San Fran be prepared!

The boy is gone for the week :( 

This is going to sound very lame, but we have never been apart for more then 2 days in the 14 months together. so it is weird but then again I'm leaving for college in a month so it is a little practice.haha

anyway yesterday was another band show i took pictures, but i gave zoe the camera to take a lot of pictures of San Fran. But of course i will still find a way to have food pictures don't you worry!

This morning consisted of making sure i packed enough munchies for the boys (all junk food of course they want nothing green for the road trip go figure) and then he was off 

brekkie:

fruit bowl 

• plum
• red grapes
• banana
• lil granola

I will prob be posting a lot this week! 

rambles and cramming

so i am just going to jump in to what you missed...

Sat

Zoey and his band "the minor" played at this bar call ( brace yourself for the name) swamp grass willy's. There was 4 bands playing and they went up first bc one band ran out of gas coming up to the show. I brought my camera and i seriously looked like a proud mom. i could not stop smiling bc they were doing so good, and he looked so happy to be up there. It was awesome. After the show we went over to one of the band member's house and partied till 3! i am never up that ate haha I'm usually a grandma, but i was having so much fun that i didnt listen to my tiredness.

My boy is on the drums.

Dont mind the people who rudly walked and stood in front of me. haha

Sunday was just getting ready for Mon and Tues orientation down in Miami. I had to wake up at 5AM i ate brekkie before i went

Green monster

• banana
• myoplex chocolate milk protein drink
• lots of spinach
• coconut
• couple dates
• lil whole food vanilla protein powder
• scoop of DCD pb

Once there i munched on a maple cliff bar.

REVIEW: it was ehhh got some sugared pecans but not much and the maple didn't really stick out for me, plus i was still grumbling after his...o well

Lunch was included in the orientation, i had an Einstein wrap, roasted veggie. It had mayo in it! I hate mayo, i really wish they would of told me what was in it o well i ate it bc dinner wasn't going to be for a long time

after a while i went into my stash and took out my next bar... macadamia and apricot fruit and nut bar. this is very good but expensive usually i bought one on sale.

Dinner was in the campus cafeteria, i was excited to see it bc that is what i will be eating while im on my stay. and thank goodness they are vegan/vegetarian options, they do not cook with trans oil, they have the nutritional info for food they make, a huge salad bar with veggies like baby corn! they have soups, and fro yo!!!!!! yummmm

I decided on a huge salad and a fruit cup.

Tues

picking out classes sucked! i spent a good 2-3 hours finding a good schedule. Man to have a nutrition degree it is A LOT of hard classes i was told that the hardest science classes i have to take to get the degree. If i find it too hard i also have a plan B which is personal relations to be an event planner. I think that would be a lot of fun to plan weddings and parties.

Brekkie

at the school was fruit,biscuit w honey and coffee.

QUESTION : What do you think about sororities? I hate ALL drama and i make sure i am not in any ever, but is that in sororities a lot? i didn't want to join one before orientation but after orientation they made it seem totally diff then i thought. were any of you girls in one? did you like it?

Also i may be doing a scholarship pageant called Ms.fiu. I'm am not sure but i would love to win a scholarship to get out of having this loan. yuck Talent i am not sure yet i have a few tricks up my sleeve. it is not until February but i want to do it for the heck of it! you know what i mean? this was i can make oodles of friends and get involved.

Today:

this morning i enjoyed a egg in the hole with a scoop of polenta my mom made last night. I loved the toast but the polenta was too heavy in my tummy. i have to remember that for next time.

Then i made lemonade magic bullet slushy. This was also not a good idea all that acid or what not in the lemon made my tummy feel bad. Does lemonade do that to you?

Lunch couldn't be something heavy since the lemonade was still with me.so i made a

green monster

• ice
• vanilla protein powder
• 3 dates
• lots of spinach
• Cinnamon (sooo good)
• peach
• 3/4 banana
• coconut for chew
• almond milk

along side i had myself a huge scoop of fluff, i needed something sweet and it def squished the craving.

Other food pics i found that i must have eaten recently...

I will get back to my regular tomorrow, cramming a lot in to one post does not do justice. I miss blogging

squash pancakes?!?!

*this was supposed to be published  yesterday*

last night was a lot of fun me and the boy went to a party with his friends! i may or may not of already been pre-gaming with the boy before this ;) but at the party was a Foosball or (however you spell it) and we started betting if he won i would pay for a meal ....long story short i owe this boy 3 meals. But let me tell you they were pretty close games. 

This morning i woke up(it was 12:30) and wanted to make something up but what?! i looked in the fridge and i saw hamburger (no), lettuce(no) squash!!!!! so i grabbed the spaghetti squash and made a "pancake"  it was pretty awesome i might make on tomorrow if i feel vegtablely. On the side was a lil potato with a lil cheese and a slight dab of butter.

It was pretty awesome.

Today the boy and i hit up some stores with unbeatable deals.

1. Goodwill. the boy and i love thrifting( i do not like buying expensive clothing but i have no problem buying expensive food...hmmm odd?) I got a white tube dress($16...but wait it has a green tag so it dropped to $8!), and this white knee length hollister skirt($6)
2. Dollar store- everything in the store was 1/2 off haha so i got 2 candies, 2 "leather" string for jewelry making and 2 packs of yummy mints, and my sister one of those slap bracelets (5 cents)

I didn't get hungry for about 5hours!?!? very odd. But when i got hungry we were at the mall so we went to toojays! The boy and i love tojays very much. Bring me to a deli with soup and salad and i am a happy camper. There we got a bread appetizer. I had a slice of rye bread and dipped it in deli mustard. I ordered The vegetable pita that came with a side of fresh veggies.(no pic nervous about taking pics at restaurants)

• cucumber
• black olives
• onion
• tomato
• random salad veggies
• HUMMUS
• TABLEAU

and of course some of the boys fries :)

Then the boy and i got  white and black cookies.I normally am not a fan of caky cookies but these were amazing i had 3/4 of it.(this thing was a large cookie) and made the boy finish mine bc too much sugar/junkie food makes me feel ill.

I did not do yoga :( since we have been running around the town doing random things.

Giveaway: wing it vegan

curly top

camera cord is back in business

 I found my camera cord!

This is what i have been eating(not all of it just the highlights) since last time you saw the pics.

ICED COFFEE

All blended in a magic bullet

• coffee
• caramel sugar free syrup
• handful ice
• lil almond milk
• Cinnamon 
• whipped cream

I love this! since it is sooo hot over here this drink is very refreshing when i want a cold yummy drink without a heavy smoothie.

This is the apricot/coconut/pb oatmeal cookie.

Also very good will be making more oatmeal cookies in the future

I have been having a lot of salads. This one was AMAZING

LEFTOVER SALAD:

• romaine lettuce(no spinach left )
• tofu that was marinated in my dads home grown hot sauce (very spicy but sweet)
• lil steamed broccoli 
• yellow bell pepper
• roasted tomatoes
• grilled red peppers/onion
• raw corn (I'm in love with raw corn now)
• Hummus as dressing

I think that's all, i basically just looked in my fridge and added everything i could find that was a veggie. so i would call it leftover salad

sweet potato, and English muffin with toaster oven toasted marshmellows 

I love this sweet snack/dessert.

Oat bran with banana, WCW PB, Choco chip PB

Sweet/savory sweet potato fries:

• Half with mozzarella cheese, hummus
  
• Half with Cinnamon,lil sugar, WCW peanut butter

I love sweet potato fries/anything sweet potato. I think they are my fav veggie or tied with broccoli.

Some kind of smoothie with whipped cream ( yummmmmm)

This is a Pancake pizza

• pancake
• WCW peanut butter
• lil strawberry jelly
• coconut

This was fun to make i love bready goodness

Speaking of bready goodness...

These are the banana baked doughnuts i made yesterday. 

Banana doughnuts

The recipe can be found here

Review: these are DELICIOUS. But they are more bready and dense then regular airy,fluffy doughnuts. But for approx 160 cals these are great as a snack or brekkie paired with fruit.

Zoe liked it too as you can see he likes to ham it up to the camera.

I had one yesterday as a snack,today with brekkie,and later prob a snack with smoothie. I love it!

Thats all for right now

 have a great day!

Strangers

Me and the boy are doing the unlimited movies from blockbuster for $10. So i will most def have reviews on all movies!!! yesterday i rented He's just not that into you and today so far we are going to watch Strangers, Tortoise VS Hare, Saw 5! ekkk scary 

Ill be back but i want to show you my eats for today bc yesterdays was just alot of hummus and potato bread and usual smoothie.

Today:

This morning i had

Bruschetta Tomato Basil boca burger with hummus and lil Munster cheese on potato bread with grapes on the side.

first post!!!

SO this is not my first blog but my last one didn't go so well, but after stalking so many of your awesome blogs i have decided to make a new one. I'm not exactly sure what this blog will have but it will mainly be about food and showing you that's its easy peasy to be healthy.  

so today was the first time i took pictures of all my eats!! this is very exciting for me because i always forget to. 

This morning i went to a body works plus abs class but before i went i had this yum yum snack plate of WF yogurt pretzels, dates and a Lil spoon of PB. All on a graduation plate because yes i have finally finished high school!!!!!

It took a while for me to get hungry again so i putsyed around my boys house and did the dishes and made us some brekkie. 

   i am in love with fruit and i absolutely love having a big plate/bowl of an assortment of them. today's was a red delicious apple,small banana, 1/2 a mango, and half a orange.

     I had a very long reading time while my boy was jamming ( he plays the drums) with his buddies. I finished the book "French Women Don't Get Fat" my review will be in another post i am running short on time since i have to get ready for a BBQ at my family's house.

anyway i  had a diet coke...i know this is basically  frowned upon in healthy blog world but this is defiantly my vice,as well as chocolate with being super super healthy. But hey no one is perfect.

I did just snack on a slice of bread with 1/2 an avocado and chipolte sauce! super yummy and the drink was a much needed tall, skinny, hazelnut latte with an extra shot...what can i say i like my coffee like i like my men...strong. haha i kid.

My dad has company coming over so he is grilling( my dad wants to be a pit master when he retires) and the husband is vegetarian like me!! So this means he is grilling portobello mushrooms which are awesome grilled ill come back with pictures but for now ill leave you a picture of me and my boy.
