Friday Night Drinks

It’s Friday and for those of you who read my blog you know that means it’s After-Work Drinks night with my husband 🙂

Patrick and I enjoy this little activity because it gives us time to sit and chat about a couple things.

• We discuss what has happened during the work week, the good, the bad and the ugly.
• We share what we would both like to accomplish over the weekend.
• Most importantly it’s a way for us to de-stress after a long work week.

Friday After-Work Drinks (done in moderation) is a great way to kick-off the weekend 😀

Breakfast

Same old breakfast of vanilla Chobani yogurt topped with pumpkin pecan granola.  Tastes great and filling.  Perfect combo 🙂

Lunch

I’ve tried the Red Machine and Green Machine Naked Juices so it was time for me to check out the Blue Machine:

The Blue Machine was good but I was really hoping it would have more of a Blackberry taste instead of the strong Blueberry flavor.  My favorite is still the Red Machine 😀

As with all the Naked juices, the ingredients are simple and good for you:

The Fruit Inside

• 27 Blueberries
• 3 Blackberries
• 3 1/4 Apples
• 1 Banana

The Boost Inside

• 38 mg Vitamin B3
• 11 mcg Vitamin B12
• 114 mg Vitamin C
• 19 mg Vitamin B5
• 4 mg Vitamin B6
• 13 g Fiber
• 57  IU Vitamin E

I’ve decided Friday’s will be Freshii days 🙂  Which means it will also be soup or salad days.

This Friday I went with a salad.  My salad included romaine lettuce, shaved parmesan, carrots, broccoli, celery, sweet corn, cucumbers, red onions, sunflower seeds and cajun chicken with balsamic vinegar.  I also asked them to chop everything for me.

And boy did they ever.  This salad was so chopped I could of eaten it with a spoon.

My husband likes to have big pieces of salad but I’m a fan of having everything chopped up.  This way I get a little bit of everything in every bite I take.  Plus I don’t get stuff all over my face from trying to shove a huge piece of lettuce in my mouth 😉

After-Work Drinks

This Friday was extra fun because I had an order of sweet potato chips along with my root beer.

The chips were really good.  They seasoned them with pepper and salt which was the perfect seasoning.

Question:

What do you do on Friday’s to help kick-off the weekend?
