pleasantville

This adorable little town is home to my favorite "French" cafe, Jean Jacques. I've visited France twice because I hosted a French exchange student in high school and have needed to visit one of my very best friends since then, and this is not exactly like the ones there at all, but I love the ambiance and the food is delicious. Anyway, I had been planning on going there during my lunch break all week and today seemed like the perfect day. It's not a great picture but doesn't everything look completely picturesque outside those windows... My rushing day began with a PBJ sammie. I added flax too for extra staying power, it was a nice addition Em :). Unfortunately it only lasted me another four hours and I couldn't eat lunch for another 6 hours. Needless to say, I was starving! I drove as fast as I could to Jean Jacques and was elated that there wasn't a line. I ordered one of the special's of the day, the Egyptian Wrap: hummus, tsatziki, lettuce, tomato, onions, and sprouts in a spinach wrap! Wow! I'm still disappointed that I scarfed it down so fast, this was definitely one of those lunches that deserved to be savored. On the ride back to work I ate an apple to end a perfectly pleasant meal ;). I ended staying an hour late at work since the pharmacy was so busy and then ran to the dentist for a checkup. Good news is my dentist was impressed with how well I've been taking care of my teeth. Bad news is I'm going to need to get my wisdom teeth pulled soon. No fun :(Once again, when the time came to eat I was more than ready. I made a salad and pasta dish: linguine, diced tomatoes, broccoli & cauliflower, olive oil, basil and garlic. And now I'm about to finish my crazy day with a fun night out. The boy's coming down to visit again. Oh, and I have an equally as fun day off to look forward to tomorrow, get excited! Thanks for the suggestions earlier, hope everyone has a good night!
