You want fries with that shake?

Source Started the day off shaking at World Beat. Live drummers, yelling, international dance stylesโ€ฆLove. First, I had some toast and eggs with salsa and took a Pure Bar with me for afterwards. The interesting thing about World Beat is that it isnโ€™t pre-choreographed, like Zumba or Dance Trance. Each song is a particular rhythm…

Making and breaking habits

It was a quiche kinda night over here. It took me about 18 years of life to learn that quiche starts with a โ€œq.โ€ ๐Ÿ˜‰ The Pilot came home from work, and I wanted to make something quick and easy so we could hang out a little bit before being sucked into our respective laptops.…

Freedom to move

Guess whoโ€™s in the clear?? Source At my midwife appointment today, she told me Iโ€™m โ€œfree to do whatever I was doing before.โ€ Music to my ears. Even though Iโ€™m still recovering, I feel great and am excited to get back into the things I love. Iโ€™m so excited to take a Zumba class this…

Mental health day

I think itโ€™s pretty apparent from reading the blog that the Pilot works a lot, and works extremely hard. Even when heโ€™s home on the weekends, heโ€™s been working on house stuff (lots of master bedroom, office and nursery furniture assembly lately) since we moved in. He had a couple of extra days off work…

Sugar buzz

Iโ€™m still sugar-buzzed from last night.   (GF ones in the middle, regular on the sides) Of course, the ones we messed up were dubbed โ€œeatersโ€ ๐Ÿ˜‰ Everyone came over here to decorate the sugar cookies that mom, nana and I made the other night. Before our friends came over, I rolled out the dough…

Outside the tortilla

Last nightโ€™s enchiladaโ€™s were a little different than the usual chicken or veg that Iโ€™ll make. Iโ€™ll usually serve them with rice and beans, but last night the rice and beans were inside the enchiโ€™s <โ€”an idea I got from my โ€œCooking for Isaiahโ€ cookbook In all my years of enchiladas, Iโ€™d never tried them…

Red and green quinoa lentil salad

Iโ€™m going to go ahead and blame my tiredness on the weather.   46* and raining all day. Thatโ€™s gotta be it. Almost every day this week, around 6 pm, Iโ€™ve hit a wall. Iโ€™ve done a pretty good job fighting through it, but as far as cooking/dinner goes, itโ€™s been a little rough. Lots…

This is what it looks like.. when a refrigerator cries I scraped the…
