Hi guys! I will be honest, I did not get everything on my to-do list done, but I got most of it! I busted butt around the house today. Close to lunch time I started getting hungry.<\/p>\n

\"raisins\"<\/a>

raisins<\/p><\/div>\n

I put out a small bowl of raisins while I worked on lunch. I only had a few because I was chopping and sauteeing.<\/p>\n

\"Lunch\"<\/a>

Lunch<\/p><\/div>\n

Now I have been trying to keep Wednesdays “meat free” except for chicken broth because I use it in everything. However today it was so gloomy and chilly out that soup was in order. I’m not one for veggie soup, it’s okay but it’s not a favorite. And I didn’t want anything heavy like a bisque or cream soup so I made a soup with some chicken and sun-dried tomato chicken sausage. There were veggies in there, onion, celery, carrots, and green beans. I also added some of the leftover pasta from yesterday’s salads and the roasted chickpeas. It was pretty yummy and hit the spot but not sure I would make it again. I had most of my bowl and some of the kashi crackers. The bread and butter was for Scott.<\/p>\n

After lunch it was back to the grind of getting stuff knocked off my to-do list. As I was busy running around the house trying to get more organized (I swear it seems never ending trying to get the house in order) I heard some movement and rustling around the office. I think I inspired Scott to get the office cleaned up. ;) My side of the office is organized, it’s his side that needs a little help every now and then.<\/p>\n

\"Chai<\/a>

Chai Latte<\/p><\/div>\n

Even though I was running around doing stuff I was still a wee bit chilly and needed something to warm me up. I’m calling this chai latte because that’s what it tasted like even though it’s not really chai. I have Honey Vanilla White Tea by Celestial Seasonings and it tastes and smells exactly like chai. I heated up some vanilla soymilk and steeped the tea bags in the soymilk. Mmmm so good! I will definitely be doing this again.<\/p>\n

\"My<\/a>

My plate<\/p><\/div>\n

Eventually it was time to stop doing stuff for another day and make supper. I did keep this meat free! We had salmon patties, some roasted veggies (carrots, onions, green peppers, and radishes) and I had half a baked potato with butter, S&P, and a wee bit of sour cream. I ate all my salmon, my potato, and a good bit of my veggies. I tossed the veggies with some olive oil, soy sauce, S&P, garlic powder, and some seasoning blend and roasted them at 425 for about 1\/2 an hour. I love roasted veggies, carrots especially.<\/p>\n

Cleaned up the dinner mess and now I’m off to get ready for SF<\/abbr> class tonight. Unfortunately it will be a late night since class ends at 9pm. I’m hoping to be in bed by 10:30. *fingerscrossed*<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
