Hey peeps! It is almost Friday!!!!!!!!!! Today stared out great because the hubby woke me up and told me he had made waffles :-0

I had 1/2 a whole wheat waffle with almond butter spread on it, a sliced banana, and a teensy tiny drizzle of syrup:





Lunch was left over tofu and bean chili from the other day (I will spare you the picture, because it looks down-right-disgusting in the pic. It tasted good though). I also had these guys:



I know I have been having this combo a lot lately - but you should see the enormous bag of pears that we bought. And the giant bag of babybel cheese. Delish.

After a busy day at work, I coached a v-ball game, and then went to the lab for a couple hours. I was starving by the time I got home, so supper had to be something quick and easy. I had a grilled cheese sandwich:



That I dipped in ketchup of course. Do you dip your grilled cheese in ketchup? If not, you must try it ... it is the only way my dears ... the only way.

I also had a small bowl of tomato soup, because duh ... they go together:



I sprinkle a couple little pieces of cheese into my soup - it makes it better.

This dinner just didn't cut it for me today. I was still hungry after eating it, and needed something else. I whipped up a quick smoothie containing:

- 1 cup unsweetened vanilla almond breeze
- some blueberries
- 1 scoop chia seeds
- 1 berry apple sauce cup
- 1 pack of amazing grass (berry flavoured) powder





After dinner I made Halloween treat bags for the kids in my class, and now I have to figure out how I am going to dress up for work tomorrow ...

What are your Halloween plans? Do you dress up at work? What are you giving the trick or treaters?

Brunch with Friends

Before I forget ... last night I had a snack. I had a mini baby bell cheese and 5 crackers:





This morning I got up and got brunch ready. Our friends are in town from Calgary for thanksgiving so we invited them for brunch today. I ate a small Glo Bar while getting brunch ready, since I was up at 9:00 and we weren't eating until 11:00.



I set the table, and started putting the spread out:





Strawberries for the whole wheat waffles:



Fruit for the chocolate fondue dessert:





We made whole wheat Belgium waffles with strawberries and fresh whipped cream, bacon (duh), and mini frittatas.

I had half a waffle with strawberries/ whip cream:



And 3 mini fritattas (I went back for one more after this helping):



And about 10, 000 pieces of bacon (I took 3 to start):



Altogether now:



Our lovely friends showed up with a bottle of Champagne and some POM wonderful :-) No wonder we like these people! We made mimosas obviously.



And because it was 5:00 somewhere, I decided heck ... why not have an orange mimosa as well:



I chased it with coffee.

We finished our brunch the only logical way - with chocolate fondue.



This wonderful meal kept me stuffed all day. I spent the afternoon having tea with my dad, going to some show homes with him, and then my dad took me out for supper to Korea House where I had Bee Bim Bop (hot stone - sorry no pic - but it is the same as what I had about a week ago).

I was going to do homework tonight ...
but homework makes me want to vomit so I decided not to.
