Weekly Menu for April 10, 2023

 I meant to post this yesterday but it was Easter and Hubs and I decided to have a lazy day in bed.  It's been a hot minute since we've done that.  I read, he watched several movies.  We got up to walk the dog a couple times, but otherwise, we were in bed.  We even ordered Door Dash for dinner and had a picnic in bed.

Saturday was weigh in day and I am down 2.6 pounds from the previous week!  YAY ME!  I'm so proud of myself.  So, to keep up with the pounds going down I'm here today with my menu for this week.


Monday - We're having our Easter dinner today since we didn't cook yesterday.  Ham, mashed potatoes for Hubs, mashed cauliflower for me, a deviled egg pasta salad and green beans
Tuesday - Philly Cheesesteak Skillet
Wednesday -Frittata.  I'm going to use some of the leftover ham and throw in some tomatoes, spinach, and mushrooms.
Thursday -  Mardi Gras chicken and shrimp. I got this recipe off Stacey Hawkins website.  She's got lots of Lean & Green recipes.
Friday - Beef and mushrooms in the slow cooker.  

I normally menu plan on the weekend.  If any of these are SUPER DUPER GOOD, I'll come back and share the recipe.

Until next time....

My Reading Habits

I am an avid book reader.  I have even been known to read a good bit of fanfiction (I'm a Twifan...yes, I admit that in public).  Since joining Goodreads I've come to love to do reading challenges.  In case you're like my best friend and have no clue what that might be, let me explain.  A reading challenge can be as simple as setting a reading goal for the year.  Or it can be as complex as one I'm doing next year that is an Artist Color Wheel Challenge - find book covers that are mainly the colors on the color wheel and are the shades of the grey scale. Anyway, I read Book Chick City's blog  http://www.bookchickcity.com/  and they're doing a Mystery/Suspense reading challenge that I'm going to join in on next year.  I'm going to see if I can read 12 mystery/suspense books.  You may be thinking that that isn't a whole lot of books for someone who claims to be an avid reader; and you're right, it's not BUT I normally don't read myste...

WIP Wednesday

 Today is Wednesday, right?  My days are always off after a holiday.  I'm thankful for the rest and family time, but I'm lost on days.  So, we're just going to go with today being Wednesday, even if it isn't (I just checked and it is!) So, with that being said, here's what I'm working on this week in cross stitch.  First up is my June Cross Stitch Camp piece.  Sherri, The Colorado Stitcher on Instagram and Youtube, hosts Cross Stitch Camp each summer.  Each month, June, July and August, has a theme.  June was stitch something with a bird.  I chose Every Day Things by Heart in Hand (this was released this year at Nashville Market).  I am soooo close to being done that I will finish it in July.  This is on 16 count wren by Picture this Plus with all the called for floss. July's Cross Stitch Camp theme was something that grows.  I liberated Autumn 1831 by Samplers Not Forgotten from my wish list on 123stitch.  I'm...

Halloween's around the corner

So, I've been working on Hallween designs this week. What you see in the picture is a sneek peek of a set I'm listing next week for Bow*nified Designs Spooky Chic Halloween launch. I've got a OOAK skirt set almost finished and another set ready to cut out. Who'd have thought that I'd be working on Halloween stuff the very week the girls go back to school. I surely didn't. But I feel the need to keep up with what is selling :) And speaking of the girls going back to school this week...I've already subbed for 3 days! It's the first FULL week of school and teachers are missing days. CRAZY! However, I mustn't complain. This at least gets me in the classroom and schools so teachers won't forget me and the principals won't forget me so they can give me a job ;0)
