I'm going to recap the last couple of days quickly for you because I know you all were DYING to know what's gone down (literally down me- hahaha).
Food:
Fruit and coffee = breakfast guaranteed to make you hungry around 10 am.
Fresh tomatoes from James' garden made this cheese sandwich extra delicious. I've always loved cheese sandwiches since I was a little girl and this sandwich was a good compromise between comfort food and eating healthy. There was a smidge of butter used on the Oroweat Triple Heath bread and some gouda cheese from the Nugget Deli- it was gouda. Hahaha. I am a dork.
I was going to go walking with Ro but she was feeling under the weather so I walked the long way to Nugget and got burrito fixings since I was craving some "Mexican" food. This is a whole wheat tortilla with refried black beans, Canadian Black Diamond Extra Sharp Cheddar, half an avocado and some green taco sauce.
I liked it so much I had it the next day for lunch too! This time I added some tomatoes from James' garden and ate some cherries on the side.
I bought this awesome Blender bottle and tried the chocolate Tera'swhey again. This time I used chocolate almond milk to give it a little extra chocolately taste and it was much better than last time. I still think the vanilla flavor is better but this isn't inedible.
I was a hunger monster yesterday in SF. I started out the day with cereal and coffee then had the taco/ burrito above. When I got to SF I made this plate with the last of the prosciutto and a little cheese. I had a few more pieces of cheese and salami and then James and I went to Twin Peaks. We did a teeny, tiny hike up to the top, I wouldn't even call it a hike it was so puny, and then went foraging for food at Whole Foods. I bought this bread:
and ate some of it in the car before coming home and making this wedge while I was cooking dinner. There's a story with this bread but I'm not going to tell it until tomorrow...
Finally I made some salmon and garlicky spinach for dinner. I just had sparkling water in my wine glass but my wine glasses are so pretty!!! I want to have people over just so they can drink out of my new wine glasses.
I topped off the night with more of Dr. Bob's handmade ice cream- chocolate chip with Scharffen Berger chocolate. I love these little stainless steel bowls Chuck bought James and I- they are the perfect size to hold 1/2 cup of ice cream.
This was some of that leftover bread with Andronico's homemade peanut butter (Store made? It's not really homemade is it?) and a latte with the San Francisco house espresso machine.
For the last 12 years James has had 4th of July in Community Park in Davis with his friends. They bring a grill and play sports all day and just generally catch up with each other. I threw some veggies on the grill for lunch and chowed down on iceberg salad, tomato and mozzarella salad, grilled zucchini and a grilled portabello mushroom. I also kind of munched on cherries and BBQ Baked Kettle Chips during the day.
For dinner I grilled some broccoli, some more zucchini (I could seriously eat it every meal), fresh white corn and top sirloin with Kinder's marinade- basically the same meat I had at Chuck's on Thursday. I also had 3 of these:
Bacon wrapped asparagus spears. It doesn't look like much here but it was good. Then we met up with James' momma and poppa and had a homemade chocolate chip cookie- yum!
Exercise:
I need to get on the ball! I was supposed to exercise with Ro on Friday but she was sick. I was going to just cop out but then I was stern with myself and made me walk anyway. I walked 2.9 miles in 46 minutes and ended up at Nugget where I picked up the fixings for my burrito/ tacos.
Saturday I wanted to go for a walk in SF but by the time James and I had moved all our stuff it was late and I was pooped! I figure I did get some exercise by moving things though and we drove to Twin Peaks and then climbed the tiny climb to the summit.
This was the view:
I thought this was a cool picture of the Mt. Sutro antenna.
It was starting to get foggy.
Market Street is very distinctive. I just need to bring a map up here and I could map out the whole city.
James was silly. He just wore a t-shirt and shorts even though it was very cold and windy- I have a feeling it's always cold and windy up there since the weather was actually really nice near our apartment.
No exercise today- I was too busy sitting in the park watching James exercise but I'll be back in SF tomorrow and I'm going to drag my butt up the hill once more.
Stay tuned guys and check out my post tomorrow- It's almost my blogaversary!
