WIAW – Week 14
23 May
First, I’d like to thank you all for your kind thoughts & congratulations on yesterday’s post! I actually met with our realtor for a few minutes today & she told me the “sale pending” sign is in the yard. 
I can’t wait to document the first-time homeowner experience & decorating ideas here on the blog!
Moving on…
Time for another installment of WIAW – What I Ate Wednesday. Be sure to stop by Jen’s blog (Peas & Crayons) to see what other bloggers are eating!
I used my usual overnight oats base (2/3 c. oats, 1/2+ c. milk, 1 tbsp. chia seeds, 1 tbsp. vanilla Greek yogurt) & added in some raspberries & peanut butter this morning. Sadly, I was a little heavy-handed with the milk last night, so this batch was a little too “liquidy.” There’s always tomorrow… 
Lunch – Fluffernutter (!!!) on whole wheat bread, chips, a black cherry Chobani, & water
Last night as I was packing my lunch, I spotted the jar of marshmallow fluff that I purchased for something I made for my Mother’s Day brunch. I knew that I needed to make a fluffernutter for lunch today! Sugar-laden? Yes. Delicious? Yes again!
The chips were sent to me to sample from The Better Chip, & so far, I’m a fan (full review to follow!).
Dinner – Baked chicken parm bites atop rotini & peach tea
Inspiration struck this evening, & I decided to spend a little extra time in the kitchen trying out a new recipe (an Erica original!). I’m always a little leery of how something will turn out when I don’t use a recipe, but these chicken parm bites were awesome. I’ll post the recipe soon!
Dessert – Ghirardelli dark chocolate sea salt square
These little squares provide just the perfect amount of sweetness after a meal!
Do you usually eat something sweet after dinner? I always do!
Super excited for the chicken parm recipe. Thar sounds right up my alley!
oh my freaking god. i want that fluffernutter like no ones business.
Fluffernutters are pretty awesome!
Just read about your exciting news–congratulations!! The house is adorable (I really liked the door, too!).
Yes, I always want something sweet after dinner. I usually go for chocolate because it’s rich, but when that’s not enough, I bring out the ice cream cartons!

Thanks Colleen! Mmm ice cream…
There is always tomorrow with the oats… and I’ve never had a fluffernutter sandwich before. Sounds kind of delightful though!
…..Something sweet after a meal? ALWAYS. always. ALWAYS!

What?! You must go get yourself some of the unhealthy deliciousness right away!
I’ve been working overnight oats back into my regular routine too now that it’s warmer. There’s raspberries in mine too! Love it!

It’s delicious!
That sea salt caramel must be a new flavor because it has yet to be included in my chocolate stash!

mmm I love fluffernutters!
My mom grew up in Connecticut and seriously LOVES fluffernutters! Apparently it’s a New England thing, because my Massachusetts born college roommate loved them too. I can’t stand marshmallows personally, so it was always so disappointing when I’d open my lunch box in elementary school and every once and awhile my mom would pack me a fluffernutter. She didn’t believe me until middle school that I hated them – I mean, how many kids hate marshmallows?

Ah I love marshmallow anything!
I love fluffer nutter sandwiches…I haven’t had one in forever!

Veggies girl! Where are your Veggies!
Don’t worry — I got some in during snack time!
I have a fluffernutter for lunch today
For me, there isn’t much more sugar in fluff than typical jam so I don’t feel bad eating it. And yes, 95% of the time I need at least a little something sweet after dinner (even if it’s a piece of candy, which is why I love those Ghiradelli chocolates, they are the perfect size!

That’s true! Sugar-wise, it’s not much different than pb & j!
Ah! Fluffernutters! I forgot about those beauties. Thanks for the much needed reminder.

My pleasure!
I just received those chips to sample in the mail as well, but I haven’t yet. I’m glad to hear I have something to look forward to!
Yes, I always need something after dinner…fruit, dark chocolate, a Clif Kid ZBar, a Vitatop, or some Dark Chocolate Surprise if I have some avocados and bananas on hand. Give it a try.

I’ll definitely give that a try! Chocolate Vitatops are a great thing to have on-hand for something sweet… I need to pick some up!
Yes! I love the Peanut Butter Chip ones also, and the Pumpkin remind me of a carrot cake!

So excited about these chicken parm bites…and to hear about this house of yours! So cool! PS: We’re looking at buying our second house (um, I feel old) and I’m definitely up for shared decorating tips!
