Whoops- I definitely fell asleep unintentionally last night while reading so I didn’t get to post anything!
I did however get a nice walk in with my mom and I finally got to the store to pick up pumpkin and baking supplies so I can spend some quality time in the kitchen this weekend. I cant wait- I just love autumn and all of its apple and pumpkin dishes.
Anyway, lunch was fantastic but filling. I work in the corporate office for a family of Italian Restaurants as a marketing assistant. Luckily for me, the office is located behind one of our high end restaurants- and I get to chose fantastic seafood or Italian lunches! Yesterday I went with the “Erin”- a make my own dish of grilled shrimp and vegetables. The chef always changes up how it is made and yesterday included 5 HUGEEEEEE shrimp, zucchini, yellow squash, pepper, red onion, and asparagus. You wouldn’t think this dish would be filling but the portion size is huge and it is full of olive oil and seasonings (more olive oil than I need but its Italian and the chef knows how to make it taste delicious).
Last night I still wasn’t very hungry and the last thing I wanted was roast beef leftovers so I made a simple bowl of peach yogurt, Kashi Go Lean, some Cinnamon Life, and a huge bannana.
After dinner I munched on more Cinnamon Life and some candy corn which I couldn’t resist because it makes me think of autumn. P.S. The pumpkins are my favorite but the chocolate ones have really grown on me lol! I also had some sleepytime tea which is probably the reason I fell asleep while reading. At least the marketing is no lie!
