A Fast Food Quick Fix

by Nicci on 12/27/2008

For a lazy day I woke up at 5am and could not go back to sleep. I kept myself entertained by reading some celebrity gossip sites and reading Twilight. I wasn’t hungry, so breakfast was a glass of orange juice. I bought ”The Firm” workout dvd yesterday and attempted to do it this morning. Those ladies move fast but I got the moves down after 20 minutes into it.



I decided to give myself a cheat/semi-healthy lunch. If that can really exist…i tried. I wanted McDonald’s which is a ”every 3 months craving”; I settled for a side salad w/ vinaigrette dressing and a parfait. Have you noticed the parfaits have been downsized just like items in the grocery stores…so tiny. Im only going to post pics of lunch b/c i still haven’t decided whats for dinner…though its still early. I’m being naughty and reading Twilight w/ a glass of wine.

This is some wine i bought last weekend and never finished, didn’t
even drink half the bottle. I’m still trying to find a wine to like!
Good night to all.

Back on Track

by Nicci on 12/26/2008

This morning I slept in until 10am, so much for early running. I was filling lazy and did not feel like driving to the gym, so I’m putting it off till tonight! I tried this new cereal ”Flax & Fiber Crunch”, that My mom had bought at the 99 cent store. Boy! do I love that store b/c they have a frozen food section also with name brand items. I hadn’t seen this cereal before but i looked it up and its around $3.99, so 99 cents is a deal. She ended up buying 6 bags of this cereal too. I added it to my Stoneyfields yogurt for breakfast and it was good.

Lunch was some leftovers from last week: Turkey meat wrapped in a whole wheat tortilla w/ some hummus, spinach and tomatoes! Tonight my BEST FRIEND KARI and I are going on our weekly Mr. Chopsticks dinner date; which we missed last week. Sushi it is tonight, so pics will be up tomorrow.

Sorry, I took these pics on my camcorder, not the best quality.

Happy Friday

by Nicci on 12/26/2008

I couldn’t wait till next week so I went ahead and downloaded some pics.
Here are just a few of the things I received for Christmas:




I love this Angel mug Chris’ Grandmother gave me along with some Bath & Body Works.
I was just saying last week, I needed a mug for my tea in the morning at work. The ”love” frame is from his Aunt Beverly, which I cant wait to put a picture of us in it.

Merry Christmas Everyone

by Nicci on 12/25/2008

I cant believe this year is almost over, but I cant wait to see what the new year will bring. Chris and I went to his Grandparents church for Christmas Eve instead of our church. We met up with his Aunt, Uncle and parents and brother, we ran a little late…oops. The service was very nice. We sang Christmas songs in between lighting the Advent candles and reading some scriptures. A couple special readings and songs and communion. We had already done communion at our church, but I figure there is nothing wrong with doing it twice in a month. Then at the end we all sang one last hymn as they passed out smaller candles for us all to hold. Then off to his grandparents for dinner and present openings. Christmas day with my family was great too. They always wake me up extra early to open gifts, I should have been prepared but I wanted to sleep in. I didn’t get a camera, but I got something even better…A CAMCORDER! I was so excited but it does have a camera also. So, I’ll be downloading pics this weekend. I’m too into my Twilight book right now. I’m only on the sixth chapter but I’m off till Monday… I think I’m using my B&N gift card tomorrow and buying New Moon. Off to bed, so everyone have a great weekend!
