It’s 4:15 and I am just sitting down!   The day started with our weekly trip to the CSA – and the bounty this week was really good!  I have to sort through it, so I’ll post what I got at dinner. Hannah didn’t want to go to the farm, but wanted to meet us for breakfast.  We told her to leave 15 minutes after we...

I was so disappointed with dinner, I nearly cried.   While it looked really pretty, it didn’t turn out AT ALL!  Back to the drawing board on this one!  So while I was feeling sorry for myself over a horrible dinner, I just had to think of my friend Jen, who lost her Mom a week ago today in a car accident, and I quickly had...

I am normally all by myself at the gym, but lately there is this old guy there that doesn’t know how to use the machines OR the remotes.  So I walk in, and he’s pressed EVERY button of every remote and can’t get the t.v. on.  I asked if he needed help, because I actually did figure out how to use the remotes, and as I...

I should probably call this breakfast “leftover” hash!   I had 8 ounces of red potatoes and decided to make a hash out of them.  I diced up the potatoes, added 1.5 ounces chopped canadian bacon, 1 small sweet pepper (my tiny colored peppers turned out to be sweet!) a couple tablespoons diced pickled jalapenos, 1/2 ounce reduced fat swiss lorraine and generous dashes of Tabasco....

I planned my farmers market visit about an hour after it opened.  I was pissed because the cheese stand was far from being opened, and she seemed to not care in the least that people were standing, waiting for cheese!  She must be a “worker” and by that I mean doesn’t give a shit about the cheese lovers!   So while I had every intention of...

Hannah totally lucked out – the woman she had a fender bender with called today to let me know that the damage to her car only $49.52!   Hannah had visions of how empty her bank account was going to look after depleting it to pay for  the repair – happily $50 is only a tiny dent!  (get the pun!) Lunch was AMAZING if I do...

Seriously, this summer has been the best weather wise – I think we’ve turned on our central air only twice this whole summer!  Although this weekend is supposed to be in the mid-90’s, so I am going to enjoy these next couple days. I had to go with spicy oats again, and this time I REALLY added a lot of hot sauce – so spicy...

I almost forgot to pick a winner to my first day of the month giveaway!  So without further delay!

First off, thanks for all your well wishes about Hannah’s fender bender.  What I failed to preface that story with is the fact that the VERY FIRST time I drove by myself, I tore the whole front bumper off of my parents station wagon.  I said I wanted to take the car to the library.  I thought if I “drove” by the library and went...

Hannah got into her first fender bender this morning – nothing major – she said she was pulling up at a stop light and her foot slipped and she hit the gas instead of the brake, thus bumping the driver in front of her. Luckily no one was hurt, and that’s the important thing!  I didn’t feel right about asking her to bring me my...
