I’ve posted about this before, but when Meeker and I were first married – I pretty much thought Rachael Ray’s 30-minute meal cookbook was the only thing I’d ever need. I made this soup weekly. While I don’t really love making a hot soup in the middle (end?) of August – Meeker requested it this … Continue reading »

Look who’s back.
After almost a month with no real appetite…it’s back! As it turns out, feeding this little nugget ten times a day takes some extra calories. Bring it on. One of my family’s dearest friends came up to meet Adrienne today, and brought me some delicious chocolate chip cookies (thanks Leigh!) – and that kick started … Continue reading »
Messy
Happy best-day-of-the-week to you! Hope your Thursdays went (are going) swimmingly! Breakfast Grape Nuts (love!) with coconut milk and blackberries Lunch/Snacks I just snacked all day long – didn’t ever really sit down for lunch. In that cute little apple bag… Carrots and celery. That were dipped into peanut butter. So dang. When I got … Continue reading »
Let’s go bowling.
Thanks for all of your sleeping suggestions! It looks like I need to get myself some sort of pregnancy pillow to snuggle with until my little bundle of joy arrives. I didn’t even know such a thing existed until last night! The good news is that I slept soundly (with a few bathroom trips) until … Continue reading »
Snug
My day went pretty much according to plan…I scrubbed, vacuumed, and straightened for 4 hours this morning, and once the house was spic and span – I promptly ate lunch, then took a nap. Onion bagel with avocado and toffuti cream cheese – Panini pressed Spinach, red peppers, cranberries, walnuts, cucumber and dressing made from … Continue reading »
I say ‘no’ to oats.
The problem with oats… Is that they make me hungrier then I was before I ate them. I know I’ve been through this before – but every few months, I try them again – and without fail, I finish the bowl feeling famished. This bowl should have done the trick: banana, sweet potato, ½ cup … Continue reading »
Laze
It was bound to happen. Since school ended, I have been rather productive…but today I donned my lazy pants. It started out well. I woke up before 7, ran 6 miles, went to Bible study, had lunch with the husband/in-laws…then when I got home – NOTHING. I fell asleep while reading. Then woke up and … Continue reading »
Fresh and Fruity
Hello! This day was so sweet. It started with a breakfast con Meeker and my parents. I’m always starving immediately upon waking, and my parents were still an hour away, so I had some trail mix to hold me over. Then we headed to a place called Great Beginnings Cafe. When the weather gets warm, … Continue reading »
A Cruel Joke

Last night I combined: 1/3 cup oats, 1/3 cup milk, 1/3 cup mashed sweet potato, ½ cup greek yogurt This morning I added: almonds, cinnamon, Kashi Autumn … Continue reading »
Google It Up
I started this morning with a lot of moving. At 5:00am I walked the dog. At 6:00am I did some weight lifting, and at 7:00am I walked to school. The morning was so pleasant that I just didn’t want to stop enjoying it. However, lots of moving leads to lots of hunger. One egg, salsa, … Continue reading »
