Weekend Wrap Up/Superbowl Sunday

I was home this weekend with the exception of last night so I really have no excuses for eating and not taking pictures except I'm plain forgetful sometimes. I'm also feeling a bit under the weather and not in a chatty mood so I'll be brief. I also took like, 2 pictures but you get my drift. 

Friday night I made some tacos and I had 4 of the crunchy spicy goodness. 


Saturday I laid in bed all day reading Confessions of a Shopaholic from 10 am until 2 pm so my "breakfast" was also my "lunch". I made 3/4 cup of eggbeaters and had what was supposed to be 1/4 cup of FEED Cranberry and Coconut granola but it ended up being more like 1/2 a cup because I kept nomming kibbles from the bag before I put it away. I then did about an hour and fifteen minutes of We Cheer. God I love that game. 

Saturday night after cleaning my room and bathroom from top to bottom and going to get my eyebrows waxed (ah, the things we do for beauty) I grabbed a Dunkin Donuts medium coffee, regular with cream and sugar. I also grabbed stuff to make homemade queso dip but I "behaved" and got the 2% velveeta and organic blue corn chips. I also used the 93% lean ground beef and threw in some extra onion on top of the volcano salsa. It was so, so good. Hit a craving spot I've been having for weeks. I ate probably a cup of the queso and a good 20 chips or so. 

Sunday morning I woke up and had to primp to go to the skating rink and get ready to head out to see my love for Superbowl Sunday afterwards. Again by the time I ate it was almost noon and I had the same combo of eggbeaters and granola but - god that granola is good, although it tends to get stuck in my teeth easily. After gabbing with my roommates some I realized I was late to my skating lessons so I booked it out the door to return 2 hours later with another Dunkin Donuts medium regular coffee, cream and sugar. If I had thought about it the day before I wouldn't have gotten one and kept my DD Coffee treat to Sunday only (which will be the norm from now on with my lessons). I walked back home, changed and packed, then walked back to the subway and headed out to see T. 



We made a pit stop to get some stuff to make french
onion dip (I got the low fat sour cream and onion soup mix), more queso (using the same "low fat" ingredients), and stuff to make mini bagel pizzas (I got the 100 calorie mini bagels and part skim mozzarella). We also got regular tortilla chips but baked Ruffles instead of the regular kind. So, despite it being Gluttony Fest 2009 (with the addition of the pastry puff assortment - pigs in blankets, spicy beef turnovers, potato puffs and the like) we at least made a conscious effort to get better, healthier versions of otherwise "Bad" food so I'm pretty pleased. I did however end the night with a bowl of cherry gelato/vanilla ice cream because my throat was, and is all scratchy and hurty.

4 crunchy taco shells with seasoned 93% ground beef, sprinkling of sharp cheese, sour cream and hot sauce

I don't remember exactly but it was something like...

2 spicy beef turnovers
2 bagel pizza bites
2 buffalo chicken bites
3 pigs in blankets with mustard
A fair bit of french onion dip and baked ruffles
A fair bit of queso and tortilla chips
2 cans of coke zero

Whew. Piggy. I also thought I wrote a lot considering I said I wasn't going to write much. I'd also like to point out that it's now 1:03 in the afternoon and the only thing I've had today has been 2 children's throat coolers and some water. Oh, and a vitamin C drop. I should eat something I suppose. Maybe there's some soup laying around the kitchen. Ew sodium but...meh, I need to eat especially if I'm going to workout tonight.
