WIAW #20

Hey All!  Hope everyone is having a good week digging out of all that snow out there.  If you live somewhere warm and you don’t have any snow and the sun is shining, I don’t want to hear about it.  The beauty of the snow has passed and the brown snowbanks and slush-covered roads have moved in. I’m over it.  NEXT SEASON PLEASE!

Looks like it’s Wednesday again!  Jenn is hosting “Love Your Veggies Month” over at Peas & Crayons, go check it out.

I certainly love my veggies although I have to admit I probably didn’t get all of my servings in today.  I was in an all-day photo shoot so I wasn’t spending much time thinking about food.  I did however eat a lot of fruit today.  You won’t see any pictures here but it was a cocktail photo shoot so as I was cutting fruit to style the cocktails, I had to do a little snacking.  The tastiness of the fruit has direct correlation to how it will look in the photo so you MUST TASTE all the fruit!  At least that’s what I tell myself.

Ok, let’s get on with this.

breakfast

For breakfast I had some strawberry almond overnight oats.  Made with greek yogurt, almond milk, chia seeds, rolled oats, almond extract, sliced strawberries & sliced almonds. Delicious!

lunch

For lunch we did Korean so I got one of my absolute FAVS! Bibimbop, or however they choose to spell it.  I don’t have the energy to go google that right now so deal with it.  I crave very little foods but strangely enough, bibimbop is one that I crave.  Yummy meat & vegetables topped with an egg, how can you go wrong?

dinner

I got home late so I threw together a quick dinner.  Sweet potato topped with some leftover taco veggies, salsa & guacamole.

Thanks again Jenn for hosting!!

 

WHAT MAKES ME HAPPY:

The new Boston radio station 96.9.

radio

Thanks Alex for letting me know about this one!  It made my hour and 45 minute drive this morning bearable (especially since it should have only taken 30 minutes).  The station plays all sorts of throwbacks, new hits & tons of songs that I used to listen to college.  I jammed out to Ashanti, Puff Daddy & Ja Rule on the way home, lovin it!!

    The korean lunch looks to die for! I love korean food and especially bibimbop, but where is the rice? And where is the stone pot it usually comes in?

      It really was to die for! It was take-out so I guess they didn’t want to part with one of their sweet bowls :( The rice was packed separately, I didn’t eat much since I have my weigh-in for our challenge tomorrow :)

    Oh! That radio station sounds totally awesome! And I use the Tune In app on my phone, so I can play radio from anywhere in the world. I’m totally using that for my next workout. :P

    I love throwback radio stations. On my 2 hour rides home from school I just flip through every single channel until I hear a song I like. This continues for the entire drive :) Mostly I’m on country though.
