Happy Halloween!

Our work party was a lot of fun!  And for the third year in a row I won funniest costume!  Now my costume was not elaborate, but it totally fit me – I went as Julia Child!  Bon Appetit!  I was going to do a cooking demonstration, but everyone was hungry and started eating. I made mummy hot dogs (no picture – they went fast!)...

Can’t Wait for Tomorrow!

It’s my office annual Halloween party and my costume is going to kick ass!  You’ll just have to come back tomorrow night for the pictures! 😀 It’s the end of the week, I didn’t do a full grocery shop this week, so it was my yogurt/granola/apple combo – but I added a tablespoon of peanut butter for dipping for extra protein and calories. I picked...

Yet another. . .

reason I love my Tony!  The computer I use to blog is our household computer, not a lap top.  It’s been running slow and he did some clean up on it tonight and now it is lightening fast!  I really need to delete some photos though – considering I’ve been blogging for over a year there are WAY too may pictures of food!  Thanks for...

Balancing Act

Today was a balancing act with my blood sugar.  it always happens when I jump back into exercise.  My goal was to work out at the gym two mornings this week, and I thought I set my alarm for 6:30, but it was 6:50.  I probably could have made it, but I decided to stay home and do Level 1 of Jillian’s 30 day shred. ...

Happy Monday!

Hope everyone enjoyed their Sunday and got back into the swing of things today.  One thing for sure I noticed is that when I work more, the first things to go out the window is exercise and food planning!  I’ll get to that in a minute though! 😀 My eats were pretty unforgettable yesterday, or i.e. bad choices!  I had two homemade chicken wings and...

Party Pizza Saturday?

When I asked Tony if he had a taste for anything for dinner he said “I don’t care baby.”  So that means one of two things – tacos or pizza!  Pizza won! 😀 Earlier today I realized I had to use up some ground chicken that I bought to make chicken potstickers – Hannah absolutely loves them and they are good on their own, or...

Happy Saturday and ANOTHER Happy Birthday!

To my MIL!  Happy Birthday Bonnie!  We feel bad because we thought my father in law was in Italy for his birthday a couple days ago, but he doesn’t leave until tonight!  So we didn’t actually call him – sorry about that! 🙁 We talked to my MIL this morning and since their birthdays are two days apart – they celebrate both in the middle...

One more day til the Weekend!

This week has kind of gone by really fast – with my overtime at work this week, I am REALLY ready for the weekend!  Since I got home late last night, and there was so much to watch on the DVR – who watches Modern Family?  That show kills!  The cast is perfect!  And then there were some of my food shows.  Man v. Food...

Can you feel the brand new day!

I am sure many of you never saw The Wiz (circa 1979?!) when it came out in the movie theaters, but I love the song Diana Ross sings! Everybody look around ‘Cause there’s a reason to rejoice you see Everybody come out And let’s commence to singing joyfully Everybody look up And feel the hope that we’ve been waiting for Everybody’s glad Because our silent...

Not My Day. . .

I left the house, got two blocks away, and remembered I forgot my camera!  I was going into work early anyway, so swung back around, picked it up, I was good to go!  My breakfast, zucchini egg white sammie with bacon and herbed goat cheese – yum!  Pull out my camera – absolutely NO battery!  I think I left it plugged into the computer over...
