Nothing reiterates to me that I am not a morning person more than getting up early on the week-end.
Yesterday I had to pick up Diva from her friend’s house at 9:30 am. I set my alarm for 8. I don’t think that I stayed up too late on Friday night, maybe midnight. But when that alarm went off my body cried. I dragged to get out of my bed. 😦 I was all right while we were out and about but as soon as I got home and stopped moving the tiredness returned. 😦
We met up with my girlfriend and her husband at Cora’s. The place was busy as it usually is on the week-end. Once seated we went over the menu. I struggled with what to order. I did not see taking home half the 10 star omelette as a viable option. As I was getting annoyed with all the different high calorie options I saw it … in tiny print. A little section called “Good Morning”. 3 options; 2 eggs and bacon or sausage, 2 eggs and something I can’t remember, and 2 eggs with fresh fruit. I swear the angels sang to me at this point.
Having read that Cora’s uses heavy cream in their omelets and who knows what else I opted for boiled eggs and bacon. It came with potatoes that looked barely cooked. Made them that much easier to not eat. 😉
Even with having to peel my eggs, I finished before everyone. My girl was surprised that I didn’t want anything else as she inhaled her 10 star omelette, extra side of sausages, potatoes and toast.
Diva ordered 3 eggs scrambled with 3 pieces of bacon and 3 sausages. It too came with potatoes. As she was 75% finished she picked up a potato with a hair on it. I tried my best not to look too put off, but inside I was ill. Anyhoo, the waitress offered to bring her another full plate of breakfast which she accepted and ate most of!
Princess had a plate size waffle with fruit on it and what she thought would be English cream but was custard. I didn’t even know that this child knew what English cream was. I learn something new every day.
After breakfast, we all went into a couple of the stores in the plaza. I am still on the look out for a bigger purse. It will be to my own detriment but I would like to be able to put more than just my wallet in my bag. Most mornings I go to work with at least a purse, my lunch bag, a book and the returned mail I’ve picked up for the company. It is a logistics nightmare. If I could find a bag big enough to hold a book that would be nice. Alas it was not meant to be yesterday.
We said our good-byes to my friends and went to Superstore where I was on the hunt for Mediterranean Pistachio Passion Taste of Nature bars. The Superstore had other flavours but not this one.
We went home to relax until it was time for volleyball at 4:15 pm. Right before we left the house I ate again. I was the only one.
After volleyball, we went to Wal-mart to pick up a few ingredients for dinner. Garbage bread rolls were on the menu.
What is a garbage bread roll? Roll out pizza dough, put ingredients on it then roll it up like a jelly roll and bake it. Super delicious.
Well Ms Diva was not feeling for a garbage bread roll so she opted to have the rest of a rather large serving of Skinny Chicken Broccoli Alfredo. After this she was still hungry so she had 2 slices of the garbage bread roll, then a bowl of snap peas, followed by chips and an ice cream bar. I think it’s safe to say someone is going through a growth spurt. If she is going to eat like this every day I am going to have to get a second job!
The rest of the night we just lazed around watching Mr Bean episodes borrowed from the library.
I now need to figure out what is reasonable to put on today’s to do list. TTYL
