What I Ate Wednesday [Thai Edition]

Guess what? I totally remembered [almost] to take a photo of all my food for a What I Ate Wednesday post! I was actually really excited about it until I realized this is definitely one of my boring days of eats. They’re all Instagram photos, too, because I’m straight classy like that and all the cool kids are doing it.

Breakfast of champions. A brownish green smoothie of awesome taken on a brown table. This Instagram filter is doing wonders. It’s basically Oh She Glow’s Chocolate Cake Batter Smoothie with the addition of spinach. Is it awesome? Hell yeah, it is. Coconut milk, rolled oats, frozen banana, frozen spinach, coconut peanut butter, cocoa powder, chocolate chips, cinnamon, a couple drops of NuNaturals vanilla stevia. Blend. Go. It’s thick, creamy, and chocolaty delicious. Oh, and I share with Andrew.

[NOT PICTURED: Two spoonfuls of the leftover plain Greek yogurt from last week. Can’t let it go bad. Usually I have a handful of pepitas.]

[NOT PICTURED: Me sticking a spoon straight into the peanut butter jar that I keep at my desk. I usually sit there with the spoon in my mouth while I work. No one has come to my cubicle while this is going on to give me weird looks, but I’m sure it’ll happen.]

Confession. This photo is from yesterday. I walked up to one of the food cart pods by my office, and picked up some spicy coconut noodles with chicken from Poompui. There were a ton of green beans, chilies, and sprouts. I ate half yesterday by the Keller Fountain [complete with exposed knees! That’s the plastic sack, not a plastic skirt btw], and the rest today at my desk before I went out for a walk. The leftovers were 94% devoured before I realized that I forgot to take a photo. That didn’t take long for me to forget, did it? And in case you’re wondering, I took this photo yesterday to rub it in Andrew’s face that I was eating it. We do that a lot. It’s the things fairy tales should be are made of.

[NOT PICTURED: Another spoonful of peanut butter. Exciting!]

Dinner. Pad Woon Sen from Thai Ginger—stir fried bean thread noodles with egg, cabbage, celery, mushroom, onion, baby corn, carrot, cabbage, spinach, bell peppers, tomato, garlic sauce with chicken. This was new to me, I usually get Pad Kee Mao. The garlic sauce was a little sweeter than I would have liked, but the rest was super, super good. If I had some more hot sauce, it would have been perfect.

So yeah, lots of Thai, peanut butter, and coconut today. A complete lack of beverages other than water and a cup of coffee at work. Oh and a beer in bed while I read. Are you asleep yet? I would be.
