What a big, beautiful, lazy Sunday! I got things done, but it was 90% on the computer, so I felt pretty lazy most of the day. I fueled with a different kind of Sunday breakfast. Instead of pancakes, muffins or some savory delight, we went with a breakfast that looked like dessert – frozen fruit ...

The Highlights
Hey hey! Today was a mix of productive, relaxing, boring and fun. The highlights? Waking up late to the sound of rain and realizing we can just stay in bed for a while if that’s what we wanted to do. :)
Loaded Mashed Potato Bowl
I remember seeing a commercial for some mashed potato bowl at some fast food place. I think it was KFC and I think it probably included mashed potatoes, fried chicken, gravy, maybe corn kernals? I suppose you could say dinner was based off of that, except mine was better, healthier, not fried and ...
That’s Whack!
What’s whack? The fact that I’m able to do a separate LUNCH post today, which I haven’t done in ages! I kept it easy peasy – leftover 7 Bean & Barley Soup with rosemary bread toast.
Bagel Friday!
T.G.I.F. Enough said. After yesterday’s admission, y’all should know why I’m excited for today. ;) Breakfast involved some leftovers from work last night that I happily took home to put to good use – Publix Multigrain Bagels! These bagels are whole grain, HFCS-free and pack eleven grams of protein in one bagel. Not ...

Nerdy Admission
Good morning! Three cheers for THURSDAY! Today is my Friday so I am ready to get today over and done with! Not for the reasons you think, though. I’m about to make an admission that qualifies me as a huge nerd. I’m excited because I do most of my school work and studying ...
Tribal Moose
Hey y’all! So who besides me is so glad we’re finally on the downhill of the week? I woke up this morning (in 10 minute cycles starting at 4:30…why?!?) and I was having the hardest time believing it was Wednesday and not Thursday. It still feels like a Thursday! Maybe it’s because I don’t have ...
Time Machine
Hey hey! Today was full of all sorts of different “times”. Like snack time! Tazo Green Ginger Tea, a serving of baby carrots and a blood orange. And water! ...
The Ugly
Good morning friends! Thanks for such an awesome discussion on Calorie Counting yesterday! I truly appreciate the time that everyone took to contribute their own thoughts. If you haven’t checked out the comments, do! I’ll be replying to more comments later this afternoon. The general consensus is that calorie counting is a personal choice ...
