Happy Friday!

Wow, did this week go by fast or what??  Pretty soon Hannah will be going to Prom and graduating – then leaving for Germany – she actually leaves for Germany in just over six weeks! Breakfast yesterday was really good – I had forgotten that I had picked up red chile tortillas the last time I was at Whole Foods.  Inside was 1/4 of a...

Macaroni and Cheese Soup and Chili Cheese Fries?

Macaroni and Cheese Soup and Chili Cheese Fries?
For whatever reason, yesterday turned into comfort food day!   I started out the day with a baked burrito, for lack of a better word.  I threw out the original recipe, so I can’t give proper credit, but here was my take on it! 1 low carb tortilla (mine was 110 calories and 11 fiber!) 1/4 cup black beans 1 cup baby spinach 1/2 cup egg...

I am in training. . .

to be a morning person!  I need to get to the gym in the morning to add strength training to my routine.  Luckily, I have the lovely Janetha as my coach – whether she knows it or not!  I’ve printed out some of her workouts to do as soon as hit publish, I am out the door! Breakfast was a black bean/red pepper/egg beater burrito...

I’d like everyone . . .

to mark your calendars for yesterday.  Because that is the day that not only did I do all the laundry – I dried it, and get this!  I actually folded it all and put it all away! You see, I am the type of person who throws laundry in, realizes two days later that I actually washed laundry, it kind of smells since its been...

It’s Official . . .and a Giveaway!

I am addicted to breakfast pizza!   The base of this pizza was 1/3 cup of my marinara when I had my asparagus ravioli earlier in the week – I added zucchini and chicken sausage to the base. Topped with spinach, 1.5 ounce mozzarella cheese and 1 egg.  Bake in 425 degree oven for 15 minutes, or until egg is set. Done!  Jenn and I still...

Date Night = Great Night!

I still hadn’t made my quiche or scallop bisque – so yesterdays breakfast and lunch is what I like to call “throw shit in a bag and see what you can put together at work!” I grabbed an egg to make an Arnold thin egg sammie using the last of our steak.  I got to work, started to crack the egg and nothing!  I cracked...

Hash

I loved reading your comments about Hannah being vegetarian – or what some of you called “Flexitarian!”  I had never even heard of that before! My day started out with hash, or rather, what can I cut up and make for breakfast.  1.5 ounce steak, red pepper, shredded zucchini, 4 ounces canned potato and 1 egg.  On the side was 1 oz. of sourdough bread...

Hannah blames me.

Yep.  My daughter blames me for her not liking meat.   You see, when I was pregnant with her, any type of meat turned me off – even my beloved burgers and steak!  What did I crave?  Chinese food!  So my 18 year old daughter hates meat and loves Chinese food! 😀  She mentioned to me the other day that unknowingly, she’d gone 4 days without...

One of those days. . .

Yesterday was one of those work days that just goes on and on, where you feel like you’ve been there an hour and all of a sudden it’s 4:00 in the afternoon!  I worked late last night, but expected to.  Tony was nice enough to wait for me to come home so we could have dinner together.  I love you Tony! I took exactly seven...
