I’m going going, back back

to Cali, Cali… :cool:

I’m not really going BACK, since I’ve never been before – but you get my point.  I’m gangster ;)

Anyhow – as you are reading this – I should be somewhere high in the skies!   In my absence – I thought I’d catch you up on yesterday!  (It’s not as exciting as it sounds – roughly 14 hours of my day was spent in front of a computer screen…:shock:)

Breakfast – more vanilla yogurt and POM, but this time I switched things up and used Honey Nut Cheerios as the cereal!

For lunch I tried to finish off the rest of my taco leftovers, by making another TACO SALAD!

Doesn’t that combo look fantastic?

I even brought 2 types of dressing – HOW COULD ANYTHING GO WRONG?

I’ll tell ya how!  :(   I used the wrong fridge – which was set so cold – my lettuce totally FROZE!  So my first bite was ICY, and SLIMY – not a nice combination at all! :(

Luckily – the cafeteria was still open, so I headed down to grab some lettuce there (of course – they only had spinach!  I mean – everyone knows a taco salad is 20 times better with iceberg lettuce as opposed to spinach – but hey – beggars can’t be choosers! :wink: )

Take 2:

I ended up just eating the chicken as a side!  :mrgreen:

My snack wasn’t really a snack – it was more like early mini-dinner, since I ate it at 5!   One of my last Spooky Smore’s (atop my never ending list of “things to take care of before I leave” list!)

My darling husband called me at work to say he wanted to treat me to dinner so I didn’t have to worry about cooking before I left (love him!) – so we decided on pizza!  He ordered it, I picked it up on my way home!

MMMMMM Papa Johns!!!

Hardly gourmet – but really damn good!  :grin:   And no – I didn’t eat the whole thing – but I did eat straight out of the box! Why dirty a plate? :razz:

As soon as I had my last bite of dinner – I started packing!  I think I did a pretty good job – and I even remembered to bring lots of snacks so I don’t have to rely on airport food!  :grin:

I was lucky enough to have a little helper!  Doesn’t it look like she’s ready to go?  As if the bag is her’s, she is just waiting on me?  :lol:   Love her!  (I’m gonna miss her and Mike so much!!!)

I’m hoping to be able to blog at least once while I’m in San Fran, (if not twice!)  :mrgreen:

However – it shouldn’t make any difference to you, because you will be in good hands while I’m away!!   :wink:

When I put the call out for guests bloggers a few weeks ago – I got an awesome response, and some really great guest posts!  Ya’ll are gonna love the guest posts I have in store for you!  :cool:

Have fun in Cali!

(I hardly ever use plates with pizza either – no need!)

Yeah, good call on bringing snacks, airport food is awful! I realized last time that if I was on a diet, I would FAIL at an airport. Even just eating something healthy, period, I failed. IT’s impossible. So frustrating.

Ohh your breakfast looks so pretty! But UGH I hate when my fridge freezes lettuce! If the bag gets too far in the back of the fridge, it’ll freeze. It’s so disgusting. Have fun in San Fran!
