I decreased the size of all the photos for this post in photoshop and saved them for the web. Hopefully this actually does something helpful for load time because it took a good chunk of time. Luckily I didn’t eat a ton today and only had 6 photos to share. On that note, if anyone with a Digital SLR has any tips on what they do with their photos before putting them in their posts, I need some advice. Is there a faster method than formatting each photo individually?

Okay, now to the fun stuff… I had the stove top version of yesterday’s breakfast. Have a mentioned how much I love sliced bananas cooked in with the oats?

And, as it turns out this combo was just as creamy as it’s microwaved counterpart. Take that electromagnetic waves. <– I think I had been slacking on the milk and bananas lately and had forgotten how creamy they make oats.

I walked home for lunch in the damp, cold weather and all I wanted was some warm soup.

Turns out I had a lone can of Progresso High Fiber Tomato Basil waiting in the back of the cabinet. It was actually quite tasty, probably due to the fact that it has 13g of sugar per serving. I wasn’t too excited when I read that. :/

I also had a few crackers topped with left-over tuna salad.

And, drum roll please… I didn’t have a lunch dessert. 1 March Madness Challenge goal met for the day! <–Speaking of which, I am super excited that many of you want to join in on the March Madness Challenge. I would love to hear about your goals so leave a comment or shoot me an email and let me know what your plan is!! Also, it’s not too late to join, hop on board the challenge train today!

No sweet snack right after lunch, however I did however pack this guy for later in the afternoon.

Yum! I’m still loving the chia seeds in these fruition bars.

Isaac picked me up from the office and we hit up the gym a strength training workout – Biceps and Back. We usually both go our separate ways at the gym but it was fun to workout together. It made me workout a bit harder, which is always a good thing, right?

I was starving for dinner – I almost forgot to take a picture! I had the same salad from last night with a bowl of leftover sweet potato lentil chili that had been in the freezer.

The Morningstar veggie chik’n patties I’ve been having in my salads lately are awesome. The ingredient list is a little long but I must say that I’m totally digging them right now! They’re super quick to heat up and the taste is really good – nothing like actual chicken.

Now ladies and gentlemen (yes- I do have a few male readers!!), I give you the latest and greatest feature of EBF – Fridge Finds Wednesday!

Each Wednesday I’m going to feature something about, in, on, or around my fridge – a new product, a photo that hangs on the front of it, or who knows what. I think it will be fun.

And, who better to start off this feature than Mr. Robert Zimmerman aka Bob Dylan.

This a postcard (purchased but never sent to anyone) that is hanging on our fridge with a cool homemade bottle cap magnet. And, since he’s made the blog, here’s a nice little tune for you to enjoy – my favorite Bob Dylan song!

Love, hate or never listened to Dylan? I wanna know!!

It’s now 9PM, which means I’m done with this post just in time for the new episode of Modern Family that’s coming on!! So excited.
