yumminess illustrated

this is random.

tonight i was over arlington. i never go 'south' very much anymore, which is so weird to me because my first go around in dfw i never came 'north.' anyway. i was near whole foods at supper time, so i thought i'd stop and get a salad to take home.

the first thing i saw when i walked in was the display of oranges. not just ANY oranges, but oranges peeled and sliced for you already. i LOVE fresh oranges, but i HATE peeling them. oddly, the whole peeling part grosses me out so much that i can't eat the orange once it is ready. because i am bored/boring, i decided to take a picture of the amazingness that accompanied my dinner and will find a place in my lunch box tomorrow . . .

it's the little things like this that make me forget that i still have 6 whole weeks until summer.

also, i discovered a new brand of frozen pizzas. i'm pretty good at eating healthy during the weeks i make an effort to, but frozen pizzas are my downfall. i like the 'high dollar' california pizza kitchen goodness that line the freezers at target, but i also have no problem shelling out my 97 cents for a good ol' totinio's cheese pizza. i try to stick to the lean cuisine 'healthy' versions, but they really don't cut it. BUT. PEOPLE. i've found the solution: Life Choices and Living Right Foods. (yeah, i know. kind of a youth group devotional sounding name.)
i got their mini-cheese pizzas, which come 4 in a box. i don't think i will go back to eating the lean cuisine or weight watchers pizzas when i need my fix. these are SO yummy. AND healthy. i counted up the ww points and the entire mini-pizza is only 5! fantastic. also . . . absolutely no preservatives, which is REALLY hard to find in the frozen food aisle. next week, i'm going to check out their chicken strips . . .

wow. i'm pretty embarrassed i just wrote an entire blog about oranges and pizza.
