What I Ate [to celebrate] Wednesday!
Remember when I tweeted that I had good news but I could say what? Well now I can say it 🙂
I got promoted at work!
I’m pretty excited about it! I don’t talk about my job much on here (because, that’s kind of blogging 101 of things NOT to do) but I love my job (I work in marketing) so I’m excited to take on some new responsibility.
Anyways! So it was a fun day at work, of course. That’s why this is a celebratory What I Ate Wednesday!
Go join the party over at peasandcrayons

I started off with a fun breakfast:
Classic smoothie: 1 banana, 1/2 cup soymilk, 1 tbsp peanut butter, handful of ice, stevia and chia seeds. (I smeared the peanut butter around the inside of the glass!)
Morning snack:
I’ve been eating those peanut butter heady goo balls in the morning. Just a couple are a great pick me up! I usually go to the gym during lunch so these are the perfect thing to eat before a workout.
Lunch:
My lunches have been pretty simple, because I’ve been packing frozen lunches for the most part. It’s saving money, and if you get good ones… it’s pretty healthy!
These are only a couple of bucks, and they taste great! I can eat it quickly, after a lunch time workout, so it’s perfect!
Afternoon snack:
I love these. I love them so much, I don’t buy them very often because I can eat a box way. too. fast. But they’re pretty decent for you, and they’re easy to throw in my work bag for when I get the afternoon munchies.
Dinner:
What better way to celebrate than with Mexican food? We went to Su Casa, one of my favorite local Mexican places.
I had a veggie burrito, without the sour cream and cheese. It was so delicious! Peppers, onions, refried beans…. deliciousness! I forgot to take a picture until I was done eating… so you’re only seeing the half that went into a to-go box! (Obviously, the restaurant lighting made for some horrible picture taking.)
Dessert:
No celebration is complete without dessert! We took a trip to Sweet Frog for some fro-yo.
Enough said.

I love your idea of smearing the pb around the glass with the smoothie too, so genius!
Thanks!! And smearing the pb around makes it feel like I’m eating it out of the peanut butter jar 😉 Which everyone knows is the best!
