Sunday Funday?

I don't know who came up with that whole "Sunday Funday" business, but they were way off base. Nothing is fun about Sundays. It's the day before Monday and the start of the work week, which translates into frantically trying to finish off your weekend to-do list. In my case, that to-do list includes a lot of homework.

Anyway, I was out pretty late Saturday night and didn't get in bed until 3am. Needless to say, I only woke up at 10:30am Sunday morning. First order of business? Coffee.



While I sipped on my coffee, I decided to skip breakfast and head straight for lunch. So, I preheated the oven and warmed up some lasagna.



After brunch, I started work for the day. It was so beautiful outside that I couldn't resist taking some reading outdoors.



Eventually, it got too windy and I went back indoors to finish up. While completing my Sunday homework marathon, I snacked...a lot.


Roasted Chickpeas


Some sesame sticks


And, a Clif Crunch bar.

Eventually, I ate a real meal.



Spinach, mushrooms, onions, carrots and seitan. Not the best of salads, but it'll do.

I did more homework along with some food and recipe prep. After finally finishing up my assignments, I put together my dinner.

I had a bowl of granola and almond milk while I contemplated my meal.



I found some cute little purple potatoes in my fridge and decided to make a potato salad of sorts.


(The potatoes matched my nails! Made me smile.)

The only problem was that I kinda forgot about them and they overcooked.



So, they became mashed potatoes with some secret sauce.



This sauce is amazing! It's made with chickpeas, almonds, nutritional yeast and a few different spices. I'll be posting a recipe soon. You'll definitely want to make it for yourself. Just trust me on this one, OK?
