On Tennis and Stir Frys

0

Hey everybody!

I thought it was Friday all day today…do you ever do that?! Darn!

Tonight, Ben and I got our game on…our tennis game on! Ugh, I. love. tennis. It’s seriously an amazing cardio workout – especially if you’re playing with Ben and I, because well, we aren’t that good. But it least we’re not good together! :) There’s something about smacking that little yellow ball as hard as you can that is just soooo satisfying. We only played for 30 minutes but I can already tell my arm/shoulder is going to be hurtin’ for certain tomorrow. I don’t  care – tennis is the best!!! Do you guys like playing tennis?

For dinner I was craving some chewy rice noodles and happened to have some on hand, so I made a Chicken and Broccoli Rice Noodle Stir-Fry!

This dish was so cool because the only thing that I didn’t already have on hand and happened to have picked up at the store earlier this week anyways, was the broccoli! As I’ve mentioned, I love stir-frys. If you have a good wok you don’t even need oil! I’ve also mentioned that some of my favorite foods to cook – and eat – is Asian food, so this was right up my ally :D Quick, salty, savory, chewy & deeeeelightful!

Ugh, I have been a snacking FIEND for the past two days!! Last night it was miniature teddy grahams and…miniature marshmallows. Miniature marshmallows, people! That’s when you know you’re snacking just to snack! Today it’s been tootsie rolls and goldfish. Do you guys ever get like that? What do you do to stop the snack attack? Usually I chew gum or something, but it’s not working :( Oh well, there are worse things I guess!

oooooo new Office and 30 Rock tonight! Tiny Fey is my hero!!

Fun on Morning Walks

Ohhh gosh… Today started with a hearty, hearty laugh. My mom and I were on our morning walk, having a great time, enjoying the weather when suddenly, behind this giant bush something dashes out aiming for my legs. My instincts kicked in and I let out a little “ah!” and…
