Ahh, I can’t wait for the day when 5:00 on Friday actually means something to me other than about to go into a 5 hour practical. I’m getting to school early tonight to catch up on anything I missed out on last night and prepare myself for tonight. I’m making a charlotte royal—aka “brain cake”. Layers of jelly roll cake and vanilla bavarian creme; rather old fashioned to say the least. Hopefully I’ll be out before midnight!
That Amy’s split pea soup was really good today and my lunch definitely filled me up. I snacked on the cherries later in the day and was happily surprised when one of my managers that ran out to get everyone else burgers brought me a huge fresh fruit bowl instead! I snacked on some grapes and am saving the rest for breakfast tomorrow. It was a very sweet gesture :).
For dinner I had leftovers from last night. I seriously think Indian food is the BEST when left in the fridge overnight. This meal was great last night but about 50 times better tonight. Thanks Miss Lindsay! Tonight I had it over whole wheat couscous and it was a very filling meal.
I’m bringing with me tonight a new snack I have had in my pantry for a month now but haven’t eaten yet: these dark chocolate covered almonds. All the food I’ve eaten today has been pretty low fat and I haven’t had my daily dose of nuts in yet :). I’ll tell you all how these are–they look addicting!
For all of yall going to the movie tonight: SHHHHHHH!!!!!! I keep listening to the song from the preview over and over (that India Arie song—the heart of the matter) just to pump myself up.

And that’s so cool of your manager to bring you fruits! I’d take that over burgers any day!
I can’t believe those almonds lasted a MONTH in your pantry! They would have been gone within the hour if I had them!
