Salt & Humor

During my cleanse I am realizing some things that I will be changing.  While I can’t see myself completely giving up coffee, sugar and bread (gluten).  I will most certainly be reducing my intake of these food.  While I am giving it my best effort to stick to these dietary exclusions during my cleanse I [...]

A while ago I cooked a buttercup squash and discovered that two out of the three kitties liked it.  I wasn’t actually planning to give them some because if you know one thing about cats, it is that they are finicky eaters.  Well, when I took it out of the oven and was scraping away [...]

Sometimes, the simpler the better.  My 8th grade art teacher used to tell us that ALL the time.  Mrs. Killian was probably my favorite teacher of all time!! Little did I know, that that saying pretty much applies to most of life (in my opinion).  So, breakfast was simple this morning.  Coffee and cream, dry [...]

Wow, this post will make 100! Even though I have not been posting as regular as I did in the beginning,  I am still enjoying it.  So, for anyone who stops by to read or peek at a few pictures, I hope it as been worthwhile.  Originally, I started this blog to keep tabs on [...]

Lets start with oatmeal, shall we.  Something that is so simple can be made in so many different ways.  I’ve seen Kath’s method before but only tried it recently.  I can’t believe I did not try this sooner.  This is for sure my favorite way to make oatmeal! I made the oatmeal just as Kath [...]

I recently tried Nature Valley’s sweet and salty granola bars. I would be lying if I told you they were not good.  In fact, they are outstanding! However, I would kinda classify them in the candy bar or cookie category. . . Darn it all! In particular, the cashew would be my favorite.  Not like I [...]

Making eggs and toast for J and I yesterday, I was perplexed as to which nut butter I wanted. Well, I decided to go with both, cashew and Sunbutter, that is! Side by side, Sunbutter is still #1! For lunch I had my smoothie in a bowl.  I think I prefer this route, if time [...]

I slept in this morning and woke up to birdies singing.  This is just one more little reminder that Spring is near.  Let’s just say, I am a little anxious I did  workout at home with Jackie today.  I seriously love this one! Sometimes videos can be a little cheesy because you hear the same comments [...]

Today was a cloudy, dark rainy day.  Jason had a surprise day off, so we slept in and went to see a matinée.  Sherlock Holmes was great.  Any Robert Downey fans out there? I had a left-over burrito before we went.  That way I woudn’t have any popcorn or soda.  The key is to go [...]

We all need to believe in our selves. I believe that I can make myself happy and achieve my goals. I am a huge Etsy fan.  I just treated myself to this new pendant from Alaiyna B. Designs. Breakfast was a bowl of fresh blueberries and a banana with soy milk and ground flax seeds. [...]

So, last night was taco night. Tacos are one of the best dinners around if you ask me.  I made black beans that we made into refried beans. This was simpler than I was expecting.  Can’t take all the credit though.  Karla knows her black beans.  I have seen them pop up on her site [...]

Yes, Happy.  I hope you are all happy.  I can complain and find negative in the everyday…whatever, whoever.  Gal, why do we do that! Lets just all be happy. We have so much to be happy about.  I will not bore you with all that I am happy for.  I did get this sweet thank [...]
