Guys this has been the strangest day in terms of eating.\u00a0 Everything is sort of off schedule and just off in general.\u00a0 It’s a little weird.<\/p>\n

I got up this morning and took care of Rocks. It was glorious outside and it’s time like that when I wish I could sit outside in the morning with my coffee and laptop.\u00a0 The back of our house gets sunlight from the minute it rises till about 1pm and it’s intense.\u00a0 There is nothing I can use, short of attaching something to the house, to block the sun.\u00a0 An umbrella for the table does nothing because of the angle of the sun at the time.\u00a0 If I take my laptop outside I can’t see anything.\u00a0 And our furniture is covered with dew so it’s wet.\u00a0 But I would love to have a place to sit in the morning and soak it all up!<\/p>\n

I did some blog work stuff first before getting coffee and making breakfast.\u00a0 We decided not to hit MT<\/abbr> today so we could do stuff around the house, blog stuff, and also hit up Whole Foods.\u00a0 Eventually, going on about 9am I got hungry.\u00a0 I wanted oats so bad but no bananas means no oats.\u00a0 Oatbran does a lot better without a banana but oats are just too runny.\u00a0 Weird.\u00a0 All that to say that I opted for oatbran this morning.<\/p>\n

\"Coffee<\/p>\n

I added blueberries and blackberries to the oatbran.\u00a0 And then to sweeten it, I drizzled some of the jam I got from Tehku on top.\u00a0 It looks like an octopus!\u00a0 Or maybe like a ghostie coming to get you! :p\u00a0 Coffee was just so-so again this morning.\u00a0 Scott better fix that up quick!<\/p>\n

Once Scott got up, I showered and got dressed for the day.\u00a0 Then I waited around for him to get ready so we could finally hit up Whole Foods.\u00a0 There are some things that I specifically get only at WF<\/abbr>, like beans, artichokes, seafood and things like that.\u00a0 We were out of everything and we needed to stock up.\u00a0 It was definitely going to be a whole paycheck trip.\u00a0 It was “lunch time” when we left and I was hungry so I polished off a can of raisins in the car.\u00a0 Probably the equivalent of two handfuls.<\/p>\n

Whole Foods was crazah! I thought it might be a little empty because of the game but nope it was packed!\u00a0 I was a little cranky because they only had one tub of 2% Fage. :grumpy: I’ll have to make a pit stop somewhere else and get some more.\u00a0 However my fridge now looks like this:<\/p>\n

\"FridgeOh yeah veggie love!\u00a0 It’s a mess I know, tomorrow morning I’m going to process all my veggies and herbs and get them washed and so forth.\u00a0 For now I just wanted stuff put away.<\/p>\n

Now it’s time for my lame lunch! :lol:\u00a0 It was so late by the time we sat down to eat, like 4:30! So I didn’t want anything huge because I wanted some space for dinner later.<\/p>\n

\"Carrot,<\/a>There was a small plate of carrot sticks, crab sushi (brown rice, avocado, cucumber, real crab), and two mini falafel patties.<\/p>\n

\"Smoothie<\/a>Smoothie!<\/p>\n
