Una Fiesta de Colores

by Hillary on July 15, 2010

Hello & Happy – almost – Friday!

I really have nothing profound to share tonight. It was just another ordinary day for The Nutrition Nut on the run. It went a little something like this:

8:00am: roll outta bed.

8:10am: toast a piece of zucchini bread + boil tea water.

8:20am: eat + read [blogs, of course].

9:00am: shower + dress.

9:55am: in the car.

10:00am – 12:00pm: work.

12:30 – 1:15pm: quick lunch with mom.

1:30 – 1:50pm: dentist appt. to polish my pearly whites.

2:00 – 5:30pm: watch the little rascals.

6:00 – 6:26pm: runnn.

7:00pm: decide what to make for dinner. off to the store…

7:30ish: voila!

Sounds like a lovely day! My day was an hour of P90X in the morning, walked to work, sat at work for several hours, walked home for lunch, walked BACK to work, worked for several MORE hours, registered for a MARATHON (!!!), ate popcorn and a smoothie for dinner while watching old episodes of Scrubs, in bed before 9PM. Now if that is not a day to envy, I cannot imagine what is. ;)

Typical days are sometimes the best. I had no idea Food Should Taste Good now has BLUE chips. Need to look for these! :)

Colorful, Mexican inspired food is a favorite of mine. Can’t go wrong with anything Mexican-ish. Looks yummy!

I am a day late on this but I am going to the Indiana Dunes today. It is my first time going and I am so excited!!

I saw you went to the dentist and I don’t know your feelings on that but I definitely cringed a bit. I haatteeee the dentist. I don’t know if it’s all the random little instruments or the fact that your mouth is, like, clamped open. Either way, the dentist is really not my favorite place to be, lol.

Haha love this post! Too funny. It definitely looks like my school days. Otherwise my nannying days it’s: wake up, dressed, food, nanny, nanny, nanny, nanny (11 1/2 hours), home, food, shower, bed. And read a blog or two somewhere in there. I bet you’re very glad it’s the weekend though!
