Breakfast: ThinkFruit Chocolate Pomegranate Power
Meh....it was ok, but it was a little to compact and gummy. Instead of chocolate, It was like a chocolate gummy bear or jelly bean. No trouble finishing it, but probably won't buy it again!
Ok so the verdict:
The Boy in the Striped Pajama's: Saddest Movie Ever! However, it really made me think...and to think there are some people out there who don't think the Holocaust happened?!?! The ending is horrible! Uh, so sad.....yet I would recommend it!


Fireproof: I have seen it before, but here's my review. BEST MESSAGE EVER and has some really funny times in the Firehouse and workplace.....and some really sad moments....and some really sweet moments! The acting reminds Alexa of "Lifeftime" movies and I have to agree, but to tell you the truth: who doesn't like a little "Lifetime" from time to time!? haha

Alexa and I went to Jason's Deli for lunch and I got a huge bowl of Southwestern Chicken Chilli....Followed by 2 MASSIVE Ice Cream Cones! :D

We then went to the store and I got:
*Bananas
*Apples
*Yogurt
*Laughing Cow Swiss Cheese
*Carrots (to accompany the cheese, of course!)
*Sara Lee Whole Wheat Bread
*A new fangled item: (which I am bringing with me to the library in a few, so I will let you know how they are!)
[EDITED: there is probably about 12 or so whole pieces of basically caramel corn and sure there is a slight cookie flavor that is pleasant, BUT overall....It leaves your teeth feeling sugary and is WAYYYY tooo small! Sure it has added vitamins....take a multi-vitamin if that is a concern....Do Not Recommend!)
*Truvia (after all of our Artificial Sweetener talk, I decided to try something a little more natural (per-say) than Splenda.....I'm always up for trying new food products!)
I decided to make a little PBJ with the heel of bread for a snack.............I combined the beloved PB & Co Cinnamon Raisin Swirl spread with a Blueberry and Cherry Preseves (with plump cherries and blueberries in the jar). The PBJ half that I just ate tastes 180 degrees different from my usual PBJ with chunks of fruit and that amazing PB! Maybe my scrumdidlyumptious PBJ's this week will make up for having 3 Tests?!
Having a good Sunday? I hope! :D

  6. Got the Luna bars! The way you packaged them was adorable, and they taste pretty awesome. Not as good as Lemon Zest, but close.

  7. When I first read the name of that bar, I thought it sounded amazing... but now I know the truth! I hate when things sound amazing but they end up being disappointing.

  9. Hey there!

    I see that you're passionate about eating healthy and trying new foods. I'm not sure if you've heard but Stonyfield Farm makes Oikos Organic Greek yogurt. It's great for cooking with or even just as a super filling snack! Oikos is also the only organic Greek yogurt on the market today. I'd love to send you some free coupons to give Oikos a try. If you're intersted just shoot me an email at kdrociak@stonyfield.com and let me know where to send them along with the name of your blog.
