Stuff

What. A. Day.

Started at 5AM. I actually woke up at 4:51 with excitement!!

We packed our toiletries and made a cup of coffee and were on the road by 6.

IMG_0236 (640x480) (3)

Soon enough!!

IMG_8245 (640x427) (3)

Stretch break!

IMG_8247 (640x427) (3)

IMG_8246 (640x427) (2)

Breakfast was eaten around 7 and was this cool cereal mix called Rokit Fuel I was sent a while ago to review. I’ve been waiting for the perfect time to use it, and this was certainly it.

IMG_8249 (640x427) (3)

IMG_0231 (640x480) (2)

Early in the morning I mixed the Spice Cookie flavor with half a cup of milk and a banana, hoping for an overnight oats effect. You can eat the Rokit raw or mix it with water in its own pouch, or milk, or heat it up. Very convenient for traveling.

IMG_0230 (640x480) (2)

Stats

IMG_0232 (640x480) (2)

IMG_0233 (640x480) (3)

2 hours later it wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t that good either 🙁 Kind of tasted stale to me, and I thought the ginger was too strong. Matt mixed his with water in a water bottle and I would not recommend that. Some kind of milk is definitely preferred.

10AM snack – rest stop #2

IMG_8250 (640x427)

Some of this as well:

IMG_8252 (427x640)

And I figured I needed some hydration and electrolytes in prep for the big move. I don’t really know a thing about Vitamin Water but at first glance it looked like a good choice for my goals. This flavor was great, but too sweet. I cut it with some water.

IMG_8253 (427x640)

5 hours of driving went by really fast – and look what we found on our street! OUR STUFF!

<3 I missed it so much!!

IMG_0238 (640x480)

We unloaded and unloaded and unloaded and unloaded and unloaded and unloaded and unloaded and unloaded

And then stopped for tinned fish, naturally. What else would you want to eat for fuel when you have no kitchen!? We debated sandwiches and the Whole Foods salad bar, but herring seemed like a better fit.

We LOVEDDDD this flavor of herring!! To bad we don’t have a TJ’s here in Cville yet!!

IMG_8257 (640x427) (3)

There was no water in the house, so we had to make do with hand sanitizer. I’ve also been saving these wipes since the Foodbuzz festival last November!! They came in perfect handy.

IMG_8258 (640x427) (2)

Because we had no water due to a delayed utility truck, we were forced to drink beer. FORCED!!

IMG_8259 (640x427) (3)

IMG_8260 (640x427) (2)

Just forked right in with some hot sauce. If you like seafood, you will love herring!! Like mussels and tuna meshed together.

IMG_8262 (427x640) (2)

On the side, cantaloupe from Karen’s and a peach from Bella Eats!!

IMG_8261 (640x427) (2)

Plus Food Should Taste Good Chocolate chips, which we decided should be called "Mole" (even though they don’t have spices in them) and they are really good!

IMG_8265 (640x427) (2)

Chocolate and fish? A winning combo. I promise.

IMG_8266 (640x427) (3)

Andrea was so kind to stop by and say hello – with local peaches and homemade jam!

IMG_8268 (640x427) (2)

Followed by Jess, who came by to greet us and bring some of the biggest muffins I’ve ever seen!! I didn’t get around to tasting one yet (my hands were so dirty!) but I can’t wait to taste one at breakfast!!

IMG_8269 (640x427) (3)

Unpack Unpack Unpack Unpack Unpack Unpack Unpack Unpack

Bowls anyone!?

IMG_8271 (640x427) (2)

This room is the least disastrous right now!

IMG_8274 (640x427) (3)

I could NOT have survived the day without the help of Anna and Crystal!!! New friends to the rescue. They were totally awesome and saved the day for sure. We got most of the kitchen put together. Whew!

IMG_8310 (640x427) (2)

Matt and I have a (one time) tradition of getting pizza and drinking wine the first night in our new house. Appropriately, we picked up some pizza from the new local station shop just a half mile away (Matt walked to get it!) and drank a local wine we’ve loved from the past.

Local food!

IMG_8278 (640x427) (2)

Veritas!

IMG_8280 (427x640) (3)

IMG_8290 (640x427) (3)

x2 for me!

IMG_8295 (640x427) (3)

IMG_8276 (640x427) (2) 

Salad was just brought from Karen’s in a ziplock and assembled. Dressed in Garlic Gold! I think I got the girls hooked 😉

IMG_8281 (640x427)

IMG_8283 (640x427) (2)

Margarita

IMG_8286 (640x427)

Spicy Pepperoni + Jalapeno

IMG_8287 (640x427)

Wild Mushroom

IMG_8288 (640x427) (3)

IMG_8302 (640x427) (3)

LOVED the pizza! My favorite kind of dough. I had one of each flavor.

IMG_8299 (640x427) (3)

IMG_8303 (640x427)

IMG_8298 (640x427) IMG_8297 (640x427) (3)

IMG_8296 (640x427) (2) 

We just finished putting together our bed. Sheets are on. I am showered. Air conditioning is now on. My feet are aching. And I cannot wait to go to sleep!!

    That pizza looks incredible! That’s my kind of pizza dough too–not cracker thin, but nice and doughy. Where is it from again?

    The story on TJs and Charlottesville is that when the new Whole Foods is built and vacates its current location, a TJ’s is going into the current location across from the mall. That story is a few years old, even though I haven’t heard anything more recent.

    Congrats on unloading and moving into your new home! It’s such an exhausting process, I hope you take a day or two to relax and take it easy soon, you deserve it! 😀

    Curious to know your reaction to the Vitamin Water Zero. I drank it for the 1st time on Saturday and Sunday and both nights I had really restless sleep. When I woke up Monday I made the connection that the only thing different about my diet/routine was the addition of the Zero Vitamin Water. I didnt drinnk it Monday and my sleep has been back to peaceful. Any ideas on what is in it that could be causing me to have that reaction?

    Sounds like a busy day. It’s got to be so exciting that you are there, setting up, and starting the next chapter in your life.

    Just a note about Vitamin Water, I read yesterday about the huge lawsuit the makers (Coca Cola) are facing due the the “health benefits” they list on the bottles. In reality, they’re just not carbonated soda-y sugar-y-ness.

    Personally, I see the “ZERO” kind as being worthwhile, but other than that–don’t drink it!

    Pizza and wine sounds like the PERFECT move-in food, and home renovation food. Actually, when I moved into both my first and second apartments, we had pizza for dinner! I don’t remember what we ate when I moved into my third (current) place. We also had pizza when I helped paint a friend’s apartment. I guess we’ll extend the pizza tradition to our house when we move in two months!

    Weird I think I know Crystal from JMU! Can’t point to where exactly, though… but I think we were in the same year. Anyways, WOW on the bowls!!! Haha 🙂 I’m still hoping to stop by Veritas sometime, I hear from everyone that it’s really good.

    It’s 8:30 in the morning where I am at the moment, but that pizza looks soooo good! I’m really into the wild mushroom one! Making me hungry for pizza for breakfast!

    Congrats on the move! Putting the bed together is THE most sastifying feeling during a move. I always make sure I know exactly where the sheets are and that all of the bedding was packed clean so you can put it on and fall into bed. That and easily locatable toilet paper are a MUST!

    I love the JMU pride, too. I’m a Virginia girl at heart since I spent the best 4 years of my life at JMU earning my undergraduate degree. Go Dukes! Congrats on your move to VA!!!!

    Well done on getting so much of the move done! You guys are stellar! And I love herring – it’s kinda “meatier” than sardines, I think!
