I apologize for going all MIA on the blog world for the last week or so. As I mentioned on my last post, I’ve been sick. The nasty bug turned out to be a nasty virus, which even settled in my eyes, causing my eyes to become blood red, painful, and not so attractive. But now, thanks to some antibiotics and medicated eye drops, I’m feeling almost like myself again. Almost. And I’ve learned that cold medicine knocks me out completely (even the “daytime” medicine) and cough medicine makes me feel like I’m drunk. Let’s just say, it’s been interesting… but that’s a story for another day. Anywho, before we get back to normal postage, I’ll share what I’ve been enjoying lately 🙂
A cereal mix of Kashi Heart to Heart, Quaker Oatmeal Squares, banana, chia seeds, and low fat milk.
A delicious smoothie with Jay Robb’s vanilla whey protein powder, frozen banana, frozen strawberries, and milk.
It didn’t blend well but it was soooo good!
Something I’ve been hoarding for a while..
And waffles, of course.
A yogurt bowl with Greek yogurt, peaches, Kashi Heart to Heart, and granola.
A waffle sandwich before a pool day with my girls..
A pb and J! Only in waffle form.. which makes it THAT much better!
A seriously needed energy boost before work..
And something that looks/sounds weird but was AMAZING!
TJ’s instant blueberry oats mixed with Greek yogurt and topped with granola. Kind of like instant overnight oats!
OIAJ!
I really don’t remember what was in it other than oats..
A delicious giant pancake made with cake mix, TJ’s mutligrain pancake/waffle mix, and sprinkles.
More waffles! This time blueberry.
And then the first real dinner I’ve cooked for my man.
Pot roast with mushrooms and onions over homemade mashed potatoes and corn on the cob.
I apologize to the vegetarians out there but it was GOOD! Not to toot my own horn but it more than pleased my meat and potatoes man 🙂
And then sickness came.. and I mostly resided on this..
Publix whole wheat toast with peanut butter and strawberry jam. Honestly, not much else was appealing while I was the most sick. That and Spongebob Fruit Snacks. Don’t ask..
I also managed some waffles at some point..
More toast…
And a kick… butt…smoothie made with plain greek yogurt, peanut butter, a frozen banana, Jay Robb’s vanilla protein powder, and milk.
It was SO creamy and tangy yet sweet. Delicious! I had a very similar one today that turned out like banana soft serve <- INCREDIBLE.
Breakfast today…
A yogurt mess with a Raspberry Chobani, banana, and Udi’s Gluten Free vanilla granola.
And since I was on my own for diner tonight while my boy was at work, I picked up some sushi from my local Publix while grocery shopping. YES, they have FRESH MADE sushi not 2 miles from my apartment! Heck. Yes.
There were TONS of options including a roll with mango on it but I went with the spicy trio… I think it had spicy crab, shrimp, and salmon.
SO good!
Have a great night loves! Regular postage shall resume tomorrow 🙂
“Life is a constant journey and we may not always know where it is we are going
or indeed where it is we truly want to go…
But, be present and listen to the heart; follow true dreams and be ready for anything.
Sometimes even when we feel we are going the wrong way
we end up in places we never dreamed or believed possible!!
Because, when we hold onto our true self;
we will never truly lose our way.”

Ahhh, I love pb & j. And on waffles it sounds amazing. But, what sounds the BEST out of all of these pictures is the cake mix pancake!!! How much cake mix did you need to use to make it taste like rainbow cake? 🙂 I need to buy some sprinkles. They seem like fun!
And, you are LUCKY, SO LUCKY to have sushi within 2 miles of you. The closest place to me is 45 minutes away. BOO!
Living with your man sounds lovely. 🙂 I am glad that you are in a wonderful and rewarding relationship. I am looking forward to when I can feel that way again.

I use about 1/3 cup of the pancake mix and 2 tbsp or so of the cake mix with an egg white (or a flax egg) and a bit of milk. Greek yogurt is great in them too, and of course, the sprinkles!

LOVE the waffles! If you ever change your blog name – it should be “Waffle Girl” or something like that…”Waffling Around”…um…”Healing With Waffles”…? Why not?! 🙂
