It has been a beautiful weekend in Denver, I love it when the weather cooperates with time out of work!
Saturday started with a plate of protein. A faux fried egg(real egg, just not really fried) and some bacon (real bacon, not turkey, but no nitrates etc).
After breakfast I went shopping with my friend Cassidy. I came away with a new pair of puma shoes and a ton of puma socks. I LOVE puma socks. I will search through all my clean socks to find my puma socks to wear for a workout. I hope these are as awesome as the ones I already have!
After we finished shopping, we decided to grab a quick bite. We tried to go to one of our usual places but were thwarted by a less than ideal parking situation. So instead we ended up at Tony’s Market. I have been eyeing this place for ages now and haven’t had an excuse to go until now.
I ended up ordering the grilled portabello sandwich that had sweet peppers, basil pesto, parmesan cheese, artichoke hearts and spinach on ciabatta. I opted for a side salad instead of chips.
I didn’t have my camera so my droid took the pictures. The droid is probably better than my first digital camera, but my Nikon has spoiled me…
I was tempted by the strawberries at Tony’s and so I had to bring a bunch home with me. And this is what inspired my “dinner.” I should clarify that I’m not good at eating meals when Dan’s out of town. So I decided to take a page out of my mom’s book and have strawberry shortcake for dinner. But instead of shortcake, I had angel food cake. How I love the light airy taste of the angel food cake.
Also on Saturday I finally started running again! After the shopping trip with Cassidy I decided that I wanted to get a good workout in. I started running and it felt easy. My lungs were my limiting factor not my legs. Of course my legs are super sore now!
Do you ever have dessert for dinner?

I eat strawberry shortcake for dinner, too! (my mom started this tradition for me) We tend to make a biscuit-y shortcake, then cover with strawberries, a little brown sugar, and milk. I figure it's carbs, protein, and fruit--not a terribly unbalanced meal.
Some of my housemates in college thought this was crazy...until they tried it!
That sandwich looks amazing!
I love going to Dairy Queen to get a blizzard or sundae for dinner. My husband doesn't "allow" it (he is a rule follower, but I am not) so I do it when he is not around.
I love the look of puma shoes and have been looking for a pair for a while.
Yup, I had blueberry pancakes for dinner a few weeks ago when I was experimenting with new recipes. Totally worth it!
Food that day looks so good. How exactly did you faux fry the egg??
