Coffee Break

Uncategorized

20 Apr

Remember how I recently decided to add an afternoon coffee break to my life? Well, I was very happy to read that a noon time coffee is the best time to some java! This article says coffee with lunch helps reduce the risk of diabetes. I dunno, it sounds too good to be true, but who am I to question science 😉

This afternoon I snacked on iced coffee, a vitatop, watermelon and a handful of granola. vitatop and watermelon

My Dinner: I had to use my last fake chick’n breast before going out of town tomorrow so I incorporated it into dinner. A massive salad topped with my new fave protein source and half a sweet potato. As good as this looks this dinner is not as good as Ben’s…IMG_7189

Ben’s Better Dinner:  I cooked salmon in olive oil and Old Bay. (I usually just buy the frozen salmon from Costco and am happy with it.)

Then, I topped it with homemade tartar sauce. Easy tartar sauce: mayonnaise, diced pickle plus a dash of the juice, lemon juice, salt and pepper to taste.

Cheesy Parmesan Rice a Roni (the San Francisco treat) as a side. It was amazing and I stole some of course. You guys know salmon is the reason I am not an official vegetarian. salmon

I had one Dove promise for dessert and now I am off to pack for my trip.

See you tomorrow!

    I dont get why you dont just have what your making for Ben? You seem to be proud of the meal and steal some but dont make yourself the same thing when it looks like you want it… I usually end up sprucing up the meals i make for my boyfriend with extra vege’s and less starchy/carby side dish for myself. Stops me feeling deprived!

    The Zune concentrates on being a Portable Media Player. Not a web browser. Not a game machine. Maybe in the future it’ll do even better in those areas, but for now it’s a fantastic way to organize and listen to your music and videos, and is without peer in that regard. The iPod’s strengths are its web browsing and apps. If those sound more compelling, perhaps it is your best choice.
