What I Ate Wednesday: New Years Eve Edition!

2 Jan

My apologies for posting so late! Today was my first day back at work & I’m still getting over my flu-like cold. Can’t wait to be completely better!! Silly cold keeps lingering…but let’s move on :)

My WIAW is gonna be a recap of my New Years Eve eats! Since I was still pretty sick, my day of food was kinda random – but still full of some good stuff!!

BLC made me some Trader Joe’s pumpkin muffins – delish!

I enjoyed 2 muffins with some ((real)) butter!

The muffins & a lemon Chobani made up my breakfast. I gotta say…lemon is not my favorite flavor of Chobani. It’s just okay IMHO.

Around lunch time my sick self convinced BLC to take me to McDonalds for a sundae.

With extra hot fudge. The cure for any illness :)

A little bit later I was craving chips and salsa – so that’s what I had! (I may or may not have had triple this amount but ate most of it before I remembered to take a picture…oops)

At this point of the day, I was still in my pajamas so BLC & I decided to keep it low-key for NYE. We rented Ted & Savages (both were pretty good) on demand and reheated leftovers my mom had made for me while we were in Philadelphia.

I had two giant bowls of matzo ball soup – AKA Jewish Penicillin. My mom literally makes this every time I get sick. Soooo good. If you don’t know, it is basically chicken noodle soup minus the chicken and plus matzo balls (a type of fluffy dumpling). My mom makes the best matzo ball soup. Trust.

While BLC & I laid around and watched movies,

We drank wine &

Ate cheese with crackers. I always buy this cheese for parties. It is a little different but super tasty! Plus, goat cheese is my jam.

& then I passed out before the clock struck midnight. I am a party animal!

What did you eat on NYE?!

    I had delicious wings on NYE! I love wings! :) I was a little sick and didn’t do much at all either. I kinda prefer it that way tho.

    Gotta love Matzo ball soup! We are not Jewish but my mom makes it and I swear a hide any leftovers in the freezer for when I am sick or feeling down. It just makes the day so much better!

    I love that blueberry goat cheese! Different but very good! Sorry you’ve been under the weather. My husband and son got the flu NYE at 10:30 while we had a house full of guests. Fun stuff!

    [...] Healthy Life Happy Wife‘s Alex shared her New Year’s Eve eats. She claimed her meals and snacks were random because she was sick, but I still think everything looked delicious, especially the matzo ball soup (perfect sick food!). I’m really intrigued by the Trader Joe’s blueberry vanilla chevre she had–as an avid goat cheese lover, that’s definitely something I’m going to have to try. [...]
