Shopping Needed

A pretty great day overall, though food today, while relatively healthy was definately on the boring side. On the bright side, there were highlights of fresh fruit, though - mango! pluot! apples!

Lunch was simply greens with clover sprouts and some grilled chicken. On the side, the roasted acorn squash with a touch of honey was delightful. My favorite spin instructor was back after being out for a month (!), so a hard workout (despite incredibly sore legs from weights yesterday) left me hungry in the afternoon which led me to more yogurt...with honey! Twice in one day, a girl has got to have her pleasures.

In an after-work indulgence, I did sample a few sweet potato fries with my amber, mildly hoppy micro-brew. Dinner (on the late side, due to 1.5 hours at the voting poles) was chicken andoille sausages accompanied by a large portion of sauteed spinach and sundried tomatoes, seasoned with sea salt and cayenne pepper.

The chicken sausage (a trader joes-keep-it-in-freezer-emergency food) had only recognizable ingredients, and only 5 ingredients at that (chicken, evaporated cane sugar...and a couple other things). Pretty impressive for a sausage!
