I made these crackers a couple of hours after lunch when I was feeling hungry again. I blame them for ruining my dinner appetite until 11pm! They were really good though. Graham cracker with natural peanut butter, honey and almonds. They were down right decadent!

For lunch I had a plate of my homemade meat sauce, made using organic, grass-fed beef over brown rice noodles. Have you tried brown rice noodles? They’re decently good

Very late night “dinner” of greek yogurt, frozen blueberries, passionfruit/cherry/blueberry jam, graham cracker crumbles and a drizzle of honey. High protein dinner! I can’t believe a cup of whole greek yogurt has 23 grams of protein. It’s crazy.

I’m off to finish some work and get ready for a Valentine’s Day adventure with Josh. We were originally going to spend the weekend away, but I had to go and trip over a dog. So today will be spent at the movies, having lunch and going to the fresh market. There will probably be coffee and books in their too. I’m so excited!

Sunny Monday

Good Morning! Today’s breakfast includes: oatmeal toast with organic butter, one fried (over hard) local egg, and a quick fruit salad of mandarin oranges, frozen blueberries and almond slivers. I need more of these one minute fruit salads in my life.

Mondays and most weekdays often feel like I’m playing catch-up and trying to run a marathon while juggling design projects, house work, cooking, blogging and all of my other project deadlines. I always feel most productive on weekends. I think this is because no one wants anything from me on Saturday or Sunday. When Monday hits, I feel like I am debating what to do and where to start and making sure I meet deadlines. Breathing!

I’m writing out my successful week task-list right now and continuing to eat well and exercise are top priorities. My urges to overeat or eat outside of hunger have weakened these past couple of days. It’s a nice relief.

Time to get busy!

What does your successful week look like?

Raw Fudgey Brownies

Today’s lunch was a chopped salad using up all of the vegetables I prepared a week ago. I have to say (again!) that prepping vegetables for the week increased my vegetable consumption by so much. I was able to put this salad together in less two minutes. And best of all, it was delicious That dressing. Sigh.

For dessert I enjoyed a raw (my cocoa wasn’t raw) brownie made using this recipe from Jenny Cornbleet. I substituted Majool dates for regular pitted dates and raisins for the cherries. I also added a little too much water to mine, but they were still really good. If you like fudge brownies, you’ll like these. Bonus: they take just a couple of minutes to make and they keep you full for hours and hours.

Dinner was a meat sauce that I made a big batch of for the week served on oatmeal bread. It tasted a lot like a better manwich (manwich? is that it?). A side of carrots with the last of my dressing.

And now I watch the Grammys to see this pretty lady perform:
