I had to use my imagination a few times today. It started when I packed my lunch for work and chose from the random items hanging around in my fridge.
I spread honey mustard on a tortilla, added cheddar cheese and a sliced green apple, and threw it in the toaster oven for a few minutes. Mmm, the honey mustard was a perfect compliment to the green apple.
I got creative a few hours later when I couldn’t peel my Clementine. I stabbed it with a pen cap and was then able to pick off the peel.
I was still hungry so I rummaged around in my file cabinet and found the Special K bars I bought last week. How quickly I forget about the snacks stashed around my office! I also had a few more pieces of mint chocolate that went unphotographed.
We had a Fit Group meeting at work and I had a lot of things to do so I didn’t take a lunch break. But I did take a day off from exercising. Gotta let my tired body recover!
Jared and I ran an errand after work so I didn’t start making dinner until 7:15. I snacked on Triscuits while boiling pasta. I tossed the campanelle pasta in flavored olive oil and added halved grape tomatoes and Parmesan cheese. Simple and tasty. It hit the spot!
I was still feeling a little bit snacky so I had a small bowl of vanilla ice cream with peanut butter. This is why I can’t keep frozen delights in the house. I become obsessed! 
I’m waking up at the ungodly hour of 5:15 am so I can meet Patricia at Body Pump at 6 am. No more blog reading for tonight. I need to get some Zzzz’s.

You are so creative, I wouldn’t have thought about putting apples in a wrap but apples and cheese are a great combo. I might have to try it out. Hope you got enough sleep – Body Pump at 6am is hardcore!

Great combination! Apples are great in wraps, but I rarely think of it.

Apple and honey mustard does seem like a good combo! Not as good as ice cream and PB though

What a great idea for a wrap – love all the components!
Good luck getting up so early – I have trouble with anything before 6:00 am – and I couldn’t even get up at 6:00 am today!

Hey girl!! That wrap looks absolutely awesome! What a great bunch of flavor combos you got there. Good luck with your class tomorrow morning. I think the hardest part is just getting to the gym. (Im a morning exerciser too) Once Im there though Im totally fine. I hope you have a blast! Btw..too funny that you decided to stab the orange with the pen cap. ahha. Cracked me up. You gotta do what you gotta do sometimes. Eating at a desk can be hard! I have to do it alot..its tricky! Have a wonderful day!!
