Delayed Gratification

It was another productive day, I’m on a roll!  I stayed up way too late last night so the roll didn’t get started until 10 this morning.  I posted my uncooperative blog post first thing, and then did 10minutes of stretching and strength training – including 70reps of abs, 50reps of arms, and 30reps of legs.

Then I got straight to work on my Chemistry homework.  And worked.  And worked.  And worked.  And suddenly, my whole day was gone!  I hate that it takes so long, but I am thrilled to be done, I think this is the first thing I’ve done in advance all semester.

I was so focused on enthalpy changes that I forgot to eat, but once I arrived at the grocery store at 4 I promptly remembered!  I managed to stay focused enough to get our food for next week – and save $20 in sales/coupons, yay! – but I was definitely rushing.  Good thing the meal (lunch/dinner) I prepared when I got home was worth waiting for!

I seriously loved every single component of this.  I was in foodie heaven.  Honey mustard tuna salad.

This recipe (click here) just came to me, and I’m so glad it did.  So tasty.

Apple slices and 1serving+ Food Should Taste Good Jalopeno Chips for dipping.

The chips were the perfect spice level to go with my salad.

And finally a glass of POM Nectarine juice.

This was better than kiwi, it will be coming to store soon, look for it!

In just a bit we are heading out for a date, to see “Couples’ Retreat.”  We’ve decided to cut back on the movies this year (we were going 1-3times a week in Brooklyn!!) but this was definitely on my worth it list.  I am so excited about my movie snack –

My first Halloween candy!  I packed 1 serving each of Candy Corn and Ghost Dots.  DSC00322

I hope everyone else has a good evening!

Have you had any spook candy yet?  What is your favorite kind?  My favorite is mini York patties.
