My Favorite Products That Make My Life Easier

I'm sure you probably know from today to Friday (11th) is Prime Day.  If you remember my post about how I can keep this place up and running yearly, you know unfortunately Amazon is really the only way I can make that happen since I'm considered a 'mini' blogger.  My sassy thoughts doth not jibe with sponsors, my following is small (which I love actually) so Amazon affiliate links are the only way I can hit that target.   I will say that due to tariff pauses expiring at the end of day today, prices could go way up tomorrow (9th) so I would encourage you to buy today even though Prime Day doesn't end until the 11th.  I know I will be. I'm going to share products I love and if you check 'em out and buy them or anything on Amazon once you click through, it'll help me keep the place jumpin'.    Electric Spin Scrubber I can't begin to tell you the game changer this is especially for someone who isn't a clean freak.  The last thing my mind but mor...

Food Journal Friday 4/2-4/6

It's been a yummy week in our household!  Let's eat!


Monday was lemon pepper alfredo with roasted asparagus.  Boy THAT sure made for an interesting trip to the bathroom in the middle of the night.  You know what they say about asparagus and wee wee.  Sorry, not very appetizing food post fodder!  Calories:  531


Tuesday was chili with 3/4 oz of chipotle gouda and oyster crackers with a Hawaiian sweet roll (not pictured b/c I forgot it until the end of the meal...der!)  I loooove me a good bowl of chili!  Calories:  643


I love it so much we had it Wednesday with a King's Hawaiian dinner roll.  Thankfully my taste buds had somewhat healed from burning them the night before.  Calories:  643


Thursday was mango salmon over a bed of TJ's Spinach and Carrot polenta.  Gotta get more fish in.  I was aiming for at least twice this week but failed.  Boo.  Calories: 655



Tonight was BBQ Chicken naan pizza with russet potato fries.  1 tbsp of ketchup on the side. Yum!  The Mr was a happy boy since this is his favorite meal.  Calories:  651

Calorie average for the week:  2218
Calories burned this week:  4925

Even though it was a desperately needed rest day, we took a walk around the neighborhood this afternoon.  I love it when he teleworks!

Did you eat anything delicious this past week?  What are you plans for this weekend?

    I'm traveling and didn't have anything too adventurous. I did find a great hamburger joint in Birmingham, though, which will be handy to know next trip. :)

    Ooh, that chili sure jumped off the page! Today is cooking day, gotta go to the store! (Although I'll bet I can't find chipotle gouda here, YUM!)

    Yum! I am a happy girl now that asparagus is in season. Stinky pee or not, it's delicious and one of my favorite veggies!

    I can see why the naan pizza is a favorite of the Mr.'s. It looks fantastic! Last time I looked for naan I couldn't find it, but I'll have another look or maybe get some in a few weeks when I'm up at my folks' house. Where they have stores with actual food instead of pseudo-groceries. I also need to stock up on chicken sausage, coffee, whatever produce is on sale that week, and get some of that better than peanut butter stuff you use.

    This week - I was so sick all week I barely ate solid food. I did drink gallons of orange juice though. Hopefully tomorrow's dinner will redeem my woeful week.

    I tried a pasta & asparagus dish yesterday and it did not turn out nearly as well as yours--that alfredo sounds SO good!

    On two blogs today I found a spicy basil chicken dish. I'm going to make it tonight adding pea pods, mushrooms and bean sprouts over brown rice. So good! Shrimp with angel hair pasta and asparagus is next. Can't wait to have veggies all around.

    The salmon day jumped out at me! :raises hand for more fish nights, too:
    I wonder what spinach and carrot polenta are? I shall google polenta but will put out a general guess - corn-based?
    Googled! it is cornmeal. Do I just mix in spinach and carrots to the basic polenta recipe? (Staring at the first entry - Giada de Laurentil recipe)

    Always LOVE your FFJs!!!

    Melly- The polenta is in Trader Joe's Frozen Food section. It's a quick fix, 6 minutes in the microwave!
