Interesting response to the NuNaturals post . I realized, since I did a two posts in a row about specific companies, I'd like to make something clear - I get nothing out of this. I'm not writing ads. I do like to give back to those who give to me, so when I win something I'm likely to post about it, but I wouldn't ever say I like something that I don't. I mentioned in my post on motorcycle boots that I ordered a pair. Well, they came in the mail! Here they are: I'll get a better picture later. The company is Ikon & Co, which I couldn't find much info about. I bought them on the sample sale site Beyond the Rack.

Mexican Restaurant Fail

A cold front blew in so it was only about 85 degrees today. Brr! Today I ate: Black beans and quinoa Some grapes Broccoli with hummus 1/2 can no salt added Mushroom and Barley soup 1 banana We went to a Mexican restaurant for dinner but they said they couldn't make me any oil-free vegetables so I just drank water and ate when I got home. If I had really wanted to eat something I could have found something, but it wasn't worth it to me. Unfortunately, eating in restaurants is often more stressful than it's worth when trying to eat healthily and watch caloric intake. But my parents were cool and didn't make me feel like a weirdo or not eating with them. I know I've hung out with people before who can't stand if you go to a restaurant and don't eat. Tomorrow I'm on babysitting duty watching my little brother while my stepmom's at work. I'm excited because I looove him!
