I’m going to play a game called “I want to finish this post by 7 PM so I can watch my favorite shows tonight”. Ready…. go!
I know I say this every week – but for real? Wednesday already? These next two weeks are quite busy as we have report cards to finish and conferences as well. Thanksgiving break will be much needed soon!

Pumpkin Oats topped with apples, raisins, and almond buttah
Lunch

I kid you not.
My meal plan went out the window tonight – no time to cook. Whoops!

OMG…your lunch looks fabulous!
Best thing I ate today was my banana egg pancake courtesy of Anne at FANNEtastic Food. Your dinner looks pretty great for dinner plans being thrown out the window.
OK, I’m loving your lunch pic … very life-like.
Yes, I know. I’m a great photographer.
The best thing I ate today was far and away my morning snack — peach & passion fruit flavoured Greek yogurt with a baked apple, sunflower seeds, and a huge dollop of PB. I’ve been eating it recently, but without the PB — have to say, I’m not going back to the old way!!
Your salad looks super yummy!!
ha ha. Your lunch looks DELICIOUS!
Love that kind of humor.
Rock on!
Haha love the lunch pic!
My default dinner is the exact same, giant random salad and baked potato with barbeque sauce, so darn good!
my dinner that i just scarfed down! a thick piece of bread, toasted, covered in nutritional yeast + almond milk sauce, and two whole eggs on top! (with broccoli on the side) SO GOOD!
I made an AWESOME stuffed acorn squash for the first time ever!! I had it for lunch and took a picture, but I must admit yours looks much more appealing
ps-I can NEVER be trusted with trail mix…………EVER
yes, i am quite the photographer.
Hahahahahaha LOVE your lunch photo, did you use paint?! Best program ever.
no, i used my dslr. duh.
Black bean soup sounds so good. I need to give that recipe a try. I’ve been enjoying a wonderful salad combo recently so it was definitely the best thing I had today!
The soup is really good! It tastes exactly like Panera’s!
Wohoo for Wednesday night Tv! The only night I actually turn on the tv. Okay, your on the fly dinners are so similar to mine. Eggs and avocado, you can NEVER go wrong with that.
The best thing I ate today is waiting for me in the kitchen; pumpkin yogurt with gingerbread granola. Oh boy!
Yum, that sounds awesome! PS - only like 10 days until we get to hang out!!!
Wait, whaaaat?!? I want in!!
its true - come to chi-town!!!!
Loving your lunch photo
I’ve actually had lots of good food today. My black bean soup was pretty kickass at lunch, the veggie pizza I had for dinner was fantastic, and the cookie I just ate was pretty darn tasty!
Look at us both having black bean soup!
TWINSIES!
Your lunch picture is hilarious…very creative!
The best thing I ate today was my “No Chicken” Chickpea Noodle Soup…it was delicious and reminded me of chicken noodle soup. I didn’t even miss the chicken 
Oh delicious! I have a recipe for that too - sooo good!
I always eat a zillion handfuls of trail mix too. Cant.stop.wont.stop.
Best thing I ate today was a smashing s’more dessert from Trader Joe’s!
That sounds delicious!!!
Haha love the picture of your lunch. And yes, trail mix is dangerously addicting. I have a love-hate relationship with that stuff. And let’s talk about your ketchup for a sec… Is that homemade? It looks different to me.
Nope - it’s from Trader Joe’s!
That’s a mighty bowl of ketchup, looks so rich, is it homemade?!
The trail mix looks really good! I am going to have to pick some up at the store tonight after seeing that…not something I ever think of getting when I am there.
The best thing I ate today was a bbq chicken chopped salad from Panera…so good!
My meal plan went out the window last night too. I was going to try a new recipe, but I didn’t read it properly before grocery shopping so I forgot to buy an ingredient! So I just made stir fry for dinner, which was probably the best thing I ate. Using Sunbutter in the sauce makes it SO good!
Ahaha! That drawing of you lunch is hilarious. I love Panera’s black bean soup…I need to try out that recipe.
Best thing I ate yesterday was my fage yogurt with my homemade granola (soo goood)
I LOVE to make soup, I had homemade taco soup this week (and adding the Adobo pulled pork I made Sunday, since I have soo.much.pork!!)
So far I’ve only had oatmeal, so I guess that’s the best thing.
My stomach is grumbling though, so I think it’s time to get my lunch on.
I wish I had eaten a bunch of handfuls of trailmix today! I may have to steal my daughters m and m halloween candy and put myself together a batch…it really is so easy to make, not sure why i dont do it more. Well I do know, because i eat it like its going out of style!
Ohhh I tried an americano with 1 pump of pumpkin the other day and it was delicious!! Though I think that might have been my only chance since I saw it contains dairy- boo! But I have discovered a pumpkin tea that’s delicious! And the best thing I’ve had so far was an Udi’s GF muffin top! They are a little pricy but it was so nice to have something different for breakfast!
Haha…your drawing of lunch made me really laugh out loud!!!
Wow that’s what you come up with when you dont have time to cook? Totally beats my zapping an Amy’s GF burrito!
yumm panera breads black bean soup was my fav i cant wait to try that recipe!
the best thing i ate today was a miniature reese’s cup!!!
Best thing I ate was butternut squash white bean soup from a local organic market. Best part… I didn’t have to cook it! I love all things squash this time of year.
