Today I woke up feeling a little sick and it has progressively gotten worse as the day as went on. On my normal lunch hour walk I was getting winded and felt like I couldn’t breathe fully. I don’t ever feel like that… not even when running so it was odd. I don’t know if maybe I’m catching some sort of bug or if the pollen is getting to me (my car was covered this morning) Apparently, Richmond is known for high amounts of pollen and I guess it’s starting early. Besides not feeling tip-top the day has been going well and it feels so good outside- it’s about 75-80 degrees, I got hot walking outside with my cropped pants on. I love this weather. I can’t wait for everyday to be nice and hot and sunny. On to my meals. For breakfast I had instant oatmeal… and it was a disappointment. There is nothing like the real thing. I used to eat instant all the time and now that I have started making it on the stove top I’ve become and oatmeal snob. I just feel like you get so much more in your bowl when you make it and it tastes soo much better. (just my opinion) It was nice however to not have to do any dishes and to have the extra 10-15 minutes to get ready. I also had ½ cup of fresh strawberries. And I was still hungry so I packed a little bag of mixed cereals and raisins as a snack for the way to work.
For lunch I had Amy’s Indian frozen meal. I love them! They may not look that appetizing but seriously so good!
Tonight I am going to dinner at a friend’s house and apparently we are having “dream meals”- something that her parents do every month. Go to the place, pick out meals and bring the dishes home frozen to have at a later date. I have heard of such places I just didn’t know anyone who actually bought the meals. I’m excited to see how they look and taste.
