Nothing exciting to report!
- I think I was over-prepared for my MET exam today – always a good thing! It went well.
- I got some good work done during Nutr. Education time because class was made optional to work on projects.
- MNT was informative and interesting as always.
Afternoon snacks packed. Lunch kept me full all afternoon and I ate the grapefruit at 5PM and wasn’t hungry for the bar.
During our 6:15 MNT break I ate my dinner – a romaine + veggie + almond salad (so easy to grab + go!) topped with a slice of ED&BV Lentil Pie and some leftover Newk’s dressing.
By the time I got home at 8:15 I was ready for an evening snack. And hungry for carbs! Enter new box of cereal sent as a sample from Erewhon.
I don’t think I’d rely on this as a breakfast cereal due to being low in fiber and protein relatively speaking, but as a snack it was perfect.
With soymilk. Loved the slightly sweet flakes. They reminded me of cereals from my childhood in a comforting way. It tasted crunchy and delish.
A second smaller bowl was required to finish off my milk and hunger!
Tomorrow I am looking forward to finishing off two small projects that have been hanging over me while I was busy with Metabolism studying and then I’m packing for San Francisco and headed to one final class before the weekend officially begins!
I am so tired from this long day and ready to go climb in bed!

September 23, 2009 at 8:49 pmTHat cereal looks so good. I love strawberries in cereal like that. And healthy!
Jenna says
September 23, 2009 at 8:50 pmThat cereal is reminding me of Special K with Berries, which I love!
I am on a total kick of having a small bowl of cereal before bed as my ‘dessert’, which will probably be the case tonight as well.
Get some good sleep dear!
Rebecca says
September 23, 2009 at 8:50 pmI think I may need some cereal for a bedtime snack. 🙂
Deirdre says
September 23, 2009 at 8:52 pmRandom question but does that cereal taste like Special K with Strawberries?
Marlow says
September 23, 2009 at 8:54 pmThat cereal looks great! As a gluten free person I bet I would LOVE it! Thanks for the review!
Emily, homecookedem says
September 23, 2009 at 8:59 pmCereal is the best bed time snack! 🙂 I bet my husband would love that cereal since it’s GF!!
angieinatlanta says
September 23, 2009 at 8:59 pmYay for being over-prepared! Isn’t that just the best feeling?
I used to crave carbs after tests as well; I wonder if it has something to do with the mental exertion?
Melissa says
September 23, 2009 at 9:01 pmMmmm..that cereal sounds great! I wish I could go to San Fran too! hehe – I am sure it will be a lot of fun! Hope you get a good nights rest! 🙂
Cynthia (It All Changes) says
September 23, 2009 at 9:01 pmWay better to be over prepared than under.
I totally reach for cereal as a snack more than a meal. I actually had my Kashi sample with some greek yogurt for a snack today.
Emily says
September 23, 2009 at 9:03 pmLove that flavour of kind bars. SO yummy!
Also, I’ve just started my own food blog and have been reading yours (along with quite a few others) for awhile. I’m excited I can actually comment you now!

Valerie (College Girl Eats) says
September 23, 2009 at 9:23 pmI love cereal as a snack! You’re right, it’s not always satisfying enough for a meal. It’s also gone so fast too. Perfect for snacking though!
Allison (Balance in Bites) says
September 23, 2009 at 9:33 pmBeing overprepared is ALWAYS better than being underprepared!!
And I love those KIND bars… so simple, and so yummy. =)
Sarah @ The Foodie Diaries says
September 23, 2009 at 9:52 pmCereal bowls are made to be refilled, duh… Looks like more delicious version of Special K strawb!
kay (eating machine) says
September 23, 2009 at 9:58 pmi love yummy (less healthy cereals as a dessert!
Joelle (The Pancake Girl) says
September 23, 2009 at 9:58 pmI really appreciate how you always seem to listen to your hunger cues and not eat the extra snack even though you’ve got it packed and there with you during the day- sometimes I forget intuitive eating!
Cara (Cara Craves...) says
September 23, 2009 at 10:03 pmI am a true cereal lover!
If I had to choose one food to eat for the rest of my life, it would be cereal!
Heather @ Health, Happiness, and Hope says
September 23, 2009 at 10:15 pmGlad to hear the test went well. I have to agree that it’s always a good feeling when you’re overprepared and just KNOW you aced an exam. 🙂
That cereal looks like the perfect snack! Enjoy the rest of your evening!
MarathonVal says

Madeline @ Greens and Jeans says
September 24, 2009 at 7:40 amthere is nothing better than being able to go through a test with confidence!
CaSaundra says
September 24, 2009 at 7:56 amThe cereal almost sounds like Special K Strawberry, which I like as a snack too, not a morning meal.
Kath says
September 24, 2009 at 8:30 amRe. Special K – I suppose it does taste like that! I don’t know if I’ve ever had Special K, but I’d imagine they are very similar.
