She Says: Hunger, Please Subside.
Wednesday, March 10th, 2010For the past five days I have been the hungriest person and pretty much unable to get enough to eat! And I know it’s real hunger and not boredom or nervousness because I’ve really been trying to pay attention to that. I know we’ve all been there for a day or two, but five days! Hmph.
This hunger has meant a lot of snacks. Today I had the Organic Mmmaple Pecan Granola Bar that Nature’s Path sent me. This was basically a cookie in the shape of granola bar and it was soooooo yummy. I almost cried when it was gone.
I also quenched some serious thirst with this Agave Mate. Such a tasty mate!
After school I went to the gym for a bit. I planned to run, but after 1 mile I was just not feeling it. Instead I hopped on the treadmill for 30 minutes before doing something very, very naughty …
I broke my self-imposed market ban today. You see, I had to go to Trader Joe’s for a friend and I justified picking up a few things for myself for two reasons: (1) I will not be here to go food shopping this weekend (super psyched to drive to Mass. in a runaway Prius); and (2) I don’t remember right now, but there was a good second reason.
This is what I picked up for me:
I often get agave there, but this is my first time with the maple syrup. Has anyone ever bought the maple syrup & agave mix from Trader Joe’s?
The reason I banned myself from the market was because I was “running in” to grab “one or two necessities” and coming out of Whole Foods down $20 – $30 a couple times a week. No bueno for the wallet. I learned my lesson and will try my best to restrict my entry into food stores to once a week.
For dinner I warmed up some frozen Vegetable Pesto Soup. I love the parsnips in there!
About half way through I decided this was not going to cut it, so I toasted up an Ezekiel English Muffin & topped it with Earth Balance.
And after that I was still hungry so I made some dessert oatmeal with a little Trader Joe’s Roasted Flaxseed Almond Butter.
Oh please insatiable hunger, go away!
Teacher Question: I am planning a field trip and would like to know: what’s the best and/or worst field trip you ever went on?
