Baking Up New Projects!

February 25, 2012 7 comments

I think I am running out of ideas for bizarre foods. If anyone has any ideas please feel free to comment below.

With my hectic schedule, I am surprised that I was able to bake not once, but twice!

Good ol’ faithful Vegan chocolate chip cookies. Soft, delicate and VERY good.

The need for quick energy foods in our fridge has been in high demand, so I baked up a batch of apricot, strawberry & oat bars. I added more strawberry jam and 1 extra egg white, so they came out a little more moist than I wanted.

Throughout the week, I’ve been getting groggy in the afternoons. To combat that 3 o’clock slump, I’ve been having earl grey tea with a splash of soy milk. So far this method has been working, however, on a few other occasions, I was so exhausted that I ended up taking naps instead.

I have also been purchasing food from school, which is not healthy for my figure or my budget. Next week, I’ll be eating homemade and nutritious sandwiches instead.

Croissant sandwich: cheese, sprouts, tomato, romaine lettuce.

Kind of like this sandwich! Filled with sun dried tomato pest, mayo, tofurky deli slices, red bell peppers, and mixed greens on sprouted whole Grain bread.

Red, ripe strawberries complemented the sandwich nicely as well as iced coffee.

Another rarity that has been happening—homemade dinners! lately Long and I have been resorting to eating out or frozen entrees. Gasp! So Long cooking, even if it was just one night this week, was a huge plus!

I’m starting a project that I’ve been wanting to for a while. Check back later to find out what I’m working on.

My cardio fitness for this week was low. I squeezed in a little bit of strength and calisthenics here and there. Still limping…more on that later.

Lots of food to go in the car.

Some shopping for clothes. Couldn’t decide if I wanted this vest or not. Kind of feel it’s too flashy… meh.

Helped an R.D. teach a workshop for healthy eating to parents at a local elementary School.
