One Month Anniversary
First and most important I want to say, Happy Anniversary Patrick! My husband and I have officially been married for one month today. I am so lucky to have found him and have him in my life from this point on. I love him with all my heart and more!
This morning’s breakfast was healthy for me and tasted good too. Can’t beat that! To drink I had some Tazo Awake tea. I’m really liking this stuff. It is a blend of black teas and is a tea of boldness, depth and character, invigorating any time of day (at least that is what the package says). I would have to agree this tea has been doing a nice job of keeping me awake and alert instead of my normal latte.
I was really hungry this morning but did not have the time to make breakfast. Actually the only time I make breakfast is on the weekends because I’m just not awake enough during the work week mornings. I grabbed a Banana Nut Odwalla bar. I’ve had these before so I knew it would do the trick of filling me up and it doesn’t hurt that it tastes fantastic. It is kind of sweet and has a little crunch to it.
Lunch was so satisfying. I had Mongolian stir fry which consisted of carrots, cabbage, celery, green peppers, lettuce leaves, onions, broccoli and chicken with a spicy chili sauce. All of these wonderful veggies were placed on top of half cup white rice. Nothing bad to say about this dish, pretty healthy and I got some protein.
And for dinner I ordered, yet again, the Asian Chicken Salad at Ceres.

The hubby and I usually go out and have a nice dinner and hotel stay. A night without our son is a nice treat, but we miss him like crazy. I hope you enjoy your day off. I wish I wasn't at work right now.

Hi Emily!
The Pumpkin Martini had the following in it…
Absoulte Vodka
Creme de Cocoa
Irish Creme
A splash of Pumpkin Spice Simple Syrup.
I believe the Pumpkin Spice Simple syrup was Torani brand. You can find it on Amazon. Don't know for sure but I think this was the brand.
If you make it be sure to let me know how you like it!
