Cool Finds lunch.....

I did not bring my running rain gear today since it is pouring outside and I didn't plan on it. (boo, hisss!) That's ok though because I still found a way to make my lunch absolutely productive. I went shopping at lunch to pick up all the goodies I need to make up my bake sale package and then some.

When I came back from shopping, I quickly heated up some leftover Fettucine with Shrimp from last night with a few cherry tomatoes tossed on top. I served it up on a bed of steamed organic spinach.

With a side of cantaloupe:

And being one to pretty much never pass up anything avocado like.....I had 1/2 this VEGAN/Gluten Free Avocado Veggie roll my co-worker offered up. OMG ~ This was soooo good....I must remember this the next time I am near the place that sells these.

PAY ATTENTION ALL MY WW FRIENDS ~ Check out this super cool find I picked up while I was out shopping. I am not usually a big fan of treats that are not too clean, but, some things are just worth it. I will take one for the team to try these out for you all. Hello snickers bar ice cream that is only 3 POINTs!!! Don't they look sooooo good! I will definitely be fitting one of these into my day at some point.....it might be a good thing since I will be surrounded by baked stuff.

Did I mention that I am also baking a cake plus cookies tonight for my really good friends birthday tomorrow?! I serioulsy need more time in my day.......

Want to help me make a decision?

She LOVES carrot cake and fruit based cakes and of course anything chocolate. So in my usual fashion, I picked up stuff to make all 3.

Here are the choices - which one do you think I should make?

1.
Banana-Raspberry Cake with Lemon Cream Cheese Frosting
2. Carrot Cake Cupcakes
3. Chocolate Chocolate Chip Cupcakes


I already know I am tossing in some Snicker's Surprise Cookies because The Husband requested them since I am baking again (LOL - um, not part of the bake sale package, but, I love him so how do I say now?)

Ok ~ Let me know your thoughts and be sure to check back tonight for more baking fun and a super cool dinner!

  5. Wendy ~ I've made this cake before and it is incredible. I LOVE that it is lowfat and light on calories too. I don't feel too guilty that way.

    Jane ~ I KNOW - I LOVE dark chocolate chips especially...it was a tough decision.

    Kirwin ~ It WAS amazing...I got it at Raley's but I know WF makes a version too - you could always ask them to make one this way? I had the shrimp one from their about a week ago.

    Hi Sarah ~ Thanks for the compliment....I look forward to hearing your comments :)
