Does Anything Beat Free Cookies?
Posted: June 30, 2011 Filed under: Breakfasts, Lunches, Snackage, Sweet Fixes 6 Comments »I thought I had the most ingenious plan for breakfast.
I’d whipped together plain Greek yogurt with a scoop of Acai powder for a sweet/tart flavoring, thrown on plenty of toppings and photographed away…
…Only to dream of yesterday’s dessert as I was eating it!
I may or may not have “sold” my contact information to SunTrust bank in exchange for the goods…but oh how good it was!
The moment of ecstasy from the free chocolatey, peanut buttery goodness will be worth the countless phone calls and fliers that I’m sure I’ll receive in the near future!
Also in the {very} near future: Chelsey’s vegan egg salad!
I stole a few spoonfuls from the batch I made last night as I was assembling my sandwich, and I can already vouch for its deliciousness.
Is it lunchtime yet?
And more importantly, will CookieTrust be back in my building’s lobby anytime soon?
MINE
Posted: June 23, 2011 Filed under: Breakfasts, Dinners, Lunches 6 Comments »Yesterday, it seemed like I had “Seagull Syndrome” from the moment I woke up. Everything I saw, I wanted, and I declared it MINE.
The first Living Social deal to hit my inbox – an unlimited month of Boot Camp classes – instantly MINE.
With that price, I feel like I couldn’t turn it down. Even if I only go once a week, it will average out to $5 a class. Oh, it’s gonna hurt so good!
Cold, sweet, extra-chocolatey breakfast? MINE.
My grabby hands couldn’t make my favorite healthy chocolate smoothie fast enough!
- 1 large banana
- 1 handful kale
- 1 cup almond milk
- 1 scoop chocolate protein powder
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon flax meal
- 3 ice cubes
It’s probably good that there was only a smidge of cereal left over in the box – I’m not sure how restrained I would have been if more goods were available to me!
When lunch rolled around, I enjoyed the leftover Chinese food that I finagled away from my mother after our weekend together.
Leftover Buddhist’s Delight, not quite as good as the first time around, with a scrambled egg beater to freshen it up.
Of course, greedy snackage also occurred:
Fun fact: I hate raw carrots plain! I only eat them raw if I have a dip to smother them in!
Even after I escaped the florescent lighting, I still hadn’t escaped the MINE mindset!
Oh hai, happy hour. When you advertising my favorite draft for $2 right in front of the path where I usually walk Haley…of course I have to swing in! Bam – MINE!
Since I was right next door to my favorite sushi restaurant, it would have been a crime not to grab dinner, no?
Definitely MINE. All mine.
Are you a “see it/have to have it” kind of person, or can you resist your urge to make everything yours?
