Desserts On My Mind

Thank you all so much for all of your sweet birthday wishes! You all sure know how to make me feel extra special :)

You already saw on Instagram how I started my morning off.

After that my mom and I actually went to our medium. We were extremely lucky she was able to fit us in so last minute. It was really comforting to get validation about my uncle.

For lunch, we ended up trying out gluten free cupcakes from a new bakery near my house. The red velvet was my favorite, so so good.

The Best Dessert

Hey all! It's been awhile...
Sorry I didn't get to pop in and chat with you all this weekend. It was a busy one!

Friday started off with absolutely gorgeous sunshine and perfectly hot weather (think 75 degrees). Troy and I both had the day off from school/work so we made a spontaneous trip to the beach.

WIAW- True Life: I'm A Messy Eater

It's Wednesday again?! Can't believe how fast this week is going by! Time for another round of What I Ate Wednesday Tuesday...

Just to let y'all in on a little secret, I don't post everything I eat. I know some bloggers do this and whatever works for them is great, but the world doesn't need to know every piece of food going into my mouth. I feel like people start comparing their food intake and it just leads to bad things. I know I've looked at a blog and felt like I overate wayyyyy too much compared to someone else. In reality, everyone needs a different amount of food and to each his/her own.

Moving right along, let's take a peak into my Tuesday meals.

Breakfast started off early since Tuesday is a school day. Peanut butter overnight oats with frozen TJ's raspberries on top. TJ's has the best frozen fruits. They always taste fresh and not to mention so cheap too!

I Acommplished my Life's Goal

And it was getting my picture on the wall at Ralph's Ices!!

My mom calls it the wall of shame, but I am not ashamed. I am a proud lover of Ralph's (best ices hands-down). All I need in life is Starbucks and Ralph's. Last night was the first night they opened for the season. I was having withdrawals since they have been closed for four months. Heck yes, I was one of the first customers. Is it embarrassing that the girl working there saw me there literally all the time last summer? Even went back twice in one night. Yikeeess, I can't believe I just admitted that.

Thoughts On No Sugar?

Happy Weekend friends!

I hope you all slept in much later then me. I was wide awake at 7am, it seems I can not sleep til 8 anymore. Does this mean I'm getting old?!

Some random thoughts:

Ferrets, I love them dearly. Growing up I was always wanted one, but my mom would not allow it. They just seem like such a fun loving, cool pet to have. Plus, being able to take them on walks is awesome! Seeing cute ferrets on leashes gets me every time. I asked the boyfriend if we can get one, this was his response. So I am guessing that is a no? I will have to continue to work on this.

 

Sushi Date and Caramel Sauce

Long time no talk huh? I had all intentions of coming back and chatting with you guys on Sunday, but the day just flew by. Sometimes it feels like I need 36 hours in a day instead of only 24. To be honest, it was kind of nice shutting the computer down for the day. Technology is something that is very easy for me to get addicted to.

Even though this weekend was a busy one, it was a marvelous one. Thanks to Katie for Marvelous Mondays!

On Saturday I picked up a new cereal at my local health food store. Finding a gluten free cereal thaat is low in sugar, but high in protein proved to be a challenge. We all know I eat my beloved oatmeal cookie almost everyday, but a girl has to change it up every once in awhile. This one by Better Balance is pretty tasty, but at $8 a box, it is def. not something I can afford on a regular basis. That is way too much money for a box of cereal, but it is nice for a treat.

What I Ate Wed.-Leftover Chocolate

Happy Wednesday! I'm still off from school today so I am enjoying relaxing and taking it easy.

So let's take a look at my eats from yesterday??

Breakfast started off nice and early around 8am. No matter how hard I try, I can't sleep late. 8:30 is super late for me. Usually, I'm always up by 7:30. A big bowl of oatmeal with peanut butter hit the spot. Big shocker right?? ;)
