Still feeling the glow from yesterday’s amazing Easter dinner! 
Someone asked recently (and I apologize for not answering in the comments – I forgot!) – I think it was Learn 2 Play – if I was still crazy bag lady (click). Actually, lately I’ve been able to downsize my stuff a bit,
but today…it was the return of the crazy bag lady!!!
Probably because I had ALL THIS in one of the bags! 😆
Seriously, my shoulders were not happy, though.
For Starbucks Monday I got a tall vanilla soy latte. So yum!
The funny thing about all the things I brought to work today is that I didn’t eat much of the food I packed. Having recently suffered from a food-poisoning-like experience…one gets skittish when food is a wee bit old. So, I opted to get some vegan/GF chili out. I also grabbed a gatorade because I’m wondering if my electrolytes are low from last week’s lack of food/drink intake. I was feeling a little dizzy today.
Kashi crackers with a bit of hummus leftover from hubby’s beer-brewing party.
I attempted to microwave-steam some broccoli with a ceramic bowl and a paper towel. It didn’t work. Next time I will use a plate to top my bowl. The broccoli got a little nuked. 😆
I also had a Blueberry Almond bar and some Ginger tea.
Yogi tea quote of the day: “Every heartbeat creates a miracle.”
I tried to eat the biggest orange ever! I couldn’t quite finish the last 2 slices.
Zumba fuel was an Odwalla Superfood bar.
Then, I had about 1 1/2 fabulous hours of ZUMBA!!! I was feeling a bit off but pushed through and had an awesome work out! 🙂
Then, we had a birthday dinner for Kat at a local Mexican restaurant, complete with sangrias and margaritas. Kicking myself right now for not getting any PEOPLE photos! Doh!
Table-side-made guac.
Check out Megan’s amazing dinner. I want to get this next time!!!
I split some chicken enchiladas with Alex. Thank goodness, too…this was HALF! I couldn’t even finish half of this!
I did, however, save room for cupcakes. You guys know me! 😉
Megan and I selected similarly decorated cupcakes. She said they were “boy and girl” cupcakes. heehee
Mmmm…cuuuuppppcaaaaakkkeeee.
Happy Birthday Kat!!!!!!!!!!!!
I came home just in time to practice some zumba songs (I know…probably not the best idea after Mexican) and watch the end of the Duke Butler game. While I’m normally a big fan of the “underdog” and I think the Butler team played great, I have to cheer for hubby’s fave team – DUKE!
Congrats to Duke on winning the National Championship tonight!
Who’s your favorite (or your SO’s favorite) basketball team (can be a college/pro/any type)?
Lovely cupcakes! So cute. 🙂
Not a basketball fan! But I’m not american so… 😛
Basketball is the one sport we don’t follow.
Now I’m craving guac and sangria, thanks! 😉
Wow those odwalla superfood bars are really green. I haven’t had that kind before. If they are that green they must be super good for you. 🙂
i might be really un-American in this, but i don’t really like basketball (GASP!) my dad used to force me to play it and i just never loved it, so now i try to stay away if possible! although i will say i was going for the Nuggets last year during the play-offs 🙂
Jeez, Louise!
Amazing eats, girl!
After reading this, I decided I need to try hummus ASAP… Looks so good!
😀
Have a wonderful week!
Brazilian XOXO´s,
Gabriela
i had to do a double take wheni saw your rolling drawers at work… we have the exact same ones! how funny
I love bags!!!
I am also a total bag lady. I’m also a cat lady. It is a very bad combination in a single lady. 🙂
And, I grew up a tarheel fan (my mom is an alum)…but went to Duke. So I kinda have to cheer for them now.
Lol. I’m a bag lady too, no worries.
Have you seen epiphanie bags? They’re stylish camera bags (for DSLRS). So you can use it as a camera bag/purse and with the compartments prob fit your lunch in there too, esp if you’re not toting a bunch of lenses 🙂
Too funny! 😀
Given how much fresh food you take to work, it’s no surprise you need an extra bag! But the benefits of bringing your own healthy foods (looking/feeling great and saving money) totally makes up for the shoulder strain.
And staring at your cupcake photos at 9:30 at night is very bad for my willpower.
Is that superfood bar any good? it doesn’t LOOK good lol–but then again–I have never thought the green monster drinks LOOK good but I have heard that they taste good 🙂
What a great day of eats! I love the look of that blueberry almond bar! YUM!
Looks like a great birthday celebration!
I use another inverted bowl on top of the first bowl when I steam veggies in the microwave – works great.
