I love the texture of steel cut oats but they make me mad because they take too long to cook and the serving size stinks!! Maybe if I bulked it up with a bunch of stuff it’d be better :)

My favorite sandwich is peanut butter and jelly! haha.

Best thing I ate today: my pumpkin cookies I made!

And the planks making you dizzy.. hmm are you doing them after cardio? The blood might be in all of your extremities making you feel light headed!

i’ve never been a huge fan of steel cut oats – i’m kinda grateful so that i don’t have to wait for them (i’m so impatient). i think my fave sandwich is probably a pb&j or a grilled cheese. i’m such a child.

Agreed!! Although, I hear Ottawa is a bit of a poutine hub as well. My big sis lives there and she says it’s reallyreally good there (probably the Hull influence no doubt ;) )

Ahhh!! You tried poutine!! Isn’t it the greatest? I mean, how can you go wrong with fries, gravy and cheese :) It’s “the” after-bar food here. There’s vendors everywhere at 3am and it’s ohsogooood.

Hm, sorry about the dizziness! I hope that stops!! I love the sauce you whipped up for that pasta – LC is so versatile!

I am a big fan of good, old PBJs or caprese panini. OH! Anything with a marinated portobello calls my name as well :)

I know I’m a bit late for the random job part, but this made me smile:

“Heidi is an usher at an amphitheatre where she gets to see concerts for free and even Obama!”

Why? Because I’m an usher as well. I get to see all sorts of concerts for free as well and a few weeks ago Bill Clinton gave a lecture there. The funny part? I live thousands of miles away for Heidi (in Europe to be more precise).

1) sarnie:
Either: leftover roast turkey (from christmas!) with stuffing and cranberry sauce OR
cheddar cheese and branston pickle!
2) Today: Okay how about yesterday since it’s early? I went out for a slap-up meal with the boy to a steak house and we sampled POUTINE!!!!! I loved it my friend. You’d have been proud. It was ridiculous.

My favorite sandwich is a turkey rueben on pumpernickle bread!

I’m reading this with breakfast so the best thing I’ve eaten would be pumpkin butterscotch muffins and Brown Cow strawberry greek yogurt!

That shrimp pasta looked so tasty!

OMG, my best-friend’s dad eats Miracle Whip and peanut butter sandwiches ALL the time!!! That’s too funny! (and still kinda gross, I can’t do that “tangy zip” of Miracle Whip :P ) I’ll have to tell him to add bananas the next time I see him :D

OK, before I say my favorite sandwich, please keep an open mind… most people at first think this sounds bad, but I usually get them to try it and they end up LOVING it.

My favorite sandwich is peanut butter, miracle whip, and bananas. There is something truly beyond amazing about the combination of the creamy, sweet, peanut butter with the tart miracle whip. Note, this is miracle whip… not mayo! Then you add in the banana, and this is truly a sandwich that you must try!!!!!

Fitting post!

My favorite sandwich is also egg salad ! I make mine with chopped celery, green peppers, a spoon of light mayo, a squirt of mustard and salt and pepper.

Yesterdays lunch was….ironically an egg salad wrap, two flax lavash crackers dipped in Fontaine Sante hummus and a Honey Crisp apple. Yummus!! Definitely my favorite meal of the day.

I kind of sound like a food stalker, don’t I?!

PS…what is it about church functions and the finger sandwiches the little old ladies make? Why are they so darn good?!?!?

Lara, I use Hellman’s Light Mayonnaise. Mayo is another on of those fatty food that gives me tummy pains, so I have to use the light stuff, and use it sparingly. Still pretty good though (fat free, imo, is inedible :P )
