Notice the new header? Big thank you to my twin brother Travis for designing it! The TFG facelift is still in progress, but this new header is a great start, don’t ya think?

I miss blogging.

Hello world. I am still here, and I know I say I’m going to get back into the blogging habit, but life has been full of a few things:

  • running a business
  • planning a wedding (only 4 months to go!)
  • yoga/running

But mostly the top 2 things on the list. I also got food poisoning last week from chicken I cooked…my fiance was feeling it too. It was a full weekend of feeling horrible, but that has passed and even That Foodie Girl gets good poisoning and doesn’t even want to think about food.

Here are a few images I will leave you with for the weekend:

blueberriesA delicious pre-yoga snack. Cold, ripe blueberries.

quinoa and eggsOne of the most delicious combinations of flavor and texture: quinoa cooked in cream of mushroom soup with diced bell pepper and zucchini. Topped with a fried egg and cracked pepper. This. was. incredible.

central market veggiesVeggies all around. Dallas people– this is at the Lover’s Lane location. You can choose as many fresh vegetables as you want and they’ll stir fry it or toss it into a pasta of your choice. I got the stir fry and it was very tasty.

And finally, my sweet baby cousin Pierce. He was looking at himself on my phone.

pierceHave a great weekend!

Bon Appétit,

new apartment and healthy eats

I’m almost all moved into my new apartment! It’s pretty cute, and the location rocks.

It will only be a year at this apartment, but I think it will be an awesome place to live.

Anyway! On to my eats lately. I’ve really been trying hard to do a What I Ate Wednesday, and I got really close this week…until I forgot to photograph my dinner and I forgot it was Wednesday. Grrreat. So here’s some things I’ve had lately.

Meet Mr. Green Drink. You’ve probably already met, but this one is with almond milk instead of my usual orange juice. It made it less sweet (a good thing) but a little too creamy. Jam packed with spinach as usual.

For lunch I had the other half of my Central Market sandwich. I love that they have a new sandwich bar where you can order up a custom sandwich. This one was whole wheat bread, turkey, hummus, their delicious pesto, cucumber & arugula. It really hit the spot. Ripe strawberries on the side. Let me just tell you I was hungry a few hours later…too small of a lunch for me!

What is your go-to lunch? I’ve been sticking to either sandwiches or tacos. Salads have not piqued my interest in the slightest.

Bon Appétit,
