smoothie

Off

On Tuesday I was feeling a little off. The foods I normally eat (besides peanut butter) didn’t taste good. I felt sluggish and sad. I think it may have been post long weekend blues?

I made a strawberry/blueberry/raspberry smoothie and it didn’t taste good. (What the heck?!?) So I added peanut butter. Then it tasted like pb&j. Kinda cool.

I spent some time on my back porch reading before work. It felt like summer 🙂

The Doctor’s Wife is considered a psychological thriller. It really is intense! I am enjoying it a lot especially because the book is written about the town where my mom grew up [Gloversville, NY]  so I know all of the places the author talks about and I feel so connected.

I was in such a funk on Tuesday that I broke my favorite dish.

It had been holding broccoli and corn bread. (Yeah.. Chili in June..) I ate the broccoli w/o washing it and got another hunk of corn bread. I was legit sad about the dish.

I have been looking through all my foodie pictures and I notice a lot of drinks..

A frozen latte after my race victory on Sunday. Spoiled.

I noticed in the summer that I mostly drink all of my calories. I drink smoothies, thick creamy coffee drinks, and juice. I also eat liquid foods like watermelon, ice cream, yogurt and pureed soup. Interesting!

******************

I didn’t follow my coach’s plan and run 4 miles today. I didn’t run any miles because my legs were sore and my knee hurt. No shame, no shame!

My mom, sister, and I are going to look a bathing suits tonight for our cruise in 11 days. (!!!) Jim is home sick from work so please pray for him to feel better, poor little guy :/.

Do you drink your calories in the summer?

Enjoying spring flowers

Which reminds me of this verse:

See! The winter is past; 
   the rains are over and gone. 
Flowers appear on the earth; 
   the season of singing has come, 
the cooing of doves 
   is heard in our land. 

Song of Solomon 2: 11-12
