Hello All! Sorry I’ve been MIA all day. It’s been one crazy day! I started with a 4-mile run. It was so foggy out this morning that by the time I got home my hair and face were drenched as if it was raining!
I was really behind schedule after my run, so I had a breakfast on-the-go, which I hardly ever do. Luckily, some smart person out there was thinking of me and all the other over-booked women out there and invented a portable and healthy breakfast in a bar!
I had another one of my LUNA bars – this time chocolate raspberry. This bar had a great flavor but it was probably a little too much powerbar for me for breakfast. I really prefer it as a pre-run snack.
I was really dragging on my way to work, so I stopped off at Starbucks. No, my old Starbucks did not reopen. I stopped at one of those mini Starbucks inside a grocery store. I was really debating on getting a skinny vanilla latte and a mocha frap….guess what I went with –
Hmmm..sooo goood! I drank some of it right when I arrived at work, but then I had to run to a meeting at 9 AM. I usually don’t take anything but water into meetings, but I ended up being in back-t0-back meetings from 9 AM – 12:30 PM!! Oh my gosh – how do they expect me to get any work done? On a break, I ran back over to my desk and grabbed my mostly melted frap and took it back into the meeting. I’m really glad I did because it kept me alert through all of the meetings.
After the meetings, I ate some leftover stir-fry because I didn’t have time to get out for lunch…
The stir fry was good but I could have eaten a LOT more than what I brought.
Oddly enough, by the time I got home from work, I wasn’t really that hungry. Scott was at class again tonight so I just threw together a very quick and simple dinner…
A 1/2 peanut butter and jelly sandwich, with a side of Cape Cod chips and a nectarine – healthy and satisfying…

I probably could have whipped together something a little more exciting if I had more energy. But at least I’ve graduated from cereal!
Ok, time to say goodnight Gracie!
I usually don’t like Luna bars but that would looks delish!
Sorry about the long meetings, I hate those.
yumm looks that meal looks simple, perfect and satisfying! and thank goodness for that mocha frap! now i’m craving one–i may just have to make a starbucks stop soon…i wonder if they could make a pumpkin spice frap?? 🙂 have a wonderful day!
