Whew…wild day at work!! Another fun-filled, non-stop day. Busy, busy,busy (and that’s not a bad thing). I’m sure tomorrow will be more of the same, lots to do. I ate fairly well today, but didn’t eat enough veggies. Did get in plenty of fruit, so that’s at least one good thing. I bought an acorn [...]

I had completely forgotten how truly tasty this meal is until I was browsing recipes at SparkRecipes.com. When I came across this one I knew this was what I was going to prepare for my lunch for work for the first part of the work week. Because this recipe is so basic I already had [...]

I did a little cooking today…had some adventures with zucchini…found a way to make fried zucchini (and probably other veggies would work as well, mushrooms, eggplant, green tomatoes)in the oven with no oil…yea me!! I walked for about half an hour this morning…unfortunately that’s all the exercise I managed to get in. I’m a little disappointed [...]

My first day of vacation was pleasant. I had to run across town to go pick up my contacts and decided to head into Target while I was in the neighborhood. I picked up a few things that were on sale, then came back home. I didn’t do a lot at home today. I figured I’d [...]

I felt much more rested today and was able to get a lot more done over the course of the day. I went out a little after 6 am for a walk…it was still terribly hot and humid, came home just a bit sweaty. But it was much nicer at 6 am than it was [...]

As with most gardens, there are some hits and some misses. Some things in my garden are performing wonderfully. I’ve got plenty of cucumbers… Only one pepper plant has actually produced any peppers so far, although the jalapeno plant is now blooming, my fault, I transplanted it late. The zucchini plant has taken over… See [...]

I hope everyone had a great holiday today. I had to work, but it wasn’t bad. We only had a few people working (it was a short day, closed at 6 instead of 9), but everyone had fun and got a lot of work done at the same time…nice. I had a really good eating [...]

I finally made it to our local farmers market this morning. I have every other weekend off work and it seems like it’s always either raining or I’ve got other plans. But today I got up early, gathered my totes, put on comfortable shoes and made my way down town. I got there just a [...]

Wow…all of the rain we’ve had this year has caused an explosion in my container garden…well, okay, not exactly an explosion (thankfully), but the plants continue to grow like crazy…over running the small patio outside my kitchen. When I heard the mowers early this morning, I knew I was going to have to do something [...]

Okay, I know this isn’t the first time I’ve said this, but I really am going to work at regaining my health and fitness…and that begins today. I’m going to do some form of exercise every day, even if for only 10 minutes. That is to get me back in the habit of exercising regularly. After [...]
