Cruisin…

Justin and I decided to go on a cruise this summer!!  We are going to celebrate our wedding anniversary and also a new beginning with me starting back to school.  I am so so excited and happy about this!  I just feel that this is not just a vacay but a new beginning.  We are getting a stellar deal so we just decided to go for it!!  Aaaaahhhh, I can’t wait- I am SO happy right now!

Another thing that makes me happy… tomorrow is my last day of work!!!!!!!  (yes, it does need that many exclamation points!)  It’s finally arrived and I am so very happy.

For breakfast this morning I decided to give the oat bran another try.  This time I added a little of my chocolate protein powder to it and it was much much better.  It looks a little weird (mostly because I took a bite before I remembered that I hadn’t taken a pic yet) but trust me, it was good!

In the mix…

  • 1/4 cup oat bran
  • water
  • 1/2 banana
  • 1/2 scoop chocolate protein powder
  • Tablespoon of Barney Butter

Fabulous!

And don’t forget the cafe!

Lunch was almost non-existent.  I spent the whole 20 minutes that I get fighting with the copy machine in the teachers lounge.  It decided to be a jerkface today, so I was giving it what-for.  The copy machine won, btw.  So during my 5th grade classes I had a few minutes to gulp down some Greek yogurt with blueberries (no pic).

When I got home I was sooo tired!!  But dinner must be had and I really didn’t want to eat out(we have a trip to pay for for goodness sake!).  So we had some crispy chicken fingers.  Find the recipe here.

To the tasty chicken fingers we added…

  • steamed broccoli
  • small sweet potato with a tiny bit of butter

Oh so good!  These chicken fingers are a classic and they are going to be around this house for a looong time!

Oh and I may have had a glass or two of Prosecco.  (or we may have finished off the whole bottle.  whoops!)

Gosh this stuff is so good.

Well, that’s all I got for now.  I need to go get some dishes done.  I hear hubby clanking around in the kitchen so I gotta take care of it before he breaks something!  🙂
