-Get out of school and drive to the dentists to get a crown on my tooth after my root canal a few weeks ago.
-Kick back with some bubble gum scented laughing gas while watching E True Hollywood Story, Kate and Pippa (the tv is on the ceiling at my dentists office). I feel like Kate and I really are best friends now that I know her whole story. What would I do without E Network?
-Go to the bathroom after the dentist is all done repairing my mouth to take a picture of my puffy, numb face because I know you really wanted to see it. It was really awkward when someone walked in as I was taking the first picture. My job in life is to help people realize they are normal compared to me.
-Find out that a crown on my tooth costs more than my yearly budget for frozen yogurt….I know, how rude of them. Maybe cutting back my budget for fro yo will prevent another crown from ever being needed….interesting cycle.
-Make my lunch. I am very OCD about this. Heaven forbid I don’t have all of my food ready for the next day.
-Clean the house top to bottom while listening to Felicity via Netflix.
-Make a fancy dinner of Creamy Potato soup (with broccoli) and a whole wheat pita.
-Ate my dinner, did my dishes and enjoyed my dessert while Billy was still eating his dinner. Once that mouth was denumbified I was READY to eat. We are definitely couch/cofee table eaters.
It is the end of the term at school today and somehow this week I have received a lot of candy with students late work….I wonder why?
——————————————————————–
What are some of your bullets from LAST NIGHT?
We just bought a bunch of pitas….any recommendations of things to eat them with or how to prepare an awesome pita based meal?
What was the last show you watched?
-Felicity and E True Hollywood story. I need to catch up on Modern Family ASAP…..have the last two episodes been good?

I am the same way with getting my lunch ready for the next day – I definitely don’t want to do anything in the morning I can do the night before :P

Lindsay @ Lindsay's List
Felicity is SO good!! Man – loving that it’s on Netflix now!
I used to think that Ben was awesome, but watching it now at 29, Noel was the best guy for sure.
Janae
AGREED….Ben can seriously be a JERK and Noel is such a sweet heart. It’s funny how we realize over time these things ha. Have an amazing weekend with your beautiful family!
Lindsey
– Carpooled home from work with the hubby
– Called my Mom
– Watched Big Band Theory
– Made a fancy supper of “pilgrim” grilled cheese sandwiches
– Prepped today’s blog post
– Went to Jerry Seinfeld
– Laughed…a lot
– Home – showered and bed (yes, by 10pm!)
I like to stuff pitas with chicken, tzatziki sauce, lettuce and tomato.
And yes the last 2 Modern Family’s were great!
Janae

Britt @ Runwithbritt

-Test
-Gym
-Work
-Dinner
-Study all night
Supppppperrrrr exciting, I know. :) I can’t wait to watch at least one show this weekend. School is consuming my love for reality TV!
Coy
I have ZERO shame when it comes to a pita. I will put anything inside of it, including a hot dog with mustard. I eat those fun little wheat things almost every day. I even lather them up with peanut butter and honey.
As far as TV shows go, I’m watching way too many. Survivor, BLoser, Modern Family. Yeah, Modern Family would have to be my favorite I think!
Janae
A hot dog pita sounds INCREDIBLE!!! PB and honey…yes please!
Gina @ Running to the Kitchen
Make a pita pizza! So easy and just as delicious as the real thing :)
Ashley @ My Food 'N' Fitness Diaries
I am watching Felicity via Netflix right this very minute! I’m addicted to it pretty much. I love that show.
As for pita meal ideas… you could make them into mini pizzas; quesadillas; veggie/hummus wraps; PB&J?? ;)
Janae
DELICIOUS IDEAS!! Thanks Ashley. We should have a Utah/felicity/ice cream meet up!
Meg
– consulted
– went to the gym
– made a big salad for dinner with popcorn and hot chocolate for dessert
– watched greys and private practice
When I buy pitas, I make pita chips, pita pizzas, stuffed pita sandwiches, all yummy and delicious!
Janae
Best dessert ever. I am going to have to try your pita chips, great idea!
Shannon
– Burned trash
– Ran
– Work
– Deal with irritating people
– Feel like passing out from exhaustion because my legs seem to think that 5 miles is 50, since it’s been so long since they’ve run more than 4
– Home
– Sleep
You can make pita pizzas. Just use the pita as the crust, or you can shove all the pizza toppings inside the pita.
And I sort of watched Dance Moms yesterday, but it was just a recap of the craziest moments of the season, so I didn’t really pay attention. Last show I actually paid attention to was The Lying Games. And I was extremely disheartened to find out the House came on later than it’s scheduled time, so it didn’t record on my DVR =( And my internet is too slow to watch it online.
Janae
Boo to the irritating people. CONGRATS ON THE FIVE MILES. I feel your pain, mileage makes me feel exhausted right now because I am just coming back. I have never heard of Dance Moms, I can’t wait to watch it!
Shannon
Oh my gosh, it is the craziest show! The moms are the biggest drama queens, but the kids can be pretty darn bratty, too. Well, mainly a certain one, Maddie. It’s on Lifetime. They just finished the first season, but it’s not really something you have to watch from the beginning to know what’s going on.
And you’re doing great on coming back to running! I’m hoping to be up to 10 miles here pretty soon, as I have a half marathon on November 6 that I DO NOT want to miss! Are you doing the full in NYC?
Theresa
ahhh the past couple episodes of modern family have been great, catch up ASAP!!
Bullets from last night..hmm..
-food shopping for dinner
-i made a salmon sandwich and kevin made himself a steak. we had mounds of veggies
-lazing on the couch watching dexter and modern family
-trying to calm nacho down because hes deathly scared of rain and was shaking like a leaf
pitas, YUM! i like to make my own homemade pita chips by drizzling them with a little olive oil and some seasonings of my choice and sticking them in the oven for a few…i enjoy them with hummus or a white bean dip that I love making. you can also make gyros with pita, which is delicious and pretty easy. get some tzakiti sauce from costco, thats what i always do..i eat it with SO many things, hahaha
last show I watched was modern family! i have alot of DVR catching up to do this weekend!
Janae
YAY for a DVR weekend! Okay, your pita chips sound amazing. Your sandwiches sound amazing!
Chloe (In Fine Feather)
Felicity is my favorite :)
Some bullets for me:
-Finished my biochem test. Boom!
-Got fro-yo with a few friends & thought about YOU and your fro-yo runs
-spent WAY too much time on the internet and stayed up late
-watched this:
and thought about how I could change our society to empower women. deep, i know :)
Kim
I like to warm the pita in the oven, then top it with tuna, onions, oregano, and cheese, pop it back in til the cheese is bubbly, and swoon.
Janae
Kim, that sounds incredible and I LOVE tuna….done and done.
Jenny Finnegan
My favorite thing on pita is hummus!!! Simple, but so delish. :)
Some bullets:
-Watched Real Housewives of NJ while on bike trainer
-Cooked/ate dinner with husband
-Made pumpkin spice syrup for homemade lattes
:)
Karen Greenberg
Oh, pumpkin spice syrup for homemade lattes. That sounds fantastic all the way around!
Karen Greenberg
Did a tutoring session yesterday where all the kids did was play games. They are coming to tutoring because they like me. What a weird concept for a new teacher! LOL
Watched my 8-year-old daughter do sparring in karate for the first time. I don’t know if I’ll actually be able to watch this upcoming tournament without having a heart attack!
Those are the big bullets of the day. Tonight I’m also catching up on Modern Family. Then I’ll move to Grey’s Anatomy, Private Practice, and Raising Hope.
Janae
That is awesome that your 8 year old does KARATE, that is so cool. We have the same favorite shows! That is awesome about the tutoring…who wouldn’t like you!?!?!
melissa
hey! I think you should do a post on getting into running shape physically and mentally…I do track in spring but I need to get in shape now for the season. love you and your blog.
Janae
GREAT IDEA!! Thanks so much Melissa and I am so excited for track season training starting wahoo!
Sheanna Caban
-Came home and made a fancy dinner of creamy BROCCOLI soup (I guess it was a soup day).
-Cuddled and played with my kids and helped Avory with her homework and studying for her English test next week.
-Did P90X yoga!
-Got some fro-yo with my husband and daughter
***It was a good night**
I love pita with hummus and tzaziki (how the crud do you spell that?) sauce!
Janae
I don’t know how to spell it either but I totally know what you are talking about ha. YAY for soup night. Fro-yo always makes a good night!
Courtney
You’re the shizz for watching Felicity. :) I mean, listening to it. I was obsessed with the show in High school, and am rewatching it again, much to the chagrin of my husband. :P
Janae
Seriously, it is INCREDIBLE! Billy refuses to watch it with me too!
Sheanna Caban
PS – I LOVE THAT PIC! Your facial expression is cracking me up!
Janae
Thanks girl! have an amazing Friday!
Erica
Bullet: Made a devils food cake with vanilla frosting for the hubby to bring into his office today. It is his b-day tom tom.
I love grilled veggie pitas. Favorite combo: Grilled zucchini, mushrooms, onions, and red peppers. Melt mozz. cheese over the veggies, and side of ranch for shizzle.
Happy Friday dear friend!
Janae
YOU TOO GIRL!! Ooooooh. Your grilled veggie pita sounds incredible (especially with the side of ranch)! AHHH PLEASE TELL THE HUBBY HAPPY HAPPY BIRTHDAY FOR ME (I feel like we are real life friends with him too)….enjoy some cake!
Lara
Pita Pizza!!! I had that last night (well, it was Naan bread, but close enough).
Janae
Lara, that sounds AMAZING!! Great idea, thanks!
Laura @ LauraLikesDesign
ooo you should make pita panini’s!
we are couch/coffeetable eaters too! no shame!
Janae
That sounds amazing…done and done. Let’s start a couch eating club.
Mara BHF
run.
school.
gym.
bunco.
:)
Alyssa @ Life of bLyss
random pita/tortilla tip I learned from my mama – to make it less dry, put a wet paper towel on it and microwave it. it makes it warm and doughy again! :)
Janae
You and your mama are BRILLIANT!
Sara
I love your white sweater – adorable!
My night was pretty boring! I’m fighting a cold and trying to get rid of it by my half this Sunday! Have a great weekend! :)
Janae
Thanks!! OH NO…get better ASAP and I can’t wait to hear all about your HALF on Sunday!
Brittany
Yay for pitas, I love them!! I love to make pita chips. You just cut them and put an olive oil, parsley, basil, garlic mixture on top and bake them in a 400 degree oven for like 5 minutes and they’re done.
Have them with hummus and it’s heaven. I also like to make pita pockets. Cut them in half and stuff turkey, lettuce, tomato, anything else you want inside :D
The last show I watched was grey’s anatomy last night. Hope your tooth & face feels better!
Janae
OH girl, your pita ideas are making me drool…those sound AMAZING, thank you so much!
Brittany
you are welcome!! :D
michele
we rarely eat at the table. The kitchen table is more of a desk for us.
Janae
US TOO….it has stacks of books and magazines on it. Oops:)
Cat @Breakfast to Bed
grill those things with lemon garlic vinaigrette, roasted veg and goat or feta cheese.
I made muffins. I love them.
Also? I ran 5 miles with no knee pain.
Janae
Holy cow, those sound amazing. CONGRATS ON THE PAIN FREE RUN…that makes my day!
Hannah @ PalmBeachRunner
I am a couch/ desk eater! haha! I like to be comfy
Jillian
The best receipe with a peeta is you put some chicken and cheese on the pita,and put it in the oven just until the chesse melts then you take it out, and put lettuce, tomato,onion, avocado with a tiny bit of mayo, and it becomes the california club pizza from california pizza kitchen- and its way yummy : )
Janae
HOLY COW…that sounds like the best thing in the world. We will be doing that for dinner tonight, thanks Jillian. YOU ARE THE BEST!
Melissa
Last show watched was Pan-AM! I love it!
I also love twix bars……do you remember when they had all different flavored ones? My fave was cookies and cream!! YUM
Janae
How did I forget about the flavored twix bars…those were the BEST!
Lindsey
I wanna play with the bullet things too!
Last night I:
– left work early
– took a nap
– folded laundry
– told self to stop leaving stuff in the washer and dryer so I don’t have to rewash and redry it because of wrinkles.
– talked to my mom
– went to gym
-hated the gym
-ran 8 miles per my stupid training plan
-made boyfriend bring me dinner because I was starving!
-watched Sons of Anarchy
-went to bed too late
Janae
Hope you catch up on sleep this weekend. YAY for the bf bringing you dinner. Why was the gym so bad…were you just not in the mood?
Lindsey
I just wasn’t in the mood. Mid distances in the middle of the week are lame but necessary. My BF was great because he helped motivate me by yelling that he doesn’t get up early on the weekends to drive me to races for me to quit or start to slack off now!
Corey @ Learning Patience
– start packing for Trans Atlantic Cruise
– blog
– watch Detroit Tigers game – they WON…whoo hoo
– sleep by 10pm
Glad your mouth is all fixed… i hate the dentist…really…hate.
xoxo from Trinidad
Caitlin C.
If you haven’t tried falafel in a pita, I highly recommend it, with tzatziki sauce!
I watched the latest “Ringer” and “Dance Moms” last night. Class class class.
Andrea
Modern Family is hilarious. The episode from 2 weeks ago made my cry I laughed so hard. Mitch and Cam go on a juice fast and craziness follows. Amazing!
Brittany *Sparkles*
LAST NIGHT – Grey’s Anatomy, made tiny ghosts to hang from lights in kitchen, made Halloween/Thanksgiving glass container things that smell like fresh cinnamon sticks, stayed up far too late and ran to work this morning TGIF.
Pitas — my BF’s mom makes Pita sloppy joes which are pretty good! and not as sloppy as a regular sloppy joe… so maybe a Pocket Joe?
Grey’s Anatomy/Private Practice with my sis :)
Rene Hall
We watched Modern Family and The Office last night. There was some definite LOLing.
Football practice – the weather here is perfect so I love sitting and watching my son’s team.
Rachelle
Love your dress in the picture. You are just gorgeous puffy cheeks or not. :)
Never give up fro-yo just make Billy become a dentist? That definitely sounds like the better option.
Andrea @ Andrea out loud!
I love bullets and would be happy to share mine from yesterday with u. in a good way.
-was late for work
-blowdried my hair in the car (i.e. rolled down all the windows for max air flow)
– almost fell asleep at my desk
– ate tacos
– drank lots of coffee
– worked late
– cleaned my shower
stayed up watching crime shows. yikes.
Eva @LittleMissGymRat
Ouuu CATCH UP!! Modern Family has been pretty fantastic so far… loves it. Also love TVs on the ceilings of dentist/orthodontist offices. It makes everything so much more bearable.
Have a saaaaaweet weekend!

-Shop with my mom some more
-Sleep
Gahh I hate root canals.. I’ve had 3! Terrible.
Grilled chicken, black beans, sweet potatoes, peppers, onions and some spices on a pita is really yummy.
Grilled chicken with pesto sauce.
Mediterranean style chicken (chicken, lettuce, peppers, hummus/tzaziki, garlic sauce, etc)
Pita pizzas! (these are my favourite)
Katie M.
I like to tear up pitas, toss them in olive oil and put them on top of casseroles for the last 10-15 minutes. They’re especially good for a crunch on spinach artichoke baked mac n cheese.
Emily@RunningPerspective
yummy pitass!
i like making mini pita pizzas they are the bestt!!!
add a little chicken or canned tuna on top for some extra protein! love ittt deliciouss!
Jamie "Sometimes Healthy" Girl
I’m obsessed with Felicity. Watch it in bed every night. Right now, I’m on Junior Year, my fave season ;-)
lindsay
guilty! we are coffee table/chair arm eaters. I like your bullets.
Mine went-
Doctors, store, meet hubs, walk dog, chat about day, make dinner, clean up, feet up, snack, snoooooze
Meaghan
We might have been separated at birth.. Twix, fro yo, potato soup, AND taking goofy pictures of ourselves to make others laugh? Yep, sounds about right. Too damn funny!
AliMc
hope your mouth feels better soon. I’ve had a rootcanal before….although I haven’t been to the dentist in over 5 years – yep I hate it that much. Your posts make me want to go just incase. I love all your funny pics – that funny that someone walked in :P
the last show I watched was survivor. yep
running ricig
I like your fancy dinner. I want some now!
My bullets from last night were:
-Happy hour with my coworkers
-Bake cookies
-bed
:)
Jenn
Please tell me where you got the white sweater! LOVE it! I;m a huge cardigan freak-I wear one pretty mich EVERY day!
~Jenn
Heather@The World Through My Eyes
I WANT THAT TWIX RIGHT NOW!!!!!! That seriously looks delicious!!!!!
Sarah
Raising Hope last night, that show is so freaking cute!
Rachel
This is my favorite pita snack:
Spread with PB and nutella, roll it around a banana and grill it in a waffle iron!
And Modern Family has been SO good! Cam was hysterical last episode…and Mitchell too! I can decide who I love more?!
Holly
Hope you are feeling better today! & isn’t it so crazy how expensive dental care can be?! It is ridiculous!! Don’t they realize that frozen yogurt is so much more enjoyable?! :D
Alex
I will be in NYC for work. I can’t run the marathon because I just had surgery but I’m definitely coming to support you.
I’m currently looking for healthy places to eat there and will let you know if you’re interested.
Hope your mouth feels better soon.
Oh and ps I’m french so please excuse my english mistakes ;)
Missy
Oh man sorry about the dentist visit, I just went the other day and they said I had a freakin cavity and I need a fill in and it’s gonna cost me $88, I mean dang am I made of money lol
Gracie (complicated day)
Best thing ever: hot, hopefully slightly crispy pitas, filled with rare steak strips, blue cheese, red onions, spinach, avocados, and nice tomatoes. If you have fresh basil throw that in too and grind pepper all over it. Yum!
Kate @ Chasing It
cutting into your froyo budget?!? wow. serious rudeness right there. :(
Pitas are AWESOME! you can stuff them full of things – do you guys like falafel? I know you can buy box mixes of it, and costco probably has pre-made falafels…just heat them up, cut them so they fit in the pita, add some tomatoes and spinach aand plain yogurt = home made greek food woooot!
Sarah
Hi bff! Love that dress. Where is it from?
I finally decided to start a blog but its in the very begining rough stages but im trying! Could you maybe send some readers my way? blueeyedbarbie.blogspot.com
Rebecca Tabb
I like to put pita in the oven with a little olive oil, cheese, tomatoes, bell peppers, mushrooms, and chicken. Super good!
