I would much rather spend my day riding my bike, hiking, reading in the sun, or reading blogs

But today I felt like shopping!

But first I ate a fabulous bowl of fruit.

And oat bran with chia seeds drizzled with tahini and a small scoop of almond butter.

I paired my breakfast with a Kombucha.  I am feeling a bit rundown today.  Hopefully just tired from all my tough workouts this week.

Then I took of and went shopping

It was nice and quiet because it was early and it because it is a weekday.  Please so not take me shopping on a weekend and please do not take me to an enclosed mall.

I scored quite a few summer and work items at really good prices at Old Navy and American Eagle.  It was a good shopping day with lots of discounts.  That made me happy!

Then I raced home because I was starving and devoured another Kombucha and this Trek bar I got yesterday.

Now I got my feet up, relaxing, reading blogs and waiting for Bill to get home so we can start the weekend.  I am going to make Jenna’s no oil pesto tonight and pair it with gluten-free pasta.

Can’t wait!

What are your plans for this glorious 3 day weekend?

Are you a shopper?

Have you noticed that I tend to rotate between pasta and salad throughout the week?  Sorry if I bore you with my lack of variety

Do you have two types of meals that you rotate through a lot?

We decided to give this pasta a shot:

Do you use this pasta?  Do you think it is better for you than others or not?

While the pasta was cooking, I steamed up carrots, broccoli, snow peas, and spinach.

Once the pasta was done and drained,  I put it back into the pot and mixed in some crushed garlic, the steamed veggies, a can of tuna, and this delicious find:

Before serving I added some leftover hummus and a bit of shredded parmesan cheese:

After my tough workout yesterday with Khrystle and Bill’s tough bike ride last night, the pasta really hit the spot

Thank goodness we have it for lunch today too.  Don’t you love leftovers?

I always try to make extra at dinner so we have lunch for the next day.

Do you do that too?

Today is the last day to enter my giveaway for a super cute thermal hoodie.  Any comment you leave on the original post or this post today will count as an entry.

The contest ends tonight at 8pm and I will pick a winner tomorrow.

Hopefully if you win you will be wearing your hoodie next week!

Happy Hump Day
