Sushi & Body Pump!

I almost exploded from excitement today. I can’t reveal why just yet but I’ll talk about it soon, I promise! Let’s just say I was running around my apartment shrieking like a crazy person when I got home from my internship.

I had to relieve my energy somehow so I went to Body Pump. I love this class so much! I increased my weight today so I’m going to be sore tomorrow. It’s worth it!

When I got home,  Jeff and I went to Ichiban, a local Japanese & Chinese Restaurant for dinner to celebrate all of my exciting news.

I ordered a glass of Plum Wine to aid in the celebration.

It was good but a little too sweet for me. Jeff ordered Saké.

I tried it and decided that I liked my wine better.

We ordered Vegetable Gyoza (dumplings) to start.

I had two.

For my entree, I decided on the Vegetarian Futomaki

Jeff tried to teach me how to use chopsticks but I failed miserably. I seriously tried for ten minutes before our food came out.

I honestly wasn’t a fan of sushi until today. The futomaki was  filled with so many vegetables-I can’t even remember them all! I remember seeing black mushroom, avocado, and asparagus in the description. It was delicious. And the best part is, I have leftovers for tomorrow!!

It was the perfect celebration dinner! We’ll definitely be going back.

This morning started with a beautiful bowl of banana oats.

• 1/2 cup oats
• 1 cup vanilla almond milk
• 1 banana
• Cinnamon
• Flax seed
• Blueberries
• Cherries

I packed lunch to bring with me to Saratoga for my internship.

• Leftover Veggie Soup
• Slice of Italian Bread
• Odwalla Chocolate Chip Trail Mix bar (didn’t end up eating it)
• Strawberry-Banana Chobani

Whoa- is this flavor new or have I just not had Chobani in a realllllyyyy long time? I’m torn. I liked it at first but then it got too sweet. I’m losing my sweet tooth!

I ate everything above except for the Odwalla bar. I’ve been neglecting to eat it since Saturday when I bought it as a snack on the way to the wedding.

Sorry Odwalla Bar. I’ll eat you eventually. I swear.

Thank you guys so much for your tips on how to make my homemade veggie soup taste better!

I agree- next time I’ll definitely add fresh herbs.

When I got home from my internship, I fueled for pump with a bowl of cheerios.

Well, I’m pooped! Catch you guys tomorrow!

What’s your favorite cuisine?

Have a great Wednesday! <3
