I love surprises. I’ve had a ton of them since I’ve been back at my apartment. Such as the holiday package from Popchips that was waiting for me when I got home on Friday:
I didn’t even see it coming! Jeff and I have been snacking on them all weekend. We love Popchips!
Another surprise in my mailbox looked like this:
The first issue of the Cooking Light subscription my mom got me for Christmas! YAY! (Thank you Mommy!)
On Sunday morning, I was pleasantly surprised that the sandwich maker Jeff got from his parents for Christmas…
…made better French Toast than I can make in a frying pan.
I wasn’t surprised at all by the crazy number of people at my gym on my first day back. Ahh New Year’s Resolutions! I’m also not going to be surprised when the chaos dies down in February.
Lunch on Sunday wasn’t really a surprise either:
Salad comprised of Romaine, Tomatoes, Broccoli, Baby Carrots, Green Pepper, Walnuts, and a Tbsp of Lemon Tarragon Dressing on top. Plus baby carrots and celery sticks on the side with Monkey Boy PB and Sabra Chipotle Hummus for dipping. (BTW- the Monkey Boy PB is so good!!)
I guess you can say that I was surprised that the Sabra Chipotle Hummus was so spicy.
Still very yummy though!
I was not surprised by how good Sunday’s dinner was.
Jeff and I love the Vegetarian Taco Mix from Fantastic World Foods and not only because I’ve decided to become a vegetarian. (miss that post? Click here) We’ve made it a couple times in the past.
I topped my whole wheat tortilla with about 1/2 cup of the mix, chopped romaine, chopped tomatoes, chopped green peppers, shredded cheddar, Frank’s Red Hot, and Sabra Chipotle Hummus.Holy Yum!!!!!
We had corn on the side. It was a fantastic dinner. Haha- I’m so corny. Haha corny! Corn! Get it?!?! Nevermind.
Dessert was another piece of Zucchini Bread
Topped with PB and Dark Chocolate Chips. Sooo Good! I love the zucchini sticking out of it too!
Have you had any surprises lately?
Have a great Wednesday!
















Aw, what a cool surprise! I’m waiting for my Popchips package to arrive, too.
your french toast looks SO good!!
I have only tried POP chips once, and I wasn’t a huge fan of the kind I bought … I maybe need to try them again.
No surprises lately – that I can remember.
I am really jealous of that sandwich maker, it looks so awesome!!!
Mmm everything looks so good! That sandwich maker is awesome… I should definatly look into them for the dorm next year!
Have an awesome day!
VERY FUN surprises! Especially the popchips! We used to have one of those sandwich maker thingers when I was little and I remember always making these ghetto pizza pockets. I’d put a slice of american cheese on bread, top it w/my mom’s home made meat sauce (marinara would work well too!) another slice of cheese and the final slice of bread. Home made hot pocket!
I love getting surprises in the mail, it’s so much fun. Enjoy those popchips!
I was surprised when Hunni made a bigger committment to fitness than I thought he would. He doesn’t like the weight he’s gained with the craziness of Kettles during Christmas and is committing to running a 10K with me and a half marathon and doing the EA Active since he doesn’t like gym weights. I’m super surprised but happy.
