My favorite grocery store
I walked into my favorite grocery store last night. The one I miss dearly since I'm often at the manfriend's, yet still paying rent and utilities at the place I don't frequent. I sighed. I used to walk the aisles of this place once, twice and maybe three times a week just taking a gander at their beautiful organic goods, baked section of sin and plethora of wine/beer. And oh, I purchased a few (x 100) things too for my various cooking and baking adventures.
Because these days, I shop at a more generic, less organic-available type grocery store near the man's. It makes me sad. But once I walked into my grocery store, it was time to do some damage. And although Tom's organic apricot deodorant and Ricotta cheese (for the lasagna I'm making tonight) were all I had on the mental list, apparently breakfast was on the brain.
Because this is what I ended up with (and mind you, I already have two opened boxes of fabulous cereal at home, as well as oatmeal and bread for toast)...
24 oz box of honey almond granola - (locally made and YUM, YUM, YUMMY!)
32 oz of nf plain yogurt (locally made!)
1 box of vanilla/almond clustered cereal
1 peach
1 nectarine
Ricotta cheese
Basil
Moral of the story is, breakfast is the most important meal. So why go hungry when you could go for the glory!
Today's breakfast: Nancy's nf yogurt, a scoop of granola, a scoop of TJ's flax cereal, a handful of blueberries, 1 diced peace and a dash of cinnamon!
Happy Tuesday everyone! Do you play favorites when it comes to your grocery store or do you just shop where it's cheapest or closest? After my Monday night runs, I often make a stop by Trader Joe's bc I freaking love that place and the running store where the group meets just happens to be right next to it. Fabulous little coincidence.
PS-Last night's 5 miler was TOUGH. Legs/butt were still sore from hiking and the lungs weren't so pleased with my attempts to run. K and I made it (although I forced us to walk twice for a minute or so each) and I feel better for it. Now it's time to take it easy for the rest of the week, get in some miles, but nothing serious because HTC is almost here!
