veggie shreds

Lettuce cups

I feel like this post should come with a warning. If you’re the jealous type…then look away, because this post may just make you wish you were engaged to my fiancé 🙂 I’ll post more on the rest of my weekend meals later, but Sunday night deserves it’s own (detailed) explanation.  Kyle told me that he’d have a surprise waiting for me when I got home, and sure enough, I was totally blown away!

They DO have all these new creative dining places though, with lots of potential options beyond fast food (which is nice), including salad and hot food bars. But still, at 7 am that is little consolation for the lack of soy for my coffee.So I ended up going to Dunkin’ Donuts 🙁 and ordering a small black coffee and a HUGE water. I’ve got a aisle seat, kids, no worries!Here’s my… Read more >
