MARKET MADNESS

Yesterday was market day , had some yummy Afghan food

whole wheat  wrap
pumpkin  spread
vegan cream cheese
seasoning

  • Pumpkin Bolani .. spicy and really yummy
Also at the market there was plenty of little cherry tomato's that are just really easy cause you don't need to cut them up to put in salad or pasta salad , i leave them whole ! sometimes i will put them in my breakfast wraps with my spinach and mushrooms for extra pop !!!

 The boys love the  market here in Concord Square
there is a playground near our blanket , we sit back and listen to the band
yesterday was a 70 funk band , pretty groovy baby, yeah!

A BETTER ME

Today was the first time since i started this that i truly realised how great i was feeling when i sat down with Canon at 1pm  in the afternoon and read him a story .... i know what your thinking whats so strange about that ,But  if you really knew me you would know that i never ever sit down and just do nothing I'm always so hyper that i  start stuff up just to make a mess. Like i start a new project even though i have 3 or 4 going on already , so for me this was a happy day to sit with my baby boy in the middle of the afternoon and just chill with our apples on the couch , no TV  just me my baby boy and books !

  1 breakfast was wheatbix ( wholewheat )
vegan butter
super fruits strawberry jam ( no sugar )
apple
 green tea 20 oz ( using my old coffee wawa mug , feels like im drinking my coffee)

lunch was hummus  with whole wheat crackers  ( no sugar  no salt )
2 slices of my rice bread ( made with fresh juice no dairy gluten free)
vegan cream cheese
spinch
fig jam !! (YUM)

this sandwich was salty yet sweet and really filling

DINNER
 goin to the markets to get veg and fruit , they have this whole wheat flat bread vendor who makes vegan spreads to put on them I'm going to get one of those ( Lebanese style )_
