A Lunch Time Entry

Hello bloggies!

First things first - Meghann's Blogger Bake Sale is still going on. It looks like it's going to be a hit too!! :o) Bidding ends at midnight EST time so be sure to pick out your bake good of choice before then.

Also, someone bid on my cookies (yaaaaaayy!!) which means my mom won't have to end up buying them! lol I have a funny feeling it was one of you lovelies that reads this blog. Thank-you! :o) I'll make sure to make your batch extra yummy!


Now back to the weekend recap . . . .

After my very disappointing breakfast I was starving. Honestly I don't remember being so hungry mid morning in a long time. That's probably because I've been downing Green Monsters for so long.

Thankfully I'd packed a mid-morning snack just in case:


Starvation averted (:oP) I diligently returned to my work duties. I was all about concentrating until the fiance called to tell me that a package I had been waiting for had arrived. At lunch I ran home to see my new toys:


Via Greyhound . . .


But originally from Bowflex!!! Tee-hee! I was tickled pink with excitement at this point. It was all I could do to keep myself from ripping the box apart!!!

And my toys?


Two Bowflex Selecttech Dumbbells!!! They arrived just in time given that I just allowed my gym membership to lapse. I'm turning into an at-home workout kind of girl and I love it!!!

Want to see one up close?


They look kind of huge but they're adjustable and absolutely AWESOME!!! Stay tuned for a full and proper review of these little babies soon.

Eventually I calmed myself down enough to have my lunch. This plate was inspired by my girl Sharon over at Snippets and Bites. She's always putting together these beautiful plates completely loaded down with fruits and veggies. I tried my hand at a Sharon style meal and paired it all with about 1/2 cup of the last of my massive batch of home-made meat sauce:


Dinner was a rare treat for the boy and I - pizza!!!!! On the way home I picked up some pre-made whole wheat multi-grain pizza dough. I started off by topping it with some pesto (love me some pesto!) and pizza sauce:


I then topped that off with heaps and heaps of veggies, one sliced up zesty Italian soy-sausage, and some partly-skimmed mozzarella cheese! Quick and easy, way cheaper than delivery, and better for you too. Score!


I had 1/4 of the pizza and the rest . . . well I'm sure we can all assume where the rest ended up! :oP lol

Later on that night the fiance and I headed to the movies. Dinner and a movie on a Friday night. It felt like we were just at the beginning stages of dating again. We'll have to do it again soon!

Time for me to head back to work . . . I'll be back later tonight with the rest of my weekend and a white-chocolate coconut blondie recipe!

My first ever blondie and I assure you it won't be my last!!!!
