I used to do this every day

Holy crap I actually took pictures of everything I ate in a 24 hour period!  I can’t believe I used to do this every single day… Starting with breakfast.    I slept in til 9 but if I didn’t have a child I would have hidden under the sheets until at least noon.  I was still recovering from night shift shenanigans and pacman wasn’t pleased.  Given that, both of our appetites were out of control.  I fed him first of course, but then got right to work on my own grub. I wanted pancakes, but… Read more >

Five to nine weekend

My parents are remodeling their kitchen (slash living room slash dining room slash house slash annoying) so it’s a good thing it was gorgeous and sunny this weekend.    Because we had a birthday party for my dad!!  He’s 59 years young!  I’ll get to the party details later.   I have lots of photos of people from this weekend and I know that’s all you guys my sister wants to see anyway.  Food schmood right?  P disagrees.  He’s digging the solids.  We had a slow start with carrots, but bananas and avocado have been… Read more >

Weekly Recap

This week was fun.  Busy and not busy in perfect amounts.  One thing I’ve noticed about working part time is there’s a big (HUGE) difference between 2 shifts and 3 shifts.  It may not sound like it, but I feel like the time off allows me to get so much more done.  And rather than fill it with errands and chores, I can actually hang out and relax and enjoy myself.  It’s lovely.  Here are some of the things I ate this week. Breakfasts   Baked oatmeal bars with blueberries [sorry about the crappy pic]… Read more >

The last weekend

Dramatic post title, huh. Even though I’ve already technically started work, it has all been fluff stuff, like HR paperwork, physical eval, etc.  So this weekend was my last REAL weekend as a stay-at-home mom.  It’s sad.  I am trying not to think about what I’m missing while I’m away.  But I do like that I can re-discover myself again outside of my mom role.  I wouldn’t go back to nursing if I didn’t love it. Anyway, Friday was a pretty boring day.  I dragged P to Sac with me because I had an appointment… Read more >

Ten Reviews

Here are some products I’ve tried lately. Some were bad, some were okay, some were good, and some were awesome. So I figured I’d share. I have no affiliation with any of these companies. These are simply my honest opinions. 1. Boulder Canyon Natural Foods olive oil kettle cooked potato chips I’m not sure what makes these “kettle” exactly, but as far as ingredients go they are clean and pure.  Vegan and gluten free.  And FODMAPs friendly.  Purely potatoes, olive oil and salt. I thought they were too greasy, but I’m not a potato chip… Read more >
