a spaz I've been crying and complaining. Adam thinks I'm nuts and told me not to worry.. but I'm so good with paying bills and all of that.. I'm always super early.. so it just gets me upset. Even though it wasn't my fault. I'm now sitting around being cranky.. Maybe I'll bake alittle.. I do know that we will be going out to look at Christmas lights tonight!! I think I'll stop at 7-11 and pick up a coffee.. That should make me happy :-D Hope your having a great Saturday!

See ya after dinner!

Sorry For Begin MIA!

Hey everyone!

Sorry for disappearing for a few days.. I have been go go go and haven't stopped! You haven't really missed much in my eating, except for last nights yummy lobster ravioli in vodka sauce that I had at my work Christmas party ;) But lets get onto today!

After last nights pig out fest with extremely yummy foods and eating way later than normal :( my belly was not happy with me! I felt like I had a huge rock in my stomach! WTF? I had my normal bowl of cereal (Fiber One Honey Oats, banana, cinnamon and lf vanilla soy milk) with a coffee that I brought to work. The Kindergartners did a play today and it was so cute! I got to watch it in the AM and PM, since there is an AM and PM class. :-D

Lunch was a Dannon Light and Fit with a half of apple and half an orange. I also had a handful of pretzels for something salty. A mom brought us in brownies so I had a bite of one, it wasn't great so I chucked it. I had 2 handfuls of grapes before leaving work and going to the gym in the monsoon that we were having. I think I saw cats and dogs falling from the sky!!!!!

I came home with about 5 pounds of fudge from one of my kiddies. I had to try a bite it is peanut butter fudge and its great. I cut a small piece for Adam and I and then I'm gonna see if my brother wants it!

I was going to have leftover chicken from a few nights ago, but my sweet potato was bad so I had nothing in the house really to go with it :( I opted for a Amy's burger with a slice of American cheese on top, some Brother's All Natural Potato Chips and a pickle. I was still feeling so full and gross :( I think I just need some down time to relax from this insane week! I can"t wait to be off for eleven days! We went to Barnes and Nobles for our "date night" and I had a diet root beer and 2 bites of Adam's peanut butter cup cookie.. MMMM I just can't turn down something sweet! We came home and now I'm trying to just veg. Oh and I got my free Cow Girl chocolate from Foodbuzz and I tried the mild double chocolate and it was awesome! Here's the website if you want to check it out! They have spicy and mild flavors, I can't wait to try them all :) http://www.cowgirlchocolates.com/

I hope everyone had a great Friday only 5 more days till Christmas!!! Do you have all your shopping done? I just have a few more things to pick up! See you tomorrow.

I Think I Need To Move Somewhere Warm!

Hello All!
This morning I had a nightmare :( I woke up around 4:30 and couldn't fall back to sleep for about 2 hours. GRRR! I can't remember what it was about but all I know is that I'm exhausted now. Breakfast was a bowl of oats with banana, light vanilla 8th continent and some free bear naked granola that I got in the mail. I also brought a mug of coffee with me on this FREEZING day!
My belly hasn't been feeling so good but I was starving for lunch so I had my yogurt and an apple. It was yummy but sat like a rock in my stomach, at snack time I really wanted something even though I know it would make me feel worse. I caved though and had 3 animals crackers with my kiddies. Right after work I went to my parents house to pick up my dad to go to the bowling alley for my brothers game. He did pretty well, he averaged a 197 for 3 games! I saw one of my old teachers and talked to him for a bit.
Once home and starving around 6 I had a Arnold's sandwich bread with almond butter and jelly, I also had a few pretzels and some of the huge sweet potato on the side with ketchup. MMM This hit the spot, For dessert after showering and cutting up a pineapple (which I of course had a few pieces of just to make sure it was sweet) I had a midnight milky way for alittle something something ;) My belly is still very angry with me, I'm hoping it feels better soon because I feel pretty darn S***Y!!!! UGH

GRRR BLOGGER ISN'T LETTING ME UPLOAD MY PICTURES! BUT THERE WERE NO EXCITING EATS TODAY ;)
HAVE A GREAT NIGHT! SEE YOU TOMORROW!

Extremely Full

We had a fun dinner tonight for Adam's uncle's birthday we went to the http://thehickoryhog.com. It was very good but we got TONS of food! For some appetizers we got the fried onion loaf, corn fritters and Adam got a bowl of chili. I had 2 onion rings, 1/2 of the tiny fritters and a spoon of chili. The chili was very good, it made me excited for the cold weather. I also had about 2 ounces of a Reisling from New Hope Winery, I think this is my favorite white wine so far. For dinner I got the Boneless Chicken Breast with BBQ sauce, my 2 sides were sweet potato fries and hot cinnamon apples, it also came with cornbread. I had about 3/4 of a piece of chicken, I got 3 HUGE pieces! I ate some of the fries and most of the apples and a bite of the cornbread, I also tried one of Adam's Memphis Cajun Dry Rub Rib (these were quite yummy too!) I was so full after all this! We went for a short walk on the boardwalk and ofcourse when I got back my sweet tooth kicked in! I had a hand full of hershey's chocolate chips and boy did they hit the spot. I'm now off to cut out letters for my bulletin board and make some cd's for my kiddies to dance to :)
Hope everyone had a great weekend!
