Peanut butter and jelly breakfast.

Baked an orange cake for my aunt, but didn’t get to give it to her due to the weather. This was taken after Josh dived in. I had a piece too and froze the rest.

I made jerk chicken with saffron rice. I rolled about a pound of organic chicken thighs in jerk spices and this drizzled with honey and olive oil and baked at 375 degrees for about 24 minutes. So, so good!

I would probably wear it outfit anyway, maybe even with my John Cusack pin. This fushia lipstick is perfect. I got it from the Sephora Collection in color Mr. Lover. It stayed on all night and wasn’t dry at all like some lipsticks tend to be. The dress is from Forever 21, it just came in the mail. The jacket from Coldwater Creek. The tights from Kmart. The belt from Old Navy. Modern retro outfit?

Josh playing with my phone settings. And a better photo of the lipstick. I love it, totally wearing this one again!

Lunch at Wildflour in Roanoke. I had the steak salad (yup, there is actually a salad under the mountain of sweet potato fries!) with a killer ginger dressing that our waitress recommended. This restaurant is one of my new favorites. I can’t say enough good things about it.

Josh had the shrimp and avocado quesadilla and a side salad.

Then we popped into the book store next door and where I found these gems. I’d like to do a Julie and Julia experiment with the Chocolate and Zucchini French cookbook. So many good recipes to try! I think I’ll give myself until the end of the year to make them all.

Our final stop was for gelato at Pino Gelato in Roanoke. I had hazelnut and cheesecake, Josh had coffee and hazelnut.

And last, but not least, I lost 2.35 pounds this week, taking me to the 10 pound loss point!

Yummy Valentine’s

We spent Valentine’s lunch at Wildflour in Roanoke yesterday. I like the idea of a late lunch and early dinner to miss the Valentine’s Day crowds. As a result, we got a good table and fast service.

I had the tilapia gordita with sweet potato fries and spicy ketchup. A-maz-ing!

Josh had the club on sour dough bread. Of course, I suggested that we go havsies on everything. Good call, because that was one of the top sandwiches of my life. They make their own bread, how can you go wrong with that? Sadly, we were both too full for one of their bakery made desserts.

If you ever find yourself in southwest Virginia’s largest city, please, please go to Wildflour. You won’t regret it.

After lunch we headed next door for a book sale and then a trip to the Fresh Market. Fancy grocery shopping is a huge treat for me. I’m positive I could easily spend a thousand dollars at the fresh market.

I hope you have a lovely day, Valentine or not, I think it’s a nice day to treat ourselves.
