Oh, Karen

Oh, Karen. You always entice me with your healthy soups and sandwiches. Now you’ve got me hooked on your juice, too?!

Monday was the mixed vegetable. Today was the carrot supreme: carrots, banana and vanilla frozen yogurt. It was sweet, creamy and wonderful.

I also had some tuna dill salad (tuna, mayo, dill, celery — I hate mayo, but love this). And a roll.

‘Twas gigantic.

I obviously finished it.

Here’s a shot of my friend Jeremy’s turkey brie sandwich. I’ve had this before and, of course, it is fantastic.

Oh, Karen. You should hire me as your spokesperson…and give me free meals!

So here’s an update about my blogging patterns. Remember last week when I said I was going to blog three times a day? Yeah. Well I don’t think that’s a good idea anymore. I love my fellow food bloggers and reading about all their meals, but I am a creature of habit. As you know, I eat almost the same breakfast everyday, and repeat many other meals. No one wants to see the same ‘ole things over and over again. That said, I will only be posting “unique” meals from now on. I want to post at least once a day, so this will give me an incentive to have more “unique” meals! For example, I almost always get soup or a sandwich from Karen’s. I wanted to be able to post something interesting today, so, I tried something new. Groundbreaking! ;-)

Onwards and upwards!

See you tonight.

Vegelicious

I tried my first vegetable juice today! I ordered the mixed vegetable juice at Karen’s for lunch. It had: carrots, beets, spinach, celery, cucumber and parsley. Vegelicious! It took a minute to get used to, but it actually tasted pretty good! The carrots and beets sweetened it up and the parsley gave it a nice kick.

I also had a split pea soup with a lovely roll on the side :-)

And for dinner…the last of my pasta with pesto, broccoli rabe and cherry tomatoes. This just got better and better as the days went on. I definitely recommend it as a cold salad!

Sad to have finished this…I’ll definitely be making it again! I ate dinner at like 4:45 today. Does that officially make me an old woman? Yikes. I have a water deficit going on today and that was most likely the culprit. Split pea soup almost always holds me over!

Yum-O.

Newsworthy –

I loved the Amateur Gourmet’s Ten Rules for Food Blogging. Check out what Bart wrote on the chalkboard: I will not use a flash in restaurants. Ha! Ask any of my friends who’ve been out to eat with me recently — I am super embarrassed about using the flash, but my camera is so crappy that I need to! Please excuse my horrible photos guys, I have a feeling I’ll have a new camera once graduation rolls around ;-)
