Snackiversary

Can you believe I missed Smart Snacker's Snackiversary!? It was a year ago on November 5th that I started Smart Snacker!  It has been an interesting year of blog page face lifts, over 100 posts, lots of tips, tricks and products, tons of support from you guys and my life in a nut shell! If your a longtime reader you also know that when this blog was started there were two of us and along the way I have lost my side kick but nonetheless, I stuck it out and I am glad to have done so! So...thank you readers for all of your support, without you I'd be writing to myself!? :)

How could I forget the Snackiversary? I know your wondering...well, only because I was at the single most important conference of my profession...the Annual American Dietetic Association Food and Nutrition Conference and Expo [can you blame a gal]!? At the conference I saw/met tons of nutrition "super stars," attended some awesome seminars and ate my way through the expo, all while getting a taste of the great city of Boston, MA!
Boston at Night.

 
At the expo I tried every type of gluten free product on the market, vegan cheese, protein bars, hemp and almond milks, Greek yogurts, cheeses, frozen yogurts, ensure nutrition supplement ice cream and frapp and the list goes on! It was easily my favorite part!

I have another trip coming up this weekend and it may or may not involve traveling, Georgetown cupcakes, good friends and [more] fabulous food ; )

One door closes...

..one door opens? After 1222 supervised practice hours and 10 million modules and projects all for my dietetic internship I am so ready to start practicing! I cannot believe I am done already, well I cannot believe the day has come. Next step my friends...my RDE than I sit for the RD exam! yikeees!

Obviously, a congratulations is in order. I decided what a better way to spend it other than happy hour (I love happy hour)!  
I ended up at Fleming's Steakhouse. It's a bit expensive and has a formal dining atmosphere however, the bar is hoppin' during after to work hours! I chose FS because a while back Mom, Dad and I went for this great happy hour deal "5-6-7" well ever since I went I have been itching to go back...so I did just that (OH and I had a gift card that was burning a hole in my wallet)!
 
 
I enjoyed a glass of chardonnay (not one of my favorites) and split two servings of the tenderloin carpaccio and one serving of the Seared Ahi Tuna...heavenly!
 
Tonight I also celebrated by going to the gym (is that nerdy?); I hit my two favorite classes rpm and bodypump for a GREAT calorie burn :)
 
 
 
I'll be back tomorrow with more...promise!
I am still celebrating, although now with some R&R
