Busy day and crispy treats

By eatingthrough

Just another Tuesday – wake up tired from being up too late Monday night,  present a talk on Sugar to an office group, meet with existing clients, consult with new clients, scoop dinner off the prepared foods bar at Whole Foods, and dodge a monsoon on the way home.

Just another Tuesday.

Highlights of the day were getting my parking validated, dropping off sweets to my mechanic to thank him for being wonderful, eating a Brown Rice Crispy Treat, and buying myself flowers.  I have a $5 per week flower allowance.  

That Crispy Treat I enjoyed for a 3pm snack, with a lovely cup of tea while sitting in my desk chair, my back turned to the computer so I could look out the window with my feet propped up on the radiator.  I spent about fifteen minutes eating that treat and really taking a well deserved break.
