What I'm Reading This Week #14

Happy first Friday!  It's April 2nd.  Did anyone have the nerve to prank you yesterday?  I remember last year when all of the sites that are typically known for their epic April Fools Day pranks were like "um yeah, we're 3 weeks into a pandemic, I think we're going through enough right now."  Kinda still feels that way so yeah...no tomfoolery in these parts!

Here's some eats for this week.

Sunday I made 2 oz lentil pasta with 2 large zukes and shallots with low sodium marinara and an arugula spinach salad.

Workout was lower body strength.

Monday was grilled General Tso's with caulirice and pineapple.

Workout was Anna's cardio for a 400 calorie burn.

Tuesday was maple orange roughy, sweet potato gnocchi and Brussels sprouts.

Workout was MBF day 3 arm strength torture session.

Wednesday was a carrot noodle stir fry modified from this recipe.

Workout was 2 laps around the hood even though it was windy and cold.

Thursday was BBQ shrimp and grits made with bone broth.

Workout was Insanity Max Cardio Challenge.

Now it's time to peep at...

I think we're going to start getting to a bit of organizing and stuff.  At least that's the plan.  Oh crap, it's Easter weekend!!  Um yeah, so we'll be doing that too.  I've already got honey baked ham frozen from when they did a bogo on slices so I suppose we'll throw together a few sides too and call it a day.  

Any plans for the weekend?
