Happy last few days of September and first few days of fall!! Here's what we have been up to....
What we're eating this week?
Monday: salmon/chicken burgers with salad and roasted okra
Tuesday: Garlic shrimp and steamed cauli/broccoli
Wednesday: Leftovers with a salad maybe... or if the protein runs out, some lamb
Thursday: lentils and cauli rice
Friday: dinner out, I am thinking
The weekend is too far away for me to think about
Low carb and low sugar with some little treats thrown in.
What I'm reminiscing about
Those lazy summer days... Life is starting to get hectic already
What I'm loving
I've set aside 15-25 minutes before I pick up the kids some days to sit, have a cup of tea and a good fat bar. Relaxes me before the afternoon routine begins.
What we've been up to…
School is in full swing and extra curricular is beginning again. This year C (9) is in Karate (twice a week) competitive swimming (twice a week), piano and violin. A is in Kindermusik and gymnastics. Both girls will be in skiing in January and C is in engineering camp for eight weeks this year.
What I'm dreading…
The really cold temps.
What I'm working on
Decluttering the kitchen in September
What I'm excited about…
A trip to NYC for a family weekend in October.
What I'm watching/reading…
Ohhhh TV has begun again.
I just finished The Storyteller's Secret. A very intriguing, colourful read.
