Quickest Post Ever

Quickest Post Ever
It’s storming.  Again.  This rain is getting old and depressing.  Yesterday we even had hail! It’s not safe to have our computer on while its storming, so I’ll have to post the recipe for my homemade pasta over the weekend. Breakfast:   Workout: Lunch:  Chicken stirfry with broccoli slaw, zucchini and tangerines Deal at the Store:  50% off lowest price, so I got 4.2 pounds...

Flapjacks and Balls

Flapjacks and Balls
Over the weekend I found a lone can of pumpkin in the back of my pantry.  Since it still feels like fall around here, I decided to make me and my boss pumpkin buttermilk pancakes. I really, really loved how these came out.  While my boss loves all things sweet for breakfast, me?  Not so much.  These had just the right amount of sweetness since...

We had some storms last night so I had to stay off the computer, but I wanted to thank everyone for your comments to Tony’s first Vlog!  We definitely will do another one, and hopefully get better at not only taking video but editing it too. I still can’t wrap my brain around what happened at the Boston Marathon yesterday.  I had several people I...

Tony’s Vlog Debut!

Tony’s Vlog Debut!
Friday morning I had to do a Sam’s Club and Walmart run on my way to work to stock up.  They had trouble with my card, I switched out a card from an attorney that left, and took over that membership.  A month ago I got my picture taken, all was well.  But each and every time I went there, they kept trying to charge...

Beef and Bean Salsa Chili

Beef and Bean Salsa Chili
Looking out my window this morning it’s lightly snowing, overcast.  If I didn’t know it was April, I would think it’s November!  Some of my blog friends have it worse.  Suzie had ice storms and Debbi and Carrie had snow storms and had to bring out their shovels again.  So I know I can’t complain too much, but I still want to whine just a...

Tony’s Fried Rice Video! (almost)

Tony’s Fried Rice Video! (almost)
I have to say, for it being a dreary, rainy overcast week, this week went by pretty fast for me – happy Friday!! One of my bosses favorite breakfasts I make for her is breakfast wontons.  I didn’t even know it until she said “remember the thing you made with the little cups and eggs?”  So breakfast wontons made the menu yesterday. If you haven’t...

Exercise Apps!

Exercise Apps!
Okay, seriously.  This weather has got to get better.  Storms, rain and high of 40 yesterday.  Right now its raining, dreary and dark.  I suppose I could handle the cold weather if it was just sunny outside. Yesterday’s breakfast was delicious – I made an egg white, habanero cheese, spinach wrap with a Pear Chobani on the side.  Normally I douse my food with hot...

Chobani Blueberry Vanilla Muffins

Poor Tony.  On mornings when I am running short on time, the kitchen looks like a mini tornado went through it.  I have no idea how I didn’t hear my alarm – I know I switched it from a CD to wake me up to the radio, but it was the same time.  All I know is that I had to pick up pies for...

It Seemed Like A Good Idea

It Seemed Like A Good Idea
This is going to be a super quick post.  I went to bed early last night and somehow slept late!  I have exactly 15 minutes before I have to leave for work – eek! First I want to thank all of you who commented and emailed me about my salsa!  Tony and I have a lot of research to do, but I appreciate all your...

Cherry Almond Yeast Bread

Cherry Almond Yeast Bread
Last night as Tony and I were finishing up watching Shameless (if you don’t watch that show, you really need to DVR it!) he looked over to me and said “you made some really good food this weekend.” Well that’s music to my ears because Tony doesn’t like half the stuff I make.  Like Chicken Tikka Masala, Zucchini Meatball Subs, and Sweet Potato and Black...
