Last night was another fairly sleepless night 😦 I woke up at least once every hour! I can’t imagine what the problem was this time, my workout at 5 seems early enough and I’ve never had alcohol (I didn’t even drink an entire beer!) mess with my sleep before. Whatever it was it was annoying. I slept in until 9:30 to try to catch up, but now I need to catch up on my school work!
When I got up I ate a Macadamia Paradise Boomi Bar for breakfast.

The blurb on the back said – Did you know that honey works to give athletes an energy boost before and after exercise? … Sweetened with honey, Boomi Bars are great tasting and sweet without any added cane sugar or corn syrup. Seemed like the perfect thing.
Mid-morning I randomly snacked on the last serving of Food Should Taste Good Olive Chips.

For lunch I microwaved the other half of my bsi entry, Italian Stuffed Acorn Squash.

Mmmn. Still delicious.
To drink I tried my first Zevia sample, cola.

And speaking of which, there is a giveaway going on if you scroll to the bottom of this post!
My in-laws will be here in any minute so I am going to finish getting dressed and straighten up the house a bit. We will be hanging out with them all day, so I’ll be back for dinner. Have a good Saturday!
Giveaway
I know several people have commented on my diet soda obsession in the past. Either that they drink it but worry about the chemicals or that the quit that miss it (and I guess some people have said they don’t like it, freaks). As I mentioned above, Zevia is a sugar/calorie free soda made with stevia. How could I not share that with my readers?! Zevia graciously offered to let my run a giveaway and I jumped at the opportunity.

I love diet soda–even if it’s naughty!
I would love to try the all-natural diet sodas. I work the night shift, and am obsessed with my diet Pepsi….but always feel guilty about the weird ingredients and colorings.
Ooooo, soda! =)
Mmmm delish! I have been wanting to try this forever, but can’t bring myself to pay for it haha 🙂
I love diet soda!! Rootbaeer is my favorite and while I am not sure if this will compare to my beloved a and w, I hope it is pretty close! 🙂 yum

i actually have tried Zevia before & I have to say that while they may take some time to getting used to the flavor after the initial drink or 2 these are actually quite good! my favorite is the lemon lime 🙂
