Punky has been waiting patiently all week for brownie Sunday. So, I baked them last night, and Meeker woke up to a breakfast of champions. Sleepy, but content with the food set before him. Brownie I was a recipe sent to me by reader Alexa. She swore to me that she too was a very … Continue reading »

Brownie Monday
Look who is feeling better! In the kitchen, baking, and loving Day 1 of my spring break. I promise, that big belly underneath the apron isn’t all from chocolate consumption. In fact, I’m not so sure Baby Cakes even likes chocolate – my craving for it has been non-existent since month 3 of this pregnancy. … Continue reading »
Brownie Sunday
If you missed it last week, I challenged myself to make a from scratch brownie that Meeker likes better than boxed. Because I failed to make a better-than-boxed brownie last week, I had to try again today. I have dedicated Sundays to brownie baking until I win. Meeker is loving it. This week, I chose … Continue reading »
All the Food
I left for work during the most gorgeous sunrise, and drove home during a beautiful sunset. A perfect way to start and end the work day. In other news, I have had a few people ask me if I eat more than I post. In short – yes. I often snack while I’m teaching, so … Continue reading »
Balance
I wasn’t hungry for breakfast this morning, so guess what? I didn’t eat it. I just had coffee for breakfast. Even though there are 1000 people out there telling you to eat breakfast if you want to stay thin – you have to do what works for you. This morning, coffee worked for me. Usually … 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 »
How to have a good Sunday:
1. Wake up after 8:00am 2. Upon waking, go for a quick run. No more than 3 miles or else you’ll be starving during church. 3. Make a dinner-plate-sized-pancake for breakfast (this also helps with the mid-church hunger) ¼ cup whole wheat pastry flour 1 scoop protein powder 1 egg ½ tsp. baking powder 7 … Continue reading »
I love my food processor
Ahh, weekends are so nice. I did my share of relaxing/laying around today, and have managed to pepper in some wonderful food. Upon waking, I laid in bed for 45 minutes and read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. I’m only about 70 pages in, but I’m already intrigued. When I crawled out of bed, … Continue reading »
Happy New Year?
Happy Thursday! We’ve almost made it through the week! Thursday is my favorite day by FAR. I just love the anticipation of the weekend. I woke up, walked the pup, and then RUSHED to get out the door. I don’t know why I can’t ever make it out the door on time…seriously. I’m awake 3 … Continue reading »
Too Much Talking
I’ve been talking for about 12 hours straight, and I’m sick of my voice/thoughts. With that knowledge, here are my eats today… Overnight oats with protein powder, cocoa, yogurt, almond milk, chia seeds. Topped with coconut granola and peanut butter – still didn’t fill me up, silly oats. Veggie sandwich with Stacy’s pita chips Snacky … Continue reading »
