Easter weekend

I survived! This past weekend was my first string of shifts back at the hospital after two weeks on my death bed.

I’m still on antibiotics and my ear and head are still congested (and requiring their own med cocktail), but my cough is loose and minimal and I can breath, stand upright and walk. I’m like a human again! Hooray. Still no exercise though. Which meant Kyle ran the Hollywood Half by himself.

Since I was at work, Ethel and her sister took over official cheerleading duties. How cute is their poster?!?

So let’s start with Saturday.

Kyle woke up earlier than I did to head to the race. I slept in til 5:30.

Saturday’s work eats: details here.

Saturday’s dinner: creamed spinach & quinoa, bread & Earth Balance.

Saturday’s dessert: biscuit cinnamon roll (half eaten before photo).

Sunday’s work eats: oatmeal, banana bread, salad, ginger, banana, carrots.

In the breakfast mix:

brown rice
quick cooking oats
dried cranberries
fresh strawberries
coconut sugar

In the salad mix:

spinach
pickled cucumber and sesame seeds
quinoa
plain tofu
avocado
tamari

The last banana-nut bread 🙁

Sunday’s dinner: crock-pot stuffing.

OMG, you are definitely going to want the recipe for this one. I had no recipe in mind whatsoever, I was just throwing this in the pot that I thought sounded good together. The fact that it was out of this world delicious is further proof that you can’t mess anything up in a slow cooker.

I prepped it before I left to go to work, set the crock-pot on low for 6 hours and when I came home…holy aroma!

Kyle was licking his chops in anticipation of my arrival.

Sunday’s dessert: [another] biscuit cinnamon roll.

I’m dying for some recipes!!! Your food looks so good! And I’m glad you made it through the weekend without any insanity!

That cinnamon roll looks killer! I want to buy that book but I’m worried that I’ll eat nothing but pastries and mac n’ cheese for the next month… And that would be not good!
