Whole30 Journey - Day 8

Day 8!  It seems like longer.

I knew today was going to be a busy day for me at work.  I might not be cooking a lot but I had enough computer work to keep me busy and some finishing touches to the POS system.

I began my work day as I usually do.  I wake up before my alarm goes off, around 15 minutes.  I get up and let the pups out so I don't get disturb while practicing my yoga.  I've been using the Down Dog app and can customize it for more hamstring opening.  I can't say that my hamstring really feels any better but I know there are other things I need to do to rehab the tendonosis.


The big dawg always next to me during practice.  He is much calmer when I practice in the bedroom versus the living room.  I'm not sure if it's competition with Stryker or not.  After my 30 minute practice the beasties get fed and then I change and get to my breakfast.


I threw the cocoa roasted cauliflower in the skillet with some brussels and bacon.  Add to that some coffee and it was a great breakfast.


I try to limit my use of plastics and the easiest way to bring my lunch to work, specially a stew, is in a mason jar.  I try to repurpose all the glass jars I can.I took the last of the Taj Mahal Chicken with me. I think it tasted even better today that the flavors got to sit together longer.
D told me later that he thought this meal was prison food.  UGH!  Sometimes, ya know!  I'm just glad he ate it and didn't complain like he use to!  Next week I think I'm going to go with Nom Nom Paleo's recipes.  I don't think she meal plans it like Melissa does, but I'm going to give it a try.  I think D will like them a bit more.
The walk home from work was pretty nice, it was the warmest it's been in weeks.  I think it was around 36 and felt like a heat wave!  I certainly felt overdressed, at least I didn't sweat.  Once I got home and fed the animals and did a 20 minute yoga practice.  I decided that I didn't want the beef stew I made tonight, I would save it for tomorrow.  Instead I would make the ahi tuna steaks with veggies.


Ok and bacon.  I pan seared broccoli, asparagus and arugula.  I added some of the sunshine sauce but I wasn't feeling it so I topped it off with some salsa verde instead.  

It's been a long day so I am turning in early!  Until Day 9.
