Started the day with a cinnamon raisin bagel, then stopped over to see the progress of mom's custom shirt. Turned out beautifully! Then it was on to the mall to get some gifts (godiva or see's) to ship to people in Okinawa. Ended up getting a few boxes of See's Candy, with a few treats for me and mom. Scotchmallows are my favorite (marshmallow and chewy caramel covered in dark chocolate)- and dark butterchews fill sweet cravings as well. I have yet to find a chocolate maker who uses nice solid chewy caramels like Sees- much more my preference than the more usual runny caramels that fill most chocolate centers. I get so much satisfaction out of that solid chewy bite!
Had a Boudin combo of pesto roast beef sandwich and tortilla soup, while mom had the traditional clam chowder in a bread bowl. Was pretty tasty and filling- the soup was filled with shredded chicken, and I had a good mix of bread, veggies, and meat to make sure my workout would be adequately fueled for the day.
Later raced off to the gym to make the yoga/power stretch class, only to find that all the classes were canceled due to the holiday. Had a nice full circuit workout with light weights and finally fit in a few lunges as well. Felt good!
Was ready to eat again as soon as I got home. A good "leftover" meal of beef stroganoff made with the veggies from yesterday and remaining tri tip. Added in a few tangerines for freshness and veg for the day. Had my saved scotchmallow for dessert, and it was time for bed so I can be up early to go attack em!
