Weekly Menu for May 22, 2023

Hi friends! I'm back with the menu for this week. I know, I missed last week's menu. Last week was rough. I didn't feel good. I didn't really menu plan. I didn't eat enough veggies. All of that equaled the scale going up on weigh in day. I'm not even upset because of that. I'm more upset that my sugar was off sooooo much during the week and I felt bad because of it. When the readings were between 121-127 I had the most horrible headaches. I had a headache for 4 days. I told Billy was tired of my head hurting. Thankfully, yesterday and today I am feeling better and my sugar is around 119.

On to the menu...I really want some turkey. Like Thanksgiving Day turkey. So, that is definitely on the menu this week.

Monday - slow cooker chicken teriyaki with riced cauliflower and zucchini and squash

Tuesday - turkey breast and a broccoli casserole

Wednesday - tacos

Thursday - chicken strips and a Mediterranean salad

Friday - Big Mac Salad

I'm really hoping we will be going home next weekend. This job is wrapping up and I am missing home.

Until next time...

Make it work....

OK. So, the fabric I got from the challenge isn't tooooo bad together :) I'm making it work. My problem is with the trims. What am I suppose to do with the ribbon and lace??? Maybe a lace rose? Ribbon straps?with suspender clips? AACCKKK!!!! I'd post a pic and get suggestions but my rules said I can't do that. Soooo, I guess I'm on my own. I'll keep you posted! In other designing news...I've got a Valentine set finished. It goes in the mail tomorrow to the model. I got more Valentine fabric to sew. Not sure what I'm doing with it yet though. And another Valentine set planned, but with not overly Valentine fabric so it could be worn later in the year. Pretty, isn't it? Andddd...be on the lookout for a new website. www.boutiquerascals.com I'll have my wonderful creations for sale there and there will be lots of great things from all my Rascal buddies. We'll have clothes, bows, purses, jewelry, tooth fairy pillows, lots of great things!...

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...

Ready for the rodeo?

Well, after being away from sewing and listing and selling for a couple of years, I've finally got something new up. I used an adorable cowboy and cowgirl fabric from Michael Miller and made this skirt and top that would be perfect for a trip to the rodeo. Or it would be great for western day at school. Feel free to check it out...even bid on it ;0) http://cgi.ebay.com/Custom-Boutique-Rascals-Western-Cowgirl-CBD-FCBM_W0QQitemZ280255354898QQihZ018QQcategoryZ79714QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem

Until Next Time...
