First of all, I tried the roasted chickpeas using ranch dressing mix and oh. my. gosh. They are amazing. I also made taco seasoning ones and they were delicious too but the ranch ones are definitely my favorite! When you let them get a little crunchy they taste like corn nuts!!! I still highly recommend them.
I actually ran last night!!! I hadn't run since last Thursday because Friday we left for Disneyland, we were there Saturday and Sunday and on Monday Josh and I went to sleep at 6:30pm because we hadn't gotten home until 3am that morning!! I did 6 miles last night...it was pretty tough, the last 2 miles were the worst. I feel a lot better that I did it though! I'm planning on running 6 more tonight, 4 tomorrow morning, 6 on Friday and 5 on Saturday morning. That'll put me at 110 miles completed as of Saturday. Yay! I can't wait to cross that 100 mile mark.
Now for the bad....6 week 6 pack has fallen into the dust in our house. :(
We are lame people. I've been trying to put more time into running and we have such limited time together on weeknights after you factor in running time and making/eating dinner time that it's hard for us to take the time to do that workout too. Especially since we've been right at the wire for a lot of wedding projects and we've been trying to get those done (*cough* Invitations have to go out by this Saturday *cough*) during these past few weeks. Hopefully we can get back into it but we haven't been making it a priority lately. *Hangs head in shame*
Tomorrow our friends Chris and Sarah are coming for dinner and I'm going to be making salmon patty pita bread sandwiches (I made it up, can you tell? I need to come up with a cooler name...) and asparagus with wild rice and fruit salad. Sarah's birthday was yesterday so I'm searching for a vegan dessert recipe right now! Here are some of the options:
-Vegan Chocolate Cake
-Vegan Chocolate Cupcakes
-Almond vanilla cupcakes with salted caramel frosting (the same kind that I made for our engagement shoot)
-Some kind of vegan cookie...
What's your vote??
Mmm I really want to make those chickpeas!! That sounds so perfect! I am always looking for a snack while studying, and sometimes (very rarely!) I have to resort to the vending machine of the library:/
ReplyDeleteI didn't get to run yesterday because after I got out of class, it was about 6pm, it started absolutely POURING! It rained for the next 3 hours. I would have done the treadmill, but there was no way for me to get to the gym without being soaked. *sigh* oh well. I honestly have absolutely no idea where I am in the challenge...so I am officially lame too haha.
I vote for Chocolate Cake!!!
