Sunday: Took Body Pump, cleaned the house, weeded the yard (it REALLY needed it), did a little shopping with Josh to get him shorts for our vacation (we're going to Hilton Head for a week soon!), made din din. For dinner, we had fruit (South Carolina peaches and banana):
and this lighter cauliflower and spinach pasta recipe:
Monday: Back to work (bleh!), ran errands, quick 2 mile run with Jenny, out to Los Arcos with Josh, Jenny, and our friend Jeremy. I had a shrimp salad (I know- you're totally shocked!) and some chips and salsa. Tuesday: Work (they make me go every day...ridiculous ;)), house work, taught Body Attack, little shopping at Marshall's Home Goods (this store rocks), made din din. We had Caitlin's Savory Oats. I made a few changes- I used steamed broccoli, pinto beans, and added some hot sauce. They were fantastic! So yummy Caitlin.
We also had a side of watermelon. We picked this baby up at the farmers market and boy was it HUGE! It was so fresh, maybe the best watermelon I've ever had!
I went to Body Pump this morning and have started into my work day. Not sure whats up for this afternoon.

aww glad you liked it!
Mmm save me some of that cauliflower and spinach pasta! Two of my fave veggies.
Mmmm mmm fresh fruit! I was just thinking today about how I LOVE summer because the fruit is so freakin' good. And cheap.
My favorite fruit - that is tough...I can't think of a fruit I DON'T like! But if I could only have one forever and ever, it would be strawberries. Okay maybe a tie between s-berries and cantelope. :-)
Enjoy your Wednesday!
So ya had to bring up weeding the yard. I'll be doing this on the weekend. So NOT looking forward to it. Blah!
I really need to try savory oats! They sound fantastic!!
I know what you mean about being busy rather than bored - busy, please :D
I'm a big fan of blueberries despite their absence on the blog! Hope your week picks up at work!
I need to try your pasta dish! Looks so good.
Fav summer fruit is cantaloupe, hands down!
Watermelon is my FAVORITE! I eat it almost every day in the summer, sometimes it is my meal. I just can't get enough!
So I know I've asked you this before, but did you ever find a good protein powder? I met with a dietitian yesterday and I need to gain weight and add protein. Any suggestions?
Savory oats? Yum!
My favorite fruit is probably watermelon or raspberries.
water melon is my fav fruit!

Canteloupe - the smell of it always reminds me of my grandmas house!

That watermelon looks perfect! cantaloupe and watermelon are definitely up there for summer fruit for me.
My favorite summer fruit is ALL OF THEM! :) Looks like you have been eating well. Hope work picks up for you (if you want it to)
yummy! that watermelon looks so good! have you ever tried brushing it with honey and lime and grilling it for a bit? SO GOOD!
ice cold watermelon is the BEST! I also make a honeydew sorbet .. yum!
cherries, definitely! I LOVE cherries. And the savory oats and pasta looks yummy! I love oats with cheese of course, but I would add a runny egg on top :-)
I have heard the best things about Hilton Head. I know someone that lives there and would love to visit them. I hear its beautiful. Hope you have an amazing time.
Favorite summer fruit you say? Wow, I don't think I could ever decide. Maybe watermelon, mango or any kind of berry.
oh your savory oats look amazing :)
I love how fresh fruit is right now - your watermelon looks delicious!
savory oats are sooo tasty~ I like mine with tuna and spinach and cheese- it tastes like a tuna noodle casserole.
oh i am totally making that tomorrow for you! :)
fav. summer fruit... i think pineapple or strawberries... oh or mangos... such a hard decision!
First time on your blog and love it!! The pasta dish sounds amazing!!
I think Water melon is the clear winner when it comes to summer fruits!!
Gorgeous looking pasta!
Fave summer fruit is blueberries!
I have always loved strawberries and blueberries, but my recent love is canteloupe! I love to eat half of it at a time with a spoon, and fill it with cottage cheese if I want a more filling snack!
Watermelon is my favorite fresh, summer fruit. I can't wait to see it appear on the farm stands on my way home from work!
Yay for oats of any style! Cheesy oats sound amazing...remind me of grits! Ooooh how I miss southern food!
Watermelon is my summa obsession!!!!
that IS crazy they expect you at work everyday- some people! :P
I love savory oats... My favorite fruit is fresh coconut and fresh pineapple :D
Ooooh, strawberries for sure. When they're good, they're grrrrrrrreat!
Food looks fantastic! Love the pasta!
I hate how they make us work daily! NOT cool!!
Have a great one!

my fav summer fruit??? hmmm, raspberries!
Oh my god -- that watermelon is gorgeous!!
The pasta looks so yummy! I'll have to add it to the menu for next week. I've been craving pasta lately and that's a great light option. Good reminder to buy watermelon, too- yum!
Your pasta looks terrific...and the fruits so refreshing. Yummie!
Savory oats - you know I love it...especially with broccoli! :)
Peaches and blueberries - I look forward to them every summer.
Hope things pick up at work soon Erica as I understand the need to stay busy. Otherwise, the day just drags!
Mmm... watermelon!! That may be my favorite summer fruit, although it would be a tough contest with cherries!!!
MMM! That cauliflower and spinach pasta recipe looks sooooo good!
I say all of em.
love the fruit.
love the summer.
LOVE THE FACT that I can use the "its too hot to cook" and grill for 3 months straight :)
seriously thanks for the recipe with cauliflower, I have had so much trouble finding any!
I've been curious to try savory oats! I'm addicted to the sweet kind for breakfast, but think I might enjoy mixing it up at night with some oats and savories! We'll see....
I need to buy a watermelon. It's so refreshing. Thanks for the inspiration!
Looks sooooo good! Must try :)
