WIAW 11/28: Stuffing and Stuff

Posted by Lauren

I’m terrible about following the proper WIAW rules.

Nothing I do is comprehensive, or chronological for that matter. I randomly take photos from my phone and use WIAW as a place to dump the camera roll. Whoops! Compromise: I’ll limit myself to one food photo per day:

Sunday

I spent 5 hours at Starbucks first thing Sunday morning. I ordered my favorite spinach & egg wrap (I especially love the crunchy, toasted ends of each wrap!). I drank plain coffee and got a free refill while doing work-work, planning my 2013 race schedule, and compulsively updating my Fantasy Football app.

I won my matchup this week, in case you were curious…8-4 record, 2 of 12 in league!

Monday

I started out my Monday morning with a big bowl of protein oats, then had turkey chili for lunch, snacked on 2 nutrigrain bars and an apple throughout the day, and heated up leftover turkey/veggies for dinner. I picked up frozen yogurt on my way to Kyle’s and it was so. darn. GOOD! Pistachio, pumpkin, and white chocolate macadamia nut froyo in that cup up there!!

Tuesday

Tuesday night I went to my moms house to make special cupcakes for an upcoming product launch at work (more on that soon!). I was ecstatic to see more leftover creole stuffing. Jordan asked for more info, so here’s the story: last year our mom’s fiance David declared that he was making stuffing for Thanksgiving. He bought a million ingredients and worked for hours to produce All Recipes’ Creole Cornbread Stuffing.

I remember the first bite…. it was spicy and sweet and crumbly and gooey. I fell in love with that stuffing. Really, it’s the best stuffing I’ve ever ever ever had. From now until the end of time, I want my Thanksgiving table to have a bowl of this stuffing. It’s fairly time intensive and requires a lot of ingredients (eggs, buttermilk, butter – the healthy stuff), but it’s 100% worth it.

Question: What’s your favorite Thanksgiving dish? Pick ONE!
