WIAW: Girls Day

Oh hey, you bunch of do-gooders 🙂

It’s that time of day week again.

 

And a Happy WIAW to you all.  After (repeat, after) you read this post you should probably over to Peas and Crayons and leave our hostess some love.  Try not to get hooked and spend hours reading other WIAW posts.

I’ve already expressed my love for Sunday, but did you know I love Tuesday just as much?  I know, Tuesday is kind of a random day to enjoy but for some reason my manager always schedules my day off for that day so I’ve come to love it.

I don’t however, love waking up early and running on Tuesday…

Pre-Run Fuel:

Leftover half of a coconut cream Larabar.

But I busted out a fast run.  Like a 8:30 fourth mile.  Say what?!

That kind of speed hasn’t happened in months.

Breakfast:

Peaches and Cream Oatmeal.

Topped with cinnamon swirl coffee cake, freezer jam, maple almond butter and good old classic peanut butter.

Served with an un-pictured mug of my favorite lemon ginger tea.

Tea and hot oatmeal?  I must be in the Fall mood already.  Even though it felt hot as hell yesterday.

After breakfast, some blog reading and cleaning, I dashed over to get a massage from my mom. <— Note my new page!

Secrets to injury-free half marathon training = stretching, yoga, rest and free massages 😛

My sister met up with us afterwards and the three girls headed out for lunch.

Guess whose is whose.

I’ll give you a hint.  Those are chicken tacos and a chicken bowl.

 Vegetarian salad with pinto beans, fajita veggies, mild and corn salsa.

Chipotle love.

And two hours later I was a-starving.

I was also camping out at my parents office, playing with my mom’s iPhone while she slaved away at balancing her checkbook, and lucky for me my dad always has snacks on hand.

Afternoon Snack:

Rice cake, peanut butter and honey for the win!

Eaten in the car while I forced my sister to chauffeur me to the Nordstrom Rack sale.

Tiny cup of water I stole from my parents’ office on the side.

I don’t want to talk about the sale.  It was less than satisfactory.

But I brushed it off, grabbed my mom and the girls headed to the Broomfield Farmers’ Market instead.

I guess it wasn’t all girls…

Snagged a handful of this guy’s kettle corn.

Tasty!

Then I finally let my mom and sister go and headed home.

And started on dinna.

Roasted tomatoes, peaches and onion, tossed in olive oil, salt, pepper, cinnamon and chili pepper.

Interesting, no?

Delicious, yes!

 Dinner:

Pasta with Tomato-Peach Sauce.

I thought this was great!

I used basil instead of tarragon because, well, I had a huge bag of it.  Plus I have no idea what tarragon actually tastes like.  Basil is safe.

Loved.

We both went back for seconds 🙂

I’m off to tackle my daily to-do list.  Happy WIAW!
