Spaetzle!

Spaetzle!
I decided to have yet another taco burrito for breakfast, not the best picture, but it’s so good! I only ate the strawberries in this fruit cup – the others weren’t very good.  I realize now that when I buy the pre-cut fruit, I really need to eat it within the first couple of days. Lunch was more of my Chicken Tikka Masala.  Um, pretty...

Old School

I started out with my typical breakfast sammie on Thomas’ Everything bagel thin.  I cannot tell you how much I love these – all the flavor of a bagel, but without all the calories!  I had another orange on the side from my $1 bin, but this was more of a juice orange than a navel orange, so it made it a little more difficult...

Weeknight Surf and Turf!

I lucked out on my $1 rack at my grocery store with 6 navel oranges for $1 – this one was so flavorful!! On the side I had 1/2 cup egg white scrambled with baby spinach, 1 tablespoon of real bacon bits and 1 oz. 75% reduced fat cheddar cheese, rolled up in a low carb/high fiber wrap. Breakfast held me pretty well – probably...

Slight problem.

Sunday night Maxi was putting together a power point presentation of typical foods that German’s eat.  One of the slides caught my interest because it said that their main meal is in the middle of the day, usually a hot meal, and that they only have small snacks around dinner time. Yesterday there was a welcome breakfast at school, and after school (Hannah gets out...

BSI – Asparagus

I started putting our breakfast together – corned beef hash and was able to take one picture before my camera died! I diced up the potato and remaining corned beef from St. Patty’s Day.  With an egg white scramble and a piece of toast: Hannah had to work yesterday and Maxi’s main goal was to sleep in as long as possible!  Mission accomplished – she...

Thanks for all the Birthday Wishes!

I loved reading all your memorable birthdays! 😀  I actually had a really busy day at work yesterday, but it made the day go by fast.  My eats were pretty boring! Breakfast was an egg white scramble with ham and cheese and un-photographed strawberries. Lunch was leftover pasta from the night before – but I added a link of this sausage – I loved it! ...

Happy Birthday to Me and Two Peas in a Pod!

I am not going to lie, I was a nervous wreck before picking up our exchange student!  Would she like us?  Would she feel comfortable?  Is this the longest period of time being away from her parents? My anxious feelings were quickly washed away when I saw her walk through the airport doors, she spotted Hannah and gave her a hug!  They have been corresponding...

Queen of the Magic Eraser

Okay, I may have had a Hannah night last night – I could not stop cleaning in anticipation of our exchange student Maxime coming today!  Think spring cleaning X 10!  Now, we keep things pretty orderly on a regular basis – I have Tony to thank for that because left to my own accord, things tend to pile up around me – but he keeps...

107?

Yep, me – the one that was on a bowling league and routinely bowled a 220?  My high score last night was 107!  We had such a great time! First I started off with Katie’s migas – although I modified it a bit for one serving and for what I had on hand.  I really loved the corn tortilla with the eggs! First I started...
