Day 142
Made some good money tonight at work. Came home and made myself something to eat.
For Dinner: Sauteed broccoli and mushrooms with garlic and spicy sauce.
I feel like I might be getting a little sick. I am trying to stay on top of it, I don't want to be sick! I am going to go to bed, and get some much needed sleep!

Day 142
For Breakfast: Cheerios and Rice Milk.
Got up and kicked my butt in the cycling class this morning. It was the most intense class we've had so far! I felt like a wet noodle when I was walking up the stairs to my classes this morning. Cassi and I went to Trader Joe's today after class! I certainly did need some things!
For Lunch: Multi-grain seeded Baguette toasted with tuna, artichoke hearts, capers and olives, with lemon, olive oil, dill, salt, and pepper. With organic sliced honey crisp apples.
I was just looking at my blog and figured out how to input photos into my posts, so from now on I will be able to put my food pictures right next to their description, I will still post everything on the slideshow, but now I can do it here too!

Day 141
For Dinner: 2 eggs. a cup of low fat granola and non-fat vanilla yogurt and a couple of celery sticks with organic peanut butter. It's just about all I have in the apartment.
I'm almost finished doing laundry and getting ready to settle in to watch The Biggest Loser. I have to make it to bed early tonight so I get up for my cycling class in the morning. It will feel good to get back after a whole week of not being at the gym.

Day 141
For Breakfast: Just coffee again.
Went to class and went to have lunch with Carly. She is a friend of mine here in Seattle and I haven't seen her for months.
For Lunch: Spinach salad with grilled salmon onion, walnuts, and mushrooms with avocado and lemon juice. Espresso and a couple of bites of a whipped cheesecake.
I need to get back into my routine of cooking everything. My blog is supposed to be about preparing everything that I put into my body, this is hard to do. I need to go grocery shopping but I don't have the cash, so I am trying to ride it out eating granola for dinner and grabbing lunch where I can, which is completely backwards because I am spending more money on eating out than if I went grocery shopping and prepared myself something. I am exhausted but I have to do lots of studying tonight and some laundry.
I am watching a documentary right now called "Food Matters" it is good. It's about eating well, and what it can do for your health. If you haven't watched it, you should check it out, it's SO interesting!

Day 138 (Saturday Jan. 30th)
We woke up early and put our party hats on!
For Breakfast: two eggs and a multi-grain english muffin. Coffee. Later on I had two mimosas, Orange juice and champagne, those are so good!
We walked into town and watch the parade, which was fantastic and quite large for a small town like McCall. All fifteen of us strolled around the town looking at the vender stands and seeing the sights. after the parade we went to the beer garden. I had two beers during the time we were there, which was almost 4 hours, not too bad. Next to the beer garden there was a stage and live music played all day, we danced our booties off for hours!
For lunch: Cassi and I shared an order of veggie noodle stir-fry. By far, not the healthiest decision. We got it at one of the stands at the carnival, it was called "Island Noodles"
I had one more drink later on in the day, it was a cocktail with a new kind of Vodka that is apparently all the rave! It's called SweetTea and it tastes exactly like fresh brewed Iced Tea with some sugar. That and water on ice, it was amazingly tasty, and dangerous.
Cassi and I broke off from the group later on and went to dinner at a restaurant in McCall called The Mill. Apparently its the best place in town.
For Dinner: Grilled Halibut with Lemon and garlic mashed potatoes. It was very good. We also had bread before the meal came out and a small salad came with, I had mine with a homemade italian dressing.
After Dinner Cassi and I walked back to the condos and relaxed, everybody else went out on the town but Cassi, Teresa, and I stayed behind and played clean up. We tidied everything up and washed the dishes, we figured it would make for an easier morning, we had to be out by 10.

Day 137 (Friday Jan. 29th)
We stayed at Teresa's place and woke up super early to get on the road nice and early.
For Breakfast: Baked oatmeal with cinnamon, nutmeg and cranberries, this was a dish that Teresa's mom made for us and it was really good! Coffee.
We got up to McCall at about 10:30 and got into our condos. We rented two big condos side by side, about a 5 minute walk from the town. They were beautiful! Big balconies and a great view, and because Cassi and I came up nice and early we got to pick our bedroom! Teresa and her Mom went skiing up on the mountain and because of my knee Cassi and I stayed down and explored the town. We took so many pictures and they will be up on the slide show right away! Winter Carnival has these snow sculptures all over town and Cassi and I took pictures of as many as possible. In the evening, when everybody got home from skiing and boarding we all went to the hot springs. there was fifteen of us all together and we carpooled up to Gold Fork Hot Springs. I had never been to one before and I was absolutely blown away. I was a designated driver tonight and was happy to do it, everybody else was getting pretty silly, Cassi and I stayed collected. It was a full moon and the ski was clear, we relaxed in natural water that was over 100 degrees, it was amazing, there was snow all around us! It felt good too, Cassi and I did so much walking around today, and we even went ice-skating, which was funny.
For Lunch: We Went to this little cafe and wine bar in town called Bistro 45, I had a grilled, open faced sandwich with hummus, cucumber, onion, tomato with sprouts and a little salad of greens with a huckleberry vinaigrette. I had a glass of Pinot Gris too, we were feeling frisky.
For Dinner: After the hot springs we came home and everybody ate dinner. Teresa and her mom had made a huge thing of Chicken enchiladas, but I cooked myself a chicken breast on the grill and had a green salad to go with. I had two cocktails and I chose wisely, I want to make sure if I was going to drink, I wasn't going to drink anything too heavy. I had two vodka and sodas with lots of lime.
This was a wonderful day.

Day 136 (Thursday Jan. 28th)
For Breakfast: Just Coffee.
I went to class this morning and then came then went straight to lunch with my parents.
For Lunch: Salmon Caesar salad from Hale's Brewery, not that good.
Cassi and I left for our Idaho trip, We are both so excited! At the airport we had a nonfat latte and then we were off!
On the plane: A small glass of their featured beer, a Black Tusk Ale from Whistler Brewing Company. Horizon airlines provides complimentary beer and wine, and their always from great local companies.
We landed in Boise and got picked up by Teresa, who we were both excited to see. Then she took us out on the town for a nice dinner at a fun place, but I forget the name of it, it was a distillery.
For Dinner: Mixed Greens with Seared Ahi tuna and cucumber, with a sesame wasabi vinaigrette, and one beer, a Laganitas.
I decided I would let myself have a few drinks this weekend. I didn't want to put any restriction on myself that I didn't want to abide by. I was on vacation and I felt it was appropriate to participate, I had to be careful though, any tolerance that I ever had for alcohol is gone, I am one heck of a cheap date!
