Check out my progress on Back to the B-Hut
Happy Friday, everyone! I have at last returned to the Broccoli Hut HQ, here in Durham. Despite some narsty weather around the southeast today, Seth and I managed to arrive home safely this afternoon. As indicated by my posts over the past week, I had a blast this spring break—a trip to remember, for certain. Nonetheless, I am glad to be back. Here’s just a sampling of things that delight me about being home:
- sleeping in my own bed
- using a shower that does not require a PhD to operate
- having access to vegetarian sources of protein (read: tofu and chickpeas!)
- being able to concoct multiple blended delights throughout the day
- getting back into the groove:)
What things do you miss most about home when you travel?
Anyway, here is how I managed to fuel myself today:
We woke up bright and early to catch a ride to the airport. Before leaving, I made an attempt to use up some of the groceries we had purchased earlier in the week. I ended up with a dang tasty breakfast wrap.
By the time we got a chance to stop for lunch, my appetite was raging. We opted to grab a couple of subs from Quiznos, where I ordered a friggin awesome veggie sandwich, sans cheese/dressing. Ever since I started dating Seth, I’ve regain respect for a good sandwich; I’ve rekindled my passion for the likes of Subway and Quiznos. Then again, it could just be because I love massive amounts of bread:)
Once home, I headed to the gym. I must say, it’s quite a different experience to run amidst the 5 o’clock crowd rather than my usual early birds. Anyway, I re-fueled afterward with a simple protein shake.
Whew, now I am off to organize my life. Have a fab weekend, all!

I always love coming home after a trip. I miss my bed, my food, everything that’s “familiar”
I love vacations, but getting home after being away is amazing too. What can I say, I love my boring routine
I miss the routine in general when i travel.
Mmm Quiznos does have a great veggie sub!
I never am usually ready to come home after a trip. I will say that I miss having my entire wardrobe to choose from though!
welcome home
I love travelling, but last time I went on a trip, I was away for 3 weeks and all I wanted when I came home was oatmeal with almond butter and blueberries. So funny the things we miss.
Enjoy your weekend!
Sounds like you had a great trip!
But it is nice when you get your own bed back, and an easy shower!!
Amazing pics – welcome bak, girl!
Enjoy your weekend
I miss cooking & baking when I’m away and DEF having access to vegetarian friendly foods! Our hotel for our vacation was somewhat accommodating, but some of the restaurants had no options for me. Glad you got in a nice workout and a delicious looking smoothie
it is always nice to get back into the groove of things! welcome home!
gorgeous breakfast wrap!!! I had quiznos the other day for the first time in months too!!
when i travel i miss having my OWN SPACE, own desk, a kitchen, a car, etc.
(nice to be home from India!)
LOVE YOU MISS CAROLINE ZE BROCCCCCCCCCOLI HUT!
That is one tasty looking wrap!
My own shower and bed are the only things that I miss while on vacation. Well, and my own kitchen….
yay for spring break – it looks like you two had seriously such a fun time. i loved seeing all the disney pics.
getting home = the worst and best thing. worst because there are a bajillion thangs to do but best because there is NOTHING like sleeping in your own bed
Yum your breakfast wrap looks great. Just letting you know I was totally living through ou on your spring break! Ive never been to disney but you made it look like so much fun
