With Hannah’s concert tonight, I went the easy route and picked up pizza on the way home.   That way we didn’t have to rush around, and, turns out, I had lasagna on the menu and didn’t make it ahead of time! And I was REALLY hungry after spilling half my lunch on the floor!  But I managed not to spill my spinach salad! Hannah finished...

I went down to give blood, waited 35 minutes after my scheduled appointment, and couldn’t wait any longer – too many deadlines today. Hannah has her last chorus concert of the year, so I’ll be posting dinner after that – see you!

When I was putting together my breakfast and lunch this morning, I saw that I still had a small container of pickled jalapenos, so I decided to make my version of huevos rancheros, which is simply adding pickled jalapenos to my cheesy eggs – so original, right??!! 😀 1 corn tortilla 1/2 cup egg whites 1 real egg .5 ounce cheddar cheese 6 ounces honeydew...

we are gearing up for some big storms tonight!  I am a scaredy cat when it comes to storms.  The first sign of stormy weather I am the first one with my glass of red wine to sit downstairs with the radio tuned in to see when its going to hit.  Tony, on the other hand, will get into the car and drive closer to...

The remotes again were mysteriously missing today in the office gym, but together, my friend and I were able to get the dvr going AND switch to Dish t.v. when we were done!   Being remote control/electronically challenged, this was a huge victory for me! So I did level 1 of 30 day shred with weights, and then 15 minutes or walk/jog/sprint.   I tested my blood sugar...

It’s overcast and rainy, which made me stay in bed until the last second!  But within 25 minutes I was able to shower, make my breakfast, put my lunch together, fold a load of laundry, feed the dog and get out the door – not too bad! I have to give Hannah props for finding the bagels that are so good!  She did find them...

Me of all people didn’t realize that tonights season finale was THREE HOURS LONG!  So in order to bank some time on the dvr, I ended up taking Ed for a 30 minute walk and then mopped the kitchen floor – then I couldn’t stand it anymore!  So in between fast forwarding the show I am squeezing in this post! I had a ton of...

My friend Renee and I went downstairs to do Shred today, only to find out there were NO REMOTES!  No dish remote, t.v. or dvd! But its gorgeous outside today, so we took a 40 minute walk – it was so refreshing!  And we talked the whole way, so it went by fast! 😀 When I put my lunch into www.calorieking.com, it only came in...

Tony bought me bagels for our Mother’s Day breakfast, but I had plenty on my plate with his Mexican bake so I passed.  OMG, these are so good! The best part is the nutrition! 170 calories 2 grams of fat 37 grams of carbs 8 grams of fiber! 9 grams of protein Breakfast comes in at 361 calories, 8 grams of fat and 41 carbs. ...

I think this is in the top ten list of Tony’s favorite dinners, and growing up may have had a version of this at least once a week.  I just don’t think to make it that often!   I am using the leftover flank steak from our dinner on Saturday – our leftovers weighed in at just under 1 pound!   2 teaspoons plus 1 tablespoon canola...
