Rain Check

The intense torrential downpour all day mucked up my plans, but I did find some fun substitutes!  I had so many crazy dreams last night that I ended up pressing snooze on the alarm this morning until after 9.  I ate a Cashew Almond Boomi Bar on the way to volunteering today.

I liked the flavorbut I was running late so I only ate 3/4 of it.

For lunch at the hospital I used my voucher to get a sandwich from the cafeteria.

Chicken salad in a jalopeno wrap with spring mix lettuce, bell peppers, banana peppers, sundried tomato and pesto sauce.  I ate 85% or so.

Adam had the day off from school (Yom Kippur) so he picked me up at the hospital to save me from the rain.  I had planned on going to the gym but once I saw the sky it didn’t take much convincing to get me to see a movie with him!  We went to a 3o’clock showing of “Surrogates,” which we both enjoyed.  We hit up Dairy Queen at the mall.

I ordered a small oreo cookie dough blizzard.

I was very glad that Adam drove me to class because the rain was so bad you could barely see.  We ended up taking the (slow) main road home instead of the highway because it was so bad.

When we got home we made the perfect rainy day dinner – pizza!  I would say it was super veggie, but by the time the husband got done with it it was super cheesey!

On a store bought crust we piled

  • 12oz pizza sauce
  • 2C reduced fat mozzarella cheese
  • 1 chopped red bell pepper
  • 1 chopped yellow bell pepper
  • 3/4pint mushrooms
  • 1/2 sliced yellow onion

We precooked the veggies for 15minutes at 475* before we put them on the pizza.  Look at how sweet our pizza sauce was –

It was very tasty, but we definitely bought it because I fell in love with the can!

After it came out of the oven I ate 1/4 of the finished product.

Yums.  We watched the new episode of “Bones” while we ate and towards the end I had a half serving of Lindt Sea Salt Dark Chocolate.

Yums x2.

I’m disappointed that the gym didn’t happen because I have to go back to the doctor on Thursday, but such is life.  I always appreciate hang out time with the husband.  Have a great night everybody!

What do you like to put on pizza?  My favorite toppings are green olives and broccoli.  I also really like cheeseless pesto pizza.

  1. oh man, today’s rain was SO not cool and pretty scary. my apartment keeps whistling from the wind. not cool.

    that blizzard looks so damn good. droolz.

  2. Gosh, it’s years since I made a pizza – Wonderful Husband is on a constant weight reduction programme. he eats so much between meals he has to have low cal. meals. Honestly.

    However, I like Italian sausage on pizzas. Also lots of cheese.
