One Month

Had a super busy weekend, but I still got my workouts in!

Saturday we had a BBQ with a bunch of friends and watched the Texas A&M v. Arkansas game. I convinced the grill master to make BBQ chicken, and volunteered to bring all the side dishes, that way I would know exactly what I was eating. On the menu:  a huge bowl of watermelon, ginger and sriracha deviled eggs with greek yogurt instead of mayo, and pasta salad with whole grain pasta and TONS of veggies. Also, we made berry cobbler with a rolled oats and poppyseed topping. I meant to take pictures of everything to post on here, but I forgot :( Regardless, everyone loved our food, and Caroline and I liked that we weren't eating typically BBQ crap like chips and store bought potato salad.

Below is our breakfast Saturday morning. Homemade breakfast tacos with egg & potato on corn & whole what tortillas, and lots of yummy fruit. Way more healthy, and way more delicious than anything we might have bought at a mexican restaurant. And also faster might I point out?! So many things that normally people would go buy somewhere, Caroline and I have found that it is just as easy and quick if not faster to make those things ourselves. We haven't gone out for breakfast tacos, pizza, burgers, almost anything in a couple months now. And I haven't been craving any of it because I get my fix with healthier, cheaper options made at home!

I woke up today sad that it was time to get back into studying and looking for an internship mode. I am honestly having a hard time getting back in gear, hence why I am avoiding studying by writing this blog post! This fall season that is creeping up on us makes me want to decorate the apartment and bake pies all day (bad plan because then I will want to eat the pies). Maybe this week I can put up some decorations and enjoy a pumpkin pie scented candle, that should curb my cravings, right?
