Did you know teachers AREN’T supposed to work on Saturdays? As funny as you think that is (especially if you’re a teacher & know the truth), I usually do my weekend schoolwork from the comfort of my couch in my pajamas. However, today I volunteered myself (and by volunteer, I mean get paid mega bucks an hour) to administer a standardized test to the district’s 8th graders. Piece of cake.
Except for the 5 a.m. wakeup call.
Seriously?
I’m sad to present to you my dark bowl of oats again.
I didn’t even care though — because the NuttZo was present & it’s delicious! And almost on it’s last leg… ::tear::
On my way home, I was literally running on E. No joke. The gas light went on right when I got onto the highway with another 20 miles to roll along. I kind of prayed the entire time I would make it to the gas station when I got home.
I made it…. but probably not with much to spare. Thanks God — I owe you one.
I then got hard to work on my lunch — leftover stirfry. The only thing I had to do was make a little more tofu as I only had a few pieces left from last night.
I had some nutmeric sauce on it from yesterday, but I was feeling in a bbq mood — so, I added some Bone Suckin’ Sauce (extra thick). I <3 gluten free BBQ sauce.
When I was eating my lunch, I immediately saw a HEAB post in my reader & clicked right away. You see, she didn’t post yesterday… and I knew it could mean only one thing! THE HEABLET HAS ARRIVED! I kind of did a happy dance & clapped my hands in a joyous celebration — no joke. Over the last few months, I’ve become better bloggie buddies with Heather, & I couldn’t be happier for her. Go take a look at the beautiful mama & baby. Honestly, both look absolutely stunning. Congratulations Heather — Summer is gorgeous! Enjoy your little family this weekend!
I’m off to go do a million and one things before 6:00 when the Husband and I are having our friends over for dinner. Thankfully the Crockpot has been my saving grace today — even if it meant me gagging at 6:30 AM while putting a whole chicken into it.
Question: Is there a food that absolutely makes you gag?

Pumpkin and squash make me want to gag
I wish it wasn’t so!
OH. MY. GOSH.
Meat makes me want to gag too. So does.. meat. Yeah, I’m not really picky so I think that’s probably the only food I really can’t stomach.
Yay!! I’m so happy for Heather! Summer is beautiful!
Um, now I kind of don’t want to switch gears to answer your question! But I will say this: cilantro. There!
Bananas make me want to gag. I can’t stand the smell… and refuse to let people eat them while in my car. It’s that bad…
Love the crock pot but seriously raw chicken is disgusting! What did you put in with the chicken?
I am so glad you made it home without running out of gas!
Make sure to sleep in tomorrow after your early wake-up call!
In with the chicken went some spices (salt, pepper, garlic, lemon), some sliced onion for flavor & that’s it! It looks really good (from a carnivore’s perspective)
ugh - i hear you. raw meat makes me want to gag :X
bummer you had to work on your weekend! at least you got paid the big bucks for it
That’s so early for a Saturday! Yuck. But it’s always nice to have some extra mulah.
Honestly I can’t really think of a food that makes me gag… unless it’s mouldy or something. One thing that does make me gag though is shots. Pure alcohol is gross!
I was working today too and although I didn’t get paid for it (grrrr) I will get some time off in lieu at some point so not too bad… as for foods that make me gag, two words:
Brussels. Sprouts. Wrong, just wrong
umm I’m not sure we can be friends!
Not me, but my husband will gag at the smell of bananas. It’s quite sad really. I love him to bits, but I still eat bananas! Am I a bad wife?
if you’re a bad wife, then i am the epitome of a horrible wife.
liver makes me gag. ew..i’ve never saw it but like once..but the thought of it…and gizards….eeeeeeeewwww!! sry to gross you out here..i’ll stop. hope you have fun 2nite with your comapny!!
Parsnips make me gag!! Yuck yuck yuck!
I’m not even going to pretend I wasn’t gagging when I found a bag of bloody beef dripping in our fridge when I went to unpack the groceries. Thanks Joey…
HEAB makes people!Talk about super-powers.
Over the years I found myself thinking “I like everything!” I was confounded by people who were like “I don’t like tomatoes…broccoli..chinese food…etc”
So very thought provoking question . Lots of “food” makes me want to gag just cause it’s … um… unclean. Like chicken. Pickled pigs feet. Pixie stix. But when it comes down to my personal taste?
Not a fan of mayo..it won’t make me gag though. Alfredo sauce?
But nothing natural, from the earth. Hmm. Makes me wonder.
