This was part of my lunch today.. Avocado Salad Roll. It’s avocado and fresh veggies wrapped in tapioca paper. I’m going to try to make this at home 
It was so tasty and fresh!
Thanks Melissa and Monica for tagging me!
Here’s 5 things about me that you probably didn’t know:
1. My emotions are plain weird. I will cry at a good commercial and appear completely emotionless when someone tells me good news. Just trust me- weird.2. When I was 11-years-old, I convinced my mom that we needed a farm by placing a baby goat in her arms. Needless to say, she fell in love. The one goat turned into 3 goats, 2 pigs, 20 chickens, 30 ducks, 2 lambs, 4 geese, 2 turkeys, 8 cats, 3 dogs, 1 horse… Yes, I am just that persuasive!
3. A few years ago (maybe 5?), my family served as a host family for an exchange student from Germany. Now that I think back on it, it was en enriching, fun experience. But at the time it was tough to be 14 and have all of the attention on a girl who is 2 years older and from another country! It had its hard moments. Just this week she found me on Facebook and she’s engaged!
4. I am a total maniac on the road. I haven’t lived in NYC since I was little, but I somehow inherited the traits of a very skilled New York City driver! “You don’t want to let me in front of you? Oh yeah? WATCH THIS!” (I win!) I am very familiar with my horn and how to use it.
5. In December I will graduate with my bachelors in public relations. I love communicating with people, so my degree suits me well. But my other passion is health and fitness, so my dream is to one day combine the two. This is where my passion for Whole Foods might one day come in! (Do you hear me, WF?!)
From what I’ve seen on the other blogs, everyone else has already been tagged! If you haven’t, consider yourself it!
p.s.- I hit a car today. Unbelievably neither car was hurt. It wasn’t me being distracted this time, it was my brakes. Need to get some new ones…. (If you remember, I got in a very costly accident when I ran into the back of a Chevy Tahoe less than a year ago.)
p.s.s.- On my Challenge, I decided to press restart on my eating. Moving on! Now I’ve sketched out 21 days on my calendar. Other than Fathers Day and a planned trip to Ruths Chris and a surprise restaurant I’m taking David to, I have no reason to get off plan! And…I got my exercise plan together. Here is it:
- 30 min Cardio, 4/week
- 20 min Pilates, 2/week
- 25 min Strength, 3/week
- 8-min abs video, 1/week
Crazy! I can do it. This week is a “do my best” because I’m starting halfway through, but come Monday, that’s it. It will rock!
The apartment I’m looking at has cherry wood floors and peach/tan/yellow walls. I have this nice comfy couch with teal fabric that’s just not my taste. I tried a slipcover. I’m thinking my colors will be chocolate brown with orange, yellow, white and black furniture. What do you think?
This is what I get to sleep with tonight!

that wrap—the myriad colors–is so beautiful.
I swear Id eat great ALL THE TIME if I had someone to slice and chop and whip up healthy creations for me.

The wrap looks really yummy! I’m with Carla. Wish I had someone who can pre-make all my healthy meals for me.
I like the brown covering. Add RED pillows for a more dramatic pop!
I’m liking the brown colours. And the wrap looks very tasty!
that wrap looks amazing! now where is my lunch…
That wrap has me drooling. 25 minutes until lunchtime!
Yum!! that wrap looks amazing. I can just taste it. I bet that would be easy to make at home wrapped up in some butter lettuce. Definitely worth a try
I love those summer roll wrap things! I wish grocery stores sold more of those kind of items…and less prepared foods like corndogs and fried chicken and potato salads. I mean it seemed like for a while everyone was getting into the little sushi depts. in the produce section, but now it’s kind of died down? Annoying, because those light asian wraps are as you said “so light” and refreshing….and perfect for summer! Oh and I love chocolate brown for furniture!
Umm… Excuse me loverbug, but that photograph should be on the cover of a MAGAZINE! It’s amazing! What camera do you use/which setting?! IT’S SO GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!
Aaaand I hope today rocks for YOU too! (That was so sweet, by the way!)
pce.
I loved your facts
, you are fun!
I need to try one of those avocado rolls. I’ve made such rolls before, but didn’t think about adding avocados…
Hey! Just letting you know I changed the name and URL of my blog! Here’s the new address:

The wrap looks SO awesome! I’d never heard of tapioca paper, very intriguing!
Your dog is ADORABLE!! And good for you for getting your schedule in order. I completely fall apart if I don’t have my routine.
I LOVE these pics of Sabrina
The wrap is definitely a feast for my eyes
.
Glad to see someone else is getting back into a more structured fitness routine. We can do it!
The wrap looks delicious. I’m still a little nervous about avocado, but I’m working on it.
I cry at everything too. Can’t help it, thats just how it is.
That is really funny that you talked your mom into a farm. I love animals! How fun.
I am a sissy on the road. You’d totally have my ass, lol.
Congrats on the pending graduation!!!! YAY!!!
The new apartment sounds really pretty. When will you know if you are moving in?
Carla- Amen! Maybe I’ll hire someone to cut all my veggies
Maggie- I wanted red! That was my plan… but the color of the walls is a tan/peach/yellow.. not in the same groove as the red
Dani- Good idea! Dipped in some HFCS sauce
Glidingcalm- I do wish they’d sell more of this type of food! I’d have this over fried any day.
Julz- Thanks! I have a Canon PowerShot SD750. It is the BEST. The first pic was taken with the digital macro setting. Up close!
Alice- Yay! The avocado gives it a great taste and texture.
Jenn- You’re so funny! I should know in… umm… 1 hour? I’ll keep everyone posted! I’m excited!
the wrap! I eat that all the time off the school market stand…its funny to see someone else take a picture of my exact lunch halfway across the nation! lol
