Confession Friday. In case I die this weekend, I want to go with a clean conscience…
1. Sometimes when I see Vegas is about to use the litter box I go to the door and let him go outside. He always wants to go outside, so he gets excited and I trick him into using the outdoor toilet.
2. The other day I was about to head out for a long run and I saw the tamale lady on the corner. So I bought a dozen and took them back home to put in the fridge. But before I ran I ate one. And a half.
Maybe two. (Yes my stomach was cool with it, I’m Mexican this is our fuel!)
(This was a picture from another day with an egg on top. I didn’t take a picture of this most recent tamale fun as I was standing by the counter scarfing them like a wild animal.)
3. Don’t call me a torta! (inside joke.) I saw this sign at church this weekend. Are they giving out sandwiches and I didn’t know?
4. I have a pack a day problem…
5. The Roxican went back to my mom’s but I miss her. Mostly because I talked to her and she kinda listened. Vegas just looks at me annoyed.
6. I recently broke my addiction to chocolate (mostly, kinda). I hadn’t had any around for a while and every day I’d intend to go buy some but I kept forgetting – or, it would be so late when I wanted it I would wait until the next day.
Well, I fell back off the wagon since Bark Thins sent me a care package. This stuff is so good – real dark chocolate and almond pieces. Love.
7. I drank coffee during the 24 Day Challenge.
Someone asked about this so I wanted to share (although I might have mentioned it before).
The 24 Day Challenge officially says to drink Spark when you wake up. But, I still drank an iced coffee before my run and then would drink the Spark when I got back. I don’t add a lot of high calorie things to my coffee so I figured it was fine.
(you can get more info on the challenge here)
8. I’m so tired. Why do I insist on reading the entire internet before I go to sleep?!!?!
Now I must pack and get ready for a lil road trip this weekend!
I’ve gotta try tamales when I visit US next. I kept reading your posts on them and I’m curious.
Confession–I may have drank too many vodka tonics last night.
Question–I tried Spark yesterday and about an hour later I felt gross and nauseas. Anyone else have this happen to them?
Hold up – I need more information on this street side tamale lady. I always end up at Tula.
Confession: making Pumpkin Spice things was totally my idea. I thought of it years ago, but then just kind of forgot about it until everybody started making everything be Pumpkin Spice flavored. WHY DON’T I GET THE CREDIT I DESERVE?
I forgot all about pumpkin spice gum! I don’t love the trident layers gum but extra makes a good pumpkin spice gum. I chew the starburst gum all day long!
What color is on your nails? Love it!
I wish I had a tamale lady!
Oh the confession part …. When I got home from my run, instead of eating dinner, I ate three (I started with 1, then I ate 2, then I was like … I already blew it, might as well eat another) chocolate chip cookies … with milk. I swore I would never do that again .. until the next day. These cookies need to be gone!
Confession #2 reminded me that I saw some corn husks on the ground of my gym’s parking lot last week. So you are definitely not the only one that eats tamales before a workout.
