Day 18: Saturday, April 9th

We went to IHOP again! I looove their french toast.

I get the strawberries and banana french toast option.


I substituted the sausage/bacon with red skinned potatoes, but it turns out to be too much potato because of the hash browns.


For dinner, we went to In-N-Out where we finally tried the grilled cheese sandwich. I also got animal style fries and a chocolate milkshake. To me, the grilled cheese "burger" is fine without the meat! :)

Day 17: Friday, April 8th

This day we went to school to study with Jenna and her brother. Armando and I stopped at his favorite restaurant, Veggie Grill.

I ordered the Grilled Quinoa + Veg Burger with avocado and Yukon Gold fries. I didn't dislike the burger, but there was something I didn't really enjoy as much. I think it was either the cheese or the pickled onions. :/ 

Since we were studying, I also got a caramel macchiato from Starbucks and later on in the evening, I got a chocolate marble bread slice from Starbucks.

Day 16: Thursday, April 7th

Okay, so I tried to copy my mom's beans, eggs, and serrano chili peppers scramble, but it was a total fail. Canned beans are not the ones to use. It was gross!


Armando and I went to Red Robin for the first time since we stopped eating meat.

We ordered mozzarella sticks and deep-fried zucchinis. Hehe peep his UCI sweater. :)


Armando took this picture and I liked it better lol


I got mac and cheese and garlic fries. To be honest, the mac and cheese was alright, but I could live without it. The garlic fries were sooooooo flippin' good!!

I prepared strawberries with greek yogurt and some seeds for breakfast :)



We went to a welcome event and we got dinner :) I had a veggie sandwich, fruit, pasta, and salad. Oh and that cookie! (I'm labeling this "restaurants" because I'm sure they had it catered from one lol

Day 13: Monday, April 4th

Today, so far, we had lunch at the Au Bon Pain Cafe Bakery at UCI. I ordered the Chipotle Black Bean Burger with Avocado on ciabatta bread. It also had caramelized onions and tomatoes. 

I also got iced hazelnut coffee. 

The burger also had caramelized onions and tomatoes. 

[April 8th Update]
We ended up going to David's house for dinner (they had planned it beforehand).

Jenna picked up some dip from Albertson's so we munched on that before dinner was ready. No picture :(

Brenda found this delicious recipe for mushroom "meatballs" - I loveeed it. Armando is not a big fan (or at all, actually) of mushrooms so I don't think he enjoyed them as much as I did. They also made spaghetti and mozzarella sticks. It cheese was too melted, but the mozzarella sticks were still delish.
Um, this may not be the prettiest picture, but yeahhh.
