tv or hour nap?

I woke up to Kyle getting ready for work (he’s normally so quiet, but lately, not so much)…so (again) I embraced it and got the day under way.  Unlike Kelly, I chose tv over napping 🙂

I went craaaazy with my coffee this morning, frothed vanilla silk and a stevia/cinnamon combo sprinkled on top.  Um, this is my heaven.

Brekkie: Fench toast with “egg” beaters and Alvarado street bread…with a lot of Earth Balance melted on top.

Lunch: Sammie on Alvarado street bread with sabra hummus, greek yogurt, tofu AND smart deli “turkey” plus some romaine

I love tofu and hummus together.  Actually, I sabra hummus is pretty much heavenly on anything and everything…

PM snack: dried fruit and tea + apple

I was going to go for a run in the park since it was super sunny earlier in the day, but the wind factor made it pretty much impossible to enjoy the sunny (but still cold) weather.  So gym it was.  GYM stats:  elliptical 60 min, spinning 20 min, tread mill walking cool down 10 min

FYI – my cute/hilarious BF signed off a mid-day email to me today “vegan love, K”    haha, he cracks me up  🙂

Dinner:  BBQ seitan with salad

Salad contained romaine, brocc slaw, and tomatoes, with Fay-yeh and the seitan on top

All mixed up, don’t know what to do…

And here’s plate full numero dos

Dessert: dried figs and carob covered raisins (I mean waht did you expect…)

At what point does this go from ordinary addiction to serious obsession (slash problem).

I got crafty again and started stuffing carob raisins in things 🙂

I also had a couple glasses of delicious chocolate soymilk.  It’s like liquid love…

Are there certain foods that you eat that your fam/friends/S.O. think are totally weird or gross?  As you all know, I love love love dried fruit, but Kyle’s not a fan, which I just don’t understand.  Other than that, he’s pretty good about being open to trying new vegan dishes and/or non-meat alternatives.  He does think it’s weird that I put greek yogurt on just about everything…and he definitely poo-poos my vegan “cheese” (I don’t think he could live without queso)!  I’m still working on getting him to try carob…

Happy Friday the 13th – I was pretty cautious all day (because I’m crazy superstitious)

Ok, gotta get to bed, I’m working all weekend AND monday.  BOO!!

    Haha I just posted the exact same line as you..that I can eat hummus on anything! It is the best! Let’s see, my boyfriend thinks I’m weird when I eat goat cheese! I always try to make him have some but he refuses! I am sure he would love it though! How could you not!

    Don’t tell him it’s carob and just tell him to eat it!!! LOL!!! He won’t be skeptical at all, until you reveal it that it’s actually carob! mwahahahah. lol.

    I did that with cookies, and everyone thought there were chocolate chips. =D

    coffee sounds amazin'!

    Oh gosh there are so many foods that I eat that my family do not eat. They all thing I am totally weird. They all eat meat and don't really care for the health foods, such as flax, whole grain bread, organic, transfat free, so I'm like an alien to them. Every time I eat they are always staring at me. I feel like saying sometimes "Get a grip, I don't eat the same foods as you do." but I don't becaue that's pretty mean.

    ahem moving on …. Happy Valentine's Day Elise!! <3

    I don’t think your combos could EVER become problematic. They’re so freakin awesome! I wish I could find carob raisins here! I can make my own, I guess – that’s not hard! 🙂

    “All mixed up, don’t know what to do…” Oh.No.You.Didn’t. LOVE that song 🙂

    Haha at Vegan Love! Too cute!

    Weird foods: my mom eats a lot of the same food I do but my dad won’t even touch wheat bread let alone hummus!

  8. Nutritious is Delicious

    All of that food looks fabulous! Love the coffee especially!
