Hey!! Sorry again for my MIAness.
Computes and I have been having a little break.
Break was obvi short lived, but I am working night shifts now…so you know the deal.
I’ve decided to bore you to death with pics of the same breakfast I have had for the past 5 straight days. Scottish oats and I have been having a seeeeriously long love affair. Time to take a break I think.
Same recipe for all the days. Ashley is my food hero.
oats by the computer
with granola, crofters jam and a blob of almond hazelnut butter
oats on the coffee table
swirled with crofters jam and almond butter
pretty oats
same toppings as before.
Soooo moving onto nonoatmeal meals…..
lunch on thursday was a kale salad with grilled corn on the cob, baby cucumbers, avocado, goat chedda, pickles and a bunch of other stuff. Massaged into the kale was some roasted red pepper dressing and ranch on top.
I was faaamished when I got home from work and luckily I have a frickin awesome other half. He made me curry for supper!! His very own recipe he says. I know that he used cauliflower, peas, onions and almond milk with garam masala, curry powder and cayenne but other than that I have no clue what was in this.
I also had a side of brown rice
For dessert I had banana ice cream. I’m not sure where I first got this recipe from (I’m about 98% it was from Gena’s amazing blog) but I make sure to ALWAYS have frozen bananas now.
I mixed one banana with a tsp of almond butter and a tbsp of chia seeds.
More granola went on top.

Yesterday I had a lunch date and forgot my camera π¦ I swear if I had the big honkin’ photo geek camera that I want I would never forget it at home. One day.
Supper last night was leftovers/clean out the fridge night.
leftover curry, chili and with half an Ezekiel english muffin with raspberry jam and a laughing cow.
This was definitely the highlight.

Today we went to the farmers market!!! YAY!! It was awesome. SOMEONE forgot her camera again though. Jeeez. We bought lots of goodies and had a little snacker plate from a new cafe to the market. I got roped into buying some nuts that I couldn’t even test myself because I was wearing my Invisalign braces. The salesman was BOLD! He kept making jokes about “his nuts”. It was funny but after a few too many nut jokes I almost starting feeling uncomfortable. So I bought the stupid nuts. Damn. I need to learn to say no.
woop woop! Market loot.
peppers
cucumbers
basil
samosas (Andrew’s)
homemade hot salsa
organic truffle oil
marinated veggie salad
nuts
raw goat cheese
I have looked every where in the city for raw goat cheese. Insanely excited.
Boo yah! We had to go to the Bulk Cheese Warehouse to get it but I don’t mind. I love finding new cheeses. Goat cheddar is definitely my favorite. Or applewood smoked cheddar. Yuuuum!
Andrew and I took the pup for a looong walk when we got home since it was so nice out. And then I came home and did my usual 20 minute HIIT on the treadmill.
I tossed my marinated veggies on some spinach and added 1/4 of an avocado for lunch.
Sorry this post is crazy rushed but I still have to shower, make supper and get my ass to work for 7pm. And it’s almost 5pm. So much for a nap!!
Byeeeesss!! Hope you are having a super fabulous weekend!!
Can’t wait to catch up and read some blogs on Monday when I’m on days off π

I went to the farmers market today too hahaha it was about 11am i think. but i didnt buy anything, we just went and walked around and checked it all out. Beautiful weather this morning!
we drove by the bulk cheese warehouse today and i thought about going in there but i didnt.

I love farmers market finds. The peppers are so bright and fresh! That’s too funny about the salesman. Maybe thats his strategy to make people feel as uncomfortable as possible until they buy them to shut him up! I hope they’re tasty though!
