Taco Night!

Lastnight was taco night! I used ground chicken and shrimp (instead of ground beef), soft tortillas, lettuce, tomato, sour cream, taco sauce and on my own I also put a little sun-dried tomato hummus. They were quick, easy and delicious. Later for a snack I had some triscuit thin crisps with a wedge of laughing cow garlic and herb cheese. I was so tired from such a long back to work Monday after the weekend, so I was lazy and didn't work out but I definitely plan on making up for it today! This morning I made sure to pack my gym shoes so I can stop at the gym on the way home instead of going home, getting comfortable and not feeling like going back out. I'm really trying to discipline myself to get back in shape. We'll see how it goes.

This morning was just some low-sugar oatmeal and pineapples.

I'm Back!

I started this blog during the summer and have since...abandoned it. However, my obsession with other people's food blogs (and food itself) has brought me back. I'll be trying to post all the food and other randomness of my life throughout the week. Hope you enjoy!

THE BEST CUPCAKES!

Crumbs bakery in manhattan...yum...yum...yum! The Red Velvet is to die for. The nursing staff at my job were given these as a gift from a patient's family and they were the best.

Pics From Wegmans

The Most SUPER-Supermarket Ever...Wegman's!

Train sets, indian and asian hot food bars, $6 prepared dinners...and any food item your hungry heart desires! Yesterday I had my first Wegman's "experience" and oh boy was I in heaven! Not only were there isles and endless isles of everything delicious from specialty cheeses to fresh baked breads (which they will gladly slice for you), there were also kosher, vegetarian, seafood and dessert counters that will make your mouth water. I think I tried just about everything on the hot food bar (which was extensive) and everything was fresh and delicious. There was even an upstairs with plenty of tables and chairs (and microwaves!) where you can enjoy your prepared meals and look out over the shoppers down below. Fabulous!

New Salad Favorites!

Just wanted to share a few of my new favorite salad fixings! LOVE LOVE LOVE bleu cheese vinaigrette! Dee-lish! After we came home from DC lastnight we just wanted something quick to fill us up, so we went out to the store for salad supplies...lol. I tried a few new things such as the dressing and dried cranberries with glazed walnuts. This salad was definitely a winner with myself...and the kid! :-)

The Spy Dog Cafe

International Spy Museum was great! After taking in all the cool sights of the museum, it was chow time. There were two restaurants located in the museum and we decided on The Spy Dog Cafe...not impressed. The kid ordered the American Grilled Cheese and I ordered a pastrami and swiss on rye, two fountain drinks....the bill was 18 bucks. Not only was it overpriced but it really wasn't worth it. The food was "ok" and there really wasn't much to choose from. I think we'll try Zola's next time we visit The Spy museum.
