I am so excited to do my first WIAW post for this blog–even though it’s not exactly typical for me, since I am on vacation!
This morning was delicious:
a towering bowl of apples topped with ezekiel granola, greek yogurt, cranberries, cinnamon, and of course with an almond butter spoon!
I am Über happy because I got to go for a swim in an outdoor lane pool today! A person on twitter hooked me up with a pass to the private facility–I love social media!
Bring on the one piece tan! I downed another apple (three baby ones this morning, total) before the swim and had a banana when I was finished. I like to eat, eat, eat apples and bananas! I like to…you know where this is headed!
After I got home, I was ravenous so I ate my leftover sea food pasta from Monday night’s outing, which I added some extra spinach to to bring in a bit more nutrition. It was white pasta, but like I said, this is vacation! I also added extra parmesan, obvs!
I ate more unphotographed fruit as my afternoon snack #1 — grapes! We were en route to go golfing and got lost, so I ate a bit out of stress but if it’s grapes, whatever…I’m going with it!
On the course, I had my go to golfing fuel: a Coors Light and a LARA bar. This was my first time trying the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip flavour. LOVED IT, maybe cuz it was all melty and wonderful?
Today, my golf game got better with the beer. Sips to swing ratio?
We just got home and instead of waiting for pizza and forcing my dad to make a part of it veggie for me, I went ahead and had my own acorn squash/almond butter/spinach/raisin mix that I eat probably too often! Oh well, it was perfect. The 3 extra swipes of almond butter I had weren’t too bad either 
…oh lordy. Nut butter tasting…on my habit list to deal with. Maybe when I’m home from vacation?
I even had dessert…Newman’s Own organic chocolate. yum. YUM. yummmm! Yay for mini desserts that end things perfectly…sweet tooth satisfied!
I love vacation!
Now I’m going to settle in with a book or maybe do some more work on this blog, cuz I love it but it can only get better from here!
What was the best thing you ate today?
Have you tried Newman’s Own Organic chocolate?
What’s your fav LARA bar flavour?
Cheryl, I must tell you I decided to make squash…………..it was fabulous, so good I made it for lunch and my mom is buying me a whole bunch tomorrow. I can’t wait to follow some of the ways you eat it. Excited. <3 Thank you for the idea, and I totally understand why you eat it over and over and over again, instant love.
MMM! Squash are AWESOME. I am glad you’re jumping on this train.
I can’t wait to see how you eat it!
woooo outdoor pool!!! Man that’d be so much fun, sometimes at the Y I feel like I’m just gassing myself with chlorine cuz its all trapped in there hah. I’m still drooling over that pasta too – and hey, we’re athletes, we can eat our white carbs ESPECIALLY on vacation!
and yessss coors + larabar!! I love the peanut butter choco chip one – my fave flavor combo haha. and ok the squash + nut butter combo….I’m totally hooked on butternut squash + almond butter as a bedtime snack now, I blame you! 
Also, all this new blogginess has got me thinking…I think I wanna make a new one too. the last one was just so much frustration!! hmm lol
I LOVE the idea for a new blog—because I MISS yours. And because you’re awesome. DOOO IT!
I am so glad you found squash and almond butter awesomeness.
Love love love love love. I want the other half of mine!
I want to try to make my own LARA bars.
Hmm fave larabar?! That is a tough choice!! I don’t think I can pick just one so here are my top choices… cherry pie, blueberry muffins, pb and j, cashew cookie, peanut butter cookies, apple pie, cappacino, and lemon bar!! I pretty much love all of them lol!!!
OH MAN! I have a lot of flavours to try!!
Haha there are a lot of meals that I repeat all the time too. But that squash looks delicious so I don’t blame you for eating it all the time! I’m excited to get back to London so that I can actually eat squash again… my family hates squash for some reason. I know, they’re weirdos. I think I’m adopted.
Fave Larabar flavour… well I actually made my own version of a coconut Larabar and I loved it! I keep on meaning to experiment with making other flavours. I think I want to try making the banana bread flavour next!
Let’s try! I saw a recipe where you had to cook the bananas to make them dry out a bit–are you thinking the same thing!?
Mmmmm squash.
