This and That

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a great weekend. I don't know about you but we have had a ton of rain lately (some crazy storms!!) and it has helped cool off the area a bit and I couldn't be happier. It has been high 70s over the past few days and it has been wonderful. This is my favorite type of weather. I had a great weekend and while I don't have tons of meals to show you, I do have some random bits and bobs to share. These kinds of posts can be fun so I'm excited to share some randomness with you!

First up, I do have some food to share:

This was one of the most random meals I've ever thrown together. I had some tempura cauliflower from Trader Joe's left in the freezer so I had that (sans sauce) and some refreshing watermelon on the side. It was actually really great despite being an odd combination.

One Sunday I went to late lunch with my mom and my brother at a Turkish restaurant and had the most wonderful meal!

I started with some Shepherd's salad and it was so yummy. I added some hummus to the plate when it came to the table but I had already started eating so I didn't take a pic. 

OMG you guys. I normally get falafel but I didn't want to eat fried food and have that heaviness in my tummy so I went for the veggie kebabs and you guys. Check out this feast for $12!!! It came with pickled cabbage, salad, bulgur, rice and two huge skewers of grilled veggies. It comes with eggplant, red and white onions, tomato and mushrooms (and peppers but I asked for no peppers). It was delicious and perfectly cooked. The eggplant was so tender and amazing. I am so glad I chose this!

I was out running some errands with my mom Sunday morning and we stopped at 7-Eleven for some coffee for my mom. I noticed that they had the Silk Vanilla Almond Creamer so I partook as well!! It is always so exciting to find vegan options popping up everywhere!

After trying and enjoying the almond creamer I found out there is a Hazelnut flavor and you better believe I went and got some! I like it a lot. It's not my favorite hazelnut flavor but it is really good and I'm glad I found it!

When I saw the double whammy of a hilarious meme and the cutest puppies of life I knew I had to share this here. I absolutely can not deal with this and their faces. They are too much!!! 

I mentioned that it has been raining like crazy lately but I saw the most beautiful rainbow! I was stopped at a red light (and kind of pulled over) so I snapped a super quick pic of it. I don't know about you guys but I love storms (although not driving in them) and seeing a rainbow after is the icing on the cake.

So that's all the random stuff I have to share with you today! I hope that you are all doing well, had a great weekend and have had a great start to your week. I'll see you on Friday!!
