Oh my gosh, if one more thing went wrong with my computer at work today I was ready to crack open a bottle of wine we keep in our work wine cooler leftover from Christmas! Keeping my fingers crossed tomorrow goes smoother!
Since I didn’t do Jillian at lunch I had to do it when I got home from work. I also wasn’t prepared for dinner. As I was sitting at my desk waiting for my computer to reboot for the tenth time, I realized I hadn’t made the corn chowder for our soup and sammie dinner, nor did I marinate the chicken for our teriyaki chicken kabob dinner! When all else fails – go out! It worked out perfectly – I had plenty of time to work out, we went out to dinner, picked up a few things at Walmart on the way home and back by 8:15 – nice!
I am in the process of seeing who got voted off American Idol tonight – I usually fast forward the car commercials! And I can’t believe they picked Jamie Foxx for the “rat pack” theme – still don’t get that one!
My lunch was delicious – I ended up making a “leftover” spaghetti lasagna which consisted of:
- leftover spaghetti
- cooked spaghetti squash
- 2 cups chopped fresh baby spinach
- 6 ounces cooked quinoa
- 5 ounces cottage cheese
- crushed red pepper
- Italian seasoning
- homemade mariara sauce
So we ended up going to TGIF – even though you can never find their nutritional info online!
I ended up eating one of the chicken breasts, all the mashed potatoes, and just a few of the vegetables – the vegetables were awful – they tasted like they were frozen.
I saw a preview for a new show on Lifetime. It’s called Cooking Yourself Thin. It premieres this weekend so check out your local listings – supposedly they will have all the calories for the meals they make and also how they made the dishes calorie friendly. Nice!
Okay I am off to make the corn chowder for tomorrow! See you tomorrow. 😀
Love the spaghetti lasagna idea. I thought Jamie Fox ended up being an excellent mentor on AI, didn’t you?
I liked him, but I just didn’t get the rat pack connection – who’s your vote for??
i hope today is better with all the computer stuff!
I saw a commercial for that show (while I was watching a really trashy 90s Lifetime movie)! I can’t wait for it to come on – I love cooking shows like that!
Hope today is MUCH better!!
What great meals!
I haven’t been to TGI Fridays in such a long time but that grilled chicken looks great!
your lunch looks delicious… quinoa in pasta? cool!!! I tried quinoa for the first time yesterday! 🙂
Your spaghetti lasagna looks yummy
JD in the sauce, oh yeah!
That sounds like a really interesting show!
Yum, corn chowder sounds awesome!
I heart TGIF…..JD Sauce is MY crack ha
