The morning started with the last bagel. I know this isn’t a habit I should get into, but I enjoyed the daily bagel this week!

I also brought some clementines to snack on. I love these as a snack. They take awhile to open, don’t pack many calories (20-30ish) and they are sweet. Dan finds them to be “not worth it” for all of those reasons. More for me this way!

Lunch was leftover chicken from the night before. I know I said that I was sick of chicken breasts, but is it just me or do they taste different when they come from a whole roast chicken?

I also had some white chocolate coconut for dessert.

The real story of the day was not photographed. A cinnamon roll and chex mix. I thought I’d bring the chex mix to work so it wouldn’t be at home tempting me. Why! Oh Why! Did I think it was a good idea? At least there won’t be chex mix tempting me this weekend. I did have a single serve pack of Lay’s that I did photograph.

After work I stopped by Barnes and Nobles to use the gift cards Dan’s parents gave us for Christmas. I also had a few hours to kill before we were meeting our friends Amy and Jordan for dinner.

Dan had given me his wish list, but I totally struck out. I did find out that Jamie Oliver (The Naked Chef) has an Italian cookbook

I then went downstairs to look through the photo geek books. I get a bit nervous before buying these types of books. What if I get the wrong one? I had picked out my books (Close up and Macro photography
I did buy one book at the store. It was half price and was the same price online. Have any of you read “Born Round
We went to a new restaurant (for us) D’Corazon, a Mexican restaurant in LoDo Denver. It’s fun to walk to restaurants. I had called to make a reservation Thursday and was told that I don’t need one but when I got there it was packed! I found my way to the bar and met some nice people and sampled the house margarita(s).

Amy, Jordan and Dan showed up right after we got a table and got ready to order food. Amy recommended the fajita, but my favorite food is tamales so I ordered the tamale plate. I need to remember that I like my old roomates tamales, not restaurant tamales. It was covered in so much stuff. I ate maybe half before I was uber full.

The fajita was delicious though (I stole a bite of dan’s). We are going to Mexico in just more than a month. Yay! I’m so excited for 5 days of sitting by the beach(under an umbrella) and drinking margaritas.
Where is your next trip going to be? Do you relax on vacation or adventure?
