Sorry about yesterday’s bum post. I guess that’s what happens when you’re in a bum mood. Stupid hormones. I digress…
I’m in a much better mood today. We’re all one day closer to Friday. My book club meets tonight. And of course it’s What I Ate Wednesday time! Woohoo! Be sure to check out Peas & Crayons for other great meal ideas. I stole this little ditty about Jack and Dianne WIAW from her site, and it helps explain why I love it:
[Cause over here, we like to party!]
Dinner was a simple dinner straight from the kids’ menu, but I don’t care. It’s an organic chicken frank on a wheat bun with onions. I assume I also had about 2 cups of cantaloupe.
As you can see, I do not have a melon baller. But I’m loving this melon so much that I think I am actually a melon baller, if you will. Eatin’ melon the flyyyyyy way… (You’re welcome. You know you’re going to have this song in your head all day.)
I also had a hearty serving of all-natural peeb and some totally unnatural popcorn. It was the last bag of the pack, so hopefully I’ll swing for something more natural next time!
Lastly (sorry… long post… too many saved words from the weekend?), I have not only been eating, but I’ve been eaten. I have soooooo many verrrrrry itchy bug bites from the cookout this weekend. It’s driving me bonkers!
What’s the best thing you’ve eaten lately? Is that song in your head yet???

I have a lot of bug bites, too! Best thing I’ve eaten, hmmm…hopefully dinner tonight – buffalo chicken enchiladas
Glad you’re over the womanly blues a bit…I am so there, too. UGH!
September 7, 2011 at 7:22 am
Yummmm I love fresh melon! And that veggie bowl? Glorious
Happy WIAW!

Happy WIAW!

Have a great day girl!

They were really good, but I think my fav (non-bratwurst-style-frank/dog) are the beef ones by Applegate Farms.

The best thing I had so far were Buffalo Wings on labor day. SO bad but SO good!
September 7, 2011 at 9:06 am
Yum! I had a buffalo chicken sandwich this weekend, and it was pretty glorious.

I love greek yogurt and Kashi cereal – more specifically toasted berry crumble.
September 7, 2011 at 8:41 am
Looks like a good Wednesday!
September 7, 2011 at 9:45 am
Haha, your dinner made me smile
Reminds me of my childhood 
Best thing Ive eaten lately?? Todays rye-crusted pizza with tons of roasted veggies! YUM!

I refuse to play the song and think about the song because it will be stuck in my head. hah! I had apple pie last night and it was perrrrfect. I contemplated having some for breakfast.
September 7, 2011 at 10:09 am
I love eating greek yogurt with raspberries and cereal! Yum

I never was a hot dog person, but I had a bite of an organic beef dog yesterday, and I started craving the Pigs in a Blanket from my youth…

Love “kid” meals. So simple but satisfying too!! Do you put PB on the popcorn? I tried that the other day with my kids and they loved it =)
September 7, 2011 at 10:57 am
Nope – I ate it by the spoonful. That’s a good idea though. I may try that next time.
September 7, 2011 at 11:01 am
That song gets stuck in my head AT LEAST once a week. And the best thing I’ve eaten lately is the cranberry granola I got in your giveaway box ;D LOVE IT.

I just bought my first cantaloupe of the year this morning. I am a bit behind on the summer melon craze. Last week I bought a 23.15 pound watermelon and had to eat it all by myself. Definite melon baller over here.
September 7, 2011 at 1:26 pm
Dang girl! You are a true melon baller
September 7, 2011 at 2:21 pm
Steamed brussel sprouts for lunch. I ate for two, as Grandpa does not have the little cabbage on his list of “My favorite foods.” In fact, think it’s not on his list at all. So I love them for both of us
Glad your day is going better.
Take care ~ Michele

I’ve never seen organic chicken franks. Everywhere I look I just see beef franks. I’d love to find organic chicken ones. Tell me they are from TJ’s, please?
September 7, 2011 at 2:39 pm
They actually came from a regular ole’ grocery store. Funny thing is, I was looking for Applegate Farms organic beef ones!
September 7, 2011 at 3:05 pm
Thumbs up for dinners from the kids menu! Sometimes you gotta do it!
Best thing I’ve eaten lately was BBQ chicken pizza. Yum!
September 7, 2011 at 3:44 pm
Love your message about WIAW!
The best thing I’ve eaten lately is a shrimp and cheddar goat cheese quesadilla on brown rice tortilla. I want more
September 7, 2011 at 4:37 pm
Thank youuuu for totally intensifying the lingering popcorn craving that’s been following me around all week
I’m going to have to get my hands on some stat. And I go through melons so fast that I don’t even bother cutting them up nicely. I just split them in half, scoop out the seeds, and get to work
September 7, 2011 at 4:56 pm
Ah….I have melon in my fridge too – I suppose that it makes me a melon baller too (lol!) Best thing I’ve had recently – I’ve recently been hooked on avocados!
September 8, 2011 at 5:08 am
Holla’ – another baller!
September 7, 2011 at 5:00 pm
there is nothing better than cereal and yogurt. nothing. much
September 7, 2011 at 6:46 pm
Boo for the bites!! That’s no fun. A melon baller would be awesome to have

September 7, 2011 at 8:11 pm

I made Ina Garten’s croque monsieur today, and it was fabulous!
September 7, 2011 at 8:40 pm
Oh yes that song is in my head now! haha
Best thing I ate recently was a new type of Almond Butter I tried
September 7, 2011 at 10:25 pm
I love when melon is in a perfectly shaped ball,especially in fruit salads. I don’t have a melon baller either, but I should get one now.
September 7, 2011 at 10:27 pm
LOVE quinoa bowls! And now I have Jack and Dianne in my head! LOL!
September 7, 2011 at 10:52 pm
hahaha thanks for getting that song stuck in my head!
My mom used to always make fruit salads with a melon baller and I always thought it was so cool!
September 7, 2011 at 11:12 pm
I love chicken dogs! Something so delicious about eating something on a hot dog bun!
September 8, 2011 at 12:28 am
My mom is the only person I know with a melon baller.
