Party Pizza Friday – a bit different

Okay, so you know how I can eat the same things over and over again?  Well, somehow I thought I could get it past Tony that calzones are not really pizza!  He didn’t buy it! They turned out really good though! Kind of a leftover mix of ingredients!  Mine was broccoli, pepperoni, leftover parmesan chicken from the night before, pickled jalapenos and a few slices of garlic...

Wasn’t feelin it

I went downstairs to work out, but Ham Sandwich was there, and she was was watching some show on MTV and then flipping back and forth between America’s next top model with Tyra Banks.  But, first come picks the t.v. station, so what could I do? I only did 35 minutes on the elliptical and called it a day.  I was starting to get hungry...

Manga! and we weren’t last!

First off, Hannah and I got our postcards for our race and although we saw our results online, we saw that we didn’t come in last out of 99 racers! My friend Kim ran the race with us, and she made a good point after the race.  Yes, we are slow runners, but at the 1st and 2nd mile marker, both women asked do you...

I forgot

that I was getting lunch brought in for me for finishing up a couple projects at work, so my perfectly portioned lunch will have to wait until tomorrow. Lunch was being brought in from a Mexican restaurant, and at first glance, I panicked and didn’t know what I could get that would still keep me in check.  The other people invited were getting small things...

McDonald’s

Okay, I’ll admit it.  Before I started this blog, I may have stopped at McDonald’s on my way to work about once, or twice, OKAY sometimes three times a week.  Something about a scalding hot hash brown potato and a greasy sausage McMuffin with egg kind of set the right tone for the day! Tony would be in my car over the weekend, picking up empty...

Delish lunch, messy dinner

I used leftovers to make my stirfry at lunch today – the last of the grilled chicken, the rest of the tofu, and mixed veggies.  I also tried the Freekeh (sp?!) that I got from Trader Joe’s – the 100% young durham wheat that is to be used as a substitute for rice.  it was so good!  It was chewy, like wheatberries but had kind...

It’s never too early for snowmen

I am all for having a purpose of bringing out anything snowmen (I love them :D) so when the Blogger Secret Ingreident this week was CRANBERRIES I was so excited!   This week’s ingredient was suggested by: http://www.fitnessista.com/ Any kind, whole, dried, Craisins, you name it!  Which got me thinking about the holidays and possible gifts you could give to friends and co-workers.  So this is what I came...

Sunrise and Happy Birthday!

Today is my father-in-law’s birthday – Happy Birthday Carl!  If you could comment with a happy birthday to him, he’d get a kick out of it! This morning was perfect.  I decided to drive two miles from my house to take Ed on a walk at the preserve.  I am not sure if he was more excited about the car ride or new scenery!  I couldn’t pick...

C-food

It was seafood night tonight, although to be fair, I did wrap the shrimp in bacon!  I got the marinated ahi tuna from trader joe’s and grilled it on my indoor grill.  I did a quick marinade on the shrimp – a touch of olive oil, minced garlic, italian seasoning, and a splash of lemon juice. I cut 1 strip of bacon for me, and...
