All plans for shopping fell to the wayside when I got stuck cleaning the house. I didn’t mean to!! I really meant to go shopping. But when I finished unclogging our shower drain at 11:45 it was a little too late for a full day of shopping and lunch at home.
Shorts can wait. It’s not like I don’t have some I can wear all week.
I did make it to Disneyland though:
I just picked up some fruit (3 kinds of berries, peaches, bananas!) and a few veggies (corn, mushrooms, pepper!) plus Vanilla Soy Milk for a fun change. I get soy milk every 10th milk or so for fun. I do love the taste.
When I got back home I was hungry and ready for a Hugh Jass salad featuring all kinds of leftovers.
Garden lettuce, spinach, slaw, salmon, maytag blue cheese (not my favorite..), Dakota bread croutons – lots to munch!
Dessert was a bowlful of burries
I’m spending the day on the couch watching SYTYCD – hours and hours of it! I LOVE this show!
My favorite shows of all time in order:
- Gossip Girl
- House Hunters
- SYTYCD
- Property Virgins
- The Office
- Glee
- 30 Rock
- Selling New York
The couch is fun!! All plans for our afternoon hike just got thrown to the wayside as well when a big thunderstorm rolled through and the Doppler doesn’t look like it’s going to clear up at all.
Guess I’ll have to stay glued to the couch!
Oh wait, Faith just called and she’s coming to watch with me – so I’ll get in 10 minutes of walking to meet her halfway!
Jenny @ Fitness Health and Food says
I so miss those shows! watch some for me 🙂
I consider our WF disneyland as well, too much fun for my wallet’s good! 😛
Lisa Fine says
I love days like that…when you don’t have much you really need to do, so you can just do the things you love. Today’s one of those kind of days for me, too.
I love 30 Rock! I’m going through all of them now on Netflix, and I’m still on season one. Such a funny show.
Michelle says
Hoping Disneyland will upon up near me soon 😉 Love that store..
Liv @ The Salty n' Sweet says
Love Gossip Girl and SYTYCD! SYTYCD always reminds me of summer 🙂
I think I’ll be spending most of my afternoon on the couch too. Way too tired to move…
Brittany @ Eating Bird Food says
I want to come check out the new Whole Foods soon. It looks amazing.
Laura (On the Threshold of Greatness) says
“The couch is fun!” – I bet it is after how hard you’ve been working! Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!
I’m so jealous of that Whole Foods, btw. We need one in Fredericksburg!
Emily @ One Sweet Vegan says
I’ve never seen any of your favorite shows! What am I missing out on!? 🙂
melissa says
I’m originally from Atlanta but now live in Alaska… all I want right now is a good heavy summer thunderstorm.
It rains here but not like the south in the summer. I miss that.
Michelle (The Runner's Plate) says
Me too!!
I grew up in Minnesota, moved to Alaska 4 years ago, and desperately miss a good rain storm/thunder storm!
Gina @ Running to the Kitchen says
That’s a pretty good line up of TV shows. My husband can’t understand for the life of him how I can like house hunters so much but I love that show! And miss it now that we cancelled our cable 🙁
Michelle (The Runner's Plate) says
You can watch some episodes on Hulu. That’s what I’ve been doing!
Namaste Gurl says
Relaxing days are always the best– plus, you deserve it! You guys have worked so hard you should get a million rest days 🙂
I could definitely sit on the couch watching Sex and the city re-runs for HOURS– no joke 🙂 need to get into Gossip Girl, never seen!
Chloe (South Beach Girl) says
I just started watching SYTYCD this season and am totally hooked – the dancers are ALL amazing! As is Whole Foods, but also super spendy. I would have a hard time not going hog wild every time I stepped foot in that store 🙂
Kate (What Kate is Cooking) says
I love House Hunters! My favorite show recently is Lockup on MSNBC- it is so addicting!
Allie (Live Laugh Eat) says
We share favorite shows! I need to get into The Office and 30 Rock…couldn’t start from the very very beginning when I was busy at school.
I model my shorts for you tomorrow to help with shorts decisions next week!
Holly @ The Runny Egg says
Out of that whole list, the only show I have seen is House Hunters!
Mary @ Bites and Bliss says
Have you heard they’re replacing Steve Carell with Ashton Kutcher?! He’s a funny guy but I’m not sure how well he’ll stand up with that part…
KathEats says
Are you SURE!?
Liz says
Aston Kutcher is replacing Charlie Sheen in Two and a Half Men.. not Steve Carell. I don’t think they have named a replacement for Steve Carell yet.
Alaina says
Ashton Kutcher is replacing Charlie Sheen on Two and a Half Men
Khushboo says
I heard that too but I can’t imagine Ashton being as great in the role- he’s too nice!
The Teenage Taste says
Oh I hate it when I get all pumped up for shopping and then plans change. Glad you’re taking it well though. I know I need to get some housework done. I hate housework! 😛
Have a great night!
Emily @ Life on Food says
I just started watching Glee. A friend of my reccomended it for running. It’s a great distraction while running on the treadmill let me tell you. An hour flies by. Anyway, I am officially obsessed.
Christine says
I just finished Season 3 of GG- can’t wait until Season 4 is out so I can see what happened to Chuck!
Can I B U 2day says
SYTYCD is junk food for the mind. Enjoy and eat up!
Simply Life says
okay, we clearly don’t have a TV (but watch a lot of shows on Hulu)- but I haven’t heard of this show – what is it? Now i”m intrigued!
KathEats says
It’s basically a big dance competition. Really fun to watch and SO much talent!
Kristin @ STUFT Mama says
Love, love, love Gossip Girl!! I still have a couple episodes I haven’t seen yet on my DVR. I have 1 1/2 year old twins, so I have to save my favorite show for when I can give it my full attention, which is hardly ever (that’s why they’re still on there). ha! Maybe tonight????? Have fun watching SYTYCD!!!!!!
kaila @ healthy helper! says
Its so funny that you don’t like maytag blue….thats the ONLY bleu cheese I will actually eat! LOL! I think its so mild and creamy!
Today has kind of turned into a lazy day for me too…..they are SO nice every once in a while!
KathEats says
It’s too ….bitter? Sour? I like it creamy sour SWEET!
katie @KatieDid says
such a relaxing day, soak it in!!
Jennifer says
Haha, just left “Wayside House” where Louise May Alcott & Nathaniel Hawthrone lived when I read this post! Now blog-reading in the back of the car.
KathEats says
Haha – how cool!!
Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin says
WF is more exciting than clothes shopping anyways. 😉
Enjoy your lazy afternoon!
Molly @ RDexposed says
How can one not love The Office (with Michael Scott)? I never get sick of seeing Michael hitting Merideth with his car. Does that make me a bad person?
Maria @ Beautiful Busy Bee says
I love 30 rock!! Your lunch looks delicious, I need to start making my lunches less boorish!
Monika @ Powered by Paprika says
I love 30 Rock and Gossip Girl– Have you ever watched True Blood??
It’s also very addicting!
KathEats says
I have not..
Robyn @ Blueberries and Oats says
Ok I’m a little embarrassed that I had to Google SYTYCD to see what it was…>.>
KathEats says
I didn’t know what it was until last year – and it was on Season 7!
Lauren says
So jealous that you have a WF near your house! the closest one for me is across the border 🙁 I’m currently eating a HUGH jass salad right now (hilarious). Soy milk eh? I’ve never tried it!! I probs should…it whats better the vanilla, choco, or plain?
KathEats says
Vanilla – definitely
Justeen @ Blissful Baking says
I love how you refer to Whole Foods as Disneyland haha!
Jess @ atasteofconfidence says
SYTYCD is so good!
Gretchen @ foreverfittogether says
I love those shows on HGTV as well! I had to peel myself off my couch this morning after watching House Hunters for awhile! Once I start, I have to see which one they pick! Enjoy your walk 🙂
staceyhealthylife says
Love the salad! You deserve some serious tv watching couch resting that’s for sure.
Averie @ Love Veggies and Yoga says
We don’t get along anymore. (kidding!)
You don’t have one single episode of anything from Bravo on your list?!!!
Real House Wives
Millionaire Matchmaker
Million Dollar Listing
And nothing from E!
Kardashians
Kendra
Ok so I am showing my true colors and love for mindless + reality tv…after the google reader is cleared out, and life is lived, nothing better than watching some real housewives argue and fret about nothing. I just love it. lol
KathEats says
Ha. I watched Real Housewives NJ once and liked it. (One summer). I think I would love that show, but I would need to start from the beginning
Ashley @ the fit academic says
I LOVE house hunters & house hunters international! They always seem to be having marathons and I can just get sucked in forever!!!
Mama Pea says
Pea Daddy and the girls are addicted to House Hunters. I just like watching them watch it and yell at the TV, “Pick number 2! Pick number 2!!!”
KathEats says
Tell them I am 100 for 100 in correct picks!!
Amanda (The Nutritionist Reviews) says
I’m with you! I love Gossip Girl too! It sucks me in.
charyll ruggeroli says
Hi Kath,
I have enjoyed your blog for a couple of years now. Better than the morning paper. 🙂
Do you have any blogging friends who write from the Colorado Springs area? I ask because my family and I are relocating there this summer and it would be nice to get some local views etc.
From the grandma in Las Vegas.
Thanks.
KathEats says
I don’t know of anyone in particular. Ashley [Edible Perspective] is in Fort Collins..
charyll ruggeroli says
Thanks.
Joanna @ braverealworld says
Omg I am addicted to Property Virgins. I have a secret wish to be on the show! Lol. I love Sandra.
Have you watched Modern Family? That’s the show I’m starting next at the advice of many friends.
I think you totally deserve some couch time after all the hard work y’all have done recently.
KathEats says
I love Sandra too! I haven’t seen Modern Family..
Tracy says
Oh you MUST watch Modern Family!! I think it’s the funniest show on TV right now!
Charise says
We started watching the first season recently on the recommendation of many friends, too – if you like The Office, you will definitely like the type of humor in Modern Family, Kath!
Cait @ Beyond Bananas says
House Hunters and Property Virgins are two of my favorites too! I spent a good deal of today watching HGTV!
Love how you referred to Whole foods as Disney!
Bethley says
Ha! I just shopped at Disney, too!. I had a gig this afternoon and was soooooo excited when I saw it was across from a Whole Foods. I think we have the same list of shows. I would second the Modern Family recommendation. The pilot is awesome. Here’s to rising bread!
Melissa @ Journey to Marvelous says
I don’t watch much HGTV or DIY…but all of the rest of those shows are on my list! You deserve a day on the couch…enjoy it!
Jennie says
Please watch Modern Family. It is the funniest show ever!!
lynn @ the actor's diet says
have you ever watched “man men?” it’s my favorite show on tv now…well, if it was on…
Karen says
That is the BEST television show…just made my way through all four seasons! Such a high quality production, huh? I heard season five was being delayed for contract negotiation reasons though.
Laura Jane @ Recovering Chocoholic says
I’ve never watched SYTYCD – I actually had to google to see what it was! I love HGTV – I enjoy House Hunters and Property Virgins. My favorite show on there is Designed to Sell. They used to have show called Mission: Organization, which I LOVED. I’m so sad that it’s not on anymore. I also watch Bones but that’s about all I watch.
Angel7 says
I think I actually like shopping at a health food/grocery store more than a clothing store anymore. Nowadays, for me and my family, it is all about health and wellness! Like the old saying goes… We are what we eat!
The Office is hilarious! Steve Carell cracks me up! He can keep a straight face while saying something that is sooo hysterical.

Noya - gluttonandstudent says
SYTYCD is so great! One of my friend’s friends actually made it on the show this season!
I am a HUGE “30 Rock” fan, as well. A loyal “follower” since 2006… haha.
Jessica @ The Process of Healing says
Homemade croutons are the BEST!
Katelyn @ Chef Katelyn says
Hahaha disneyland 😉 Seriously though, being in WF is like being in a candy shop!!
Hannah says
I’ve only ever watched one season of SYTYCD – silly me!
Khushboo says
Haha so true- Whole Foods is the grown-up equivalent of Disney Land. I know that’s where my dreams come true 😉
Brittany says
How I Met Your Mother. Hands down my favorite show ever. Totally worth becoming addicted to.
Annette @ EnjoyYourHealthyLife says
You should watch Drop Dead Diva :hilarious, captivating, and super fun! 3rd season starts this weekend!
C says
I LOVE Whole Foods. We have one near my job so I often go there at lunch time. I always spend way more than I intended to. BTW, I love your blog. The food pics just make me want to stay on the healthy track. Keep up the good work and continued success with the bakery.
Célèste says
My friend Tabari was featured in an episode of Property Virgins. I never saw it… 😮 I wonder if you have.
