Not this week at least. You give a girl a midnight bedtime FOUR days in a row, and things are bound to get ugly.
Breakfast was a PB+B quesadilla + Haralson apple eaten at 6:15am this morning while writing this morning’s blog post (from yesterday’s eats) and finishing up some freelance work. That’s what happens when you are exhausted and pass out in your bed due to one too many glasses of vino antioxidants.
To redeem myself, I decided I wasn’t going to mess around with lunch. Sunprint Cafe salad bar it was!
The mix contained:
- spinach
- beets
- raisins
- red onion
- chickpeas
- 1 hard-boiled egg
- broccoli salad
- pico de gallo
- cucumber
- carrots
- green peppers
- sunflower seeds
- cucumber yogurt dressing
Yeah that’s right. Don’t mess with me and my junk salads.
And DON’T mess with my carbs: all hail the Sun Bun!
That would be peppers, jack cheese, onion and spices in one heavenly hunk of deliciousness. I only wish it had been as big in real life as it looks in the picture. TWSS.
Snackage was another Haralson apple…
Twas’ another crazy day at work. Thankfully, this week shall be the last crazy one until at least 2010. I wouldn’t mess around about that.
Dinner was the requisite yog mess…
1 cup homemade Greek yog
1/4 cup Dylan’s Cranberry Walnut Chia granola
1 smashed naner
1 tbsp. Bee’s Knees PB
Thankfully, I actually did not need to stay at work super late and instead, my new workout bud Steph and I headed to a glorious 75-minute Power Yoga class. I am talking crescent lunges to airplanes to needle back to crescent followed by multiple flows. Needless to say, I am glowing in happiness right now. Our teacher Karen – she doesn’t mess around.
My vinyasa flow of happiness continued on my walk home where I caught up with Daddy Everythingtarian via the cell and proceeded to find this in my mailbox…
AHHHHHHHH! Somebody who knows I have been desperately searching for Celestial Seasonings holiday tea is NOT messing around here. And she goes by the name of Alison (a.k.a. Mother of the Weeds).
To top it off, she even had Miss Ava draw me a picture…
Grapes, lettuce, carrots and brownies – oh how well she knows me ;). I am pretty sure this is the cutest thing ever and is staying on my fridge permanently.
Thank you SO much Alison! You have know idea how much this brightened my chaotic, busy week!
Now, I am going to continue to not mess around by eating some Coconut Bliss, doing the dishes and getting to bed early. Tomorrow is Friday – THANK the sweet heavens above!
Did you floss today? (I have!) Have you done your 3 days of yoga yet? (I am 1/3)
What are your plans for the weekend? Mine are to sleep, launder, clean and do whatever I want!

Oh man, that bread is making me drool – as is the salad above it.
I haven’t flossed yet today, but I will in T-30 minutes or so!! Happy FINALLY FRIDAY tomorrow!
OMG the bread looks amazing. Flossed twice!
i’ve gotta get me some of that tea – has my name all over it!!! your weekend plans sounds great. perfect, in fact.
I’ve been a MALO flosser :( But I promise to try to be a better woman, er, flosser; forgive me?
BUENOS NOCHES, AMOR!
I’ve had too many antioxidants this week too ;-)
I can’t wait for the weekend! SLEEP!
that sun bun looks soo good!
jenna
how is the cranberry walnut chai granola? i’ve almost bought it about three time but never do.
I’m in on the yoga challenge. I’m 2/3 this week. I gotta get another in!
Aw Alison is the Best! i hope you enjoy that tea my love! :)
That salad looks AMAZING. I like the sounds of a Sun Bun:)
So jealous that you found the seasonal teas–I can’t find them anywhere!
Love the junk salad, sun, bun, sugar cookie sleigh ride tea (!!), and yoga.
Don’t love the late nights at work. My boss just told me to “be prepared to stay veryyyy late next week”. Approximately ’till the 10pm hour. Double Ugh.
Junk salads and yogurt messes shall get me through! :-)
We are heading up to Mallard’s hometown. We will be visiting a couple who have been “together” since they were 12 and are now married and expecting their first child!
” Somebody who knows I have been desperately searching for Celestial Seasonings holiday tea is NOT messing around here. And she goes by the name of Alison (a.k.a. Mother of the Weeds).”
THEY STILL DO NOT HAVE THIS IN AZ YET!!!
I have stalked 4 groc stores AND talked to the store mgr and they are saying mid Nov. I am thinking maybe by Dec 1st. Freaking ticked off b/c everyone has it but me. Sniff sniff.
And thx for your yoga kudos on my post on Janetha’s bloggie :)
Glad I am your yoga hero :)
xoox
That is one bomb salad bar and I think Gigi’s artwork kicks Ava’s artwork’s ass. Just kidding.
yay for cookie tea…i’m sippin as i read!

who knows…i’m wingin it
Mama PEA! Ohnoshedint!
Heheheh I’m so glad it brightened your week! You are very welcome!
I didn’t floss today. I also do’t plan on flossing for a long time ;)
That sun bun looks like a roll of fun.
Alright, now that I’ve gotten my Dr.Suess rhyming tic out of the way…have fun decompressing from the week!
I’ve flossed and done one bout of yoga this week. Methinks I will catch up with the other two classes this weekend.
good gravy, that sun bun looks insane. I’m enjoying a cup of holiday tea right now! so good! if only I could be drinking it out of a red starbucks cup, than it might as well be christmas!
Dang girl, you’re eating just about as many apples as I am these days. Ah, tis the season right? I am doing excellently on the flossing challenge and pleased to hear you’re succeeding as well. Happy Friday! xoxo
Awesome salad! I haven’t had a really good salad in a while. I have had good salads, but not really good ones…. Must change that.
We are all fighting a cold, so I’ll just try to get as much rest as I can over the weekend.
Enjoy your weekend! :)
That Sun Bun looks A.MA.ZING!!!
That salad is EPIC and that picture is adorable!
I hope you get some rest SOON my dear!
I gotta floss tonight, but I did yesterday! Woot woot!
And that picture + package from Alison is the CUTEST THING EVER!
Looks like you had a great day Holly babe!!
I flossed!!
Have an awesome weekend :)
~Justine
Holy hell that sun bun looks like so much carby joy!
Hope you get some sleep. Actually, I DEMAND that you get some sleep :)
Ugh, I hear ya on the sleep deprivation. I only got 5.5 hour last night and I’m dragging! The salad looks delicious, and I love that tea!! That and pumpkin tea are my absolute faves. The sun bun looks delish, too. My mom’s coming to visit this weekend, and I’m super excited :)
That little roll looks so good! Those cheddar biscuits from Red Lobster are always so addicting.. I think any flavored bread is actually!
I flossed yesterday! And I attempted yoga but that was pretty much a failure!
There is no messing with that salad, it looks like pure goodness!
That salad looks so amazing!
The salad and the bun look amazing!!
I demand you make sugar cookie tea oats — you just have to.
happy weekend lovebear! xo
I want your junk salad and sun bun pleeeease. Thnx :)
I have been sucking on the flossing. Will step up my game on that one. However there will be some sweetsweet living room yoga happening tomorrow :)
I’m working all weekend, with a little yoga, running, spinning and reading in between. Nothing overly exciting. Hope you get to rest up from your crazy week! xo
Heavens above – thank goodness for the existence of amazing salad bars like that! And delicious yoga! I hit up class #2 for the week this morning and it also featured lots of crescent moons to airplanes. Niiice.
Love that yog mess. Just about to go and make meself one with a warmed Haralson. Forgot to tell you that they are also my NUMBER ONE fave apple. Word.
This weekend is gloriously unfilled so far! Tonight I’m going to the Timberwolves game but apart from that – hitting up Dick’s for some running apparel to get me through winter (!), maybe hitting up H&M because I can’t help myself, and hopefully working on some house shiz, definitely making the most of the 63 degree sunny weather promised tomorrow! Oh and BAKING.
Holy smokes, that lunch looks awesome. Hope you get so much deserved rest this weekend- sounds like a crazy week!
My weekend: tune harp, again, buy a heater (I have no heat in my apartment and it is freeeeezing), see my dad, sleep… I am so tired this week. I think my body is going into hibernation :P Oh, and baking muffins is a MUST this weekend!
I don’t know which part of your lunch looks more incredible — that salad or the gorgeous bread! What a cute drawing, I love kids’ artwork!
OMG that bread looks amazing!! I cannot find that tea ANYWHERE! :(
After entering this comment I will do a bit of yoga :) Get in my practice. You really don’t mess around girl. And that Sun Bun.. it reminds me of delicious fresh garlicky cheese biscuits! Soooo fluffy and when you pull it apart all the steam comes out.
I LOVE Sugar cookie tea.
p.s. I dug the zucchini loaf :D If you want, I can send ya some! I also want to make some other goodies as well. Goshhh the season of giving is here ;)
I LOVE YOU!
AH! I can’t find that tea ANYWHERE. Maybe I’ll find it here…

I hear ya! I am totally beat. I have to learn my choreography for my Body Pump test tomorrow but am hoping hoping to crash early. That salad bar mix up and the Sun Bun looks incredible. And what a beautius pic!
Oh I want that salad and roll thing. Amaze.
I’m not messing around by picking out every single chocolate chip out of this darn trail mix. I don’t need the nuts, just the chocolate, yo.
Ummm I have neither flossed nor yoga-ed. But I am getting ready to go out. Because I don’t mess around either, boo.
Have a lovely, relaxing weekend! Love you!!
