From one extreme…

First, I have to highlight Meeker’s post-run breakfast. Apparently this is what helps him recover:

Pile ‘o bacon, spicy hash browns and eggs. Whatever works, I guess. It made me feel sleepy and heavy just watching him eat.

No problem for this guy.

I was not hungry after my chai high smoothie, so I jumped in the shower and decided to get my Saturday errands done. UPS, post office, bank, etc.

But when I got home I was hungry and tired.

So it was leftover chicken and Spanish rice.

The rice was perfect still, but the chicken was a little bland – so I broke out some hot sauce that my big bro got me in Costa Rica.

Then dipped my meal – chicken nugget style…

Much better. This “salsa” is more of a sauce to me, and has a sweet, vinegary type of taste. It adds a nice little kick of flavor and spice.

But – still hungry. So, more food.

The rest of my pear from this morning and one of Cait’s frozen pumpkin cookie gems.

Okay, full now. But sooo tired.

So I took a nap. And now I feel like a zombie and a half. Blaaah. Hopefully I will be back to my euphoric post-running self in a few minutes. This is why I hate naps. But, I think it was really needed, so no harm done – (as soon as I snap out of it.) Until that happens, I will be blog reading and chugging ice cold water.

  1. woowoo on that run girl…work it out! ummm…naps are the end of me, especially if i take one during the day. suddenly, when i wake up, i have no idea what day it is, what time it is and what is going on in the world. hopefully a good 1/2 hour, you’ll be back to norm.

    love leftovers…and that chai high smoothie sounds delish!

    the hubs is adorable!

    have a fab night~

  2. Izano! I thought of Costa Rica today. ahh..
    Naps are life here in the preK world! Love ‘em, but completely understand that zoned-out feel. YOU ARE AMAZING, and I wanna be like YOU. ;) Matt does, too! He ran 7 miles w/Baby E!

  3. Yay for frozen pumpkin cookies! I baked mine while at home with my whole family so not even one crumb of the batch was leftover to freeze. Haha.

    And Meeker is completely like my boyfriend Mike. The things he eats post-exercise are somewhat awe-inspiring to me because I don’t think I’d ever even be able to keep it down if I wanted to!
