Happy WIAW! Today’s What I Ate Wednesday is a fun one – it was last Thursday, which was the day of my office clambake. Have you ever been to a clambake? I had been to lobster bakes when I lived in Boston, but clambakes are a seasonal regularity here. And each year my office has one and they are delicious.
The day started out a little different from usual. Instead of eggs, I had a smoothie bowl. It was a mix of frozen fruit and some protein powder, topped with chia seeds and flaxseed.
Oh, and some coffee mixed with cinnamon. So delicious!
For lunch, I had a salad, leftover chicken sausage and a sweet and salty peanut bar.
Snacks during the afternoon included some kombucha, peanut M&Ms and an apple.

i ate more than these but forgot to photograph them at first
Then it was time for the clambake. Appetizers and beer first:
And then clambake time. Clams, chicken, corn and sweet potato.
There were so many dessert options. Cherry pie, brownies, cookies and s’mores. I opted for the s’mores. I LOVE roasting marshmallows and these were perfectly roasted.
And that was it! A pretty stuffed day.
Some questions for you:
- Have you ever had a clambake before?
- What’s something great you ate today?
That sounds like such a fun day!! The s’mores would have been my favorite part since I don’t eat clams 😉 haha but I would have been totally content with chocolate + graham crackers!
There’s something about those lunch time salads, even eaten out of Tupperware which makes them amazing.
Happy WIAW and thanks for linking up.
Thanks! I love a good lun ch salad 🙂
I don’t like clams, but I think I would like everything else about a clambake! I would be happy enough just eating all the desserts:)
I love clambakes, I’m such a New England girl. Clams, mussels, potatoes, corn on the cob…all baked to perfection 🙂
A clambake sounds so fun! Colorado isn’t the best place to find good seafood so I’m pretty jealous.
grapefruit shandy! YUM. want that. i’ve been having pumpkin lately and loving it! ’tis the season!
Great post, love the clam bake and s’mores! I actually had a pretty good grilled cheese sandwich today. Nothing to write home about, but it really hit the spot!
Oooh grilled cheese! It’s officially fall- so tis the season!
Never been to a clam bake before, but I do love me CLAMS!!!
What a great day of yummy food! I have had clams before but never been to a clam or lobster bake before. If I ever move to Boston I will have to make sure to attend one!
Oh my stars I would love to have s’more right. now.
I love your afternoon snack! Kombucha + Peanut M&Ms = a winning combo:)
