Round and Round
Bicycles, Reduce Reuse Recycle, Life Cycles, well...you get the idea - there are lots of cycles in life, including food cycles.

Rasberry Jam Kind Of Day
I promised myself that after a super snacky Tuesday I was going to commit to better meals on Wednesday and I think I succeeded.

WIAW with lots of little bites
This month's snacky theme for the month definitely fit the description of my Tuesday eats. I started off on the right track with a balanced breakfast with half of a banana, egg whites and protein powder, blended and cooked in the microwave (sprinkles for color and smiles). Once at work I ate the following nibbles …
