05.30.09 Dinner at Arby's & Dessert

I was glad to finally be leaving work at 6pm and went home and picked up Angie and took her to Guitar Center because she needed a new microphone stand. She found a really nice one for around $50; she is attempting to write and record some Christian worship songs for church;)

Then we headed to Borders because I needed to buy my sister a birthday card and I had one of those wonderful 30% off coupons...found a gorgeous popup card that she's gonna love!

For dinner we headed over to Arby's since I had a 2/$5 coupon for their new Roast Chicken Club Sandwiches. We also had Sugar Free Tropicana Lemonade with our meal.

After eating we stopped at Trader Joe's on the way back. 

My list: Garlic Aioli Mustard Sauce, Eggplant Curry Sauce, Frozen Broccoli Florets, Frozen Chopped Spinach, a Larabar, a Kind Bar, Flaxseed Tortilla Chips, Chipotle Salsa, Nonfat Greek Yogurt, Loose Leaf Spinach, Whole Wheat Naan and Whole Grain Pitas. Total was about $30.

Later I had a greek yogurt sweetened with Truvia and a crumbled Kind Bar.

Gonna try to get more sleep tonight!

Back to work all weekend through Monday. Only got in 6 hours of sleep from 10pm-4am. Got dressed, grabbed a Kashi bar and headed to work.

Got there on time and ate my Pumpkin Pie Kashi bar for breakfast.

Had a very busy Friday morning with Citrix, Peoplesoft, Siteminder, Terminal Server and UNIX issues. Also had blade server training but that was actually a lot of fun!

I was overjoyed to get out to lunch for Chinese and it was so good!

For my first plate I had Teriyaki Chicken, Potstickers, Cream Cheese Wonton, Stuffed Mushrooms, Chicken Mushroom Stirfry and a Diet Pepsi.

My second plate was Salmon, Shrimp and Chicken Broccoli Stirfry.

For dessert I splurged and made a giant Oreo Ice Cream Sandwich:D

Went back to work and had Lotus Notes Restore training for about an hour...it was all explained very thoroughly. I caught on real quick and it was a breeze for me.

Took a much needed break at 2:30pm and got out in the gorgeous weather and enjoyed myself for awhile. I was sublimely happy and really didn't want to go back to work after that!!!

Came back in and craved ice cream so I went into the freezer and got out my Edy's No Sugar Added Cookies 'N Cream and went a bit overboard. I think that ice cream sandwich earlier triggered my craving:(

Our organic egg farmer, Kenny brought me a dozen eggs...so I took them and headed home to make dinner. Looked through the fridge and freezer for some inspiration...

I made a perfectly moist, five cheese spinach quiche with sauteed onions!

(Cheddar, Mozzarella, Parmesan, Ricotta and Romano)

My portion with a lovely buttered and toasted crumpet.
