My Read-A-Thon Food

Okay, I didn’t post my reading area because, frankly, I didn’t get it all cleaned up. I decided sleep was better. Anyway, here are picks of my food. I want to preface this by saying it is A LOT of food and I will in no way be eating all of it. As a matter of fact, I usually munch on my readathon snacks over the course of a month or two after the readathon. Additionally, I am not the only one in my house hold that will be eating from all of this. So I am not quiet the pig that this post will make me out to be.

Drinks:

• Amazing Mango Smoothie drink from Bolthouse Farms. This is a favorite of mine. It is incredibly smooth and very healthy. The amount of fruit in each bottle is astounding.
• Sparkling Pumpkin Cider. I saw this in the store and it looked really interesting. I took a quick sip before putting it in the fridge. It was really good. It reminds me of Harry Potter!
• Cherry Coke
• A&W Rootbeer
• Hot Apple Cider and Hot Chocolate might also make an appearance if need be.

Breakfast:

• Cinnamon Coffee Cake Bites
• Whole Wheat Bagel with Vegetable Garden Cream Cheese
• Pumpkin Pie Lite Yougart

 Lunch:

• Tomato Mozzarella Pasta Salad

Dinner:

• Spaghetti with Tomato Basil Sauce (hmm, I don’t think I thought about the amount of pasta when I was grocery shopping. I might have Lettuce Wraps for lunch instead).
• Rosemary Olive Oil Bread with Pesto Sauce. Now this is delicious. I will post a pick when I make this, because it is simply to die for!

Fruit:

• Kiwis
• Pineapple
• Strawberries

Cheese:

I want to preface this really quickly by saying that I love cheese. It is probably one of my favorite foods. Every readathon I allow myself to treat myself to a couple of the more exotic cheeses.

• Fontina
• Edam
• Mozzarella with herbs in it.

Chips:

• Hint of Lime Tortilla Chips
• Doritos Flamas (I can only eat 5-10 at a time)
• Cinnamon Sugar Pita Chips
• Mango Salsa
• Cajun Bean Dip

Sweeties:

• Lindt Chocolate Truffles (The most amazing chocolate in the world. Another treat that I allow myself only during readathons.
• Crunchie Bar
• Aeros Mint
• Raspberry Lemonade twistie thing
• Cupcakes:
  • Obsession – a Chocolate Cupcake with Chocolate Chips and Peanut Butter icing
  • Lemon Surprise – Lemon Cake with a Raspberry filling
  • Red Velvet
  • Snickerdoodle – Cinnamon infused cupcake with cinnamon frosting. One of the best cupcakes I have ever had in my life!

So those are my treats. I know, there is a lot. But I promise, most of this won’t even be touched at all during the readathon. I do this every single readathon. The problem is that I need options. Too many options. So I buy WAY too many treats. Oh well, I am prepared to live with this problem.

So what are you treating yourself to this readathon? Do you have pics? Which of my treats is your favorite?
