It was a Great Day!

Wow, thanks for all of your comments on my last post!!  I have the best cheerleaders! 😀 What made yesterday a great day?  I brought these for my desk! And it was a re-run for breakfast! I realized that I never showed you what the inside of the roll looks like!  Yesterday I shredded 5 ounces of zucchini, squeezed it dry and added it to...

Fat Wednesday

I had a my quarterly doctor’s appointment with my endocronologist yesterday – it went great!  I had my blood work done and in a couple weeks I’ll know what my A1C is – anything under 7 is considered a controlled diabetic – I am shooting for 6! 😀  My doctor was especially happy with my blood sugar numbers! I know my friend Nicole would be especially...

Fat Tuesday

As soon as I walked into my office yesterday, someone had brought in two dozen of these: Does everyone know what these are?  They are heaven on a plate – it was paczki day yesterday!  This one happened to be filled with boston cream – I brought this one home for Tony and Hannah to share.  It wasn’t until someone linked in to my last...

Who’s Got Today Off?

That would be me!  I took the day off so Hannah and I could have lunch and go thrift shopping today!  She only has to work in the morning, then we are headed here for lunch and then thrift shopping!  Can’t wait! 😀 I swear I took a picture of my breakfast yesterday, but it disappeared – but any faithful readers will be glad to...

Party Pizza Friday is Back!

Whew – two weeks in a row without party pizza Friday!  I didn’t even ask Tony what he wanted for dinner – I only asked him what he wanted on his side of the pizza! 😀 Last weekend I baked a bunch of potatoes to make potato skins for the Superbowl.  We never ended up making them with everything else we had, so I’ve enjoyed...

200,000+ Views = Awesome Giveaway!

Wow!  Now I know that number isn’t big to some blogs, but it is to me! 😀  In fact, last February, Tony did a guest post for hitting my 40,000 view – it took me nearly seven months to get that number, and now I’ve gotten 160,000 since then! One thing that pushed me to start this blog (other than my sister copying my recipes...

Chicken Parm = Delicious Comfort Food

Chicken Parm = Delicious Comfort Food
So after all the snow it was nice to wake up to sunny skies this morning.   What I am not thrilled about is the temps!   Right now it is 5 degrees outside, with a windchill that makes it feel like -2.  It’s days like these that I really don’t miss my commute to Chicago! 😀 Yesterday’s breakfast kind of looks like dog food, but trust...

Impromptu Beer and Bacon

I guess in total we maybe got 9 inches of snow?   Our gazebo looks so naked and sad: Breakfast was more overnight oats, 1 oz. granola and 1/2 a container of 0% Chobani – I was surprised how long this kept me full – probably because of the added protein of the yogurt? Yesterday’s lunch was inspired by Mari!  The other day she made a...
