Personality Parfaits and Salmon Sandwiches


I'd like to think my Fruit and Yogurt Parfaits have personality


Sliced Nectarine, Banana, and Kiwi in 0% Plain Organic Yogurt


Parfaits shouldn't just be a quick and tasty Breakfast, they
 should be pretty and represent your creative mood as well


After Breakfast I snapped more photos of Deer that loitering outside of my house


Mama and Baby Deer


"Yeah, take a hike guys!" hehe


For Lunch I mixed a can of Raincoast Trading Wild Pink Salmon 
with Light Canola Mayonnaise, Diced Onion, and Black Pepper


Spread on 2 slices of lightly (Earth Balance
buttered Organic Whole Grain Bread


And pieces of Red and Green Leaf Lettuce


Sandwiched together and cut into thirds


I learnt growing up to slice my sandwiches diagonally, then
 slicing one of those halves into half again... just like a traditional deli


I'm obsessed with Salmon Sandwiches



Up Next: Snacking Squirrel is packing her
 bags and heading to Vancouver for the week!
 I'll have plenty of photos to come of my travels :)

  3. Every time I see you posting pictures of deer I get so jealous! When I lived with my parents, I saw deer around all the time, but now that I live in the city, I never get to see any friendly deer! Tell them Hi from me ;)

  8. I love the deer, they are so cute and graceful. I came face to face with one in Jasper - I think she was more scared than I was!

  9. Is it weird that deer sort of scare me? I don't like how unpredictable their next move will be... this is mostly when I run into them on the running trails, though.

  10. I was taught to cut my sanwiches that way too :)

    And I only had my first parfait about a week ago. I was really missing out!

  11. Amazing as always. I have to eat this for breakfast tomorrow!

    As an expert in greek yogurt :) I have only one suggestion, try to avoid 0%. Try to eat the full fat in smaller portions because the low fat is very very processed.

  15. You're coming to Van and didn't tell me? I'm hurt! ;) Kinda. Not really. But if you have some time, let's go grab some juice from the Juice Truck, or something equally fun. Have a great trip!

  18. Oh those sweet deer remind me of my parent's home. I miss Colorado! And I agree, your parfaits do have personality. Both you and your yogurt are pretty grand :-) Thank you for sharing yourself and your yummy treats. I hope you had a great day today, and I hope you have an even better day tomorrow. Hugs and love from Austin!

  22. Oh how fun! I love when those little deer have the spots still. I want to snuggle with them.

    Also, how awesome is red lettuce? I just started eating it and now I'm kicking myself for having taken so long to eat it's sweet buttery leaves!
