Three Things I’m Eating This Week:
1. Sunflower Seed Butter! Of Course. On the way home from the gym this morning I busted a bitch made a completely legal U turn so I could hit up the store for my latest obsession.
2. Tilapia! I’ve been craving fish after getting overloaded with turkey the last few weeks.
3. PEARS!!! Harry and David sent me TWO boxes of their magical pears. This would be too much fruit for a normal person, but you guys know I eat fruit like it’s my job.
Well, it is kinda my job – you know, to eat watermelon and blog about it?
Three Pictures I Found On My Phone That I Have No Explanation For:
Three Things You Don’t Know About Me:
1. I don’t own a belt. Isn’t that weird?! I just realized it last week too.
2. I was kidnapped as a child and raised by a Mexican family in California. Ha! Not really, but that’s a little inside joke my fam has.
3. My high school prom date is now a body builder. But like, for real.
He is in a contest on Facebook for Muscle & Body’s best body. If you feel so inclined, please vote for Abe at this link: https://www.facebook.com/MuscleandBody/app_464387280266449
(I’m on the hunt for a prom pic of us, but it was an awkward, chubby time for me. We’ll see if I can dig one up.)
Question: Tell me 3 Things I don’t know about you OR 3 Things You’re Eating This Week.
{ 48 comments… read them below or add one }
3 things I’m eating:
1. Chick’n patties
2. Whole wheat couscous
3. All the chocolate out of my advent calender dipped in crunchy PB….oops:-)
3 Things You Don’t Know About Me:
1) I’m a lefty, and I brag about it like it makes me awesome.
2) I have a masters degree in Library Science. (holla!)
3) I’m really empathetic (a word, yes?).
3 Things I’m Eating This Week:
1) Peanut butter and chocolate
2) Apples
3) Cheese
Funny… I have been told I am the least empathetic person a few people know. But, my friend Susan (who I went to Vegas with) works at a Library!!! So, does that make up for it?
It totally makes up for it! Library trumps ALL!
Besides, if everyone was empathetic, the world would be pretty darn sappy. We need folks to spike the punch every once in a while, right?
1. I’m allergic to sunflower seeds/butter so anytime a blogger talks about it (which is often) it makes my throat itch a little
2. I’m pregnant and due in april, but right now, I’m at that stage where I just look like eat too much and have a gut.
3. I’m already planning a half-marathon and/or triathlon for september/october 2013 to get me back in shape and motivated after sweet baby is born.
#1 is a bummer, but 2 & 3 are great!!!
1. Clementines
2. Oatmeal with a chopped up apple, peanut butter, and soy eggnog all mixed together. GOOD!!!
3. Magnum double chocolate bars. I can only buy one box once in a blue moon, because I’ll eat one every night. Ummm, actually I think I’ve eaten more than one in a day
Oh, I want one of those magnum ice creams now…
The name is unfortunate though. Magnum?? Really?
hahah how COOL about your highschool prom date!! Mine was a sexy Brazilian foreign exchange guy. We were friends and he was lovely!
Pears, I love pears!! I’ve been on a gala apple and grapes eating spree though!
Spicy Brazilian! I like.
I’m participating because I *love* lists. (Actually, as I was reading this post, I thought I should start a blog where all posts are lists. I know, right?! AWESOME! Don’t steal my idea.)
OK… onto the listing! I chose the topic “3 Things You Don’t Know About Me.”
*AHEM*
1. I am terrified of big bugs that fly or jump – especially grasshoppers and those big green flying beetles. I scream and run…and may or may not have abandoned my children in my terror.
2. I’m half black and half white. I appreciate the mixture of my cultural background, but was not always treated nicely by non-mixed girls when I was in high school. Rough times.
3. On to happier thoughts… I changed my phone case last night. The new one is hot pink and black and it makes me happy.
Adios, muchacha!
I’m totally stealing the idea and only writing lists posts from now on
Seriously though, I always say ‘gimme the bullet points version’ or you lose me.
LOL, Grasshoppers are the WORST!!! But I am terrified of those black bugs. Here in California they call them water bugs, but they are cockroaches. They move so fast and I never know which direction they are going. Thank goodness this house only has grasshoppers and crickets….and they all remain outside!!!!
Carbs, carbs and more carbs. I looked in my freezer this morning and found: bagels, waffles, muffins, scones, english muffins, deli flats and breadsticks. HA!
The Kidless Kronicles
Three things you don’t know about me:
1) I was the “bubble gum blowing” champ in the 8th grade..and I still have mad skills!
2) I HATE SNAKES!!!
3) I used to work for an NBA team. I was a great job but so many nights & weekends and 18 hours days that after 11 years, it was time to move on.
Three things I’m eating this week:
1) Pears – me too – just bought some on Monday
2) Smartfood Selects Garlic Tomato Basil Hummus Popped Chips – so good!
3) Tuna Salad – I make my own low fat version.
I think I got a sample of those chips in my last race swag bag, but smashed them all
Matt (my man) has the Jack Black products and really likes them, FWIW! He was a total sucker for an ad/feature that was done in Esquire and ordered a whole bunch of stuff online…he’s worse than me when it comes to “beauty products”!
1.) I have an unhealthy obsession with pickles and cheese, together.
2.) I get scared washing my face in the shower. Who knows what could happen while you so happily wash off the face wash with your eyes closed! I do it as fast as possible.
3.) I was in speech therapy for 6 years as a child for not being able to say my “r”s. If I am super sleepy, or erm…inebriated, I digress to those days. It’s really funny for everyone around me. Lol
Pickles and cheese? I’m oddly intrigued…
I think my brother had the same speech thing, all remembers is being forced to say “cop car” over and over or “cop cah” as he said.
Yep! Sounds the same. I had to say “girls of the world love pearls” over and over. Darn those “rl”s!
I just bought some MaraNatha almond butter. Wow. I like it almost as much as I like icecream. I’m eating a lot of Honeycrisp apples. My fave. And I’m trying to curb my icecream addicting by eating froyo instead.
Wow, was Abe such a cutie at Prom?
He didn’t have those muscles, but he has always been awesome.
3 things I’m eating this week:
1. Pizza
2. Indian lunch buffet
3. four-course dinner
I love the last week of class as an MA student in a ridiculously small program…professors buy you lunch and you get a year-end dinner.
four course dinner! love it!
Things I’m eating:
-Fish (I’ve been on a big fish kick lately)
-Hummus
-Fage/granola/pb2 mush for breakfasts

Three things I’m eating this week.
1) Vanilla Protein Powder (CNP Propeptide)
2) Carbmaster Yogurt
3) My emotions.
(Kinda not kidding!)
Ha! #3. I can appreciate that joke.
Wow, couldn’t be more jealous that you have two boxes of Harry and David pears-they’re SO good. Three things I’m eating this week include 1) Honey-crisp apples (usually with cinnamon and almonds) because they’re the best kind of apple and won’t be around much longer 2) Sautéed spinach- I just recently realized how delicious it tastes cooked with a fair amount of garlic powder (always just ate it in salads) and 3) Pumpkin coffee- I’m a money-strapped post grad so I buy generic coffee brands and mix the grounds with pumpkin pie spice, works like a charm!
Maranatha Dark Chocolate Almond Spread, Better’n Peanut Butter and Nature’s Own Oatmeal Toasters the Cinnamon Raisin flavor!! All three together creates true amazingness!!
That beard lube is so funny!! I don’t even know why it would need to be lubed in the first place!
I think I had that dark chocolate almond spread a long time ago and ate it all in a week (or maybe few days). So good.
Nice!! I finished it in two weeks. I thought about buying bulk and their website has it at $11.89 a 13oz jar. I am shocked. I bought it for half that. Really sad!!
