Tofu Fingers and Cruise Ins

The motivation continued this morning as I did my new Jillian Michaels Banish Fat and Boost Metabolism that I bought yesterday and then did my Chady bicep and tricep workout. I felt great and I am so happy that I am enjoying my workouts again. Following my workout session I had my usual oats with PB except I was out of bananas so I stirred in 1/2 a cup of blueberries-what a nice change. Utterly delicious as Martha would say lol.

I did my yardwork duties of picking up pine cones,weeding the hostas and I trimmed up a bush that had gone crazy.Then we took puppy-doo for a walk-It was a gorgeous day-77 degrees and sunny- no humidity.

For dinner:

TOFU FINGERS! So yummy-I drained and pressed some firm tofu and cut into sticks. I marinated for 4 hours in a blend of GOYA Mojo marinade,Kikkoman and a dash of liquid smoke. I roasted on a pan with a thin layer of olive oil at 400 degrees for 20 minutes,flipped and did 10 minutes more. Crunchy and perfect. I served with a quinoa creation from last nights dinner and some salad with vegan ranch(both recipes coming soon!).

Heaven on a plate. I asked Ryan if it was weird that I was sad when I finished eating dinner because it was so good and he said DEFINITELY. LOL.

Best part of the day-Friday night Cruise in! It is rare that it so nice and SUCH a good turn out. Here are some of our favorite rides from the night:


Rat rod with a party trunk-epic!


Twin Chevy pickups in candy colors.


Buick representin'! We are big Buick fans!


Ryan's fave.


All its credentials! It actually  had these on all the windows-very impressive!


My favorite muscle car-the Roadrunner! Meep Meep!


So now it is time to kick back and relax! Season 4 of the Hills from Netflix is calling my name...
