Care to know some random fun facts about me?
If the answer is YES – check out today’s post in Brandi’s “Behind The Blog” series – GDW is the feature
Food yesterday was ALL over the board – from healthy, to terrible (but tasty!), and everything in between!
Breakfast – Healthy!

Amazing Grass Kidz Wild Berry packet + Mango + Strawberry

I haven’t used mango in a smoothie in a while, so I forgot what a creamy quality it adds – I love it!
Lunch – Terrible, but Tasty!

My department decided to order Danny Boy’s and (conveniently and sweetly enough) Mike had given me lunch money – so I got right in on the order!
The Buffalo Chicken Woogie with fries!

I only made it half way through before my stomach started to hurt – but it was totally worth it! It was soooo good!
When I got back to my desk, I had an awesome treat waiting for me…
…but more on that once I’m finished reading the book!
By the time I finished up at work, got my butt kicked in Power Class by Heather, came home, walked the dogs, and blogged – it was almost 9:30 – and I hadn’t eaten dinner!
Apparently – when I’m starving – true inspiration strikes!
Dinner – In between Healthy and Terrible

Enjoy with veggies, pretzels, pita, tortilla chips, you name it! I went with tortilla chips!
Have any fun plans for the weekend??
We have Phantom of the Opera tickets tonight, and I have a secret road trip tomorrow – which I’ll be able to tell you about on Sunday!

yum to everything in this post
and I can’t wait to hear about your weekend! Sounds like it will be fun.
My weekend will probably look like this:
new sourdough bread recipe trial
running
biscuits tomorrow morning
cleaning
laundry
buying/packing for Honduras!!! Sneaking up on me.
Should be fun – crazy, but fun.

The crab dip looks fabulous! As does your lunch! I’m a sucker for french fries.

Why’d you have to mention Danny Boys??? I’ve been fighting my craving for their garlic bread/rolls for weeks!! I might have to cave……thanks a lot.
I have fun plans this weekend, too!

Oohhh your lunch looks SO good! I am trying to lay off of the “I can eat whatever I want always” attitude as the pants are a little snug, but I have a weakness for fries!
Boston is having a food truck festival this weekend, and I am pretty excited about it!

OMG, I love your buffalo crab dip! Right up my alley.
I just thought of you because I am making my buffalo chicken chili for dinner and just poured about 1/2 a cup of the liquid gold into my pot!
Hope you had a great weekend!

I am obsessed with Trader Joe’s Spinach Artichoke dip. That stuff is so addicting and I have to scoop out portions to keep myself from eating the entire bowl.

I think I like “terrible” food more but eat the healthy stuff most of the time.
Never heard of a woogie????… but I love saying that: Woogie, woogie…like Wookie???
Phantom is my favorite.
but I love the music.
My hubby can’t stand it
