WIAW: While Traveling

By Posted in Breakfast, Food Tagged , , , , , , , , 32 Comments

So my traveling is over (for now).  I can’t say I’m that sad for the actual traveling…I hate driving  I honestly ate out about 90% of the time.  We all know how much I like to eat out but eating out that much got to be a bit tiresome towards the end and I’m glad to spend the next few days cooking and preparing food for myself.

So with that here are some (not all) of my food.  Pretty sure it looks more healthy when you take photos of it.

Coffee and Red Velvet Creamer

Quiche (made by Tammi and basically awesome)

Tim ate frog legs…not my style…LOL

So I got salmon instead…

and pancakes too…

Obviously this is not two weeks worth of food…just the ones I remembered to take photos of.

Also are you participating in PMB tomorrow?   I think I’m going to do it up vlog style!  ;)

Question for you: Do you ever get tired of eating out?

WIAW: Instagrammed

By Posted in Food Tagged , , , , , , , , 17 Comments

I always feel like it’s somewhat cheating or boring because if you follow me on instagram, I normally post these shots and so it’s like you are seeing the same thing..over and over again…but alas I don’t think anyone is really that concerned with it. 

With that I will dump some of instagram eats on you blog readers and commentary (per usual).  

 

When I go out to eat I get omelettes…because I can’t make them.  (stuffed with crab and mozerella…topped with mushrooms and feta cheese)

I like raw fish (Sashimi).

Giant 1.1 pound steaks…Recovery food of champions.

Protein smoothies have tickled my fancy lately

and no day is complete without my love for coffee.

 

Question for you: What have you been eating and loving lately? 

 

WIAW On My Birthday

By Posted in Personal Tagged , , , , , 28 Comments

Some of you may know, my birthday was last Thursday (July 12th).  Though I never formally said, “my birthday is today” because I didn’t see the point…it was…it came and went and it was fun…I had a great birthday dinner with my family and Anna.   Since I turned 22, I decided waffle house and having beer and waffles wasn’t classy enough for my new found adulthood…

So we went to a nice Japanese restaurant in my area because that is my jive. Well that was my jive on my birthday anyways.  It was really good and did not disappoint.

This will be a picture filled blog because I haven’t had one in a while. 

Sushi roll of salmon and tuna with avocado. So good.

Sashimi=raw fish. My absolute favorite.

Seemed like a good 22 year old thing at the time.

Then they sung to me and gave me a free fried ice cream. Which was delicious.

No really, they did sing to me…

 

Question for you: What did you do for your last birthday?

Friday Favorites: Eating Out Like It’s My Job

By Posted in Food, Resturants Tagged , , , , , , , 12 Comments

Okay so maybe you can relate to me and maybe you can’t.  I’ll get to the nitty gritty. My parents eat out a lot and so when I’m at home, I eat out a lot.  Since Sunday, I’ve been out to eat every single day and sometimes more than once per day.  Since really I suppose I could make food at home instead of going out with them, but that would imply not going on whatever adventures lead to eat out.   I also tend to eat out with friends a lot to catch up.  That way after dinner I can be like oh uhhh…gotta go.  Instead of making an excuse of why I need to leave when we are other placed.

Kidding of course.

For instance, on Wednesday my parents and I went to the book store then just ate at Boston Market since after an hour in the bookstore we were hungry.  I was nervous-I had never eaten there before but went with possibly the greatest fast food salad I have ever had.

Thursday I also had a date with the famous aDuBs in which we explored Panera (because it’s our fav).  They have a salmon salad now!  Who is responsible for not telling this?  Rude.

Thursday evening, was the day the rents promised we could carb load for my big race tomorrow.  Ie: the 20k.  I carb load two days before yes sir.  I tend to have a lighter meal the night before a race. 

Pasta and gyro meat=heaven.

On the way there though-there was an accident in the tunnel a few cars ahead of me.  So I got stuck in the tunnel.  I’m pretty chlaustrophic so I spent my time reading blogs and taking myspace style photos until it was done…

Sitting in a tunnel. Chilling. They should have an antm shoot in the tunnel...such great yellow light.

I couldn’t even remember where I went on Monday until looking at my trusty iPhone and seeing the sushi/sushami I had for dinner.  It was so good.

and they made it so pretty!

The manager was OBSESSED with my table (boarderline creepy) she kept telling me to tell her when I ate the Octopus.  She also said adding wasabi was the greatest thing ever.  ( already liked wasabi a lot though).

 

It was.

So too make matters short-I eat out a lot and here are my favorite foods of the week.  Ie: the meals I ate out.  Well I’m off to relax until my big 20k race tomorrow.  It’s not so much big, but just big for me.  It has given me something to train for without waiting until March for a decent half marathon. 

Question for you: Does your family eat out a lot? 

Spider Monkey Style

Hello blogging Besties.

Happy Saturday Ya’ll.  It has been a boat ride of the last couple of days.  Yesterday, I was in a car for about 3 or so hours and went for a run…all before 10 am.  Now that I think about it…I should have just stayed there for the day.  Oh well, next time.

Anyways sorry for the lack of Fashion Friday last week, but only one person sent me a photo!  #wahh.

So please.  Stop reading my blog now and send me a photo of you in your real girl (or boy) outfits now.  lolzthatswim@gmail.com

Anyways yesterday, somehow became incredibly busy.  From my driving, to group projects to going shopping to being ided three times to have a stupid pumpkin beer.

Really?  I understand my license is out of state and I understand that I look angry and it doesn’t look like me.  But my military id does.  My student id does.  My credits cards all have my same date of birth.

And I was buying 1 damn pumpkin beer…not a keg.

Enough booze talk.

————————-

Let’s talk food.  Pictures mostly from my phone will help me remember the week.  Somewhat.

Monday I made a pancake bigger than my hand.

Taco Shell Tuesday.  But really-any salad in a taco shell is a good salad to me.

Although any salad with duck is also a good salad.

I also coupled it with a beer.  I might become a drunk at this rate…2 beers in one week.

I believe Wednesday was the day I decided to make red velvet pancakes.  (My ultimate comfort food)

And Thursday I made a French toast waffle (my other ultimate comfort food).

Oh and I was a real girl Thursday too (but only because I woke up and my hair actually looked decent). 

Friday I went to an Asian buffet.  I ate so many long yans (an Asian fruit similar to pears)

And sushi.

And imitation crab. Which I forgot to photograph.  I’m over it.

Afterwards on Friday, Jenna, my house and myself went shopping at the closest mall…45 minutes away.  I thought I had found the cutest long sleeve crop top but when I lifted my arms, there was like a whole layer of fabric underneath.  So confusing and so weird.

Let me flap my wings! I have never seen something so boxy and utterly strange.

They wouldn’t let me buy this…sad day.

Question for you:

1.       Weirdest fashion style or something you will not wear?

I hate jeggings.
