Sunday is coming to a close and there is still one more day to this lovely long weekend!  I got a bonus today too because (well this sounds bad to say about my own son’s team) Little Man’s team lost their game this morning, so by 10:15am I was on my way home and had [...]

One of my goals since converting to clean eating and achieving my weight goals, etc is to be sure my kids learn that eating clean is the best way to keep their bodies healthy and ready for whatever they might want to do as they grow up!  Right now they are super-active and probably will [...]

Hello!  Trying to get back in the groove of posting every day here.  So, first – exercise and eats! Exercise – Friday -didn’t make it to bootcamp yesterday afterall…sadness! I think the week finally caught up with me when the alarm went off, I never heard it and woke up 20 minutes later.  I was [...]

Wow what a week so far!  I haven’t had a moment to sit down and blog!  It has been crazy running from work, back home and right back out the door to a baseball game every night this week.  My hubster went out of town for a couple of days too – so it was all [...]

For the first time this summer I decided to try growing my own tomatoes this year.   I thought it fit well into eating clean to grow my own produce!   Since I kill just about every plant – mostly because I forget to take care of them (sorry – plants are low on the totem pole of living things [...]

A quick note – I finally got the email subscribe function to work on the site…it was a huge accomplishment for me  – I’ve been struggling with making it work.   Now I just hope someone wants to subscribe! My main goal for today was to get some of the house clean, but it turned into [...]

I have been really looking forward to a brand new farmers market opening right around the corner from my house on Friday nights!  So convenient and much easier for me to go on a Friday late afternoon/early evening than early Saturday morning.  There always seems to be some sport practice/game to get to then.  Even though there was [...]

I have a couple of fun food adventures I’ll be testing out here soon and I had to write about them! First – my chia seed order arrived the other day!  I have so far only added them to my morning oats. They have a fun little crunchy texture.  I’ve only put in 1 tspn at a [...]

Okay, so I obviously made up that word….Look at these strawberries that I got over the weekend…..these are from Walmart and were only $1.38!  We’re on a big strawberry kick at home and I’ve been making up a tub of chopped berries to have in the fridge for snacking or yogurt.  Last night as I [...]

What a crazy-busy weekend….whew!  To quickly catch-up on exercise – Sundays are my new ‘rest’ day.  Since I’m just not quite used to not doing anything on a rest day- I decided to get up and do the X-stretch dvd.  I got 30minutes into that and Sweet Pea woke up coughing – poor thing.  I [...]
