Look what I found in the mail today.
I am a sucker for keepsake momentos like this. I have an urge to buy a frame and hang it on the wall next to medal and number. 🙂
I can not believe it has already been a month and a half since my marathon! Its an experience I want to just keep reliving in my head over and over again. I love racing and am antsy for our race season to start up again in Florida in September.
I already have my first race lined up for September 26 – Miracle Miles, which I completed last year with Caitlin. I was giddy as a school girl browsing the registration information online today. Thinking about races just get my blood pumping!
Food gets my blood pumping as well!
Today I had a pack of Almonds and a Passion Fruit Dried Fruit Leather for my snack.
I bought some Bok Choy the other week, hoping I would do something creative with it, but instead it just sat in my fridge. After googling what to do with bok choy the only thing I could come up with was stir fry. So much for creativity. Oh well, I knew I had to eat it tonight, so a simple stir fry it was.
For the stir fry I heated my wok on high and coated it with sesame oil before adding my veggies, which included
- Bok Choy
- Onion
- Carrots
- Garlic
- Mushrooms
- Snap Peas
- Tomato
- Craisins
Once the veggies were soft I made a simple sauce Sesame Oil, Soy Sauce, Vinegar, Apricot Preserves, Ground Ginger Root, Red Pepper Flakes and Sesame Seeds then added it to the pan.
I topped my stir fry with left over Baked Tofu and Raw Cashews.
The bok choy reminded me of any other green, specifically my below souther collard. I thought it was refreshing in the stir fry. My impromptu sauce with the addition of apricot preserves gave the dish a nice sweet and spicy kick. 🙂
Does anyone have any fun suggestions for next time I contemplate bok choy?
For dessert I discovered something in my freezer that has gone ignored for far too long.
Girl Scout Thin Mints! I enjoyed a four cookie serving. 😉
While eating dinner/ dessert I watched the movie Push I had received through NetFlix. Take my advice, DO NOT see that movie. :/
That is all.
