Because this is a FOOD BLOG after all! :)
Saturday: I met Lynn to run some errands and enjoy a morning treat at Two If By Sea Cafe...
Gianormous buttery pain au chocolate accompanied by cafe au lait.
It might be a good thing I am moving away from those deeeeelicious croissants.
It was gloriously warm and sunny day, so after Lynn left I took a car full of donations to Value Village, hit up Future Shop for a GPS and an iPod car adaptor, then came home to lounge on the deck with my lunch.
Iced coffee and leftover Chicken & Brie panini...
The late afternoon included cleaning and organizing the house in a last ditch effort to not feel chlostrophobic while the packing ensues.
Dinner was a fresh Summery meal of corn on the cob paired with a salad. Spinach, tomatoes, beets, chick peas, goat cheese and Fig Balsamic dressing...
I had a hankering for Coldstone ice cream but managed to stave it off with a dish of vanilla yogurt, blueberries and granola.
However, the Cheetos did make an appearance... :)
Sunday: A bit of a late start so I decided to make brunch instead of breakfast. Scrambled egg whites with Greek seasoning, yellow pepper, fresh spinach, chopped tomatoes....
Served on top of a toasted sandwich thin and sprinkled with light feta...
Most of the day was spent sifting through my closet making sure I have enough work appropriate outfits for that convention I'm attending at the end of my road trip and sorting paperwork for my move, etc.
I snacked on a Kashi bar before heading outside to mow the lawn, tackle the weed jungle in our little garden.
I WILL NOT miss mowing our uneven, bumpy yard. Although...I do like yard work and it is a great workout.
After working up a sweat and a sense of accomplishment it was time for a shower and dinner. Simple supper of leftover corn on the cob (grilled this time) with beef & veggie kabobs doused with Guinness Bulls Eye...
Served up with lemonade as a refreshing treat...
The evening included chats and treats with girlfriends while we watched the premiere of True Blood Season 3. Popcorn and chocolates and candies, oh my! :) So glad to have Sookie, Eric and all the bad things back for the Summer. Not that I'm going to have cable after next Saturday....but still!
Your Pain Au Chocolate almost has md running out to find one. Looks so good! Same with your egg whites. Tasty tasty tasty :-)
ReplyDelete.... and where do you get Cheetos in a can?? That would be so cool.
ReplyDelete;o))

ReplyDeleteMom...Walmart. :)
I haven't watched "True Blood" yet! Waiting for hubby to come home! Eeek!!
ReplyDeleteI am so glad that there isn't a Coldstone in our area... I would not be able to resist.
ReplyDeleteI love when a barista does a heart in my latte froth, it makes me feel special.
ReplyDeleteYour salad with spinach, tomatoes, beets, chick peas, goat cheese and Fig Balsamic dressing looks divine. I'm going to make a spinach salad soon now!
Yay True Blood! (and Eric's bootay).
ReplyDeleteI have been looking at the exact same GPS... I saw it was on sale this week :)
