Late this morning, we had enough of cleaning and decided it was time to brave the rain and head out on a hike.
It was drizzling for the first 10 minutes or so, but then we got really lucky and the rain held off for the remainder of our time on the trails and we hiked under overcast skies.
(My pink Nike running top was a Christmas gift from Ryan. So soft!)
Sadie had a blast sniffing every leaf and stick as always.
We ended up hiking for right around two hours and by the time we were done, I was ready for lunch!
Lunch
Unfortunately we still haven’t made it to the grocery store, so the options were sparse, but I threw together a plate that included tuna salad, white cheddar popcorn and two Babybel light cheeses.
My lunch was severely lacking in fruits and veggies, but I wasn’t about to trust the shriveled tomatoes or zucchini in our fridge. Scary stuff.
I also snacked on more trail mix but made the mistake of eating it right out of the container rather than portioning it out into a bowl and ate a million servings.
Nuts are my weakness. (TWSS)
Off to the grocery store. I’m about to own the produce section!

We need to go to the grocery store too! Lunch today was quite random 🙂
Ugh I have to do the same thing! I got a juicer for Christmas and I used my few remaining produce products trying it out yesterday. Now I’ve literally got NOTHING and I’m dying to make more fun juices!
I swear, Sadie and Lilly are long lost sisters.
Trail mix is DANGEROUS. Especially homemade chex mix.
Love your Nike hoodie! So glad you got to go hiking in between breaks from the rain! I live in PA and it has been pouring nonstop here today! At least its not snow! ;p
The same thing with the rain happened to me today! My little brother and I went for a short run and it rained for the first few minutes and then it stopped. YAY! 😀
PS – Love the pink shirt! So cute!
CUTE Nike top–oh I love that one!!
Dude, veggies are making a comeback in everyone’s lives today, it seems…..
Nuts are my weakness too! Not only do I eat too many but then I end up with a bad stomach ache!
almonds out of the jar are dangerous. i could eat the entire thing… no matter how big!
pistachios are dangerous for me. i could eat and eat and eat them until my stomach hurts!
Handfuls of trail mix outta the jar are like slivers of cake- no matter how many you have, they never seem (feel) like a lot!
I hav a serious problem when it comes to nuts and trailmix too! I just cant help it;)
I love that Nike top! Trail mix is sooo dangerous when eaten out of the can. I can’t go near it lol.
right now cheese is my weekness.
p.s. if you have a chance take a look at a fab mitten giveaway!! It’s my first!!

I’m so jealous of those hiking trails you have around you! It would be so nice to have someplace other than a cornfield to walk around! 😉
I wish I loved nuts! (haha still TWSS!)
In my head, I LOVE them, and then I serve up a little bowl, and three or four nuts in, I can’t take ’em anymore.
So oily or something, I dunno!
I might be guilty of picking out the dried fruit bits and chocolate from the trail mix! 🙂
That’s what she said!!!!!!!! hahahhaa
made me laugh out loud 🙂
I can’t lie, I can’t control myself around almonds and walnuts either! SO GOOD!
I have the same Nike sweater! My boyfriend also got it for me 🙂
i got the same (or a very similar) Nike top except in a fuschia color. i LOVE it! it’s perfect cold weather wear.
nuts are my total weakness too! ha. i got a bunch of candied almonds in my stocking, and i can’t stop munching on them! i rarely ever buy them because i have no self control around them.
I need someone to come grocery shop at my house! I have WAY too much food and not enough time to eat it – eek! Focusing on the fresh stuff first – wish me luck!
Love the nike top – SUPER cute!
I totally didn’t know what TWSS stood for and I say that all the time! So not only am I out of the loop but pretty ditzy as well!
I was desperate to take a hike yesterday but no one in my family wanted to come along!
On another note– Julie, lately I’ve found many of your sentences quite confusing (especially the run-ons). You are a good writer, but I think you need to take the time to proofread and make sure what you are writing is user-friendly. I find myself rereading sentences just for clarity! If you don’t have time to proofread, don’t post so often. Perhaps I’m being too nitpicky because I am an editor. But, please consider my suggestion!
thanks for your input, natalie. i do proofread my posts, but will take extra time to read over longer sentences. i can see how they might be overwhelming to readers while they make total sense to me since i lived it/wrote it. thanks for the head’s up.
Haha..awesome TWSS 😉
I love the running top! I need to get some running gear, and I can’t wait to use the REI gift card I got!
I need to get to the grocery store also- the veggies are definitely MIA over here! So jealous you were able to get outside! We’ve had non-stop rain all day 🙁
Looks like a yummy lunch! Oddly enough, a tuna sammich and smartfood popcorn are one of my all-time favorite combos!
I love when you say TWSS – it’s so funny!
I wish we had hiking weather in Illinois right now. It’s so cold here!
looks like a great hike, even though it wasn’t the best weather!
don’t you just love going to the grocery store? its basically one of my hobbies. that’s probably why i always have so much food!
Don’t you worry, nuts are my weakness too!!!
Totally with you on the produce. I think my body had a freakout this morning from lack of veggies and fruits.
mmm…love those babybel light cheeses!
cute pink nike jacket!
Bahaha, your TWSS totes made me laugh out loud! Salty or sweet? 😉
Love the running top. Pink is such a happy color.
Tuna always does the trick when I haven’t been shopping in a while! 🙂
I have the same pink shirt! It’s my favorite long sleeve workout shirt!
Your new running shirt is ADORABLE! I was just looking at the same ones today while I shopped with my sister! Super cute!
I found some prepackaged nuts at the grocery store the other day – they are perfect for not over indulging on nuts! Planters “NUT-rition” wholesome nut mix. You’ll have to try them!
I got the same Nike top for Christmas from my sis! It is so soft!
I love trail mix! I used to have an open bag on my desk in college. That resulted in a less than “fit” junior year. 😛
