I got out of class a little early today and had time to meet up with Ben for lunch before I had to get to work.
We’ve been so busy with fixing up the house and me starting school. It was nice to just have a relaxing lunch together and hang out.
My lunch – I ordered the salmon plate. It came with miso soup
and salmon of course!
Instead of tempura I opted for steamed veggies. It was the least I could do after this morning’s scone!
I had some snacks at work:
carrots
SB bar
cheese stick
And I kept dinner light – broccoli and marinara topped with parm
But truth be told, dinner was light so my snack could be heavy – a bag of popcorn, because it tastes best if you hog the whole thing.
Monica and Ben’s Comments of the Day:
While on a walk before dinner Ben wanted me to slow down. He wanted a relaxing walk. I wanted a power walk.
Ben: “Slow down when you walk, it’s good for the soul.”
Monica: “But, walking fast is good for your ass.”
Ben: “I’d rather have a cute soul…”
That salmon plate looks absolutely amazing. I LOVE SALMON. Unfortunately I pretty much never have it :(. Also, great idea, the broccoli with marinara and parmesan!!! So simple, but looks delicious! I think I’ll try that tonight :).
Haha, sounds like you guys had a great time at your lunch date.
Also, I just wanted to comment that since you dyed your hair blonde you totally look like Katherine Heigl (from Grey’s Anatomy).
I like to eat the whole bag too. I feel like you really can’t save it b/c cold popcorn just isn’t good. This is why I have to buy the small bags. I love yours and Ben’s conversations. I wish I would write mine and Brad’s down. They’re similarly silly. He actually has recorded several that he likes to call “the Kelly parables”.
You and Ben are hilarious with your conversations! Although, in this case, I’d have to say I agree with Ben! : )
It’s what’s on the inside that counts anyway! If only photographs cared about my adorable soul.
haha. cute soul. i like that!
that shade of yellow looks AWESOME on you.
hope you guys have a fun weekend!
I wish I could eat popcorn! Soo tasty, yet it tears up my insides. Not fun to be around me when I’m in pain!
That is so cute of Ben, totally sounds like something my husband would say!
hahaha. I walk at a ridiculously fast pace and Billy is always telling me to slow down.
My husband hates popcorn…it’s so weird. But I am kind of down with it since that means it’s all mine!
Ben is adorable! I need to find a man that thinks like that!!
haha you guys are funny! mmmm I love diet 7up every one in awhile. and I ate popcorn last night too!! 🙂
Haha, aww Ben is so cute! 🙂 And so wise! 🙂
Bahahaahah! That is all.
this post reminded me it’s been TOO LONG since i’ve had popcorn! does it go bad – because i have a whole jar in the pantry!!!
