Two Courses

by Heather on September 29, 2009

I needed a quick dinner before my meetings and yoga tonight. 

Meet course 1: Grapes

These are some of the best grapes I have had in a long time – crispy and sweet!

Meet course 2: Soynut butter and Jelly sandwich on a Pepperidge Farm Whole Wheat Deli Flat

With a view of my notebook – and my Sigg bottle in the background.  Very Rose- like

Why is soynut butter and jelly one of the most comforting meals?  I always feel more content after I eat one. 

Yoga was great today – we did a lot of hip opening exercises – boy can I feel it.  The last few minutes, our teacher walked us through a breathing exercise to help us relax, and clear our heads.  I felt great after this – with a more comfortable bed and a blanket, I probably would have fallen asleep.

September 29, 2009:  Stop Using Straws Silly

When I enjoy my weekly or biweekly smoothie, I use a straw.  Something about the straw makes it feel more milkshake-like.  After seeing re-usable straws last week on Tina’s blog, I knew I needed to get them.  Re-usable straws that are dishwasher safe – yes please. 

I ordered my straws and used them for the first time today!

How wonderful are these straws – so much less wasteful! 

Not only am I going to stop using straws at home, but try to reduce by straw usage over all at restaurants.   

Are you a straw user?

Very interesting. I use straws all the time. But I just keep reusing the same plastic straws. I don’t put them in the dishwasher, but I do rinse and reuse. Probably not the most sanitary. I’ll have to look into these reusable straws.

Hi Shannon – those straws are great – and not too pricey! I highly recommend them!
