Last night I made a spaghetti squash, cut it in half, doused it in Meeker’s homemade tomato sauce, added some chees and feasted after a long day. This was the most yummy thing.
Breakfast was coffee and a handful of frosted mini [...]

The broccoli-love continued with lunch.
Lunch was 1 head of broccoli (roasted last night) with cottage cheese, and about ½ cup of stuffing from a box. Not a typical food (the stuffing) for me, but very good nonetheless.
The broccoli-love continued with dinner.

It is spirit week at my school, and today is lazy day! That means that I am wearing sweatpants and a sweatshirt to work today. I vote for all Mondays to be like this.

1 egg on the left, hot sauce on the right. When I put them together, the yolk [...]

Well…if that is the case, I am about 5 minutes from turning into a giant head of broccoli. I just can’t get enough of the green goodness.
The most [...]

I have said (about a million times) how much I rely on routine to keep my sanity. But today I tried something new.
Pre-Run Meal:
And then had to hang out for a while before heading out the door for my 10 miles – which were very good! It was easy this morning, and I enjoyed [...]

Meeker found a good kickboxing workout on instant Netflix for me this morning. The original plan was to ride the bike, but it was pouring rain. Oh well. Plan B ended up being enjoyable.
I was starving after exercise and shower. I scrambled downstairs to hurriedly make a bowl of goodness.
Cottage cheese, a peach, grapes, cinnamon, [...]

I have a teacher in-service day tomorrow, so it might as well be a Friday! I love teaching and being with the kiddos, but a day without them at school is pretty much a day off.
In honor of my favorite day of the week, I ate my favorite stand-by meals all day.
Lunch:
2/3 cup cottage cheese
Dollop [...]

It’s no secret…I’m a snacker. I love snacks – it gives me more to look forward to during the day, and then it usually prevents me from gorging myself at dinner. However, today was pretty snack-less, and I came home with the desire to have a proper sit-down meal.
Salad. Sweet Potato. Pork Chop. Corn.
The pork [...]
