I Heart Wraps & Farmer’s Markets & Shaved Ice & friends who send fun mail…..

June 19, 2009 by DanicasDaily 10 Comments

Today is just a fantastic day and it’s only Thursday! I LOVE days like that. Body Pump was so intense today because our instructor challenged us to add more weight. We added weight in the middle of sets – who does that?! LOL….One time when she asked I just stood there and she threw the guilt factor out of “if you want to get the most out of your bicep rows, you NEED to add more weight”. I could see in the mirrors I was the ONLY one not doing that….maybe she was talking to me? hehe! Well – it was awesome and I left all shakey & pumped!

I was excited all day long to make up my planned wrap for lunch using the leftover Southwestern Turkey.

Mission Life Balance Whole Wheat Tortilla
1 slice Sargento Lowfat Colby Cheese (these are only 1 Weight Watcher Point!)
Annie’s Organic Sweet & Spicy BBQ Sauce
Jennie-O’s Southwestern Turkey Breast
TJ’s Fire Roasted Corn
AVOCADO
Red Bell Pepper

So amazing!!! I LOVE the sweet & spicy BBQ sauce that was cooled by the Avocado and smoked by the corn!

Photobucket

And cheesey goodness that I could TASTE! I only use cheese when I can taste it – why waste the calories/points if you can’t tell it’s even there.

I had the leftover salad with Newman’s Lightened Up Lime Vinaigrette and 3 Miki’s Organic Tortilla chips crushed for the crunch factor.

It was a fantastic lunch and it kept me full all afternoon. This afternoon I had a planned snack of an apple plus almond butter, however, I decided to trade it for a 100 Calorie (2 Weight Watcher Point) stick of Trader Joe’s Dark Chocolate.

Oh and then there was the Farmer’s Market! I scored some fantastic stuff today – everything is so in season – I LOVE it!

If you buy one fruit ORGANIC, BUY STRAWBERRIES! I promise this is the one fruit you can tell the most that it’s organic – the flavor is outstanding! They taste sweeter and juicer than the pesticide filled versions. Try it and I think you will agree.

A mixed variety of white/yellow peaches, nectarines and PLUOTS!

Photobucket

2 types of cherries ~ I am sad that the guy said this is the last week πŸ™

Check out how BIG these Rainier cherries are…..sitting on top of a pluot!

Photobucket

And since summer is officially here and it was blazing hot outside at 96 degrees, I got a small shaved ice. I am a total sucker for shaved ice – I LOVE it as much as I love froyo and ice cream. HOWEVER, I do think that the guy selling it is ripping people off! Can you believe that this mini cup was $2.25? I almost told him never mind when he said that. We can get HUGE cups of shaved ice around here for under $2 – It was good though with no nutritional value at all πŸ˜€

Photobucket

The Husband got one of his gigantic Beef Sticks…..

Photobucket

When I got home, I had the coolest box ever waiting for me! Janetha sent me the coolest Thank You for her TJ’s Birthday gift package…….PB& Co TRIO!

Photobucket

Not one, not two, but THREE flavors! White Chocolate Wonderful

Photobucket

Photobucket

Cinnamon Raisin Swirl

Photobucket

Photobucket

Dark Chocolate Dreams

Photobucket

Photobucket

And the CUTEST card ever – I do not know which pooch I LOVE the most – they are all adorable!

Photobucket

I had thoughts of opening them ALL to sample but I had to show SOME self restraint. I am so pumped about ALL of these flavors since I was having serious PB evny from you all – they do not carry these in Cali out by me πŸ™ Now I get to play along – yeah! Thanks so much Janetha ~ You are the sweetest person ever and you seriously rock!!!

Ok….now I suppose I need to go figure out dinner! It’s hard when it’s SO hot outside. I am STILL thinking about the turkey and wraps and bbq ~ maybe a quesadilla is in order or just a BIG fruit salad.

QUESTION OF THE DAY: Which PB& Co flavor should I try first and what is your favorite way to have it?

You have just a few short hours to win some HOLEY DONUTS! Don’t miss out on these fantastic healthy donuts. I guarantee from personal experience that they are as AMAZING as they look in the pictures if not better! Click HERE as the contest closes at midnight tonight!

    Hi Danica!
    It honestly feels so weird to write that because I've only ever met one other Danica in my life! Anyway, I just saw your blog and being name twins (hah) I HAD to check it out!
    Those fruits look fabulous and so does that package! I just bought a jar of WCW pb and didn't like it all that much (crazy I know, after hearing everyone rave about it) but try it and let me know how you like it!

    Sounds like body pump was great! I love your wrap–the avocado looks fantastic. That's such a great idea to add a few corn chips to your salad–I'll have to remember that πŸ™‚

    Great farmer's market finds! Oooh I love those PBs! I love the dark chocolate dreams. It's perfect on a vitatop, banana, or in greek yogurt/oatmeal. Basically, you can't go wrong. Haha!

    I am loving the different flavors from PB & Co. So far I have tried Cinnamon and Raisin and Dark Chocolate Dreams. I like to enjoy it on a piece of WW toast with a banana sliced on top.
