munchin lunchin

Feeling so satisfied from lunch today! Eating out is nice, but it just makes you feel a gross kind of full, and then hungry again a few hours later.

Today I had left over spring rolls (see instagram for picture!) and plain 0% chobani yogurt mixed with berry blue raspberry jello powder (sugar free!).

For dessert, 1 cocoa rice cake with natural almond butter spread on top. At earthfare or any other whole foods store you can find individual packets! They have regular peanut butter or almond butter, honey flavored, even chocolate! The chocolate hazelnut almond butter is a great sub for nutella.

To dip my spring rolls in, I used spicy brown mustard. I find it extremely delicious and have been subbing that in my meals instead of using mayo or ketchup. You'd def have to like mustard though!


Hope everyone is having a great day! Xoxo

not really chicken, chicken patties

Ok so today I forgot to put my chicken breast in the crockpot before I left for work! Boo! So I put it in after. I can just have some fresh chicken for lunch tomorrow :)

So for a quick fix since Pey and I went on a late walk.. I made morning star chik patties! SO good. They get crispy in the oven and are very low in calories! I actually like them better than getting a chicken sandwich. Along with it I sautéed some zucchini really quickly and seasoned with garlic and pepper! Yum!


Sorry the pics I have aren't all that beautiful. I was in the middle of chowing down when I remembered to take a pic of the meal. Instead of using bread to make a sandwich I used ketchup as my extra calories tonight to dip the patty in. I just really didn't feel like bread since I had mini pita bread pb&j's for lunch. (growing to love sugar free jelly btw!)

She is great! Has amazing advice an recipes! She really has worked so hard at this whole blogging thing.


Hopefully tomorrow I will have a prettier entree to show :) sometimes the day just gets away from me and before I know it, it's 5:30/6 o clock.


Please if there is something you'd like to see featured let me know! Or share your recipes as well :)


This was yet again a boring post lol. But I'm sorry! I work all week long.


Finally feeling more comfortable at the gym to just do my own thing and my own work out without feel self conscious that people are watching me. Such an accomplishment!


Happy Wednesday! :) xo

how to get over oth ending? Reruns and retail therapy!

Today was a good day. I kind of liked the cloudy weather. I went out with some co workers today for lunch, and had a salad with some grilled salmon sprinkled on top. It was delicious and healthy! I felt so fresh after lunch too instead of bloated and full.

Today was a gym day and worked out almost too hard. I have been so sick to my stomach lately. Hopefully that for sure ends soon.

I went to target today and finally bought some things I've been needing. I made a small collage of some little things I bought. One is a little bag to keep in my new car with some things I may always need in it such as bandages, small first aid kit, facial wipes and etc.

Next, is Self Magazine. For one I LOVE Carey Underwood and she has the body that I am dying for! And I love the magazine so I bought this issue.

I also bought some super comfy slippers since my other ones were worn to pieces. Only 8 bucks at target! They aren't the sexiest things on the planet but are so comfy and aren't uncomfortable to wear.


Last but not least, Jergens ultra healing lotion. I got super bad razor burn over a week ago and ever since then my legs are so so dry. This lotion during the day and baby oil at night should do the trick!

Hopefully I get a chance every week to do a few favorite items of the week! Hopefully these blogs aren't also pointless lol. I hope someone out there is reading them!


Hope everyone has a wonderful night! Xox

planting=free food

Did something that made me super excited today... I went out and bought veggies and herbs! I'm always buying these fresh.. Why not pay once to grow it and then continue having it to my convenience for free? So.. That being said, I bough parsley, mint, basil and oregano whenever I need it fresh. I am also growing fresh romaine, spinach leaves, kale, broccoli, and tomatoes! Yum!! I made myself my own little plant stand. When I figure out the organization of it all a bit more I will probably grow a few other things, but for now this will do! :) happy Sunday!

tree hill wednesday!

SO EXCITED THAT ONE TREE HILL COMES ON TONIGHT!



snacks for the occasion :


1 cup of air popped popcorn

1 apple cut into slices and 2 tbs. of sugar free jello powder to dip it in. YUM.

It is truly delicious!


So curious to see what happens...and I hear that we might figure out who dies this episode..but I am not extremely sure about that one..

so in love :)

For dinner tonight I am making something super simple!! Just a salad consisting of spinach leaves, romaine hearts, cherry tomatoes, sweet baby peppers, garlic powder, balsamic vinegarette (sp?) made from scratch. I like to add dried cranberries sometimes for a hint of sweet but it's really up to you! Along with that I am having tilapia with some lemon juice, rosemary, and pepper on top while I cook it on the stovetop.


Tonight I am preparing my dough for my pizza I am making from scratch on Friday night. The recipe says the dough is best if it sits for 24-48 hours in the refrigerator! :) SO excited about this one!





Target is having some amazing sales..so excited for easter! Went shopping today and bought Pey some new crocs at her request..and also found her an adorable Easter hat to wear (only $1 in the dollar bins!). She also, of course, requested a Dora the Explorer book and another Max and Ruby cup. Love seeing her get so excited over simple little things!!

xox see you at dinner time :)

im so excited, and i just cant hide it..

good morning! i forgot to blog last night so here i am making one this morning.

everything went well yesterday, so that is fabulous news..

i really don't have much to say since i had to sit around all day the past couple of days. i bought some really really cute fabrics yesterday to make some dresses and other things for Peyton :) i cant wait! i already am almost finished with one thing so i feel pretty great about myself. and accomplished.

here are the fabrics..

i am so in love with them!! now that ive been learning how to make things i cant stop buying things/fabrics to make stuff with! ive also started thrifting... where i go to thrift or consignment stores to buy certain things and make them nicer.... it actually has been working out really well and its extremely cheap!

I also got a new bag from target the other day that im absolutely in love with!! i don't have a picture though..

i love getting new clothes because it makes me feel great! im just excited for fall and winter because its so much more fun to dress for those seasons than spring and summer..

today im going back out to get a few things, and see what i can come up with..and then im going to go work out!

im making an italian dinner tonight...pasta with home made sauce (grammys recipe) and mini eggplant pizzas. all of these new recipes im trying are all mostly from my new recipe app that is all low fat recipes. so hopefully it'll be delicious! and lets not forget the wine...

ill be back to let you guys know how it all turns out :) have a great day!!

sometimes i just cannot stand the people i run into working with the public. some people are just so damn miserable in their own lives that they are just so fucking rude!! here comes the language btw...

anyways, today was pretty great aside from bitch asses. i got an iphone (woot) and that was pretty great. now im going to be obsessed with that for awhile. i signed up for an online english class...lets hear it for round 3 ...yep 3rd time im taking this class. maybe this time ill actually not get lazy and follow through with this shit. i have a feeling this time i will.


stomach has been killing me and tmrw is my "cleansing" day...personally i dont find anything cleansing about shit but...that is just me. ONTO something better....i dont have to work all week which is pretty exciting for me...i can finally sleep in...and spend some time with peyton.

can someone please tell me why mosquito bites itch so much and also become huge hard bumps on your leg? i look like i have a skin disease over here... #notsexy.

and another random topic....the sour patch kid commercials....first of all im not concerned that its sour than sweet...im concerned that a damn creeper shaped life size gummy human is lingering around me... thats all i have to say about that..

nothing really interesting to say tonight :) sorry, folks. tmrw ill let you know how my shit fest goes. yes thats literal. excuse my language and vulgerness for the night...but ive had a long day, and YEP you guessed it...i got ignored for the 4th night in a row by you know who...
