Home for the Holidays

Today at work I thought about all the fun things that are coming up in the next month, it got me in a GREAT MOOD!

• Fall Couples Retreat with the Hubby
• Mission Inn Half Marathon
• Father and Daughter Conference with my Daddy
• Lighting the Way 10k
• Work Retreat in Santa Barbara
• *Thanksgiving in Tennessee
• and something fun that I will be announcing next week!!!

*We bought our tickets this week to go to Tennessee for Turkey Day! I can’t wait I love going to Tennessee. Hubby’s family is wonderful I always feel so loved when we go there. I love California but there is something about the South that is just so sweet.

On to the eats….

For Lunch I enjoyed a HUGE salad!

Lot’s of veggies, fruit, avocado, and a little balsamic vinegar. 

After work I had HILL REPEATS with my cross country team. We did a wonderful 5 miles of HILLS and my IT band was fine! Gotta keep rolling! When I walked through the door I saw this on our Kitchen Bar…MAIL!!! I love getting mail :).

The wonderful folks over at POM sent me their new Spiced POM Cider, HOLY YUM!

I also got a package from Vega!!!!!

I have heard so many wonderful things about their products and I can’t wait to try them. “Clean and green, Vega bars contain no refined sugars, oils, gluten or soy and are GMO and pesticide-free. Moist and delicious, Vega bars are available in chocolate, berry and natural flavors.”

Their Vega Energy Bars sound great as far as all the ingredients go…. I will have to give them a taste to see if they live up to what they say.  

After all the fun package opening I made a quick and Healthy Buffet! I decided to make a little bit of all the goodness I was craving.

I threw some Tofu in EVOO and Chili Powder and grilled it on my George Foreman.

Mashed up some sweet potato with a little honey, sliced up an avocado, and warmed up some lentils. 

I also threw a little of my massive zucchini on the George too.

I warmed up some corn tortillas and dug right in!!!! 

I also enjoyed a glass of Orange Flavored Soda Water from my Soda Stream Machine.

My bags are all packed and I am ready to take off tomorrow after work for our mini-vacay!! Hubby and I are soooooo excited to get away from life for the weekend and catch up “US” time!

Gotta finish the second chapter in the new book I have to read for work, “Good to Great”. Have any of you read it? What do you think?

Night!
