Lunch: Spinach Salad with Sole, Turkey Breast, and Sweet Potato  Sorry for the shadow-y and sloppy photo. I made this in under 5 minutes before I had to rush out for my shift at work.

Dinner: Spicy Cauliflower Protein Stir Fry, Romaine Salad I swear I just pick out individual ingredients I want to eat, toss them on a plate, and call it a meal. But hey, whatever works right? Not going to run today because I’m seriously worn out. I’m not a runner, never have been, hopefully might be a passable one some day. I planned on doing yoga today, but I couldn’t fit it in any where during the day. I’m headed for the movies in 10 minutes! I got my Personality Psychology grade back today and did wayyy better than I thought I did. So to celebrate, the Boy and I are going to watch The Dictator and I’m going to treat myself to something chocolate-y but small. Might do yoga when I get back if I’m not too tired.

gingerhaze: I’m going to make my own reboot of Sherlock Holmes: SHERHAWK HOLMES AND HULKSON: HULK SMASH PUNY CLUE. They would just wander around and get confused at things and smash/blow stuff up, unless the clue is a door, and Hawkeye will have a brilliant revelation about doors opening from both sides. Black Widow will be Lestrade and she’ll just go ahead and solve the mystery for them and then make them think they did they did it so that they feel proud of themselves. This is slowly becoming one of those sites that I obsessively check every 5 minutes/that will eventually hinder my studies..

Finding these just made my night: grocery store brand popchips! I love popchips, but they are pretty pricy for a little bag. I haven’t tried these yet so I don’t know how they compare, but I’m excited! (Am I the only who gets excited trying out new finds from the store?)

Dessert: Mixed Berries Almond Ice “Milk”  Does anyone remember that elementary/middle school science experiment where you make ice cream in bags with ice and table salt?? WELL I JUST MADE SUPER HEALTHY ICE CREAM :D Please excuse the caps, but I’ve been craving sweets all day long and this felt great. I also get annoyed whenever we go to the supermarket because I can never find “healthy” ice cream. Mixed Berries Almond Ice Milk 1/2 cup frozen berries1 cup almond milk (or any milk - almond wasn’t really creamy enough)choice of sweetener to tastetray of ice cubes3 Tbsp table salt Put the berries and almond milk in a small ziploc bag. Fill a large ziploc bag with ice and salt. Place the smaller bag inside the large one and shakeshakeshake for 5-10 minutes, or until the contents of the small bag have the consistency of ice cream. Serves 1 at 70 cals/serving. I would use a creamier substance than almond milk next time because it came out tasting just a little bit too much like water.. maybe yogurt? If I finish my math problems tonight I’ll make it again with yogurt.

WOD

- 2 mile run (9:42, 10:12)

Definitely felt my muscles today.. I guess I should’ve taken a rest day but every time I do, I kind of just end up taking a week’s worth of rest days.

Laying on the couch right now because the breeze feels good blowing in from the window. I have math problems to do but I just don’t want to do them right now..

Dinner, Part 1: Spicy Seared Tofu, Romaine and Spinach Salad I just realized that every time I say “salad” in my mind I automatically hear “salade” (French) from hearing it so much at restaurants. This happens with a bunch of other words too.. time to get out of Montreal? Maybe. I was running a bunch of errands today and hadn’t realized that I skipped lunch! So I was running low already when I headed to the gym, came home, remembered there was no food left, went grocery shopping quickly, made food, then scarfed it down. But the salad(e) made me sooooo happy!

Brunch: Avocado-Egg Salad in Whole Wheat Pita, Green Apple with Almond Butter  I think it’s time for me to admit that it’s futile to keep trying to wake up for 8:30 lectures. If I do make it, I come home after class and nap for the afternoon. And the instructor for that course is extremely irritating - his “umm” word is “look”, so it’s always: “look, look, look! And look I grab this here, and look! I put it here.. look!”. It’s all I can do to start throwing things at him (I’m quite the cranky kid in the mornings). So I decided to sleep in a bit and make myself a nice breakfast. The course material comes straight out of the text book (it is math, after all) so I just teach myself and do the problems. If not, I’ll ask the Boy to teach me.. Avocado Egg Salad 1/3 avocado, mashed1 egg, egg yolk mashed and egg white chopped1 Tbsp plain yogurta squeeze of lemon/lime juicebit of mustard (if you wish)salt and pepper to taste Mix theavocado with egg yolk and mash together until blended. Add yogurt, lemon/lime juice, and mustard - mix well. Incorporate the egg whites. Season with salt and pepper to taste and serve. Serves 1.
