I want to be a housewife. Today was perfection. Since I had the day off of school, I got laundry done, worked out, cleaned, grocery shopped, baked cookies, walked the dog. It was all fantastic. I started the day by making pancakes for my husband. I also nibbled on a couple while I was making … Continue reading »

She ate the chocolate chips I left in the bowl Plus coffee Taco salad for lunch Last week, I saw Angie bake her tortilla at 400* for 20 … Continue reading »
The Perfect Excuse
Happy Valentine’s Day! If you live in Colorado, you woke up to a blizzard – the perfect excuse to snuggle with your dog, cats and husband by the fire. Also the perfect excuse to stay inside and bake something yummy. (Let’s be honest, I don’t ever need an excuse to bake). If you don’t live … Continue reading »
Taco and Tea
Happy Saturday! I’m feeling much more vibrant than I was while writing my last post. For lunch, I made a taco salad I started with a handful of tortilla chips (on the bottom) and then piled the lettuce high. On top of that went lean ground beef, black bans, salsa, and a little cheddar. Halfway … Continue reading »
Sleep, overrated
I’ve never been a big sleeper. I love getting to sleep in on the weekends, but it’s not a necessity for me. With that being said, I woke up at 2am this morning. In my defense, I went to bed at 9pm. I got out of bed like a hungry bear in the wee hours … Continue reading »
Gilad
Breakfast was another cereal mash – but with a warm change, suggested by the sweets goddess. How sweet it was. First, I microwaved one tbs. almond butter, ¼ cup unsweetened applesauce, and 1 tbs. cocoa powder. Then, I poured cereal (Kashi – Honey Sunshine and puffed rice) and then mixed and mashed. Unfortunately, like Tuesday, … Continue reading »
Simple Pleasures
Breakfast was simple and kept me full for 4.5 hours. Yum-diddy. I actually wasn’t even too hungry for lunch, so I only had half of what I packed. A salad and trail mix. Lettuce, celery, carrots, black beans, hummus I always love trail mix. Always. Then around 4:30, I got hungry for the rest of … Continue reading »
Girly Night
After yesterday’s oats disaster, I decided to go the overnight route for this morning. Guys, this tasted like apple pie! It was so good, and too easy. Last night I combined: 1/3 cup rolled oats 1/3 cup milk 1/3 cup plain yogurt 1/3 cup unsweetened applesauce Cinnamon This morning I added: 1 tbs. almond butter … Continue reading »
Coloring Major
It’s still snowing. Just wanted to let you know. Driving was a little scary, but I made it (white knuckled the whole time). Because of indoor recess, my lunchtime was cut in half. I ate this quickly… 3 ribs of celery, chopped 2 carrots, shredded 1 cup black beans Salsa Hummus Garlic Salt With some … Continue reading »
Messy Monday
First of all, it’s snowing like crazy right now. And I don’t have a delay or a closure or anything. I’m a little terrified of the drive into work – but it’s only about a mile, so I’m sure I will make it. Second, I started to make oatmeal after my workout, I put extra, … Continue reading »
