Hey guys 
Hope y’all had a good Monday. I had a great afternoon of girl talk over soy awake tea lattes with Kelly!
Girlfriends are the best, aren’t they?! Whenever we get together we talk non-stop and then look at our watches and realize it’s been, like, three hours. That’s the mark of a good friendship!
For a snack after tea, I had a half cup of TJ’s yogurt with Kashi:
Got some work done this afternoon and then for dinner I got creative.
Technically, yes I do own a microwave…..BUT it’s in my garage because it really doesn’t fit in my kitchen and I never use it because it’s a pain to haul in the house. And why microwave when you can do pretty much anything in a cast iron??! Tonight I heated up some frozen broccoli and edamame in the good ol’ skillet and then added some shrimp and some TJ’s harvest blend quinoa (LOVE that stuff). I then tossed the whole concoction with some delicious sauces I found in zee fridge:
To produce:
Twas lovely. Really. And oh so healthy, too!
However, after said healthy dinner my sweet tooth really started talking to me and I ended up going to Yogurt Time and getting this bad boy:
Un-freakin-believable. I went to town. This was mint frozen yogurt with (get ready) a little bit of oreo, chocolate chips, graham cracker crumbs and (here it comes) CARAMEL SAUCE! I am 100% a caramel sauce girl. I love chocolate like none other but when it comes to sauce on my ice cream, I go caramel all the way. This reminded me of my favorite collegiate treat of TCBY white chocolate mousse froyo with caramel sauce on top. We had a drive through TCBY in Tuscaloosa and it became an addiction.
I thought the contents of my fridge were funny so I decided to photograph them for you.
Don’t you love the randomness of my million lemons, ultimate burn hot sauce (this is the hot sauce I acquired from the legendary “let’s get hot and sauced party” at Adam and Rocky’s house), sourdough starter and piece of ginger? I need to make something lemony tomorrow for sure. Good times.
I keep procrastinating but I need to write my Health.com article tonight still.
Goodnight!

Your dinner looks fab!
love the sirachi hto sauce! they were doing a special on good morning america on the newest hottest foods fro 2010 and sirachi was one of them! he said we will start seeing it as often as ketchup!
do you keep your dr krackers in the fridge?!?! hmm havent seen that before!
you meals look FANTASTIC!
I’m not sure exactly what was all in the dish you made but you were right. It was lovely and looked good too. Thai red curry paste is one of my all time favorites.
Thanks for sharing!
I haven’t been reading your blog for very long, so I didn’t realize you went to Alabama. So did I! My friends and I visited that TCBY drive-thru A LOT!!! Roll Tide!! Just a couple of days to the big game!
That dinner looks SO.GOOD! I love your addiction to Hot Sauce. I am the same way!!! It makes everything better!
Mmmm Siracha is so yummy…my fiance got me addicted to putting it on every rice dish and eggs!
Do you keep your crackers in the fridge?
Also, thai curry paste pretty much tastes good on anything. I learned how to make a couple different kinds from scratch on a trip to Phuket, Thailand, and it is just like none other!
I just said bye (well, not bye . . more like see you later
) to one of my BF’s at the airport – urgh!! Yuck! I miss her heaps already. But we did have a fabulous time together and as she pointed out, we’ll see each other in 6 months and it’s already this year, so not that far away and something to look forward to!
Glad you had a good time with yours :O)
Dinner looks great Jenna!
But I must say your fro yo looks even better!
You are so lucky to have such cool froyo shops in Cali, we don’t have a lot up here in new England!
Jenna
I’m going to try a soy awake tea latte tomorrow! I hope it does as promised and keeps me awake while I read my nursing books!
I’m very jealous of the frozen yogurt! I don’t have places like that in my town
and of course, that is all I can think of now!
