I'm so proud of my lunch today - a homemade buffalo chicken quesadilla. I do realize that I probably didn't invent anything new, but I did make this for myself for the first time. A tortilla, skinless/boneless cooked chicken leftover from the chicken spaghetti I made last night (my menu yesterday needs to be slightly altered, but the chicken spaghetti has the same number of calories as the baked ziti that I listed, so no biggie), pepperjack cheese, hot sauce, and fat free ranch dressing. It was delicious! As I have previously mentioned, I love anything that has been "buffalo-fied". I should open a restaurant that only has buffalo items on the menu. YUM!
Anyway, here's my menu for today:
Breakfast: cereal - 150 calories
Lunch: buffalo chicken quesadilla (300 calories), baked cheetos (100 calories), grapes (50 calories), oatmeal creme pie (160 calories)
Dinner: Hmm...probably the ziti that I didn't make last night...500 calories
Total: 1260 (and I worked out too!)

A Rolo McFlurry?!
Are you aware that McDonald's has launched (for a limited time) a Rolo McFlurry? Really? How yummy does this sound? I haven't had a Rolo in years. I loved them as a kid, so I was excited to see this. I managed to restrain myself today (it was 10:30 in the morning when I saw it on a sign), but I can guarantee it's coming in the near future.
I went shoe shopping this morning with Caleb. Glen is at church doing a car wash, so Caleb and I were on our own. I thought about taking Caleb to wash cars, but somehow this didn't seem to be the best idea. So we went to Kohl's, TJ Maxx, DSW, 2 different Ross's, and Marshalls. I'm trying to find dressy, but comfortable black and brown shoes for work. I did find a pair of black sandals, but no luck on the brown shoes. Caleb found a pair of Elmo tennis shoes. He was super excited about them, and they were on clearance (he's a bargain shopper, too) so we bought them.
I think I'm going to go get a library card. I haven't checked out a library book in forever. Any suggestions? I have a short list, but I think they are mostly new releases which means I will be number 434 on the list.
Thursday:
Breakfast: Cereal - 150 calories
Lunch: Leftover spaghetti (400 calories)
Snack: part of a Cinnabon at the mall (Have you ever had one of these? I shared it with Glen and Caleb, they are like a little slice of heaven. YUM!)
Dinner: Buffalo chicken cutlets and risotto (600 calories)
Total: 1150 + part of a Cinnabon
Friday: (I worked out today!)
Breakfast: cereal - 150 calories
Lunch: 2 chili dogs (400 calories)
Dinner: I went to a dinner party - I had a cheeseburger, a few chips, a few bites of potato salad, pickle, apple pie with a scoop of ice cream
Saturday:
No breakfast. I ate a couple handful of goldfish on my shopping expedition with Caleb (we were hungry) 100 calories.
Lunch: Subway turkey sandwich, pretzels, 100 calorie brownie (570 calories)
Dinner: ziti with tomato basil marinara and asiago cheese sauce (500 calories)
Dessert: ice cream - 130 calories
Total: 1300 calories

Summer, Day 1.
I'm getting terrible at daily blogging. I frequently don't remember until I'm laying on the sofa half asleep, and then I don't want to get up and do it. Remember when I wrote every day? But, yesterday was my last day of work for awhile (I <3 summer vacation!). So here goes today:
Breakfast: cereal - 150 calories
Lunch: 2 chili dogs - 400 calories (light hot dogs and light buns!)
Dinner: Spaghetti -400 calories (or poppyseed chicken if my mood changes - also 400 calories)
Ice cream - 130 calories
Since it's only 9:45 in the morning, I don't really know what snacks I may eat. When I'm at work, I rarely snack because it's not conducive to my job. In the summer, though, it's much easier to grab a snack during the day, especially when I'm giving something to Caleb. Today our exciting summer agenda includes: going to the doctor.
Oh boy.
