pepperidge farm – Fervent Foodie

I put ketchup on my ketchup

While on vacation in Charleston, we came across several touristy shops selling t-shirts with funny sayings. Jarrod seriously contemplated buying me this T-shirt:

Hahaha… I do use ketchup quite frequently. I’m just a class act like that 😉

Breakfast #1

Last in the trio of eggwhite/turkey sausage scrambles I made Sunday night… Served up with a dollop of you-know-what 😉

I started breakfast #2 off with some Blueberry Cho-cho-chobani:

Then I added some strawberries (in my hunger-tinged excitement, I forgot to use my flash…)

Lunch

The turkey meatloaf I made last night was so yummy, I immediately had a craving for a meatloaf sandwich! Needless to say, I was SUPER excited about my lunch today.

I sliced up one of the turkey meat muffins:

I placed the cold slices of meatloaf on a Pepperidge Farm 7 Grain Deli Flat, and then added the star of the show: KETCHUP.

That’s what actually made me think of the ketchup on ketchup T-shirt. Even though my turkey meatloaf had ketchup mixed in and was thoroughly basted with ketchup before baking, I still needed to put some ketchup on my leftover meatloaf sandwich 😀

Match made in heaven:

Heinz — if you’re looking for a new “face” for your ketchup, have your people contact my people. ferventfoodie@gmail.com 😉

On the side, I also had a cup each of roasted cauliflower and broccoli:

One AMAZING lunch:

Makes me feel like a kid again 🙂

Side note

Over the weekend I made the BF a beautiful banana granola parfait. Apparently he liked it so much, he decided to recreate it in my workweek absence:

I love that he even went the extra mile and put it in a pretty glass. Sometimes ya just gotta treat yourself, am I right?

QUESTION: What is your FAVORITE condiment? OR do you like ketchup on your ketchup?

TGI Freakin F!

Today I feel like a chicken with no head. Let me recap the last 24 hours in 13 key points:

1.) Went shopping for new pants after work yesterday, ended up buying three shirts. (I still consider this a success)

2.) Ate a Luna Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Bar for energy before my interval training.

This was pretty tasty. It had more of a candy-bar like feel to it than the normal Luna Bars, but I think the taste of the regular bars are better than these protein bars. Worth a shot, definitely better than the Larabar Flop earlier in the week, but I’ll stick with the regular Luna Bars from now on!

3.) Got locked out. Super.

4.) Dinner consisted of a cold leftover turkey burger (luckily I had brought this with me to work and subsequently took it with me shopping). Yes, I took the burger into the mall… Haha 🙂

5.) Phone died (again). Super!

6.) Completed Day 3 of interval training. Whoop!

7.) Set alarm clock (since phone is broke).

8.) Turns out alarm was never changed for daylight savings. Woke up 1.5 hours late. Super.

9.) While making coffee, realized I never unplugged the george foreman after making my breakfast wrap yesterday. Wow, Mary. Wow.

10.) Ate a Blueberry Bliss luna bar on my way into work. And it really was blissful! Things started to perk up after that.

11.) Got to work 1 hour late. Craaaapppppp…

12.) Strawberry Oikos Greek Yogurt with blueberries and Bear Naked Maple Pecan Granola 🙂 Yummmm….

13.) Takeout lunch from Jimmy Johns. It’s starting to feel like Friday now 😀

Giant beach club unwich, no mayo, add onion and giant pickle:

Me after finishing my grub:

Blurry, but at least I’m smiling!

*deep breath*

In through the nose, out through the mouth….

😀

Plans for the weekend:

Get my frickin phone fixed
Yard Work (obviously)
New digital camera!!!! YAY!!! Super excited about this one.
Fun with friends Saturday night
Try new recipes? I sure hope so.
R&R? Mandatory.
