Who Went Spinning This Morning?

Yeah, that’s right – me!   I got up at 6:25, was out the door by 6:40 (after letting the dog out and saying goodbye to Hannah) and I got to the gym.  Now, this gym does not have spin classes, but they do have a spin bike.  I ended up alternating between 5 minutes of sprints to 5 minutes of hill climbs for 45 minutes!...

Snow Melted!

Lunch today was a turkey pastrami in a light bun with baked ruffles and the rest of my tortilla soup from yesterday.  The soup pics turned out horrible, but the sammie turned out good! So for dinner I made chicken parmesan.  No real recipe, but tonight I brushed on egg whites before dipping the chicken in seasoned panko bread crumbs and it worked really well....

Soup and Sammie

I forgot my camera cord (switched bags over the weekend!) so I’ll post lunch with dinner.  All you need to know is this made my sammie! But I do have some other news!  Check out Meghann’s blogging bake sale going on today!  She’s almost reached her goal for her distance marathon!! Mariposa at What Do I Eat Now? is having a great giveaway – lots...

April?? Really??!!

They were predicting 2 – 4 inches in our area, so I guess I am glad we only got this much.  But usually when we get snow this late, we don’t get much of a spring and the next thing you know its 85 degrees! I bought some extra sharp cheddar so you know what that means – apple cheddar sammie!  Today’s breakfast 1.25 ounce Italian...

Pizza Burger . . .

I threw dinner together pretty quickly, and decided to ditch the zucchini and make dinner simple.   But first I have to show you Nurse Hannah’s work:  I cut my finger with a sharp knife while cleaning up – do you have any idea how hard it is to type without one finger?? So my burger was 2 ounces ground sirloin, 2 ounces bulk Italaian sausage,...

Sunday Morning Grocery Shopping

is the best!  I was out of the house by 7:50 and it was so nice to be able to take my time, see all the produce, but not feel like I was getting in someones way!!  But last night I did have two six ounce glasses of wine – from Walmart of all places!  It wasn’t too bad! I woke up this morning with...

BBQ Pork Chops, Scalloped Potatoes and Cocoa Nibs??

Before I get onto food, I have to show you my cute shoes I got at the thrift store – Ann Taylor no less for $5!  Um, speaking of hand weights to do Jillian at home, guess who did Level 2 today (albeit the “Anita” or beginner side) of Jillian today!  Yep – me!  I have to say the walking push-ups and the oblique planks...

Busy Day!

I did get the walk in with Ed!   We only went the 1.6 mile loop, because he hasn’t walked this far in a while, and I do have to remember that he’s getting older!  But the walks help him out so much, even if he is spent the rest of the day! So Hannah and I went to: Walgreens to pick up my glucose test strips...

Mama Rini’s . . .

I’ve always loved going out to breakfast, maybe even more than going out to dinner!  Not only can you choose  from a million different items at diners  – its also the cheapest meal to eat out! My omelet was just okay – I ate about half of it.  The broccoli was very crispy – almost raw tasting, so I picked most of that off.  And I didn’t specify...
