Hellooooo and Happy Wednesday! I can genuinely say today has been a good day despite the overwhelming morning/afternoon I had at the office. Sometimes it feels like everyone decides to call me all at the same time with something that needed to be fixed yesterday. Luckily I plowed through it all like a champ! This [...]

Today was a typically busy Tuesday. Work was bustling, there is tons going on at home, and applying for jobs in Tampa has become like a part time job. I was definitely in comfort food mode by the time I wiggled my feet into my Hello Kitty slippers! Since last week’s cheese-less pasta left something to be [...]

A couple weeks ago the hubs and I had a house full of people coming over for movie night. Normally I have a difficult time cooking to all tastes- Some love rich foods, some love low cal foods, some are pro meat and others pro veggie etc. So, I sat down to come up with a [...]

So after a long day in class I wanted to make a really easy dinner. It doesn’t get much easier than spaghetti and garlic bread. For tonight’s sauce I used 99% fat free ground turkey breast, onions, peppers, carrots, squash, and garlic. I let all of this simmer together while I got in a quick workout [...]

I was a bit of a mess when I got up this morning. The time change always has me feeling “weird” for a few days and my groggy self had trouble coming to terms with the fact that I had to get up and head into the office. I decided that I needed to give [...]

I am pretty sure things with fun or fancy names taste better. For example, I could have called tonight’s dinner open faced egg sandwiches with amaretto berries. Instead, I decided to use the term Croque Madames with boozy berry parfaits. A fun name for a fun (and easy) dinner! The first thing I did is [...]
