FroYo makes it all better!

Thanks to my lovely, dry, irritated and sore eyes....
I made the picture small so as to not completely gross everyone out...although it doesn't LOOK too bad.
My diet the past two days has consisted of 2 things (They have to put a breathing tube down your throat while you are under anesthesia, so my throat has felt worse than my eyes the past 2 days!)...
1. Frozen Yogurt (I went through 1.5 containers! oops! hah)
I topped/mixed it with a variety of things...
  • Frozen Bananas/Chocolate Syrup
  • Kashi Heart to Heart Warm Cinnamon Oat Cereal
  • PB (BEST thing mixed in with fro yo!)
  • Clif ZBar
  • Ice Cream Cones...my mom could only find the Jumbo....no complaints! ;)
  • Frozen Berries
  • Cinnamon Puffins

2. Campbell's Select Harvest Vegetable Soup
And look what showed up yesterday after my 4 hour nap (sleeping/closing my eyes feels best at this time!).....FLOWERS from my BFF Alexa!

What would I do without that girl?!Today, although my eyes still hurt, was the first day that my throat was feeling up to real food....

Breakfast was a delightful bowl of:

  • Cinnamon Puffins
  • Multigrain Cherrios
  • Slightly Defrosted Frozen Blueberries
  • Cherries
  • Skim Milk

After lounging around with an ice pack for a few hours, I stumbled into the kitchen with squinty eyes and fixed a scrumptious lunch! I broke out my Alvarado St. Bakery Sprouted Wheat Tortillas and whipped up a quesadilla. Alongside, I had some rutabaga, which I microwaved with some water and doused in Chili Powder.
This crispy baby contained black beans, lentils, cheddar cheese, onions and BBQ sauce! YUM! :D
However, I couldn't turn down this soothing FroYo that was sitting in the freezer!

I washed/reused those little Kemps FroYo contianers and filled them up with my own FroYo...this was a Strawberry & Vanilla Combo from the Shop that I work at... So good! MMM!

Not long after, I enjoyed a big, fluffy, perfectly sweet Penny's Low Fat Desserts Oatmeal Raisin Cookie!

***Legally Blonde 2***
And then I broke into another one of my little FroYo concoctions. This was one that I made yesterday with the Blue Bunny Vanilla FroYo & Chunky PB mixed throughout. OMG! Make this now! The PB got hard and was more like PB Chips or something! YUMMMMM! For dinner, I heated up one of the veggie burgers that I made earlier today (I had to use a different recipe from last time because I didn't have the right ingredients; but I think my last recipe was much better because this one was falling apart!). Either way, pile it high atop an Arnold's Thin with Honey Mustard, Tomato slices & Broccoli Stem Shreds and you have one heck of a sandwich!
I think I tired my eyes out writing this post...I'm going to hit the couch and let them rest a bit, so that I can watch SYTYCD in a few! :D More FroYo may be in my future....there's just something comforting about smooth, sweet FroYo when your curled up on the couch, not feeling your best! I will be back to reading all of your fabulous blogs as soon as possible!

  22. ATTENTION:
    I would like you all to know that this person writing this blog: All About Ashleigh

    http://allashleigh.blogspot.com/

    is a FAKE. She has been impersonating me, stealing my written work and my pictures which is IDENTITY THEFT.

    She refuses to remove my pictures from her blog and if you go through my blogs and look through posts such as this one:

    http://rantingsofafashionaddict.blogspot.com/2009/05/strolling-yorkville-happy-7-years.html

    you will notice that she has stolen these.

    I would appreciate any help such as a comment to her blog acknowledging that this person is a fraud, a post about this....
    This is wrong and I hope you understand how I feel

    Sincerely

    The REAL Ashleigh .....
