I am working my way through a migraine and I want to hurry to bed with a magazine. An episode of “30 Rock” may or may not happen first though…
Yesterday was the worst day of the year (hardy har; see what I did there? it’s not really hyperbole because there have only been three days). I was cranky and out-of-control-hungry all day long and the only things I managed to do were stuff my face and sulk. I vowed that the 3rd would be better than the 2nd, and even with my migraine today was a good day. Woop.
I did start with a good breakfast.
1 serving of Cascadian Farm Berry Cobbler Granola topped with 2 handfuls of blueberries and blackberries, a sprinkle of toasted coconut, and Silk Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk.
This is the breakfast that’s grrrrrrreat!
I brought my 2nd aloe drink from Aloic to work with me.
Super refreshing.
For lunch I packed some old beans. They were jolly good. <– are you slapping your knee yet? 3/4 cup black-eyed peas with a big handful of chopped green pepper, a small handful of smoked almonds, and 1 oz-ish chopped Kerrygold vintage cheddar; seasoned with salt and a few dashes of green Tabasco.
The mix of flavors and textures in this quick salad was so tasty and satisfying. Definitely a dish I need to recreate when I’m packing lunches for my big girl job for the rest of the year my life.
*no photograph available* I ate at least 10 mini candy canes during my shift and gave myself the worst sore throat. It was a slow day and I didn’t get much sleep so sugar was the only way I could stay awake. Terrible.
And I’m just now realizing that the massive sugar intake is probably what led to my migraine. Goddamnit.
I was already starting to feel off when I headed home from work so I picked up a slice of Buffalo chicken pizza for dinner.
With blue cheese, plus a mound of baby carrots from home.
I really could have split that giant slice with Adam (that is in fact 1 Zetti’s slice cut in half, not two normal-size slices) but he’s not here and I have no self-control so I ate the whole thing!
I’m also going to eat this packet of Artisana Cacao Bliss for dessert.
I’ll have to let you know how it is in the morning. I tried to heat it up a little and took things too far so now I’m waiting for it to resolidify.
Hope everyone has a good night!
