For some crazy reason I didn’t get hungry until 2pm today. I finished the entire family room (and by finished I mean all boxes are out – it still needs couch + décor). Photos to come on a sunnier day! We’ve got lots of gray clouds here.
Last night, we were freezing in bed. This morning I had to turn the air back off. It’s definitely not summer anymore. And also, watermelon has lost its lure.
For lunch I made a salad sprinkled with bleu D’auvergne, leftover salmon, green peppers, fruity vinegar, lavender salt and Grawnola.
And ye ole watermelon
I’m headed to the bakery for a bit. Have a jolly good afternoon!

I know I’m finding that exact same thing with my summer fruit…it’s definitely coming to an end. Luckily there are so many delicious things to eat in Fall otherwise I would be REALLY sad 🙂
Cait's Plate says
Also? I was the total opposite of you today. I literally was counting down the minutes until noon so I could eat lunch! Yesterday I was on the later side…appetites are funny aren’t they? I credit your fullness to that delicious Cville Crunch bread 😉
Courtney says
yummy summery meal! really feeling fall today 🙂
Annette @ EnjoyYourHealthyLife says
I ate a bunch of spinach at lunch today too! And I WAS hungrier than normal/earlier than usual today as well…usually I don’t eat until 1:30/2!
Sad face about Summer leaving….. 🙁
Ellie@fitforthesoul says
the watermelon definitely looks more “dead”. Ahhh I’m actually very excited for Autumn~I wish I could visit CVille and see what it’s like there in person.
Brittany @ Itty Bits of Balance says
Summer fruit is leaving us 🙁 The price of blueberries went back to 3.99 at the store…
Kiran @ KiranTarun.com says
It’s definitely quite hot over here in Florida and the summer produce no longer taste as good 🙁
Anna @ On Anna's Plate says
We had 85 degree weather yesterday…but now it’s dropped to 63!!! It ain’t summer, and it ain’t fall…I feel like it’s just kind of crazy around here!
Shaya (Eye Girl Eats) says
I’m over watermelon too– but I still love me some cantaloupe.
Can’t wait to see the pictures!
Jen says
I just eat whenever. If I waited till I actually felt hungry, it wouldn’t happen. My signals are messed up.
It’s so cold here now too. Very deceptive though because the sun is out but the wind is biting. Not ready for fall 🙁
Casey @ Pocket Full of Sunshine says
Pretty pictures are always 🙂
Alexa @ Simple Eats says
Love salmon on salads…I need to bring that back in my life!
Deva @ Deva by Definition says
Summer is nearly over here, too. We’re getting temps in the forties overnight. I may need to dig out the heavy quilt tonight!
Ashley @ Coffee Cake and Cardio says
Its super chilly here in DC. I’m really excited about a chilly run tomorrow morning!
Holly @ The Runny Egg says
There was frost on my car this morning — shows how cold it has gotten! Yikes.
Angela @ Eat Spin Run Repeat says
I have a wedge of watermelon left in my fridge too.. but I fear it might be my last this season!! It’s definitely getting chilly here too. Stay warm! 🙂
J3nn (Jenn's Menu and Lifestyle Blog) says
Freezing here too!! And I love it 😀
The salmon on your salad looks superb!
Caitlin @ Cake with Love says
I am not ready for Autumn, I still want cherries, and watermelon and to lay by the pool, ist already chilly in NYC!
Gina @ Running to the Kitchen says
I didn’t eat anything until 3pm and then I had a slice of apple cake. Oops! 😉
It is quite the rainy, dreary, cold day here too. I think summer may be gone for good 🙁
Liz @ Tip Top Shape says
It is freezing over here in Chicago. Last night it was 40 degrees-I had to wear my winter coat to class.
Shayla @ The Good Life says
So sad summer fruits are coming to an end…at least pumpkin and pink lady apples are coming in! 🙂
Can’t wait to see the family room photos, I bet it looks beautiful!
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table says
Speaking of watermelon… did you try that 21st Amendment Hell or High Watermelon beer this summer? I have still seen it in some stores. It was really good!
KathEats says
I’ve had it in the past – pretty good!
Krissy @ Shiawase Life says
Yeah, the grey-ness is weird…makes me just want to drink hot things…tea, cider, coffee….
Ashley O. @ The Vegetable Life says
I had a peach today and it was not all the great. I was sad because it was evident that summer fruit season is ending 🙁
Atleast I love apples and apple season is just starting!!!
Lara @ TresLaLa says
I dunno… that watermelon still looks fab to me! I’m not ready to let summer go!
Rebecca says
All summer long, I eat watermelon like it’s my job. But now I have half a melon sitting in the fridge and all I can think about is PUMPKIN! Ha, I love the changing seasons 🙂
PS– that table (not a cloth, right?) makes a gorgeous food backdrop!!
Lauren @ What Lauren Likes says
Yeaha for summer fruit! Love the idea of watermelon right now….
Angel7 says
It is kind of cold here as well! It feels like fall/football season weather!

Heather @ Get Healthy with Heather says
Salmon on salad=great decision. Sad that watermelon is losing it’s summer appeal. Can’t wait to see the progress pics!
kathleen @ the daily crumb says
i’m going to miss summer fruit but am SO excited for an influx of winter root veggies. they majorly temper my distaste for winter (i’m in chicago, so it’s EXTRA terrible here from december – february)
Averie @ Love Veggies and Yoga says
Watermelon has lost it’s va-va-voom here, too. The temps are cooler but the last two melons I bought were just…meh. Guess it’s time for apples 🙂
Katie @ Peace Love and Oats says
your salads always look and sound so good! one day I will have such skills… Glad the move is going well!
Molly says
on days like today when you weren’t hungry until 2pm are you still planning on having dinner at the same time? or does it throw your meals off for the day? I find that I won’t be hungry for dinner if I have a late lunch.. and I might get hungry later for dinner but if I eat much I won’t be hungry for breakfast in the morning..? I hate it when my meals get all out of wack.
KathEats says
Actually sometimes I’m just hungrier in the afternoon – today I had bread snacks at the bakery just 2 hours after lunch. Weird!
Cathy says
Sunny and 93 here in Houston, Tx. Would love some cool mornings.
Hilliary @ Happily Ever Healthy says
It is freezing here in minnesota! I had to run back in the house and add a layer as I was leaving! I am sad that summer fruits are no longer going to be good!
Sana says
the weather has been so odd, I want regular fall weather!!
lynn @ the actor's diet says
it’s still very summer-y here and i feel like i have not gotten nearly enough watermelon this season!
Sweet and Savvy says
I woke up freezing too with the realization it was NOT summer! 🙁 I will miss summer fruit.. but bring on the pumpkin and the apples!
Katie @ Talk Less, Say More says
I don’t think I’ve had enough watermelon this summer because that looks SO good to me!!!
Molly @ RDexposed says
But now it’s time for warm sweats to prance around the house in!!
katie @KatieDid says
I know what you mean about just not getting hungry until later for some unknown reason. I try to just eat when hunger strikes, but sometimes even when I’m not too hungry for lunch I end up eating and eating and not getting full for quite some time! Who knows, bodies are peculiar huh!
Sandy says
I said the same thing last night, the watermelon just wasn’t appealing and I was craving pumpkin pie. We had the clouds here in the Midwest yesterday but sunshine and 60 today was great.
Hillary says
Feeling a lot chillier here in MD, too—tomorrow morning is only supposed to be 43 degrees! Yesterday was 90! Hellooooo change of seasons.
Betsy says
Girl, you have got me hooked on Salmon… two nights in a row for me! Seriously, you inspired me to try to eat more of it. I know it is so good for my brain. Now if I could just find me some of that cheese!
Hannah says
It’s totally almost summer here! WOOOOOT!
D says
That salad looks amazing. I’m not even a salmon guy.
Chelsea @ One Healthy Munchkin says
It’s getting chillier here too! Today I almost wished I had worn my fall jacket!
Khushboo says
THe opposite is happening here in Mumbai- after 3 months of heavy rain, the temperatures are finally heating up…so glad!
barb @ wishful chef says
Funny, I had leftover salmon too. Made an omelette but will make a salad like yours next time. It’s getting chilly up here as well…was freezing last night. I miss Summer already, but super excited to cook some Fall dishes!
JenATX says
haha that watermelon is a funny sight to see in the midst of all the pumpkins these days
Meghan @ Day-to-Day Crazy says
I am such a fan of fish on salad. 🙂 Yum!
