Today has been so productive ~ I LOVE days like that! Ok, yes, I did have a late start, but, I have been going nonstop – organizing our guest bedroom (my dumping ground), cleaning, finishing up all our laundry, helping The Husband outside with some of the concrete stuff, planning meals and I am about to head off to the grocery store, book store and post office. Fun, right? It IS for me though because I will feel like I earned my blog makeover time tonight when we sit down to relax.
For lunch, I made us some great sandwiches. I had originally bought all the stuff to take on a picnic for our gold panning trip, but, we had to postpone it in order to fit in the concrete stuff this week.
1 sweet french roll
1 oz lean ham
1 oz lean turkey
1 oz lite TJ’s cheddar cheese
sliced tomatoes
red onions
cucumber chips
spicy mustard
This made up such a BIG 7 WWP sandwich! I only managed to finish about 2/3 of it and I saved my apricot for later.
We still had our picnic eating it a bit outside in the midst of our concrete jumbles 🙂 It was still nice!
This afternoon we were kids again and stopped working when we heard the music of the “man-man” as my super cute niece calls him. The Husband bought me a root beer float ice cream bar and 2 ice creams for him. I didn’t remember to take a picture until I was looking at the stick ~ whoops! I DID balance it out by having a 1 oz lowfat Cabot cheesestick for some dairy/protein since I was still hungry.
Alright, I am off to shop, shop, shop! I’ll be back later with a new recipe I am making for dinner tonight – I can’t wait to try it out.
yay to productive days! 🙂
Wooo you did have a productive day. I love those! That sandwich looks delicious, too
I wanted to see gold panning pics! 🙂 Glad you guys got so much done!
Olga ~ Thanks, it really does make my weekend feel complete when I accomplish so much.
Anne ~ It was an awesome sandwich – the cucumber chips totally make it.
Angelea ~ I KNOW! I was all set for it and really looking forward to it. But, our concrete guy said he wanted to start digging out on Tuesday to pour it on Fri/Sat. So, we have to get all our prep work (saves $$) done before then. It’s a fair trade because it’s something we’ve been wanting to do for so long now, but, ya…..we WILL still gold pan someday soon I am sure 🙂 The Husband felt bad.

Glad to hear that you had such a successful day! I just love it when I feel like I’m getting things done on the weekend!
That sandwich looks amazing. Your tomato slices look expertly placed. 😉
Health ~ Isn’t it funny how we focus on making our plates look pretty when we know we have to take a picture.
