Hello, Winter?
I think it’s coming..even for a brief moment. This year, “cold fronts” seem to come and go within two days. What. Is. The. Deal? 
At least tomorrow will feel like Winter, and maybe Friday..Friday actually should feel like Fall..so yay!
Today was stressful again, I feel like the closer I get to being done the longer the days feel. In a week I will have mostly given the class back to the teacher..so YAY!
Graduation: T-Minus 38 days and counting!
Did you know that you can actually watch my graduation live on the internet? Not kidding. Not that you would want to. But it’s happening. It makes me laugh a little..
For breakfast I made a not-so-green-more-swampy monster:
- Spinach
- Stonyfield Strawberry yogurt
- Amazing Grass
- Mango
- Blueberries
- Strawberries
- Cranberry juice
- Almond milk
I really need a VitaMix, I am slowly killing my magic bullet with these smoothies and I would love to put more spinach into my smoothies.
Also burnt one half of my sandwich thins and we’re almost out. So I managed. 3/4 of the burnt one had smart balance, the other half had almond butter and honey.
For my (unpictured) lunch I brought some leftovers from last night..some of these leftovers:
Yummmm! I took one of my smallest tupperware containers and forgot to pack much more. I also snacked on a baggie of organic baby carrots. Since I was still a bit hungry I dove into this:
Yummm! This was my first time eating this, I LOVE the texture of the chewy and the crunchy. Perfect mix. I finally felt full and satisfied!
When I got home I showered and got ready for tonight. After that I needed major fuel, my stomach was reminding me so..
Enter: Cereal.
H2H and Puffins..such a yummy mix! I looooooove me some cereal. Sometimes that’s all I need to smile. I know, I am easily amused.
To celebrate the cold front coming tomorrow(high of upper 60′s) I had one of these babies:
Pumpkin spice Hershey Kiss! Yummm!
Some exciting news, I found out Adam is taking me to New Smyrna Beach for the weekend of the 20th, the weekend before Thanksgiving break! I am really excited to just get away! I will still be blogging, but we will be cooking up a storm I hope. He’s promised to work with me on some recipes and we’ll have two days to just get away. Much needed, and it starts my week off from school and I will be done teaching in my internship at that point!
The next few weeks are SO exciting. Just thinking about it gives me those excited butterflies in my stomach. I have a direction I am heading in that’s completely different then what I thought but it makes me so happy and just feels SO right. I know God has a total hand in this and I am just hoping/trusting that I will continue being led, because right now it’s a huge jumbled mess of dreams that have to get sorted and figured out. One day at a time! After I graduate I will elaborate more, but as I am still finishing up school in my internship I won’t talk much about it yet!
Well, on that note it’s off to our Wednesday night group. Sorry for the lame post tonight, Wednesdays are rough! I promise the posts will be much more exciting once internship is done and my schedule is freed up. Looking forward to writing about some topics that interest me as soon as I get some more time in my life!
Have a great night!

Winner winner veggie-pasta dinner!
Before I announce the winner, I’m going to talk about the second half of my day. I know torture right? At least this is a blog and not “The Biggest Loser”..you can just scroll down to find out the winner 
.
For my pre-cleaning fuel:
Smooothie time!
- One banana
- Flax
- Amazing Grass
- Strawberries, Mango, blue berries
- Quarter cup of Chobani 0% plain greek yogurt
- As much spinach as I could stuff into the magic bullet. It sounds like death since I have been making all those smoothies..oops!
- Some of this:
Yummm!
It was perfectly yummy and creamy. Looove me some smoothies! I also had a small bowl of booty! Pirate’s booty that is..
After my snack, we began the dreadful task of cleaning! Due to us both working forty hours a week..cleaning seems to be a minor priority. In honesty, it’s a huge priority but we often let tiredness and other duties take over and our apartment becomes a mess! It doesn’t help that we live in a one bedroom and it seems that many things just don’t have a place. Well, it’s now clean! I swear we had so many dirty clothes, I didn’t realize we had that many items of clothing between the two of us. This is the laundry that never ends..yes it goes on and on and on and on……
Well, you get the idea
When we got towards the end, Adam started dinner. I love the smell of garlic and onion cooking..mmmmmmm! He made farfalle pasta with diced tomatoes, veggies, garlic, and what was left of a small hunk of mozzy cheese.
Yuuuuhhh-hum!
It helps that I married a man whose nickname in college was “Chef Adam”. He even has a chef coat that says “Chef Adam” on it.
I aim to please.
