It's the little things

Thing 1 & Thing 2 are at their dad's house for 2 days this week. Lavagirl is in summer school. The boy sleeps late.

I woke up at 9am, got dressed, grabbed an apple & headed to Pilates. When I was finished I still had an hour before I had to grab Lavagirl off the bus. I went to a shopping center where I proceeded to hit up Starbucks for my skinny vanilla latte. Then I walked over to Michael's with the kids in mind. I purchased molding clay, sidewalk chalk, jump ropes & a puzzle for Lavagirl to help with her letters.

Then it was me time. I walked to Whole Foods - the most beautiful grocery store in the world. How can a grocery store be beautiful? Let me tell you. I walk in past the fresh basil plants & inhale the heavenly aroma. Then I walk through the luscious produce past the gourmet cheeses & then on to the delicious olive bar. I stopped to pick up some Tzatziki sauce. This is the only store I know that I can purchase the sauce instead of making it & it's just as good as any Greek restaurant. I wandered through the snack section looking for a low-calorie option to go with my Tzatziki. Yes, I am that girl. Finally I pick up some Wasa bread crisps & my favorite, almond butter. I did manage to find some low-calorie mini whole wheat pita loaves for my Tzatziki! I left the store wandering through the baked good aisle eye balling the chocolate 2-bite macaroons.

I was at the bus top at 11:30 to pick up Lavagirl feeling refreshed &, well, hungry.
