You’re a Star (Market)

I snacked on a Gala apple around 10:30.

I had a bowl of Trader Joe’s pesto tortellini around noon.

I forgot my gym bag so I decided to make today about relaxation and sweatin’ it out.  I sat in the sauna for 20 minutes and then showered.  With my gym bag at home, I didn’t have any deodorant!

I decided to kill two birds with one stone:  I walked across the street to check out the new Star Market and buy something prevent any underarm odor!  Star Market is awesome!  It’s so much bigger than the old store so it offers so many more products.  I didn’t get to wander up and down every aisle, but I plan to soon.  What’s most interesting is that the entire store is on the 2nd floor.  There’s an escalator for people and a separate escalator for shopping carts!

I had an Amazing Grass Berry Whole Food Energy Bar for a snack.  This was ok.  It had a tangy flavor and I weird sticky texture.  I didn’t care for it at first, but the more I nibbled and drank water, the more I enjoyed it.

I had more of Pacific Foods Tomato Soup for dinner, topped with a sprinkle of cheddar cheese.  I also had a whole grain mini-bagel with homemade veggie cream cheese.  Instead of buying a container of veggie cream cheese, I made my own by mixing vegetable soup mix and a splash of milk into a container of plain cream cheese.

My dinner was tasty but didn’t fill me up.  At 9 pm, my stomach was growling!  I didn’t want to eat a little snack and be hungry at bedtime.  I made a bowl of vanilla yogurt with blueberry flax seed, granola, pomegranate arils (which I also ate a few handfuls of), and a spoonful of PB&Co Cinnamon Raisin Swirl.  Mmmm, SO good.  Sweet, crunchy, creamy, tangy…all at the same time!

I had planned on doing yoga tonight, but there are piles of clothes all over the bed.  I think it will take another hour to finish putting everything away.  Grrr!

    Wow, Star Market has stepped it up! It used to be very rundown, almost to the point where you’d be a little scared to go in. They’re owned by Shaw’s now, so maybe that’s the reason for the new look. It’ll be convenient to have it so close to your work.

    The yogurt mess is a great bedtime snack!

    I’ll have to check out the new Star Market. When I was in college, that was the closest store, but it was very unimpressive.

    You reminded me I have some tomato soup in the fridge that needs to be used up. Thanks!

    Ooh, a trip to the sauna sounds fabulous! I haven’t been to one in over a year… I should really take advantage of the one in my gym!

    I love tomato soup – and what a great idea to make your own veggie cream cheese!
