Good morning! This post is going up late since I’ve been up since 5 cramming for our Advanced Pharmacology exam that we have today. My brain does not work well at night so I’d much rather get up obnoxiously early when my brain is fresh and I can guzzle coffee.
After a few hours of studying and a few cups of coffee I headed out for a 5 mile run along the river to clear my head before class at 10. I won’t lie guys, my sleep has not been what it should. I’m staying up way too late and this week I’m hitting the reset button on that. Last night Brit and I promised we would be in bed by 10pm tonight. Because while late night chats are great, getting 6 hours of sleep night after night is not healthy and makes us feel like crap. And my coffee consumption is out of control. So starting today, I’m reeling in the caffeine and putting myself to bed earlier. I’m human too, and lately, the sleep part of health is super lacking.
But on the food front, I can’t complain!
I didn’t do a “days worth” of eats this week, but instead I’m sharing everything on my phone that I’ve snapped this week. I’ve read through all the Facebook comments on what you guys want more of on this blog and more daily eats was one of them. My plan is to still do WIAW like usual [after this crazy week of testing is over] and then include more food stuff. Ask and you shall receive!
This week I actually made it to the grocery store and am back into a more normal rhythm where I’m eating at home more than eating out and that not only feels good, but my wallet is happier too. So here’s what eats have looked like this week:
breakfast // when eating at home, eggs with Cholula + pancakes with cashew butter and banana have been the jam all week and we also ate out at Grey Dog – amazing omelets, sweet potato fries and cranberry walnut bread and of course, the standard post run green smoothie of 1/2 scoop Vega One+ 1/2 frozen banana + almond milk + frozen spinach
lunch // salmon and sautéed veggies [sweet potato, kale, peppers and onion] in coconut oil and when eating out, Whole Foods salad bar
snacks // these mini Perfect bars I found at Whole Foods [how adorable is that?], kiwis eaten with the skin on [yes, it’s good- like a super furry peach!] and Chloe’s soft serve fruit- my favorite is banana + dark chocolate mixed together – living close to this place is a very good thing.
dinner // spaghetti squash with roasted eggplant, mushrooms, zucchini, nutritional yeast and marinara and another night I had breakfast tacos [eggs, spinach, pepper and Cholula] with sautéed kale and cherry tomatoes
obligatory sweets // leftover birthday cupcakes and homemade donuts that Brit made last weekend
And that’s a wrap for now. Have a fabulous day!
I really enjoy seeing all your random eats! Always gives me great ideas. looks like you’re having a great summer!
