Run Eat Repeat

My Eating Show Idea SkinnyRunner Slammed Down

Fun

FacebookTweetPin
5 Aug

Hello! How are you? I just got back from a little lunch date with SkinnyRunner. She took me out in exchange for dog sitting and taking out her trash. Hey, times are tough.

Marni is her lil pup. She requires 24 hours a day care because she’s a really fancy show dog and needs to be hand fed duck liver every 3 hours.

That, or I was watching the baby last night and Marni ignored me. One of those.

This morning I woke up to find my GPS watch was dead. Major runner fail!

And when I got home from my run I gave Vegas some milk and made myself eggs and toast.

Today we went out to lunch for Katie’s birthday! She is the best and important enough for me to actually crawl out of my hole and meet for food and talking and stuff. That’s big.

On the way back home from meeting up with the girls I stopped at Trader Joe’s.

I don’t care what happens on my 24 Day Challenge, I just want to call it a success right now for NOT buying this Cookie Butter Cream Cheese. Seriously. Why does Joe tempt me like this?!!??!

But it’s all good because I bought my favorite food instead…

(immediately went home and ate half of it)

Attention SkinnyRunner lady: check out this pickle popcorn!

During lunch I told SR that I am fully confident I could win a fruit eating contest, or really any eating contest. She told me she heard a guy on TV ate 40 oranges and I said I could match that. (Which she is skeptical about.)

Well, she slammed my idea saying a fruit eating contest would be boring.

So, I pitched my next idea… being on a show like Man v. Food but WOman v. Food where I travel around the world eating all the healthy stuff at restaurants. She also said that would be boring.

Now I’m back to the drawing board… aka taking out trash in exchange for salads.

Question: Should I start an eating show like that or nah?

When was the last time you went out for lunch?

      Yeah, I think it would be worth looking into, but Man vs Food has the shock factor. Plus, as good as a salad can look, it ain’t a pizza the size of a table.

      Good news – now that you’ve told me that cookie butter cream cheese is a thing, I’m going to go run out and buy ALL OF IT so you won’t even have to worry about being tempted by it again. You’re welcome.

      Is the popcorn any good?

      And yes to an eating show!

      I’m always convinced that I could eat as much as Adam Richman on Man vs Food. There’s one specific challenge where he attempts to slam down a 6lb burrito and SPOILER ALERT fails miserably. I believe I could win that challenge. Unfortunately we will never find out since the place closed 🙁

      Well maybe you could do webisodes like Vlogs on your blog. =)
      I took myself out to lunch today. Grabbed a chicken roll from the pizzeria. That’s one nice thing about working a block away from Little Italy. #NOMNOM

      I would think a healthy eating show would get boring. Sorry not sorry. Cuz you know when we watch man vs. food we are all like omg, I want that! Not omg, that kale quinoa salad is on my to do list when I go to Portland.

      I went out to lunch on Sunday. Sushi. I’d rather go out for breakfast or dinner.

      The eating show? Nah. But how about the RER/SR show? You two would be a hoot.

      Cookie dough cream cheese? That would be so good with a chocolate cake. Yum!
      I never get out to eat. It’s too hard when I’m at work. When I’m home with the kids, my going out for lunch means we are all going out for lunch. Yours looked delish!
