Weekly Meal Plan for August 14, 2023

Hi friends! Eliza Dog and I are at home in Alabama this week. She's actually at doggie daycare right now. She knew right where to go when I got her out of the truck. I hope that means she likes it LOL She will go back on Thursday. I plan on heading to Huntsville for the day and having lunch with Lo and going to the cross stitch/quilting store.

Weigh in on Saturday went ok, I was up .4. I have TOTALLY eaten off my plan all weekend. I ordered pizza cause I lost track of time cutting out a new Halloween quilt for Jenna. And yesterday Billy and I had foot long coneys from Sonic for dinner before he went back to Georgia. But, I'm back on track this morning. I hit up our Publix after dropping Eliza off and grocery shopped so I am good. I picked up a pancake/waffle mix that is Keto. I'm wanting a waffle. I'll let you know how it tastes next week.

Here's the menu plan for the week...

Monday - chicken strips with roasted radishes and broccoli and cheese sauce. I really liked the roasted radishes I made a couple weeks ago so I'm doing them again.

Tuesday - shrimp tacos with coleslaw. Yes, this is the same recipe as a couple weeks ago that I LOVED.

Wednesday - pulled pork with coleslaw. I bought burger buns for Jenna and Em and I'll probably eat mine without any bread.

Thursday - I found this good looking recipe for cauliflower rice with sausage. They called it a dirty rice swap, but it looks more like jambalaya.

Friday - avocado corn chicken salad. I found this recipe on Instagram.

I'm figuring I will have TONS of leftovers this week since I'm here by myself. I'm sure Jenna and Em will eat with me most nights. Jen was happy I'd be home for a bit.

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...

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

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)

Until Next Time...
