It’s A Wonderful Life

It’s A Wonderful Life
Thank you so much for the anniversary wishes!!  We had a great day.  Hannah’s been babysitting for a family all week so I woke up to a note “the coffee is fresh!”  Love that 😀   Since I had time, I decided to make breakfast nachos again.  Since I know I’ll be making these a lot, I put them in the recipe builder on eTools! Breakfast...

Happy 10th Anniversary Tony!

Happy 10th Anniversary Tony!
Ten years ago this morning I woke up and married my best friend!  I can’t believe it’s been ten years already.  It’s weird, but I must have been one of the few girls growing up that never really thought of my wedding day.  I didn’t have a binder of colors for bridesmaid dresses, or stacks of pictures of wedding dresses.  All I knew when I...

Most Disturbing and I Can.

Most Disturbing and I Can.
Yeah, that’s right.  My sweater won most disturbing in our office ugly sweater contest!  What would be even more disturbing is if I were 42, living in my Mom’s basement with lots of cats 😀 And the valuable prize I won was I appetizer tray with a knife that lights up: I had an idea about breakfast that I wasn’t sure would work or not. ...

Weekend Recap and First WW Weigh In!

Weekend Recap and First WW Weigh In!
I had errands to run on Saturday morning, and a couple of the stores and post office didn’t open until 9, so I decided to go to the 8:00 a.m. WW meeting.  I am actually enjoying getting up early on Saturday!  It wasn’t until I got there that I realized that the meeting didn’t start until 8:30, so after I weighed in, I went a...

NFL and MMA vs. Cooking and Singing

It’s so funny when I think how diverse our television show watching is.   Since it was Thursday night last night, that meant an NFL game.  Double bonus was that mixed martial arts was on another channel, so when the football game got boring, he would just switch back and forth.  Tony was in heaven! Me?  I made a pot of pasta fagioli (I just did...

I love to show my love through food . . .

When I was making the beef stew the other day, I reached into my potato bag and pulled that out!  I left this note for Tony Tuesday morning.  While I immediately thought it looked like a heart, I won’t even bring up what it reminded Tony of!  Now all of you get your head out of the gutters! Since Joe’s visit was a surprise, it...

Best. Surprise. Ever.

I don’t nearly use my crock pot as often as I should.  I mean, what’s easier than putting your dinner together before work and then coming home to hardly any prep for dinner?  So yesterday morning I made beef stew, and added a half a head of chopped cauliflower for more veggies.  😀 Breakfast was an oldie but a goodie – Biz’ breakfast sammie!  1...

38:17!

It was so cold yesterday.  When I left the house the air temperature was 7 but it felt like – 5.  So I definitely wore a coat yesterday!  The only problem when its that cold is that it takes our office hours to warm up.  I filled up my big glass of ice water and was just about shivering with every sip. I finally went...

Turns Out . . . I eat too much.

I believe if Tony could have bet if I was going to get up early Saturday morning to go to Weight Watchers, the over/under would be that I would oversleep – look at the clock and say “shit” then roll over and go back to sleep.  Because sleeping in is my thing 😀 But guess what?  I got up at 6:15 a.m., was in the...

Feisty!

Wow – I was overwhelmed with the response from my last post.  It makes me think that I am not the only one who gets unsolicited advice!  All I know is if anyone puts Biz in a corner, I have a posse backing me up! (insert Dirty Dancing reference here!) 😀 That being said, I’ve officially decided to join Weight Watchers! The location near me...
