Friday Theft?

It’s FRIIIIDAAYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!! Do you know what this means?!?! It’s our first Gionino’s Friday in many weeks! Alas, that will have to wait til after work…..

I was having technical difficulties while working on last night’s post — but good news! I was able to add the video I wanted.. Check it out if you want a laugh!

Just for fun this friday, I used snapshots of my personal myfitnesspal page to show the stats on my meals. Yes, that qualifies as “fun” in my mind 🙂

Breakfast #1

Fun fact about me: I steal…. Um… let’s call it “hoard.” Yes, hoard. I hoard the Smucker’s Blackberry Preserves from our free office breakfasts. “Steal” is too strong of a word for single serving preserve packet… Right???

I love these blackberry preserves… They have little bits of seeds and taste awesome:

Today I brought a Sweet Wheat Alternative bagel from home, and then we ended up having free bagels from Panera at work! I stuck to my guns, and went with my Alternative bagel topped with about 1 tbsp of Panera’s low calorie walnut & honey cream cheese, and 1 packet of Smucker’s blackberry preserves:

Check out the comparison on the sweat wheat Alternative Bagel and a whole wheat panera bagel:

Sometimes, life is just about compromises! It’s crazy how different those stats are, and the Alternative bagel actually tastes like a real life bagel (unlike bagel thins).

Sad news though. I only have 1 of my blackberry preserve packets left…. I hope we get some more soon!

Breakfast #2

Was the breakfast I accidently left at home yesterday! It consisted of some dannon vanilla greek yogurt and slice up strawberries:

Perfection!

Lunch

In anticipation of having PIZZZZAAAAAA for dinner tonight, I figured I’d go with a healthy salad for lunch. Today’s salad consisted of:

1/2 bag romaine lettuce
2 ounces chopped up grilled chicken (heated up in the microwave)
1 hardboiled egg
1/2 a green pepper
1 roma tomato
1/4 cup red onion
2 tbsp Ken’s Steakhouse Lite Italian Romano Dressing

Giant salad:

Stats:

Delicious lunch, but lets be honest. All I can think about is pizza now…..

Hello! I’m Mary, a self-proclaimed fervent foodie and carbohydrate connoisseur. This blog is about my life—my passions, adventures, and failures—through food. I’m a bean counting CPA by trade, but my true passion is food. It is the unabashed soul of my being. The history, the culture, the taste, the experience–I am fascinated and enchanted by it all. I devote my free time almost entirely to scouting out delicious restaurants and cooking up new recipes. It makes me especially happy when I can take a recipe and “healthify” it. By this I mean turn it into something healthy and nutritious that still tastes friggin’ delicious. I love to connect with readers, restaurants, and those in public relations, so email me and let’s talk food! Google
