A Day in the Life: Simple Pleasures

I love us!I love us! (Photo, circa 2007 or 2008)

Don’t you just love when you have one of those perfect days

And it’s just ordinary stuff?

Yesterday I was just working for my chiropractor/nutritionist clients and I was so happy because I scored a lecture for one of them. It’s so rewarding when hard work pays off.

Then I went to lunch.

Little things make me so happy, like the fact that Whole Foods had hot sauce in their dining section! They don’t always have it, but the fact that they did make my meal extra special — yum! I can eat so much more greens and healthy foods when I have a hot sauce topping! (I’m sorry sea salt, I’ll be good again and use you real soon!)

My fixI worship you, oh great Tabasco Sauce!

I had some extra time after my lunch to go visit my husband Dennis at his job and treat him to a coffee break at Dunkin’ Donuts.

Dunkin DonutsTo hell with  foo-foo coffee, Dunkin’ Donuts coffee is the BEST!

But back to healthy — my nutritionist client, Dr. Jason, gave me a recipe for Paleo WOW Coconut Bread. I will be making that this weekend and I’ll let you know how it turns out. If it’s delicious as it sounds I will post recipes!

At the end of the day I did my Bollywood work-out. I felt so good and energized! YAY!

BollywoodHooray for Bollywood!

And then had some quality time with my husband and kitties, talked on the phone to our friend Tommy, and watched American Idol.

And at the end of the night, snuggled up, went to sleep and dreamed I had a beautiful snuggly little puppy that looked like this:

ain't no bugs on me

See you in my dreams!

  • Awww what a cute little pup. Sounds like an awesome day. I agree about the foo foo coffee’s the little donut shop coffee’s are fine for me and taste much better than that BIG FAMOUS place that starts with an S…..
    anyway, glad you had such a great day.

    • LOL! Yeah, I can’t stand the pretense at those places. And the service is always better at Dunkin, especially the one we were at :)

      Isn’t that pup the most?! I get all giddy thinking about that dream :)

  • My daughter took me and my grandsons on a tour of the Tabasco Hot Sauce plant in Avery Island, Louisiana last summer. They gave us miniature bottles of the hot sauce as souvenirs of the visit. Your article reminded me of that visit.

    • That sounds so cool Andrew! In Wildwood, NJ, there’s a mall on the boardwalk and one of the stores is dedicated to Tabasco sauce — there are hundreds of varieties to choose from, including the miniature bottles you speak of. It’s heaven ;)

      • One of those miniature bottles of Tabasco Hot Sauce would last me about 20 years. Was the Atlantic City boardwalk in 1957 and remember buying salt water taffy. I remember the hucksters on the boardwalk selling their wares.
