Good day to all of you!!
I am JUST as excited as all of you that I have …
ONE: completed my first half marathon (Oct 2)
TWO: turned 26 (October 4)
THREE: Gave myself a birthday present… of another half marathon… in 9 days…
Thank you all so, so much for all of the kind comments, tweets, emails, facebook messages, etc over the past couple of days. You all warm my heart so much. I have a wonderful support network here on the interwebz.. and am so grateful for each and every one of you.
But, I am sure you are not here to listen to me pour my heart out and bow down at your feet, kissing the ground you walk upon. You are here to see some eats.. here to party.. at the What I Ate Wednesday Party…
Can we all give a HUGE sigh of relief that lil Miss Jenn at Peas and Crayons (the creator of this wonderful party..) has internet now! And is doing a super job decorating and accessorizing her new pad!!
Before I begin.. a few truths:
I did not eat this food on Wednesday. (This is nearly impossible since it posted at 5am).
I did not eat all of this food on Tuesday, either.
But, I did eat all of this food in my last couple of days as a young 25 year old.
Now that I have that off of my chest, lets get this on!
Breakfast noms:
Cottage Cheese, Cocoa Powder, Almond Milk, uncooked oats, and fresh strawberries. Absolutely delicious. Perhaps more of a dessert then anything. BUT. I am okay with eat a dessert like meal at any time of day.
Some mid-day grub:
The classic that I get just about every time I go to Subway. Turkey on Whole Wheat with lettuce, onions, peppers, cucumbers, pickles, and spicy mustard. And some apples. And some water. Subway apparently is not longer selling Light and Fit Yogurt. Instead that have their own parfait. Not a fan. I’d like my Light and Fit back, please.
Dinner Eats:
Yea turkey burger with mango salsa! My days with this piece of deliciousness will likely be numbered.. as mango salsa seems for like a summer food. Annnd.. burgers are also scarce in the meal rotation during the winter.
And my favorite treat of the week:
Chocolate and vanilla swirl frozen yogurt with fresh strawberries on top. GET IN MY BELLY!!

Are there foods that you don’t eat during the colder months? Do you try and eat them a little bit more at the end of the summer because you know they won’t be making an appearance for a while…?

Hmm, I don’t eat salad so much in the winter months, and I probably eat soups and roasted vegetables more in the summer!!
Your breakfast looks delicious!

I’ve been popping berries (strawbs, blueberries, blackberries) like they are going out of style b/c well, they are for a few months! Once I find all the berries coming from south american I try to resist buying them. 1. they taste like crap and 2. I’m not down with importing my fruit from thousands of miles away just to get my fix.

I feel relieved hearing someone else telling food to get in their belly

I’m not a fan of Subway’s parfait either. I do love ice cream year round it’s the best!
Heather @ Girlyeverafter recently posted..WIAW and Potential Container Lady
I hate when pre-made parfaits are the only yogurt option. They’re usually a let-down.
Love the chocolate oats concoction with the berries, though! I do a hot version of that all the time. So good…

What kind of birthday cake did you have!?
I’m starting to crave hot chocolate with the cold fall mornings
Melissa recently posted..I Will Try to Fix You…
I don’t eat as much fruit in the winter because I feel like the fresh stuff isn’t very good. I usually only eat like apples, bananas, and citrus fruits in the colder months it seems like!
Abby @ Abz ‘n’ Oats recently posted..checking in
I eat as many (turkey) burgers, smoothies, and berries before the summer leaves us. Those are some of my favorite foods, so I’m always sad to see them leave for awhile. Your chocolate/vanilla froyo with strawberries looks like my kinda treat! Yum!

I’m all about warm comforting foods in the winter and cool refreshing foods in the summer. Bring on the oatmeal!

Fresh strawberries make everything look amazing, but I am really impressed with your breakfast! Cocoa cottage cheese? Yum.
I don’t eat berries to often during the winter. Just because they’re not in season and don’t taste as good! I go for fall\winter fruits like apples, pears and tangerines!
