For the first time in about 3 weeks – I’ve run ever single day I’ve been scheduled to according to my training plan! Woohoo! Granted – I’ve been about as fast as a tank – but it still feels good to be back on track!
Lunch yesterday wasn’t at festive (in a traditional sense) as I’d like – but it sure was green!

Spinach salad and an apple with some BnPB (not pictured). If I could – I would eat a reuben for ever single meal on St. Patty’s Day! I found this dressing at the grocery store this weekend and decided to test it out…

It was really good! You can totally taste the romano – and it’s nice and garlicky! I would HIGHLY recommend it!
Snack – kept with the GREEN of the day – GRAPES!

After work – I hit the gym (although I really wanted to be hitting up the bars), and did a painful 4.5 miles – it’s amazing how much a week off sets you back when you were slow to begin with!
Then I headed over to my parents (Mike was out of town, and I have the maturity of a 4 year old when it comes to sleeping in our house alone) – and I made some MORE green food! Roasted broccoli:

and some Gliding Calm tofu!

I got both my mom and brother to try it (neither were huge fans – but they didn’t hate it either) – so I consider that a victory in my book!
I went to be nice and do the dishes for my momma….and Lando decided to help too…


I guess maybe it’s a good thing we don’t have a dishwasher at home – I’d constantly be pulling her out of it!!!
My dad and brother got festive for the evening (I had to pass) – but they made some Black & Tans – don’t they look pretty?!

I don’t know what it was – but Lando was having NONE of this “sleeping at my parents” business. She was up all night, whining to go play (apparently she didn’t understand that EVERYONE ELSE WAS SLEEPING AT 3AM) – so I finally got up with are 5:45 and headed home. I figured since I was up already – I may as well knock out the 2 miles I had planned for today – and I’m really glad I did! After my run – I started the day with…

DUH…Spicy Oats!
Hope you all had a great St. Patty’s Day – and are having a great week!

I love the pic on your side bar! I tried Mizuno’s about 4 years ago and haven’t gone back.
Way to go with sticking to your running plan. It is so hard sometimes when unexpected things come up, but I find if I go first thing in the morning I am more likely to stick with my plan as well.
Your dog Lando looks so sweet!
Mmm, spicy oats
I haven’t tried them yet, but every time I work on the cookbook and see the pic you sent for them I keep thinking I need to try those next!
Have a great day!

Congrats on the running – that’s great!
I am the same way when it comes to staying alone… last night, Bill stayed up late in the other room, and I was terrified the entire time that someone was in the closet. Ridiculous.
your dog is so cute!

I really love Lando. I have to move to a pet friendly building SOON! I want a dog so badly that I can hardly stand it.
Roasted broccoli is one of my faves. Your dinner looks yummy!

LOL, look at the pup! My dog totally tries to do that, but she’s a smidge too small.
