2/23 and 2/24 Situps and my own berry almost chicken salad

I forgot to post yesterday...distractibility is my Achilles heel.  But since I rested on my strength day, I decided to do some sit-ups on my resting day.  I did 50 of those.  Bridget said it could count as strength.

And then today...which was supposed to be my day of rest, I had actually planned some pool time at the YMCA, but got caught up in proofreading and interviews and planning a homeschool party with a friend that I ended up not doing that either, so I decided not to worry about that and set my sights on something else.

I am having a very hard time letting go of the Cheerwine.  That is one thing that I dearly love and I crave it all winter long.  Not so much the summer.  That's when I drink gallons of water with lime, but during the winter, I do want that Cheerwine.  I think what I'll try is drinking a glass of water when I want a Cheerwine and if I still want one after that, I'll drink one then.  So at least it will be getting diluted.

Another food (if you can count Cheerwine as a food) is Wendy's berry almond chicken salad.  I wait all year long for summer to roll around so I can get them again.  I could eat one of those every single day.  So today, I decided that instead of  eating lasagna with my son, I'd fix myself up one of those berry almond chicken salads.  Mine is a little different, but honestly, it hit the spot for what I was wanting.  It was SO good....like a little bit of summer on a plate (or in a plastic carry-out box).  Here's what I had in it:

  • Lettuce
  • Spinach
  • pineapple
  • Strawberries
  • Strawberry yogurt (bonus!)
  • sunflower seeds
  • almonds
  • smoked turkey cubes
  • Ken's Lite Raspberry Vinaigrette
