Happy Wednesday all! I absolutely LOVE that you all are as crazy about Biscoff as I am. The Husband doesn’t really get excited over my cookie spread so it’s nice to know that I am not alone in my addiction lol.
This morning I was reluctantly up early after not really sleeping too well the past last night just so I could get on the treadmill and check off my runner girl activity box. I knew that I would be tired either way so I might as well get my run on.
I hopped on the treadmill and rocked a FAST 30 minute jog/walk. I played a few “Treadmill Games” each time I wanted to stop….changing the speed up every 30 seconds so that I focused on the seconds to the next level, not how far the distance was that I needed to go.
Little did I know that my “fast” run would represent how my day would go. I grabbed a banana and some Macadamia Nut Cookie Coffee by Gloria Jean (my new fav) as I got ready.
I did not have a chance to eat breakfast all morning since I pretty much hit the ground running as soon as I walked in the door.
I managed to grab a pluot and light string cheese on my way out the door for my lunchtime off site meeting (SF) – 1 points+
Today was so busy that I felt like I had meetings on top of meetings if that is possible 
I did not have a chance to eat lunch until a little past 2 pm ~ 7 hours past my banana time.
Grilled Teriyaki Chicken with carrots, celery, oranges, 1 Tbsp almond slices on top of spinach with fat free sesame ginger dressing on the side.
Crunchy, salty, sweet, satisfying even when you are starving (SF + 1 WPA) – 5 points+
Plus a big bowl of watermelon for dessert.
The Husband completely surprised me by having dinner ready as soon as I walked in the door.
BBQ Pork “Ribs” ~ pork loin cut into rib shapes (SF) – 4 oz – 4 points+
Trader Joe’s 3 Minute Organic Frozen Brown Rice
1 cup Brown Rice that looks green (that means it’s extra healthy, right?! lol) topped with ICBINB spray sea salt and black pepper. (SF) – 5 points+
Super sweet Farmer’s Market Corn….(SF) – 2 points+
I have actually decided that the yellow/white corn is sweeter than any other variety out there.
He totally earned his Best Husband Ever points+ tonight for making this fast and delicious dinner.
S – I – L – V- E- R L–I–N–I–N–G!
Do you all see all those crunchy cookies inside?!!! Seriously, there are more cookies than spread…..definitely life changing. I can only buy the creamy Biscoff for Biscoff Lattes…..all other things require crunchy!
1 Tbsp = SF + 2 WPA – 2 points+ ~ I added 2 Biscoff Cookies for 2 points+/WPA.

Just TWO more days until the weekend…..but, who is counting 
Night all!
Danica, (1) If you use pre-grilled chicken breast, which brand do you get, AND how do you use the Biscoff Spread in a latte? Thanks, and have a great day!
Hi Nancy,
The chicken is just marinated in teriyaki sauce and grilled – it isn’t pre-grilled, but, that is a fantastic idea. I have made up a bunch before, pre-grilled them and froze them to make my life easier when I do not feel like cooking.
To make a Biscoff Latte, order a normal decaf latte (hot) and stir in 1-2 Tbsp of the Biscoff Spread for one of the richest, creamiest, cookie lattes you will ever have.

OMG that Biscoff is amazing!! My husband and I had to get our OWN jar. I put on a banana..YUMMY!
Thanks for all the sharing you do with your various food finds. I had never seen a pluot in the store until recently and I didn’t know what they were. I tried them based on your recommendation and love them! I appreciate all of your hard work on your blog.
Just love your site!!! Have been enjoying all your simply filling recipes. Could you tell me what you use to measure your calories burned and steps taken please? Got to have that biscoff!!!! Yum!
Hi Diana,
I currently use a Body Media Device, you might hear me refer to it as my BM….bad abbreviation. I switched to it after using a Body Bugg for about 4 years and I absolutely love it. I plan on doing a comparison post of Body Bugg, Body Media (both made by the same company) and Active Link (now being sold at Weight Watchers) soon.
Here is a link where I talk a little bit about my BM.

Feel free to email and ask any questions you have and I”ll be glad to answer.
Thanks,
Danica
I actually had to decide to never ever buy Biscoff Crunchy again since the best way to enjoy it is by the spoonful!! It seemed wasted mixed into oatmeal. >.<
P.s. How do you prepare your corn on the cob? Grilled? Boiled?
Hi Robin,
I totally agree with you on Biscoff….I originally thought it would be great with bananas or apples but I have yet to eat it any other way than on top of Biscoff cookies or off a spoon.
I almost always grill my corn. I peel the husks off, spray it with ICBINB spray or butter, sprinkle with salt and pepper. Wrap it in foil and grill for about 20 minutes.
