Dangerous

This is what happens when you let a teenager take over the kitchen

and cook anything he can get his grubby little hands on….

An Angel food cake that stuck to the pan, deflated and fell to pieces!

It still tasted good though :)

And this is what happens when a large part of the country is dealing with devastating weather…..

You see weird clouds and snap pictures of it

because that is what everyone else is doing!

Nothing happened here in Florida.

It just caught my attention just as the sun when down the other night.

My phone doesn’t do it justice though,

because the sky was very orange and pink for a while.

I am praying for all of the families affected by these horrendous storms that lost lives and homes

I am so scatter brained lately.

This is wall art in our town displaying my scatteredness….

Which explains my ability to make up words like scatteredness!

I haven’t really cooked, which has me all moody and emotional about staying fit and healthy.

I haven’t been able to run going on my second week now, which just adds fuel to the fire.

My husband says “LIG” it! HA ~ Let it go!

I think I will.

Until I think about it again and the cycle repeats itself.

More recipes next week when I reinvent myself and start a new day!

I have a huge “I wanna try this one” pile.

I might pull one or two out of the hat if I can muster up the ability to chop some veggies and edit some photos.

Have a great rest of the week.

Who’s there?

 
This is as random as snow in May but do you ever wonder what you dog (if you even have a dog?) does on the other side of the door just before you walk in?
Well if my dog thinks he is hearing the garage open when my husband comes home, he couldn’t get his nose any closer to the door if he wanted to!
 
I apologize that the picture is grainy and he is just about to turn around and catch me in the act so its blurry too and I took in on my phone which adds an even bigger problem! But you get the picture right?
lol, picture! sometimes I cwack myself up!
This was a day where he “thought” daddy was coming in and it just never happened :(
 
So he just laid there feeling defeated and exhausted from the potential excitement!
Thank you for all of the new follows I will be returning the love and following you all back ;-)!

Menu Monday

For the first time in forever, I didn’t cook a holiday meal on a holiday (gasp!). We had Chinese food for lunch/dinner. After a long day at church we decided to go out and let someone else clean up the mess, HA! I know it wasn’t the most traditional or healthiest of choices but hey, it happens!

So here is what I plan for the rest of my, again busy as ever, week. I also might be rolling over some meals I haven’t cooked yet.

Monday – Tacos ~ 2pts

Tuesday – Citrus Tilapia with Asparagus ~ 0pts

Wednesday – Chicken Pitas with Tzatziki ( I will have to add this one when I get the recipe) ~ not sure on points because I don’t have the full recipe yet

Thursday – Either Vegetable Lasagna or a Frozen Lasgana, either way we are having lasagna! with a nice side salad. ~ This is unknown too but will add points when I know.

Friday – Pizza Night or Leftovers whichever works out ~ 4pts for 1 thin crust slice of cheese pizza

Saturday – Either a birthday party to attend or a fish fry with company!

Not the healthiest of weeks but they come around from time to time. The main goal is to stick to healthy foods the majority of the week. Makin a curve in the road a time or two is no reason to fall off of the wagon. Stay in the driver’s seat and you will get there soon enough.

**I’ve had a few people ask about my point system. Keep in mind that is is NOT the current weight watchers point scale. It is similar to the new points plus but is the system that I was tested with. The points are similar but not the same so if you are using the Points Plus system you might have to readjust your numbers.

Have a great week everyone!
