What I'm Reading This Week #24

Sup y'all!  Welcome to flop sweat season (and Friday!)  I hope you had a good week and stayed cool.   I had to wave the flag and pull all of the 'impatiens' I grew from seed as that is not the plant I apparently bought.  I'm still going round with the people I got them from because dammit, I want a refund.  So I had to go to the nursery and get regular impatiens to replace the ones I pulled.  It's already nicer to see actual color instead of looking out everyday and wonder WTF they're going to turn into other than some rando plant with a thick, juicy stem.  Not that the ones I got look a ton better as they too are leggy.  I don't know what the deal is with that.  I also grabbed some chives half off to plant with the zinnias to keep the aphids at bay.  Who knows if it'll actually work or not, we'll see. Now let's see: 9 Foot Exercises to Try at Home   (I've been doing these over the last week and oochie owie for my weak azz feet...

Breakfast mash

The other morning, I decided to try a little something different for breakfast.

I had a lone sweet potato and wanted to jazz it up for breakfast.  Don't ask why I was craving a sweet potato.  So here's what I did...


I grabbed my morning nana, the sweet potato and some raw honey.  I poked the sweet potato and microwaved it for 5 minutes.  While it was warming, I mashed the banana in a bowl.

When the tater was done, I peeled the skin and mashed it as well. 


Then I added the two mashes and gave 'em a stir together.


I dipped a fork in the honey and drizzled it over the top and hit it with a bit of pumpkin pie spice.

It was quite good and kept me full all morning.

What concoctions do you like for breakfast?

  1. It did not sound very good to me at first but I have to admit that the end result looks delicious!

  2. That sounds pretty good. I usually do a very simple breakfast, I never have the time for anything fancy. Yogurt and some fruit or oatmeal is about the fanciest I ever get.

    1. I bet you could make it the night before and reheat it in the morning if it was covered.

  3. That breakfast really sounds delicious--and so healthy. Smart idea Anele! Today I am joining you and Mr. in getting back on the weight-loss track. I joined a 6-month Diet Bet with my son. I was hesitant, it seemed like a big commitment, and was kind of expensive, but knew I had to change something FAST, because I was on my way back to regaining all 178 pounds I lost. When I got on the scale last night, (for the first time in weeks), I saw was a 35-pound regain from my 150-lb. happy weight, (and that's just since Christmas!) so I've got my work cut out for me in the next six months. Thanks for being an inspiration!!! It's only noon, but so far....so good! It's a START!!!

    1. Good on ya if you can use money as a motivator. That's just under 6 lbs per month you need to lose and it can be done! You've got this and you've caught it before it turned into something more serious. We are meant to be statistics for the ones who lose the weight and keep it off. I know it's harder but so worth it.
