WIAW Sick Day and Five Things Survey!

Happy Wednesday! Wednesday means WIAW, so as usual I’m linking up with Jenn’s WIAW party!

I’ve been a tad under the weather (I think from a combination of seeing sick family members and being semi-exhausted), so my eats are all from my day at home yesterday. Enjoy!

 

I woke up with a fever, but thought I would still try to go to work. I put together my favorite breakfast of yogurt and berries and cereal (Cranberry Macademia Nut). It was delicious, but too much food for someone not feeling great! I have to remember to listen to my body.

I made it at work for about 25 minutes for an appointment and then went home. Like my co-worker said, the work will still be here tomorrow! I went home, laid on the couch, and dozed off while watching TV.

At lunch, all I could do was crave Starbucks. Don’t ask why. Since I found a gift card (what luck!), I drove over and got a grande chai latte with soy, extra hot and a piece of banana walnut bread. (I also justified going to Starbucks because I needed to stop at the grocery store for supplies!).

Starbucks was good, but it didn’t hold me over. At 3pm I was craving real food. Last night I made lemon pepper chicken and broccoli, so I popped my leftovers in the microwave for a late lunch/super early dinner.

My early dinner was tasty, but didn’t hold me over. At about 8, I put together a tortilla and cheese quesadilla for a late snack. It really hit the spot!
