...just until after the games today. Good morning! A rainy forecast ahead today with a soccer game this morning and a football game in the evening. Humm... So, whats on your schedule for today? Coffee with sugar in the raw and soymilk.... Oh, I have started my annual tight, barky cough that usually turns into bronchitis. Any hot advice as how to loosen the cough before it does get worse? So far I was told to drink lemon juice mixed with honey. I'll take any and all advice. Happy Saturday! Jeannie
Good morning all. It's cool and rainy today. Double yuck, lol. I will take the cool over the heat but I'm pretty darned tired of the rain, lol.
jeannie I am so sorry hear you are not feeling well. I only know about the tea, honey, and lemon formula. Maybe some lozenges?
I made some new recipes yesterday. First I made clam balls which was supposed to be like stuffed baked clams. They tasted like spicy stuffing. Then I made baked tortillas so I could have guilt free chips and salsa. They weren't great but I enjoyed some with salsa. I took whole wheat tortillas and cut them into triangles. Sprayed with an olive oil spray and baked about 15 minutes. I think they might need some salt, lol.
Then I made a veggie and white bean burger. Yum. Now those I really liked. I made 5 and froze them.
B- Oatmeal
L- Chicken and veggies
D- White bean and veggie burger. I might have some pumpkin soup with that if I make it.
Snack- Chips and salsa.
Does anyone have a healthy recipe for banana bread or muffins? I need to use up some extra bananas this weekend.
Still raining here as well. I am so sick of all this rain, it's been raining almost all month here!!!
Lisa, I don't have any recipes for banana bread, sorry.
Jeannie, my boys have been sick with that and find gargling with salt water seems to help. Also, do you have allergies? or nasal drainage? Stopping the drainage seemed to help them as well. I also take the Vicks Vapo Steam made for steam humidifiers and pour a bit into a simmering pot on the stove. It really seems to help us when we start getting sick. I do not get good results by putting in in the humidifier in the living room as it is so large of an area, and the simmering pot seems to work best. Just, if you do this, make sure it does not boil dry as the smell is horrid!!!
I have left overs in the fridge, am going to try to make some soup with some of the meat...a good day for it for sure. If so, that will be dinner and lunch.
have a great day guys....
Oh, and dear son came in 2nd alternate....He was a cutie pie, they all were, and dang it, I still didn't get a good tux pic...oh well... here is one
So far this morning, I've had coffee while watching it rain. Oh dear, I don't know how to make it smaller!
Good morning ladies....wish we'd get some of your rain...it was 103.5 here yesterday...again!
Jeannie...sorry you're not feeling well...try the lemon juice and honey...that's what my grandma always used!
Lisa...I'll look in my WW cookbook for you to see if there are any recipes there for banana bread. Your veggie/white bean burgers sound good...we had Boca Burgers yesterday for dinner...I love that kind of stuff, because once you put on the pickles and lettuce, I can't tell the difference! I've also done the baked tortillas with salsa...they are a good substitute for the fried.
aiangel...your son looks so cute...I know you were proud of him!
Izzy...Yay to In-n-Out...love their cheeseburgers with grilled onions...did you know you can get one wrapped in lettuce and no bun?
So far this morning I've had my coffee...hubby is taking me to the Mall to have lunch out on the patio...will either have another 1/2 Subway Sandwich or a Chipotle soft chicken taco...dinner...???
Good Sat morn all-so sorry some of you are still getting rain. Cool and sunny here.
Sorry Lisa-don't bake, cook yes,bake-nope.
Breakfast-low fat van yog with grape nuts sprinkled and fruit, coffee.
Lunch-out I think
Dinner-linguine and white clam sauce that I didn't make yesterday.
We're to get pretty cool tomorrow and early week so I have all the makings for a beef stew.
Just swept the front porch-yuck this time of year with all the dang spiders building while we were away.
AiAngel-he's going to be a heartbreaker-so very handsome.
Good morning ladies. I was wondering if we would be eating anything today before going grocery shopping. I mostly eat from the freezor and our electricity went off at 7:08 last night and they did not get it fixed until 9:30 this morning. Ice was still frozen in the freezor, but I will be cooking the food we eat very thoroughly before we eat it, but then I always do.
Lacey, it is about time for your weather to be better than ours. You deserve it, enjoy. Me? I will just keep blowing and coughing and I know why. I am allergic to mold and I am sure the mold spores are having a party. I just emptied out the Lysol spray. Time to go shopping or I will just plug in the ionizer.
Have a happy food day.
Never mind the tux, I love that hair and he is one more handsome young man. I said hunk first, but I was afraid it might mean something I don't know about at other places. Oh, youth is so wasted on the young, but we parents and grandparents can enjoy watching all that energy.
aiangel...I have the same problem...when I added a picture to my profile I was shocked that it was soooooo big!!
Breakfast was going to be an eggo strawberry waffle, but when I took the box out of the fridge they were moldy!! Oh yuck! So I ate a 'Curves' chewy granola bar (1pt).
Hey all...never did get Subway for lunch. Our daughter came by to visit and her and I ended up going to Chipotle Mexican Grill and I got a Chicken Bowl, of which I ate about 1/3...
Dinner will be some Healthy Choice turkey, 2% cheese and avacado on a whole wheat tortilla (0 pt.!). Maybe a pkg. of 100 Calorie Sun Chips. But definately a low fat ice cream cone for a snack this evening while watching our last episode of "McCloud" with Dennis Weaver...we rented the series from Netflix.
Everyone enjoy your Sunday...see y'all on Monday!
