What I'm Reading This Week #33
Good morning to you! Friday is finally here and that's a good reason to take a hooky day. You know, for mental health reasons. 😁 Remember when it felt like you had to give an actual excuse when you wanted to call in back in the day? Then if you said you were sick and you really just wanted to go to lunch, a movie and maybe hit the grocery store on the way home, you had to pray you didn't run into anyone from work to bust you, like it was illegal or something. 🙄 I guess that's something that's changed for the better is not having to lie about why you're out. The workouts this week have been absolutely kicking our butts! We thought the band workout was hard then I was like "we should do Powerstrike to see where we are". Remember that dream sequence in Dumb and Dumber where Lloyd puts the dude's heart in a doggie bag, folds it up and hands it to the guy? It was like Powerstrike doing that with our asses. Then the followi...
Favorite dinner this week was hamburgers/ no bun, with sauteed zucchini and yellow beans in garlic butter.
ReplyDeleteMy husband and I made our own marinade from the lemon verbena we picked up at our CSA and grilled up some lemon chicken. I'm trying to lose the "last 10" so it's been very, very low carb for the past week.
ReplyDeleteThis week has been truly uninspired. I can't think of a single meal I want to share. Tonight we're having a chicken/veggie stir fry or sweet & sour chicken. That will probably be the best meal of the week.
ReplyDeleteTues and Wed are my favorites this week! Do you make your own crab stuffing for the flounder? Love the look of the vegetables all week!! Also, how did you like the Coho salmon? Was it fresh or frozen? Seems I can only get farm-raised Atlantic or fresh Sockeye, which I'd love to buy but it's been $14.99 a lb. I saw that Coho salmon is on sale this week. Tons o' bones? Flavor?
ReplyDeletehave a great time with your weekend company!!
Oh that's cute. No, I get the flounder frozen at Trader Joe's but it tastes just as good as when I had it back in the day at Red Lobster (when it used to be good). The coho salmon was frozen as well at TJ's and I only get it because it doesn't have the skin on it. (I HATE taking the skin off of fish!) But I also think the coho tastes more fishy but not as boney as other salmon. I looked at getting fresh to have the butcher take care of that for me but it was almost twice as much and I just can't justify that.
DeleteOhhh you have some lovely eats! I love your plates too! They make it look even better. :) I wonder if arranging my food more neatly will make it taste better. Hmm :D
ReplyDeleteAll the food looks so delicious! Keep up the great work lady!!
ReplyDeleteTrader Joe's chipotle cheddar bites? This is a thing that exists? NEED NOW!
