Roses are Red

When I came back sunday night from the boating trip Daniel had a little surprise for me….

He’s always so sweet surprising me with flowers. Even when I was in Germany for a couple weeks with my family he ordered flowers to be sent to me.  I was shocked! I love having fresh flowers around. They brighten my day.  I just wanted to let you all know how lucky I am =)

Ok, now to business: FOOD!

Meal Food Calories
Breakfast Cereal 120
Skim 80
Snack 1 tortilla 101
Lunch Salad bar 324
Drink Soy iced white choc. Raspberry mocha 360
Dinner Tempura vegetables 270
1 sushi 44
Total 1299

My mocha was as many calories as a meal! I typically just drink chai lattes but I was craving something sweet. And in case you’re wondering, the newly weds had a lovely time on their mini-moon!  It was great catching up with them and hanging with my friends again. Yesterday was also mine and Daniel’s First Date Anniversary so after coffee with everyone we went back to where the magic happened at this delicious sushi restaurant called Green Tea. We split an order of the tempura vegetables and the diamond roll.

The tempura had cucumber, sweet potato, mushrooms, broccoli, and onion. After eating that I was so full I only had one piece of the sushi. The rest we ate today! The diamond roll has asparagus, spicy salmon, cream cheese, scallion, and chili sauce.  Amazing!

Ok I really need to buckle down. I have been going over my calorie intake for probably a week (or more)!!! I also have been failing to incorporate exercise. Yesterday, Daniel and I took a walk around the park but that doesn’t take much effort. Don’t worry though, I worked out today! I’ll give the details tomorrow.

As for the rest of my day I plan to finally get more progress done on my chairs. I’m going to attempt to return that 2-in-1 stain and get something more suitable for my needs. Who knew DIY was so much work. Pinterest makes it look so easy.
