Berry Bounty

by eatingbirdfood on May 20, 2009

Today went by really quickly at work because things were busy. At lunch I ran by the post office and ran home. I only had time to prep my salad so I decided just to take it back to the office and eat at my desk- which apparently is the worst idea germ wise.

The desk, in terms of bacteria, is 400 times more dirty than your toilet,” says Charles Gerba, PhD, a professor of environmental microbiology at the University of Arizona in Tucson. “People turn their desks into bacteria cafeterias because they eat at them, but they never clean them. The phone is the dirtiest, the desktop is next, and the mouse and the computer follow.”

I try to not to do it often because I like to move around after sitting all morning, but a girls gotta go what a girls gotta do. So I ate at my desk.

A delicious salad made with kale, red leaf and romaine lettuce (all freshly picked), sweet corn off the cob, raw okra, cherry tomatoes, 1/4 of an avocado, shrooms, and salsa. Really great combo and I loved the sweetness of the corn.

Mid afternoon I had some Virginia Salted Peanuts and a navel orange. After leaving work I headed to the other house (what I will, from now on out, call the house Isaac is house sitting). At the other house they have a strawberry garden… which I LOVE!! I picked this bowl of goodness  and ate them throughout the day- the majority were eaten before dinner.

Very similar ingredients as lunch only I added some grated carrots and almond accents. The avocado is speckled with course sea salt and pepper.

And, don’t worry, I didn’t give up on cereal today. I ended up having some Honey Kix as a snack this evening.. out of a coffee cup. :)

This post is quick and to the point because I am off to bed. zzzzz.

Wacky Monday

by eatingbirdfood on December 15, 2008

Things are all out of wack here in VA, it’s December 15th and 70 degrees. Seriously I’m not complaining because this is great news for my outrageous heating bill, however 70 degree weather is just not really suppose to be happening right now. It’s suppose to be snowing so I can walk in a winter wonderland and make snow angels. On to other things out of wack – today doesn’t feel quite like a Monday. Maybe a Tuesday or a Wednesday, but def. not Mon.

Whatever, it is warmer outside than it is in my house and it is Monday and this is what I decided to eat for breaking the fast. 1 egg, 1 egg white omelette with a bit of onions, spinach, and some feta cheese. Served with a side of fresh made (not by me but by Joe from TJ’s) salsa and Morning Star veggie sausage (one link and one patty.) I decided, after eating the links several times, that I don’t like the links at all – maybe I’m cooking them incorrectly but the texture on outside of them is just wrong.

For lunch I walked home from work with NO coat and made a quick salad with some romaine lettuce salad with hearts of palm, 1/2 an avacado, and sprouts and a litte TJ’s Goddess Dressing. Yum – I like the TJ’s brand better than Annies.

I did eat dinner tonight, but I have left overs and I’m going to eat those for lunch tomorrow – so I’ll leave you all in suspense as to what I ate this eve.

Have a lovely night!
