I am so f***in’ tired…..

   I feel ready for bed and it’s only 8:15!! It seems like since I started eating healthier, I’ve been getting tired a lot earlier in the evenings. But there’s always laundry to be done and hyper kids to corral…. dinner was interesting tonight… long story short, I cooked two complete dinners (the normal thrill of pretending to be a Chef didn’t really help much tonight). I made a lovely salmon fillet for me and hubby, which he refused to eat after one bite, asking “where’s the crackers and why is it not in a pattie form?” The kids didn’t even think it was funny that I suggested they try the salmon. They asked very nicely for tacos.

gotta go help Nate with homework….see you in the morning!

   “Hey Beautiful…how are you?”

….Well, mum and dad were here for lunch.

What I’ve had so far today:

Breakfast: Orange/Pummelo/Lime Smoothie;   2 Eggs

Lunch: Meatloaf, Mashed Potatoes made with Sour Cream and Butter, Sauteed Asparagus with Green Onions, Salad of Baby Greens with Olive Oil/Red Wine Vinegar Dressing

   “Good Morning!”

 Oh yeah, I promised to report on how the “crunchy-salty-healthy(?) snack turned out last night:    It was terrific! I only wish I had measured ingredients and counted the calories as I made it. It is so simple! Here’s the recipe: (I’m guessing at the measurements)

                  3 cups Shredded Wheat and Bran Bisquits (I think it was Post brand)

                  4 Tbsp. Olive Oil + 1 Tbsp. Butter

                   1 tsp. Sea Salt + 1 tsp. Seasoned Salt (or whatever seasonings you like)

             Heat oil and butter together in Dutch Oven type pan until butter is melted - stir in

            seasonings. Add Cereal bisquits and toss to coat. Put into 9×13 pan and bake at 250

            degrees for One Hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Enjoy!!!
