As delicious as last night’s dessert buffet was, my digestive system still isn’t quite as happy as my taste buds were. The remedy? Lots of whole grains and fresh produce, of course!
Breakfast was a bowl of Kashi GoLean, blackberries and blueberries.
Lots of fiber + crunch!
After a session on the elliptical watching Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, I was craving veggies like nobody’s business. These hummus salad beasts have become my staple this week!
Romaine, tomato, pickles, broccoli and carrots with lotsa Sabra.
Two slices of Alvarado high-protein toast.
My mom has been nagging me to consolidate my jars of nut butter, so I dug around for the emptiest one: PB&Co.’s Bee’s Knees. This is actually my least favorite of all the PB&Co. flavors, but I still had no problem polishing off the remaining ~2T with a honeycrisp apple.
When I felt snacky a little later, I had two large bowls of millet puffs and almond milk. I ate these all the time over the summer, and I forgot how much I loved their kettle-corn-like taste!
On my agenda for this afternoon: rereading the last 300 pages of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. Can you tell I’ve been on a slight HP kick this break? J
What have been the "themes" of your week? Any current food, book or movie obsessions?

Yum! I wished we had Kashi cereal in the UK, it looks SO good mixed with berries! Good look with finishing HP, im sure youll do it no problem =] x
Gah, those blackberries and blueberries make me want to cry - I haven't had any in SO LONG!
Themes this week...millet! I've just discovered it and I looove it :) Im cooking some right now :)
Oh I love how your bowls of cereal look! Mine never look that pretty! LOL :D
I just clicked over from reader and saw your new header! Love it! Running in Paris would be lovely...
We're seeing HP7 tonight!!! Yippee! And I'm about to do some serious reading in my Girl With the Dragon Tattoo book. Yay. :)
Haha my mom is constantly nagging me about nut butter jars as well! I think my themes this break have been "baking" and "Christmas." I can't complain!!
I loved puffed millet/puffed cereals in general. I love "beefing up" a bowl of cereal with that and some other cereal (lately - Kashi Cinn. Harvest, of course!) and adding some sunflower seed butter and banana. Too good.
I had to laugh at your mom nagging you about the p.b. My mom is like that about all of my different grains. She just doesn't understand that they're all different :P
YES ive have a major obsession with my dark choc fudgies... iv already used up the whole cocoa powder container and eat them on EVERYTHING.. oats, yogurt, rice puffs... yeah.. its a bit of an obsession-i love dark choc!
I go through month long food "themes" where I just want the same thing every day! Right now I am on a thanksgiving leftover kick... I wonder why ;-) Have you read the HP books before? I am surprised you even have time to exercise and blog - when I read them I couldn't put them down!!
You've just given me serious berry cravings! They look delicious!
I have a current food obssession with pumpkin- I think I've had it in some form every day this week! :P And I'm FINALLY going to see the HP7 movie tomorrow!! Can't wait! :D
I forgot about Kashi cereal! I need to pick up a box the next time I'm at the store...
And I'm one of those rare people that has never seen/read anything Harry Potter related. My current theme is Vitamin Water Zero (obsessedddddd)
Themes of this week - leftovers... lots and lots of leftovers. :)
theme = stay sane on 5 hrs of sleep and working 16 days in a row with only the holiday of TG off. But i prepared a feast and cleaned it all up, myself :) nothing like a "day off" LOL
Anyway love the connection you have w/ your h.s. girls. That's soo cool!
the dinner and sweets last nite...mmmm, be still my beating heart!
quinoa salad, i'm going to make enough for multiple meals, yummo
No matter how many times I reread the HP books, I never get tired of them! It's sad not having any new HP books to look forward to now!
My theme of the week was pasta! I had it 3 times, which is probably more than I've eaten it in the last 2 months.
My theme of the week has been cheese. haha I've been obsessed. My now my digestive system is saying, "Ooookay, enough!" haha
see, that's why i don't live with my parents so i can have 8 jars of nut butters throughout my apartment, :).
nut butter jars--same with me, hahaha ;) Im on a HP kick also :) Getting a little excited about the release of the Eclipse DVD on Dec 4 too! Im really loving egg and hummus sammies...and yogurt messes!! And creamy banana oatmeal!! YUMZ!!! :)
