Happy Hump Day! Well, today has been a slow day, since I woke up with my stomach not feeling too well. After two sessions in the bathroom hugging the toilet this morning I feel a little better, but still nauseous, ugh! I felt bad, because Keenan wanted to go for a ride on his trike this morning and I just couldn’t do it, in case I needed to run to the bathroom. Needless to say, I’ve been laying low on the couch with Keenan laying and playing next to me pretending to be sick! I don’t think it is the flu, because my tummy started to feel bad after my husband and I ate dinner last night. We made a nice stir-fry with shrimp, so I’m not sure what caused my stomach to be upset.
Oh, and before I forget, look what arrived yesterday… our first box of produce from Farm Fresh To You! Our friends gave us a gift certificate for one box a while back, and we finally redeemed it. The box contained swiss chard, lettuce, leeks, watercress, two avocados, mushrooms and collard greens. We used some of the produce last night and I look forward to finding fun ways to cook with the rest later this week!
Anyhow, since it is Wednesday, I’m linking up with the lovely Jenn at Peas and Crayons for another round of What I Ate Wednesday. Since I haven’t been able to keep much down today, I’m going to talk about my eats from yesterday, calling it “What I Ate Tuesday!”
Breakfast: Coconut flour pancakes that I just threw together. They looked great, but once again, the pancakes were too dry.
Lunch: Egg whites in a mug over baby spinach with avocado, tomato, pasta sauce, sprouted pumpkin seeds and two pepperoncinis.
Snack: Some of the chocolate KiZE Concepts Bar.
Dinner: Asian stir-fry with shrimp using the swiss chard, leeks and mushrooms from our box of produce. Sorry, I completely forgot to take a picture!
Well, that is it for today. I feel a little better after taking a nap while Keenan slept, but I’m still going to lay low the rest of the afternoon (or at least try to!). Oh, and look for an announcement of our BIG news tomorrow!
Questions:
– What are a few of your eats from today?
– Do you subscribe to a CSA service like Farm to Fresh To You? If so, how do you like it?
Those kize bars look fantastic!
They ARE really good! You should try them!
Oh no! Hope you are feeling better! Do you think it was the shrimp? Maybe just a 24 hour bug? We get Farm Fresh to You and I love it! However, I’m debating on cancelling just because we go to the farmer’s markets so much more during the warmer months. I love getting produce I wouldn’t normally buy though and trying it out. That’s how I discovered and fell in love with Romanesco!
Thanks, I am definitely feeling better. I was able to eat dinner and keep it down, so I’m hoping with a good nights’ rest, I will be back to normal tomorrow. We made roasted carrots tonight with the ones from our box and they were SO good! I love the fresh and unique produce, but like you, we go to our farmer’s market weekly once it opens again next month, so I’m not sure we will keep our service for very long.
Nausea and and big news??? I’m probably completely wrong, but you never knowwww 🙂 haha
Haha, no I’m not pregnant! I knew when I wrote today’s post, someone would think I was expecting!
Oh no! Hope you’re feeling better! I made asian lettuce wraps for dinner . . . they were delicious!
So sorry you were sick! The stir fry sounds so simple and good. You can’t beat the flavor of fresh produce!
Feel better soon!
I have subscribed to Farm Fresh for over a year now and I absolutely love it. The produce is always excellent and I feel like you get what you pay for. I also like the fact that you can select items you do not want to receive. I look forward to getting my box each time as it’s always like a little surprise to see what is in there that week.
Thanks, Tina! Fortunately, it was just a one day deal. It was fun to receive the box and like you said, the produce was excellent. There is nothing like freshly picked produce!
