Well Hello There, Gorgeous








They may be the first, but they will most certainly not be the last.

25 may not be so bad after all.

Pick Two

April 29

-side salad (organic greens with granny smith apple slices and balsamic)
-side of fruit
-iced tea
-water




Not quite sure how that constituted a meal (which....it was supposed to. It was from the pick 2 combo. Um, you'd think it'd be double what they gave, of the salad at least, but alas...)

-caramel nut brownie luna bar
-water




-pear



-handful of mixed nuts
-whole wheat roll
-side of broccoli
-side of cabbage
-cajun spiced tilapia
-water



-1/2 of a rice dream chocolate pie ice cream sandwich
-water




Outfit of the Day:

excuse the stupid face, LOL

I never found "THE" Cynthia Vincent wedges, but these are a good replacement. Kind of ugly, but in a cute way? And at least not everyone in the world has these? Yeah, I'll keep telling myself that. They are super comfy!

Tea Set

-brown rice salsa chips
-small side salad with just organic mixed greens, black pepper, and organic italian dressing
-water





-vanilla rooibos tea (served in our adorable new tea pot!)






-1 mini 3 musketeers, 1 dark chocolate almond hersheys bite



-2 shrimp tacos (I couldn't tell for sure, but they may have had a littttle cheese ugh, the menu didn't say they would)
-rice
-super small side salad (lettuce, tiny bit of tomato, 2-3 slices of avocado)
-2 bites of tilapia
-chips and salsa
-mambo taxi (basically a small frozen margarita with sangria poured on top)

I don't know why I bother with these kinds of pics lol. I mean really, Amanda...

After dinner the nite was terrible. As were the afternoon/evening the day before. Stupid full moon. My lungs hurt badly too, though I can't be sure if that could be attributed to asthma, stress, or both. I'm gonna go with both.

Ziziki's

April 26

-the lil bit of leftover tofu panang curry
-4 mini vegan spring rolls dipped lightly in leftover peanut sauce
-water




The panang curry doesn't have a little spicy icon next to it on the menu, yet the yellow curry does. I normally order the yellow and don't find it spicy at all, but this one was. Huh.

For being a frozen food, those spring rolls are really good. Granted, they are made by a company named Health Is Wealth, so they better be! :-P

-4 pita squares with artichoke hummus (it was ok, but major rip off...$10!)
-half of a veggie souvlaki with a little tzikiki (too oniony, but otherwise good)
-about half a serving of roasted potatoes (also quite good)
-glass of italian pinot grigio (delish)
-water



my portion x 2



We tried a new (to us...we think. Neither my Mom or I can remember if we've been to their other location) Greek restaurant. I'd say it's a winner. Not as good as our favorite, but still good enough to make it into the rotation. And it's open mid-afternoon, so that's nice. Not that we're usually home at 3 on a Monday, but hey for times like these it's nice they don't close from 2:30-5 like the others.

-frozen grapes
-water



-the other 1/2 of the carrot cake clif bar



-2 tsps of homemade coconut oil chocolate (I think I was slightly too heavy handed with the agave, but otherwise really good)




-the rest of my veggie souvlaki pita + the leftovers of my mom's greek side salad



The salad had a little feta in it (plus I ate the tzikiki knowing it was made with yogurt), but after accidentally having the first bite of feta I wasn't going to stop. Mmmm feta.

Stuffed. But not uncomfortable.

I also had a sip of (vanilla) rice milk for the first time. Walmart didn't have almond milk, ugh. I was so scared to try this for some reason haha, but it was pretty good. I still can't bring myself to try hemp milk. But this was better than I thought it would be.
