bad blogger

sweet thangs, thanks for bday wishes! sorry i have been so m.i.a... shoot child, i'm so impressed by all of you who post everyday! sometimes i feel like life just gets in the way you know?
howevvvva... i just saw julie & julia last night, it reminded my ass that i love blogging and reading all yo fly mamacita's blogs!

so where have i been? welp recovering from my 21st... then off to new york with my two besties. i stayed at my cousin's who lives in the heart of greenwich village (okay balla) and let me tell you... i am in love!!! i want to move to manhattan SO badly... to bad my ass is a broke joke, and you have to be rolling in the benjamins to live there, heartbreak.

on to food. i don't have pics of all my meals since i've been back BUT here are a few highlights...

monday

bfast.
1/2 cup of oats, 1 light laughing cow cheese, 1 fried egg, hot sauce and some salt n' peppa.

after i digested i ran slash walked outside for about an hour... the sun was shinin', birds chirpin'... overall amazing.

snack.
white nectarine with cinnamon.

dinna: salmon burger avec dijon mustard. also a salad with lettuce, strawberries, capers and mushrooms with a dollop of some bomb hummus.

later this gem appeared before my eyes.
white nectarine (hey if i don't gobble them all up they'll go bad, right?) and naner with cinn, and a side of better n'pb.

tuesday

brekkie.
i apologize for the hot sauce, it makes me cringe. the egg looks like it just got in a battle and lost... well i suppose it did, cause i ate it.
naner with almond butta and cinnamon, plus a hard boiled egg dipped in hot saucy.

i ran about 45 minutes outside, felt glorious. but for some reason homegirl's legs feel like jello. i think my body is a) confused i'm running, due to the fact i took a break last week because of all the festivities and b) i'm not used to running outside.
just means i got to get my stretch on!

snackie.
hard boiled egg. what the hell is going on with me? i never eat eggs, and it seems i've been eating them non stop. strange indeed.

and this concoction...
frozen naner blended with 1 scoop chocolate protein powder, cinnamon and pumpkin spice. it was pretty good because i wanted something sweet, but let's just say the taste of protein powder was not exactly subtle.

then before going with the fam to downtown edmonds for my pops bday i had this...
some carrots and cashews.

we walked around and went to a wine bar. got some wine... legally with the parental's ha! totally not a big deal, but hey 21 is still new to me.
dinna was 1 glass of red and a beet salad: spinach, beets, deep fried goat cheese balls (sounds gross slash dirtay, but it was baaamb) and a sweet raspberry vinaigrette.

saw julie & julia then came home and read.
while munching on this beaut.
dove dark chocolate and better n'pb. you bets believe i dipped the chocolate in the mock pb, delisssh. also i had some pumpkin tea with soy milk.

right now i'm sipping on black coffee about to tear myself from the computer screen and begin my day....
