Today’s session at the gym was definitely a GOOD one. I’m already feeling sore!! I started with 25 minutes on the elliptical, followed by a killer BodyPump class, & an abs class. I used to take this class all the time, because it’s only 15 minutes, and it’s right in the same studio, immediately after BodyPump. I guess I’ve just been in too much of a rush to stay lately?!? Well, my abs were screamin’ the whole 15 minutes…tomorrow ought to feel lovely! ;)
So after getting home from the gym I was definitely feeling the trifecta of laziness:
-tired
-sore
-starving…borderline famished!
Put these 3 things together and you have a girl that does NOT want to work hard for her dinner! ;)
We hadn’t planned anything because hubby was supposed to have another softball game which got canceled, so I didn’t really know where to start. I rummaged through the freezer and found this box of frozen veggies that I must have picked up forever ago. I’m a huge fan of dried cranberries, so I decided to make this dinner selection #1.
I wasn’t sure how these would turn out, but I actually REALLY enjoyed this combo! The subtle sweetness of the cranberries mixed in with the carrots and cauliflower was definitely a winner. Plus, the sauce they were in wasn’t too overpowering, which is always a plus. I think I’d certainly try these again (as long as I have a coupon!) ;)
Well, pushing the buttons on the microwave for the veggies was border-line on what I could handle, so dinner selection #2 remained super simple…a classic old-school PB & J! :-D
Skippy Natural Super Chunk PB + Polaner All Fruit Strawberry Preserves on 2 slices of light wheat bread.
Who doesn’t love PB & J?!? (ACTUALLY, the hubby does not love PB & J! He’s strictly a PB guy) ;)
Yup, I was that hungry! :shock: And I figured since I was goin’ “old-school”, I’d keep the theme going with the classic, 4-triangle cut sandwich. I used to love when my mom cut my sandwiches in 4’s…but triangles were always better than squares. :)
I had to restrain myself from going back for another PB&J, but I’ll let this settle, and see how I’m feeling in a little while. I’m pretty positive I will be consuming some more food this evening, and there’s a good chance it’s going to include some more PB! :-D
I’m off to relax on the couch with hubby and watch the “Losing it with Jillian” episode that I DVR’d last night. (I caught half an episode on Sunday and REALLY liked it!)
Question for ya!…
What’s your favorite “old-school” food, or something that really brings you back to your childhood?
