Spontaneous
This afternoon, as a mid morning snack, I had a half of an Honest Food Apple Ginger Spice Country Square… The description is:
Country Apples and spicy Ginger are baked with Raisins, Walnuts, Almond Halves, and the great taste of Almond Butter for this fresh from the oven tasty square
As far as nutritionals are concerned, my half serving came out to: 120 calories, 4.5 g fat, 2g fiber, 3 g of protein… not too shabby! As far as taste goes, well this gets an A in my book… I really felt like I was eating Apple Crisp… It was perfectly chewy, sweet, and hearty.. I love food where you can taste the whole grains (probably why I like oats) so this definitely falls into that category… I really wanted to eat the whole bar, but I made myself stop since it was only meant to be a tiny snack 
Dinner tonight was pretty spontaneous… since it was my mom’s birthday, we didn’t want her to have to cook, plus I couldn’t cook since I was at work longer than anticipated, so my parents picked up Olive Garden to-go for dinner… We had what we ALWAYS get when we order from there… ww cappelini pomodoro & of course a salad… Our dinner discussion involved how our salad was lacking in nutrients due to the use of iceberg lettuce… you can tell that nutrition has been on our minds!
After dinner, I bolted off to 6:45 spinning and got a good class in… I also got a quick ab session in using the machines…
Now I’m going to go relax & have the other half of my Country Square bar!
the country square bar sounds excellent! Where did you get it?
PASTA!!! **swoons**
Happy Birthday to your mom!!
I haven’t been to Olive Garden in for-eva. Yums.
My mouth watered when I read the description for the country square. It sounds so yummy!
That bar sounds really tasty. And that pasta looks sooo good, it makes me want to go out right now for a pasta dinner
I need to try the Honest products, I saw them at the local health food store here in Richmond, but didn’t know if they were good.. obviously they are!
Mmmm… that reminds me that I haven’t had pasta this week, what’s wrong with me?!
Ah I never have the will power to eat HALF of a bar. I always say that I’ll eat half of my clif bar but before I know it I have an empty wrapper
That plate of pasta looks perfect btw!
Wow~the country square sounds really amazing! Must try and recreate this sometime!
i’m really amazed you could restrain yourself to only eating half of a bar! I always end up caving :p
The squares look delicious! Are you getting so excited for your wedding or what? I know this is a stressful/crazy busy time, but make sure you enjoy every minute!

Romina ~ Hehe, I haven’t had it in a while, either… I always forget about it as a good dinner option!
Richelle + oatmeal ~ I know, I’ve gotten used to eating only half a bar b/c I think ok you can prolong the enjoyment for another day when you eat the other half
Erica ~ I am getting so excited, I can’t believe it’s going to be here before I know it!!!
