I had a lovely lazy Fall Saturday. How about you?
I had the usual bowl of cereal to break my fast - Kashi Heart to Heart Warm Cinnamon Oat:
And a plum:
I started getting peckish again around 11 so I downed a couple of Sunsweet Prunes.
I didn’t want to eat too much, though, because I was heading out to Vettiner Park here in Louisville to meet some people from my SparkPeople Louisville Loser’s team for a chili potluck. Despite the fact that it was freezing due to the blustery winds, we had a great time and I met some really nice people! I did probably eat a little too much chili, though. I forgot to take pics, but this is what I had:
- 1 small bowl of each of the 3 kinds of chili. They were all delicious!!
- A little bit of Smart Balance Sour Cream in each bowl. I didn’t even know Smart Balance made sour cream, but it was really thick and delicious!
- about 5 saltine crackers
- 2 small pieces of cheese
- Some baby carrots, celery, and cherry tomatoes with a little bit of Sabra Roasted Red Pepper Hummus. I’m not a big hummus fan, but I liked this a lot better than the plain stuff. I still wouldn’t buy it for myself, though.
The chili picnic was pretty much the only thing I did all day besides stay at home and chill with the hubby. Pretty uneventful, but relaxing. These days will come to an end soon enough though since I am about to start work.
The chili kept me full for quite a while but eventually I did get a little hungry again. I figured I would make it an all veg dinner so I roasted up a huge tray of red and green peppers, onions, zucchini and squash. I had a little bit of the roasted veggies alongside a sweet potato with Smart Balance and cinnamon and a little Chobani 0% on the side.
This too kept me very full and I could have gone to bed later without eating anything else but I had to have another small bowl of my new favorite ice cream: Edy’s Spumoni. I’m already doing a terrible job at making this stuff last.
Delicious.
