Everybody Is looking forward to the Weekend!

Hey there,
I have to start off by saying TGIF!! This 4 day week felt extra-long... hopefully next week’s full 5 days does not get the best of me. That being said this was a very busy week and I had every single night full with dinner plans, meetings and appointments. It was a good week but like i said TGIF!

Tuesday I had five if my best university girls come over for dinner. It was delish! The menu consisted of my own rendition of the Tone It Up Girls sweet potato fires (always a hit), chicken breast with some amazing seasoning (I wish I remembered what I did), steamed broccoli then stir fried with carrots and union in a balsamic vinegar, a lovely spinach salad thanks to my dear friend Chantelle and for desert apple slices mixed with cinnamon and coconut oil and heated in the oven! It was great! The girls also brought an unreal amount of cookie dough, bread and butter and some amazing homemade desserts that were shipped over from a very nice mother! There was a lot of conversation and of course The Hills playing in the background (A reoccurring event in my apartment). Good food and good company! what else could I ask for! But i will say that the second the girls left the bread and cookie dough went straight into the trash... yes it is true. I love a good treat but I would be the first (well almost the firs)t to say I have issues with food and in the battle between the entire tube of cookie dough and me well let’s just say I would not be the victorious one. Don’t get me wrong I love goodies, but I try to keep the treats out of my apartment or else there is no stopping me! Yes, this is something i am working on.


I have officially been working for three weeks now! I am in the routine of the job. I like what I am doing for the most part and it will be killer on my resume post-graduation but i do have one slight problemo!


My cubical is soo boring! It is diffidently in need of some love! Any ideas?? I was thinking a pencil holder, cute mug and maybe a plant... or a fake plant that looks real? hmm

Moving on……I had the same lunch every day this week as I usually do, since I do most preparation on Sunday. I must say that this combination was excellent! Strips of cooked tempeh, 1 tbs of spicy mustard, 2 pieces of kale, 1/2 a chopped apple, and 1/4 of dried quinoa cooked. and of course 1/4 avocado on the side! yumm





Another new favourite of mine is my new afternoon snack of veggies dipped in plain Greek yogurt! You should all seriously go right now and try this combo!

well I am off to make some healthy yummy muffins! Since I eat the last batch in about 48 hours! of course I did. This time I will freeze them so i don’t end up having none for when I really need them!


haha I thought I would sneak in a pick of the muffins in the works! wooo

What’s your favourite afternoon snack? Tell me!
