WIAW… it’s about time…
I’ve been meaning to participate in What I Ate Wednesday for like… forever. But for some reason I always forget until… like Thursday morning. Super annoying. But anyways.
So this is a Wednesday in the life of me! Sorry for the lower quality pics, I had to use my phone!
Breakfast: Banana Soft Serve which is a pretty typical breakfast, unless something goes horribly wrong (and I forget to stick a banana in the freezer or something). I topped it with a bit of Cascadian Farms Granola. Yummy. This was eaten with a side of not-pictured peanut butter. (It was feeling camera shy. Don’t lie, we all have those days.)
Lunch was a free cafeteria style buffet at work (because I was in an all day meeting. Woohoo free lunch!)
This was a little bit of vegetarian pasta + veggies, fruit salad, and then greens topped with peppers, crasins, parmesan cheese, and a little olive oil (so simple, so delicious). It’s about the healthiest thing I can make in the cafe!
Dinner was on the go, because I had to get to church early to set up the instruments for band practice.I stopped into Subway, and grabbed a veggie sub on wheat, topped with a little fat free sweet onion dressing!
This was eaten with an un-pictured granny smith apple. (It would also have been consumed with a small banana, but I learned the lesson of not packing your soft fruit in the same bag as your gym shoes. Banana was a mushy mess.) Those sandwich artists really outdid themselves on this one. It was quite tasty.
My workouts have been a little sporadic, because my schedule has been so crazy. I’m basically fitting in workouts whenever I can! This morning I did some pilates before work, and my workout buddy and I are going to hit the gym this afternoon for a more intense sweat session. I haven’t been running as much because I’ve been having some knee pain, and I want to make sure I’m not injured for the 10k coming up.
Happy St. Patrick’s Day, loves! I forgot to wear green, so my friend Greg drew a green x on my hand in a meeting this morning. Then we realized it looked like I was underage at a bar. So my friend Carrie tried to make it into a clover. And this is what we ended up with:
I suppose that’s what I get for not wearing green!
Are you wearing green? Do you have any St. Patty’s day plans? Do you ever participate in What I Ate Wednesday?
<3 Liz
haha I pinched my roommate (not hard) this morning b/c she wasn’t wearing green 🙂 I was thinkin gabout getting my supervisor but decided that probably wasn’t a good idea lol. Love the picture your friend drew on you!
The shamrock looks pretty good for being a fluke!!
Your cafeteria food looks healthy and yummy!
I just learned the no packing banana close to other things rule as well while I was traveling. Messy!
Haha one time I packed a banana in my bookbag and it wormed its way to the bottom, got smashed, and then got moldy. (I may or may not have left the bookbag in my car in the summer for like a week.) Probably the grossest thing ever.
hey love! thanks for your comments on my blog. 🙂 and i love browsing yours. everything looks sooooo good. and now i’m hungry. haha
xoxo
I participated in WIAW for the first time yesterday! I finally remembered 🙂
Your ‘eats’ look delicious! I’m still in the process of getting ready (working from home does that to me sometimes) – but I fully intend to wear green and my “support KU” t-shirt! Luckily it’s green!
Soooooo fabulous that you remembered!!! Hoooray! So beyond stoked! And that is awesome that you have a healthy buffet option at work for lunch!!! <3
you're a pro at this already! go liz!!!!

The smashed banana made me super sad because it had previously looked like a really good banana!!
Happy St. Patties day!! Definitely gonna wear some green 🙂
