The Friday Five

1. What I'm Reading: Still Catch 22

I hate it.   


2. What I'm Listening to:  Anything on the radio that makes me want to dance.  I just want to dance!  Hopefully, this weekend will involve some dancing.  If not, I KNOW next weekend will consist of lots of it. :)  


3. What I'm Grocery Shopping: Lots of fruit.  


 It was all on sale and I couldn't decide, so I bought it all! That huge seedless watermelon was $5, the ginormous cantaloupe was $2, strawberries were 2/$4, blackberries (my favorite!) were 2/$5, and the pineapple were buy 1 get 1 free.  Needless to say, I spent most of last night cutting up fruit.  I brought a lot to our quarterly safety meeting this morning, not because I really wanted to share, but because I'm scared of what will happen to me if I eat it all by myself.

Oh, and I picked up some Peanut Butter & Co. White Chocolate Wonderful.


I've been wanting to try this for ages because I love white chocolate, but have resisted because 1.peanuts aren't Paleo and 2. It's full of sugar.  Although, the ingredient list is actually fairly clean.

   A coupon for $1 off is what finally caused me to cave in and buy it.  I'm terrified to open the jar.  If it's as good as I think it will be, the entire jar will vanish quickly. Saving it and sharing it on my beach trip may be a good idea.  

4. What I'm Eating: this recipe from PaleOMG!

Thank god for the CrockPot with my busy schedule lately!  The only tweak I made was adding adobo peppers.


A salad of spring mix with fresh broccoli, squash, and zucchini was topped with the chicken for a delicious and very filling dinner.



5. What I'm Excited About:

  3. I love the White Chocolate Wonderful! I've been dipping apples in it non-stop for snacks :) A handful of my AP kids chose Catch 22 off the summer reading list last year, got half way through, and chose a new book. It is such a tough one to get through!

  4. Speaking of the radio, how do you feel about that Call Me Maybe song by Carly Rae Jepson? I am so embarrassed to say I love it. Kinda sorta. Yup.

    1. It's awful, but so addicting! It doesn't even make sense, but I can't stop singing it!

  5. I like pb & co mighty maple (and white chocolate wonderful!) - I usually only have it on oatmeal though, because it gets all melty!
