We attempted to go Christmas shopping today – but found zero. I was tired and frustrated (and starving), so Meeker suggested a large salad to boost my spirits.

Enter Sweet Tomatoes.
After this, we came home, I took a 2 hour nap, and was as good as new. A couple of hours later, I was in the mood for baking. Meeker was thrilled.

Eating cookie dough while watching football. Happy camper.

Meeker’s Favorite Chocolate Chip Cookies
After baking, I made hamburgers for dinner. I’m still on a red-meat-kick.

On whole wheat toast with ketchup, pickles, guacamole, and spicy mustard – delish.
And I’m convinced that there is nothing better than a Sunday night in front of a week off of work. Happy almost Thanksgiving week!


There isn’t a Sweet Tomato in my town or near me, but whenever I travel and see one, I pull in! Love all their choices!
Enjoy a relaxing evening!
Cookie dough and football…count me in!
football!! love it!!! cookie dough!! love it EVEN MORE
I find that shopping can make me sooo tired and sooo hungry, why is that?
Hopefully you will have more success that next time around.
There’s nothing worse than going Christmas shopping and not finding anything! And I’m convinced that a nap is the only thing that can cure the bad mood that is sure to follow.
Those cookies look AMAZING, by the way.
This is what you need to do: go Christmas shopping on Black Friday – the hustle and bustle will keep you energized and in a shopping mood! That’s what I do!
Although, Sweet Tomatoes can cure any post shopping blues for sure.
There is NOTHING better than a Sunday night in front of a week off of work.
Haha I love that Meeker licks the beater!! I always give mine to my mom…after years of her not letting me have one, I’m nice and still give her one when I back
Holy typo. *I’m nice and still give her one when I bake!!
haha i love that he is licking the mixer paddle! i love doing that!
I agree, there is NOTHING better
Enjoy the week off!
I have yet to try Sweet Tomatoes. I wish we had one here. Next time we travel somewhere that has one I am definitely trying it!
I agree! Even a Sunday night before only having to work two days is nice. Enjoy your week off!
There’s nothing more frustrating than devoting time to shopping and leaving empty handed. But the salad and cookies look amazing!
Amazing salad!!! I’m 100% jealous you have a Sweet Tomatoes near you!
Enjoy your Thanksgiving break

I adore Sweet Tomato! One of my favorite places to go ever!!!! At least when I’m super famished and need a TON of food
i cannot even imagine the all the changes you must go through when pregnant – both food-wise and otherwise. i totally understand the not being into food – sometimes i get that way too, even though i am clearly not pregnant.
for my own selfish inquiry, will you be posting weekly tummy pics or anything? seeing the progress of this undoubtedly cute lil’ punkin would be fun
love you lady!!!
Funny you should ask! I just forced Meeker to take some “belly pics” of me for the old blog – I’ll put them up tomorrow! Stay tuned.
Ohh Christmas shopping…I should really get started, too. I have no idea what to get anybody though!
Fun post. I especially liked the picture of Meeker shamelessly licking the cookie dough spatula : ) Looks like something I would be caught doing.
I hope your next Christmas shopping trip is more successful.
Happy Thanksgiving week!
