I had the best intentions today. Really, I did. But, as I looked over the pictures I realize, I Shouldn’t Have…
First off, I shouldn’t have ran because today is a rest day.
Oh wait. I didn’t. Got ya 😉
I take rest days very seriously. I should take church more seriously because I didn’t go today. I should have.
I made pumpkin pancakes this morning for my usual leisurely Sunday breakfast. Topped with almond butter, syrup and a side of grapes.
But, I got a little excited and put way too much pumpkin in the mix. The pancakes didn’t get firm and most of them just fell apart. They were soft and squishy and I shouldn’t have even ate them.
The top p’cake came out nice, but the rest I shouldn’t have even bothered to plate.
I made Ben chocolate chips pancakes. I really shouldn’t have as this was the last of them.
I shouldn’t have purchased the Egg White salad from TJ’s since I have eggs at home and could have made my own. But I’m glad I did 🙂
I packed lunch to go since we were on our way to my mom’s.
We went to my mom’s to get my cat, Vegas. I have been waiting to take him to my home for so long – it was finally time!
But, maybe I shouldn’t have because he just locked himself in the closet and we couldn’t get him out. We staked out the room waiting for him to come out, but it was a bust.
I planned out dinner for the week and figured I would have pumpkin spice roasted chickpeas (a recipe from MamaPea) tonight and leftovers for tomorrow night too.
I shouldn’t have (planned for leftovers) because the whole can is basically gone. Does anyone else eat a whole can of chickpeas in one sitting? I did.
But, I shouldn’t have.
Target had a sale on ice cream today. Like a “buy 2 of these frozen dinners you can make for your husband when you don’t feel like cooking and get the ice cream free” deal. It was too good to pass up, so I came home with Pumpkin Ice Cream!
Maybe I shouldn’t have. I’m still deciding 😉
Ben used his ice cream to coax the cat out of the closet. I wouldn’t have. I don’t share my ice cream. That cat could stay in there for a week for all I care.
I may have also made a borderline blatantly offensive comment when I saw Ben doing this.
I shouldn’t have…
But I don’t take it back.
Kelly says
I don’t share ice cream either, least of all with a cat! 😉
Lisa says
Love Popchips! I’m hosting a little giveaway for some if you want to enter. 😉
I don’t know if I’d like pumpkin ice cream. Last year I had pumpkin pie cheesecake though and it was absolutely amazing!!!
Laura (Starloz) says
oh your blog makes me giggle monica
Amber K says
This blog was so much fun! I have eaten an entire can of beans before too. Oops. 😉
Katie says
I’m glad you finally got to pick up Vegas, even if you had to lure him out of the closet with ice cream. 🙂
Sami says
That picture of you and ben is so cute. I can’t say that I would’ve used ice cream as bait for the cat either. I’m stingy with my frozen treats!
skinnyrunner says

Jamie @ Food in Real Life says
I did the same thing with my pumpkin pancakes the other week. I kept waiting for them to set up, and they were just mush! Vegas is SOOOO cute!
Carolyn @ Lovin' Losing says
Love the picture of you and Ben! You look so cute! 🙂 Can’t wait to meet you for the Foodbuzz Festival.
alison says
Vegas is such a cute cat. I’m glad he finally emerged from his hiding spot. I’m easily swayed by ice cream, too.
I’ve never eaten a whole can of chick peas, but I’ve been tempted on a few occasions.
Lauren says
I think Ben and my hubby are one in the same. On Pancake Sunday, I always get the Pumpkin (which are actually better with more pumpkin) and he always gets chocolate chip. I swear I’m looking at my life when I read your blog! 😉
Love ya girl.

Church IS a nice way to start the week!
Renée (@lowfatpie) says
You kind of have a pumpkin theme going on, eh? Me too, though I am reduced to have to cook the damn thing myself because it’s so hard to find here.
Am really curious about the. Offensive comment ;-). My Frankie loves ice cream too. Actually he would eat anything out of any bowl or plate I’m eating from.
Amanda says
How was that pumpkin ice cream? I had some (different brand) last week and it was not worth the calories. You know I’m REALLY disappointed when I rate it as ‘not worth the calories’….. I don’t think I’ve ever had a bad ice cream before.
Chelsea @ Strawberry Sweat says
Cats are always like that when they are in a new environment! Poor little Vegas. I’m sure Vegas will be fine in a day or two!
griselda says

Katherine @ Left Coast Contessa says
Vegas is so cute! My cat is always trying to swipe my treats too. Who wouldn’t want to swipe pumpkin ice cream?
