Breakfast

Feb 19

This morning was kind of crazy- Sienna decided 6 o’clock was a good time to wake up for the day which is usually when I get up anyways but I enjoy having an hour to myself before the day really starts! I really like having a leisurely breakfast- it is my faaavorite meal!

My breakfast was anything but relaxing this morning! Sienna was being a monkey! I ended up having 2 slices of Sesame Ezekiel toast w/ almond butter and homemade (not be me!) raspberry, mango jam. We desperately need to go grocery shopping so I had planned on having some frozen fruit with soy yogurt as well… that didn’t happen until about 2 hrs later. Haha.

I am also sipping on some tea as I type- Sienna just went down for a nap!!

I’m Back!

Feb 18

I have been such a terrible blogger- I’ll be back at it tomorrow! I forgot my camera at home when we went to canmore so I don’t have any pictures… boo! It was a lot of fun- it went by too fast! We ate out for a lot but I did pretty good. I did end up having some animal products but overall I was conscience of my intake and I feel I did pretty good! We made our own pizza’s on Saturday night using premade organic pizza crust. I made a vegan one and it was a total bust… the cheese didn’t melt and tasted weird (they don’t sell “follow your heart” here!) AND the crust burnt. I ended up having to eat a piece of the “real” pizza- at least it had organic cheese! I also brought lara bars and soy milk juice boxes and ate that for snacks. Today was a holiday (Family Day) and I had a lot of things to do around the house so the blog got pushed aside…! See you in the morning!!

Friday!

I am so excited it is Friday! We leave for Canmore (couple hrs outside Calgary) today and come back Sunday- my mom is taking Sienna! It’s bitter sweet because I will really miss her but I am also looking forward to a few days where I can just focus on myself! Yay! I hope everyone had a fabulous Valentines day, I got a new iPOD nano! I already have an nano but it is pretty beat up- I was so surprised! Canmore was suppose to be our Valentine’s gift to each other- all I got Darren was a stinky card! haha.

I also wanted to share that I had my first dinning experience out since cutting out animal products. We ended up eating at the food court last night since we were at the mall (I needed a swim suit). We went to Opa’s (a Greek fast food type place) and I ordered a veggie pita wrap with hummus instead of tatziki (which I looove), no feta and no seasoning on the wrap (has Parmesan cheese). I was so proud! It wasn’t that hard either- the bread might have had some milk products in it but over all I think i did a good job! Now onto todays breakfast…

When I woke up I had a pink lady apple.

For breakfast this morning i had Ezekiel cereal w/ soy yogurt. I topped it was gogi berries, udo oil and maple syrup. It looks kind of gross but it was really good!
