Thankful!

Day FIVE!!! Soon I'll be in double digits :-)

Breakfast: My smoothie and some scrambled eggs!! Tasty!!

Snack time: I went to People's Pharmacy which is so much more of a pharmacy than CVS! They have compound drugs/medicine! And tons of gluten free food, and not just the boring stuff! More like the cookies, brownies, etc.  I found some Sharkie fruit snacks, and boy, they took me back to my childhood version of Shark fruit snacks!

For lunch, I had the leftovers from last night!! I found myself licking my fork!! Can't wait to grill some salmon again! During my lunch break, I made some fantastically easy hummus! It came out better than the first time particularly because of the texture! I took it as my snack and my co-workers loved it! We ate it with carrots and those Beanitos chips! One of my co-workers even suggested that I make an office supply of it! Watch out local farmer's market! My Vitamix and I can go far ;-)

When dinner time rolled around, we were exhausted and had zero energy to make food or go to the grocery store to get the items we would need! We had several different recipe options but we were missing a few ingredients for each of them!! I'm oh-so-grateful for Z Pizza being in my backyard!! It opened several weeks after we moved here and we knew that it would be a fantastic fall-back once a month when we were too exhausted to make dinner but wanted something relatively healthy! If you have never been to Z Pizza, I suggest you order from them this weekend! Here ya go: http://www.zpizza.com/ You can thank me later ;-) Every person who has tried this pizza on my recommendation has been thankful!! My aunt even stated that they have the best gluten free pizza crust she's had! Even better than the expensive restaurant down the road! We ordered our own personal pizzas tonight and mine was so decadent! Obviously I got the gluten free crust with roasted garlic sauce!! I topped my pizza with mozzarella cheese, grilled chicken with zucchini!! It took more willpower not to eat the entire pizza than it took for me not to buy everything in the grocery store the other night!!

They also sell gluten free cookies! We bought two of them but I only ate half of the lemon zest one ;-) I want to share them with my aunt tomorrow!!
P.S. It was difficult to eat said cookie while crying over Grey's Anatomy!!
