why me?

just kidding. but i do find it somewhat ironic that i took the day off yesterday only to sleep terribly last night, so now i'm going to go into work much less than well rested. this time i have no idea what caused the poor sleep, although i was slightly warm and kept kicking off the covers. other than that though, i had had no caffeine, no alcohol, was well fed, etc.

i'm finishing up breakfast now, and it rocked.

maple-cinn waffles (marked "made with oatbran" on the package... perhaps that's why i like them so much?), 1 with pecan butter and banana, the other with a smidgen of pecan butter, pumpkin butter, a few banana slices, and carob chips (at least i think these are carob chips... they were in my "bulk foods container" but i have both carob and reg). and perfect, local strawberries.

so glad strawberry season is not ending any time soon.

i'm almost out of the pecan butter... i may have to make some more, because i've really really enjoyed it.

depite the sleepiness, my lunch and snacks are all packed:

12-grain harvest bread w/ mustard, mayo, honey-maple turkey, aged hirtenkase cheese, and a pile of herbed greens

i love both hearty seed/grain breads like these as well as soft and fluffy whole wheat sandwich breads. different, but i don't think i actually prefer one over the other. anyone feel the same?

packed w/ the usual veggies... pepper and carrots:


and a snack for the afternoon:

soaked muesli/yogurt leftover from yesterday, pb pretzels

happy humpday everyone!
