Hodgepodge of Meals
So the pictures of Thursdays lunch are not that great because my husband made it known that he really didn’t want the camera at lunch. I respected his wishes and left the camera but I did have a camera on my phone so I used that ;).
What can I say, I like taking pictures of my food. It’s an addiction, I’m sure 😉
Thursday Eats
We went to a Thai restaurant and I started off with a very refreshing cucumber salad. This salad reminds me of a dish my family always made for picnics. One of my favorites!
Since this was a “new to me” Thai place I had to try the Pad Thai:
It was good but I didn’t really like the chicken and I felt the dish could use a little spice. No problem, the server brought over some awesome sauce that gave the noodles a hit of spice with great flavor!
Dinner
Turkey, cheddar and mustard sandwich on a bagel thin:
Served with a cup of Amy’s vegetable soup:
I’m really liking the bagel thins as sandwich bread. They taste great and I like that they are only 100 calories!

Friday Eats
Breakfast
Tall skinny latte:
Lunch
The weather was cold and rainy so I felt I needed something warm and comforting for lunch. For me that means soup. Fresh spicy chicken soup:
Dinner
Keeping along with our Pizza Fridays I chowed down on tombstone pepperoni pizza:

Saturday Eats
Breakfast
I had an early afternoon event to get to (I will post about it tomorrow ) so on the way I stopped at Caribou.
Northern lights vanilla latte:
Lunch
Small plate of kale salad, sweet potato and parsnip puree and fish:
Even though the plate above looks big, it really wasn’t that much food. So when I got home i did what I did when I was little, poped open a can of spaghetti o’s:
Snack
A perfect snack of fresh organic strawberries:
Dinner
Husband made me some ravioli with meat sauce topped with grated parmesan cheese:

Sunday Eats
Patrick and I decided to go to a nice restaurant for Easter brunch. I decided to just enjoy the food and company and left my camera at home. I did have my camera phone but it stayed in my bag all throughout dinner.
You will have to take my word for it that it was a fantastic brunch!
I will share this picture:
A deliciously small bowl of Edy’s Girl Scout ice cream!
I hope everyone had a fantastic weekend!
Question:
Do the people around you ever get tired of you taking pictures (all the time) for your blog (if you have one)?

Easter brunch- one of my fav holiday meals!
People around me that know about the blog are pretty used to the weirdness. Others that don’t, I try to be discreet and quick or they just don’t say anything… lol

I know all about trying to be discreet. I’ve pretended like I’m checking my phone at the table so that I can sneak a picture of my meal. Doesn’t really work when the flash goes off! oops!

We had an amazing Easter Brunch too – so fun!
I did take pictures because I had good natural light, but normally in restaurants I prefer to enjoy the meal!

My boyfriend used to get embarresed with I would be taking pics of food in restaurants. Now, 5 months later he’s just like “whatever” haha.

At first my husband didn’t know what to think about my urge to photograph everything – but after a while he understood and is supportive when I bust out my camera. I’m sure to anyone who doesn’t blog, it may be a little odd. I’ve just learned to embrace it! 🙂
