It’s been one of those weeks.
I’m not really sure what day it is…Β
I started the week in San Diego, now I’m in Vegas, and I’m driving back to San Diego tonight. Β What’s more confusing is that this weekend in San Diego it POURED down rain. Β I thought it wasn’t supposed to rain in paradise?! Β (Actually this is a good thing since California is having a drought.)
It was also Pride weekend, so I watched the wet hot mess from a bar.
What’s even funnier is that when we got to Vegas it was raining. Β We took advantage of a break in the clouds for an afternoon walk.
The sky is so pretty in the dessert after a storm!
Needless to say, it’s an interestingΒ WIAW. Β Check it out and then link up withΒ JennΒ and then check out everyone else’s delicious eats!
Breakfast:
I had theΒ usual morning cocktailΒ andΒ morning sludge.
Breakfast was a little #yolkpornΒ βͺaction on top of an open faced BLT and smashed avocado. Β And a side of cantaloupe – they’re so sweet right now!
Lunch:
We spent the day working on getting the last of the stuff out of Vegas’ house in Vegas. Β With everything being packed awayΒ we had to resort to fast food lunch. Β I was actually pleasantly surprised by my grilled chicken salad from Wendy’s!
The chicken was a bit salty, but the lettuce was fresh and the blue cheese and strawberries were good.
Snack:
There were nuts, a Quest bar, and a beer (or two… or three…) but I didn’t stop for pics. Β Vegas was working me like a slave driver. π
Dinner:
Sometimes dinner isΒ wine, popcorn, and M&Ms at the move theater after a day of work. Β I did Vegas a solid and agreed to go see Ant-Man.
(It was actually good… but don’t tell her I just admitted that.)

Did you see Ant Man?
What is your fast food go-to in a pinch?Β
I think it’s extremely unlikely I’ll see Antman, especially since my spouse won’t make me :-). Only because he has no idea what it is, I’m sure.
#YolkPorn is my FAVORITE hashtag!!! The combo with cantaloupe sounds so interesting, now I want to try it!
If it’s any consolation, I never have any idea what day it is! And I would kill for some rain right about now. It’s been over 98 degrees constantly since I arrived in Italy and I’m DYING.
Oy… you should come to San Diego! It’s 75. Every day.
oh Im so so so with tara and would DO ANYTHING fer a good rain as my craptastic a/c is threatening to quit
wait
did I make this all about me? π
A crappy A/C is a good reason to make it about you! I couldn’t believe that the house we moved into had no heat or air… but I couldn’t do that back home!
That breakfast is perfect!
So weird about all the rain! (But good for California, for sure!) I’m liking the looks of your dinner π
We were supposed to get that rain and it never came. I was so disappointed.
Looks like we’ll have LOTS of chances this summer. Crazy El Nino!
Does Jimmy John’s count as fast food? I sometimes get that when I can’t leave the office for lunch and didn’t bring anything.
Jimmy John’s is a little too good to be fast food. LOL! Kidding… wish we had them here!
Chipotle is our favorite fast food in a pinch. But that salad from Wendy’s does actually look good! M&Ms, popcorn, and wine for dinner sound like a much needed reward after a day of hard work!
Can you send some of that rain about 5 hours North? It’s been so hot & gross here….then the AC crashed. I definitely agree that wine and popcorn can count as dinner once in awhile!
ooh ‘i love a good runny yolk! yum yum yum. I want some now, actually.
and yes, we’re adults – popcorn (or ice cream, fill in the blank) for dinner sometimes is exactly what we need π
It’s the best part of being a grown up!
Wow Wendy’s… sometimes ya just never know with fast food salads.
WOW that is a lot of rain! It looks a bit like Buenos Aires in a storm, everything stops. No buses, no cabs, nothing. At it’s a 100% legit excuse for being late for work π
I could do with one of those dinners today… I know what you mean! Hope your confusion sorts out soon.
It was crazy – especially since people here never see rain. They were fascinated. π
I didn’t even know it could rain in Vegas.My hubs was there last week for poker and it was like 110 degrees. It’s rained a ton here in DC this summer so I don’t have to water my plants π
I heard the East coast is getting pummeled! People back home are posting constant flooding pics. Yuck!
Sometimes you just need M&Ms, Popcorn, and wine. π
Great eats:) I haven’t seen ant man..I have to say I’ve heard a lot of mixed reviews about it. Glad to hear you liked itβ¦And jealous of your theater food! I love movie popcorn…
It isn’t going to win an Oscar, but it was a really cute movie!
If I have a Starbucks near, I’ll get their protein box, if not, Subway all the way!
Wendy’s salads aren’t too bad! One of my go-to fast food options if I’m not feeling a burger or something more traditional fast food-ish.
#yolkporn is growing on me. Not the hashtag but the actual runny yolks. I used to have a huge celeb crush on Paul Rudd when he was in Clueless. He would be my main reason for wanting to see Antman. But I doubt I’ll see it in the theatre. Probably gonna wait for it to be released on Netflix.
It was a good theatre show just because you can see it in 3-D, but it’ll be good on Netflix too. Why are movies SO expensive?!
Sounds like to dominated the move! That breakfast looks awesome…minus the cantaloupe. I just can’t get into melon. I’ve always viewed it as filler fruit, mostly because fruit salads are always 90% honeydew + cantaloupe and 10% good fruit.
The last movie I saw in a theater was Black Swan. I kid you not. I don’t like to spend the money. And honestly, movie previews rarely catch my attention. I’m more enticed by a TV series than a movie.
My fast food go-to is always Subway. My lame meal of choice is the foot long veggie sub. No meat. No cheese. It’s basically a hefty tomato sandwich with lettuce, black olives, banana peppers, pickles, and spicy mustard. On wheat. YUM.
Sounds like “you” dominated the move… I hate that I can’t edit a post.
That shit drives me nuts too!
I’m really not a movie person either. I did see Black Swan in theaters. And Les Mis. I think the most recent was Wild with Vegas. I hated it.
I heart avocados so much and I could eat eggs everyday and literally do. The yolk is seriously my favorite part. π Glad California finally got some rain – it’s been a heck of a drought they’ve been experiencing over there! Have a great weekend Laura! -Iva
San Diego and Vegas. Best time of my life.
Come back. Now.
