A week of new foods

I’ve been trying some new foods and a tea every day of the week so far. I love trying new food items, don’t you?

Pain au chocolat rocked my Monday! Wish I could make this at home. My co-worker’s wife made it and the taste of the cinnamon and chocolate had all of us women in the office ooing and aahing. Perfect PMS food if you ask me. Maybe I should try to make it this weekend?

Tuesday included a Peppermint Stick Clif bar that I got on clearance over the weekend for only $1. I was craving something sweet mid morning and half of this satisfied me.

Today, I had this Mighty Leaf Vanilla Bean tea. I’d never had Mighty Leaf tea before and this flavor was so yummy!

Thanks to a recommendation via twitter from Sarah, I tried a Pesto Cavatappi dish at Noodles & Co. tonight. Craig had a new pasta too–the Bacon, Mac and Cheesburger.

We both loved our dishes!

Plus I got to take some pasta home to have for dinner tomorrow night. Aren’t their take out packages the cutest?

My husband is pretty cute too.

Anyway…the fun doesn’t stop there with new food this week. You see, I love German food, but I haven’t been to Mader’s Restaurant in Milwaukee. It’s the quintessential German restaurant in town, so it’s kind of crazy I’ve never been. My co-worker asked if I want to go there for lunch with him tomorrow and I am so excited to try it! I think I’ll have to eat some meat to get a true German food experience, so I’ll likely go with Chicken Schnitzel.

I’ve felt tired all week and failed on going to the gym the last two days. I went right after work tonight and it felt so good to get moving again.

I’ll hopefully be back tomorrow night with a recap of Mader’s. My co-worker doesn’t know I am a food blogger, but I’ll try to sneak some pictures of the place and what I have to eat.
