Hiya

Well I had another busy one today! Those kids are amped up I think the Halloween candy is seeping into their veins even though they haven't gotten it yet!

For breakfast this morning it was the usual wegmans oats and honey with strawberries cereal, fiber one, banana, cinnamon and skim milk. I also brought m travel mug of coffee with me :)

Lunch was a HUGE apple with cottage cheese and 2 chocolate chip cookies. MMM!

I walked home after work and had some walnuts before the gym. I did about 2 miles on the treadmill and some weights and came home.

I had leftver salmon and veggies with a few fries for dinner (I ate some of the salmon before I took the picture.. I was hungry), I also had a few bites of some vcon baked beans that I made a LONG TIME AGO that we defrosted. They were still awesome! (Adam had them with his dinner) We then were off to Old Navy where I got a Halloween shirt and a new sweater :-D We then went to Barnes and Nobles for our "Date" night, I had a diet rootbeer and a few bites of Adam's Peanutbutter cup cookie. We read some magazines and ended up buying the new Weird New Jersey. I love these magazines, its so much fun since I know where alot of the places are in it. It was then off to Walmart to pick up a few things and now we are home relaxing and watching tv. I had some of my apple crumble because I needed something sweet. (ok I really just wanted it!!) I'm hoping it doesn't rain tomorrow because my brother has a football game at 2 and Adam and are planned to go for a nice walk in the am.. but we will see.. If not I'll be going to the gym and doing laundry, and maybe some cleaning around the apt.

I hope everyone had a great Friday! See you tomorrow morning :-D
I'm having trouble uploading the pictures.. so I'll just leave you with my ramblings :-P

MMM BIRTHDAY CAKE

Hola Everyone!

Another day flew by today! To start out I woke up with my alarm clock which made me happy, since that means I finally slept! Breakfast was Wegmans Oats and honey with strawberries cereal, some Fiber One, cinnamon, banana and Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze. I brought my travel mug of hot chocolate with me for the COLD walk to work.

Lunch was the usual yogurt and apple, BUT it was my bosses birthday so I had to have some cake from my favorite bakery in town! I grew up with the woman who owns it son so we always had cake from her before she opened up the bakery. YUM YUM! It was chocolate cake with vanilla frosting, my favorite!

I rushed home after work had some grapes and peanuts and left for the gym. I did alittle over 2 miles while watching Oprah. I did a higher incline than normal so I was walking a bit slower. Trying to tighten the tush ;) hahah

Dinner was my leftover buffalo burger with some laughing cow cheese spread on top, some pickles, and some leftover fries from when we made our own.

It was a lazy kinda night (Adam isn't feeling well) so since I'm always wanting to do something I decided to bake some banana bread from Vcon. I love this recipe and it came out GREAT! My taster just tried some, and he gave it 2 thumbs up! I of course had to try some too, I can not ignore fresh baked goods! I am now going to zone out in front of the computer while Adam watches Survivor, I figure its a good time to catch up on blogs! Have a great night, when we wake up it will be FRIDAY!!!! WOOOHOOO

Another Fun Filled Day of Crazy!

Hi all!

Hope you all had a quick day like I did! These days are flying by! I didn't sleep well last night and was up an hour before my alarm :( I finally got out of bed around 7:15 and started my day. I had my bowl of Wegmans Cereal, Oats & Honey, With Strawberries. I also added in some Fiber One and of course a banana, cinnamon and unsweetened vanilla almond breeze. I brought my travel mug of coffee with me too.

Lunch was alittle disappointing, we got an antipasto from a pizza/wrap place. It was great last time but this time it was very oily, I should've stopped eating it but was too busy talking to another teacher to want to stop and get up to get my yogurt out of the fridge. I also had an apple with my oily greens, cheese, and olives. I walked home before eating lunch just to get out and move since I drove to work today. At snacktime I had a chocolate chip cookie, I can't wait for these to be out of the school. They are the DEVIL!!!

I then was off to the gym after work, I did about 2.10 miles on the treadmill and some weights and came home since we were taking Adam's mom out to dinner. I came home showered and got ready to go. I snacked on a few nuts before leaving because I was starving...

We went to a place in Brielle called Simkos, I got the blacked salmon, fries and veggies it also came with a salad, which I had with honey mustard dressing. I also had a Blue Moon with dinner. I was so bad today and didn't take pictures of anything except breakfast!! BAD BLOGGER!! I'm so full now and feeling yucky! I know its a mixture of hormones and just eating too much. Atleast tomorrow is another day! Hope ya'll had a good one!

Being The Good Big Sister For The Day!

Hi everyone! hope you Sunday is going great :)

Last night dinner was great but by the time I got home and we went for a little walk to work off the prime rib, Grands biscuits, green beans, whipped sweet pototoes, wine and cupcakes I set up my new printer took a tylenol pm and passed out! lol

This morning I woke up around 8 got ready and had a bowl of Kashi Go Lean Crunch with some Fiber One, a banana, cinnamon and almond chocolate milk. I also had a cup of coffee with splenda and skim milk. I was then off to pick my brother up and go to Caldwell College. It was so nice going up there! Its changed so much since I went there, I graduated in 2003 but went back to get my teaching certificate so I technically finished in Dec 2004 but I was commuting then one day a week. He really seems to want to go there which makes me happy!! Since we were done by 12 we walked around campus ( I was his tour guide.. lol) We decided to come home for lunch. We went to the diner by our house and I got a buffalo burger with fries. (I was all set to take the picture with my phone but once it came I was so hungry it was 2 oclock by now that I forgot) OOPPSSS!! I ate half of it with the side of coleslaw and a pickle. I was so full but I had enough room to have 2 bites of Joe's chocolate cheesecake. Darn those diners.. they always have such good desserts! I am now home relaxing and getting ready to bring our 2nd deposit for our reception site! I have a feeling after my burger so late in the day it is going to be a light dinner, maybe some greek yogurt and fruit. My body is not used to all of this meat in it! I have a feeling my stomach is going to be very angry with me... Lets hope not!

See you tonight for dinner!

I'll leave you with a few pictures of the college.. Gosh it is such a beautiful campus!

TGIF!

WOOHOO Its Friday!

I had trouble sleeping last night and could not fall asleep! I then woke up around 5:30 after not nodding off until 12 or later! WTF?!?! I got up around 7:15 and got a few things done around the apartment. I then had some breakfast of Kashi Go Lean Crunch with some Fiber One a banana, cinnamon and a mix of Unsweetened Chocolate Almond Breeze and some skim milk since its expiring soon. I also brought a mug of hot chocolate with me for my day with the kiddies, it really hit the spot after my chilly walk to work!

On my lunch break I walked home since it was beautiful out, I did the dishes in the sink and walked back so I could have a few minutes to eat my lunch. Lunch was a Yoplait yogurt and an apple, I also had a few goldfish for alittle something something ;) I then walked home after work and got ready for the gym, I did about 1.75 miles (my allergies are killing me = breathing is not easy) I also did some weights for my arms and back. I had a snack of a handful of nuts before I left since I was feeling munchie ;)

Dinner ended up being sweet potato fries, pickles and one of my leftover maple turkey burgers with some laughing cow garlic herb cheese. This totally hit the spot but I am uber full!!!!!!!! Adam wanted to get some blog time so he took a picture of his turkey hotdogs in Campbells baked beans with his french fries and pickles. Adam and I took a stroll around the apt complex to take out the garbage to let the food settle a bit. I am now psyching myself up for my shower and to get ready since my friend is coming over around 8:30 so we can go see her b/fs band at The Saint in Asbury Park. HMM should be interesting.. We don't plan on staying there too long and might hit up the Headliner for some $1 Miller Lites after they are done. We'll see what happens!

I hope everyone had a wonderful Friday! See you tomorrow morning!

Thank Goodness for Fridays!!

HELLO to the weekend :-D

Lets recap another fun filled day, I woke up and had some breakfast and mixed it up alittle! I had half of a ww English muffin and a piece of the end of some bread with whipped cottage cheese and jelly. It really hit the spot, something fun and different for a week day breakfast. I of course brought my mug of coffee to work on this rainy day since I knew I'd need it! I only had 6 kiddies today so it was very nice and calm. I really couldn't complain at all :)

Lunch was the usual Dannon Light and Fit and the end of my pineapple! I plan on going and buying another next week don't you worry!! hahah

Then I was off to the gym after work, I did about 35 minutes on the treadmill and came home to make some dinner with Adam. We had http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/sandra-lee/apple-maple-turkey-burgers-with-maple-dijon-sauce-recipe/index.html we've made them once before and they are GREAT! We leave out the bacon bits since I didn't have any but they are really awesome! We also made some more homemade french fries, and I had a Blue Moon with an orange in it. It was the perfect dinner for a rainy Friday night :) OH while making everything I snacked on some grapes and a few peanuts too.

We tried to go to the beach for a walk but it was kinda yucky and since Adam has glasses and it was misting out, he was kinda blind!

We ran out to buy some Honey Nut Cheerios because I wanted to make these http://www.eatbetteramerica.com/recipes/featured-brands/banana-oat-muffins.aspx for Adam. Since he is now living here I can control what he eats alittle better ;) Gotta keep him around as long as I can :-P There was alot of batter tasting here.. Maybe a tad too much because now I have a tummyache! UGH!

I'm now off to read some blogs while Adam watches the debates, I hope everyone had a great Friday! See you tomorrow for breakfast.

Wedding Registering Fun!

So glad that we finally set a date and picked a place!!!!! I did have my Blue Moon with an orange slice and it hit the spot. I waited for Adam to finally get his butt here to start making dinner. We cut up a Yukon Gold potato for french fries, we sprayed some garlic olive oil spray on them and sprinkled with fresh ground sea salt. While out today we picked up alittle over a pound of lean ground turkey, and added that awesome sloppy joe from New Hope. I had a half of a whole wheat english muffin piled high with turkey sloppy joes and a bunch of fries.It was an awesome dinner and after I was done with what was on my plate I had a few more fries and 2 more forkfuls of the sloppy joe while putting away the leftovers ;) We then walked over to my mom's house to pick up the stuff on the Breakers since we gave it to them to look at. We have already picked out all the food for the wedding! I'm so excited! We are now looking at registry stuff, gotta love being able to pick out your own gifts!Oh and I forgot that I had one of my cookies that I made yesterday. I hope everyone had a great weekend! see you tomorrow for a recap :-D

THANK GOODNESS ITS FRIDAY!!!!!!!

OK here's another recap of my fun filled day! On this beautiful fallish feeling Jersey morning I had a bowl of Special K Vanilla Almond cereal with banana, cinnamon and LF soymilk. I also brought a nice cup of coffee with me to work :)
It was a nice light day today, only 8 kids!! I couldn't ask for an easier Friday, lunch came so quick and I wasn't even hungry but figured I should eat and not wait just in case I didn't get down time later on. I had a Wegmans berry yogurt with pineapple and a couple pieces of a leftover pear. I also had a few animal crackers for some crunch :-) I was then off to the gym for a 2 mile walk and some upper body weight lifting. I had no desire to be there at all, I just wanted to go home and be a lump!! lol
I then came home and munched on some peanuts while cleaning up the sink and waiting for Adam to come over.
For dinner I had a small salad with romaine, peppers, carrots and red onions and a few croutons with Newman's Own Asian Sesame dressing. We made homemade french fries, sweet potato and regular ones. I also had left over veggie loaf that we defrosted from a month ago. I really need to clean out my freezer, Its packed solid. We then tried to go for a walk on the boardwalk but IT WAS WINDY AND COLD!! I was walking like I had a rocket up my ass according to my wonderful fiance :-p I dropped off the cookies for the cheerleaders at my parents then ran some errands at Cost Cutters and A&P. My mom called me around 7 to tell me the cheerleaders were already there decorating the house and that they enjoyed my cookies :-D While at A&P I had a craving for ice cream so I got some weight watchers chocolate chip mint ice cream singles. I put about half of one in cake cone with light chocolate syrup and some whipped cream. SO SO GOOD! What a perfect way to end the week :) We are off to relax since I'll be up early to walk to the parents and do laundry before Joe's football game, I love football season :)
I hope everyone had a great Friday! see you tomorrow!

Blogger is being silly and not letting me upload my pictures! I even took ones of every meal today! of course that would happen right?!?!? hahah oh well
