Whew, what a weekend! We went away to Pittsburgh for a wedding on Saturday, and I didn’t have internet where we stayed, so no posting yesterday. But I have lots to tell!! First, the wedding. It was beautiful!! They did a winter wonderland theme- and this was one gorgeous wedding. We laughed, we ate, we …
We made it 3 weeks on the SD as of today- when did that happen??? We went grocery shopping today, and discovered we were picking up our new “regular” items, like sprouted wheat bread, Kashi crackers & cereals, 3 different types of salads (we couldn’t get through 1 in a week before), 18 eggs in …
I’m on call tonight, but all of the SD meals today were delicious! This morning’s breakfast we’ve had a couple of times; it’s called “baked eggs” in the SD book; but we like to call them “Pizza Eggs!” Pizza Eggs1 medium to large tomato1/4 cup mozzarellabasil (dry or fresh; I used dry)onion powdergarlic powder2 eggsparmesan …
Thanks to my Aunt Janet- the Ezekiel French Toast was amazing!!! We were supposed to have a slice of toast and 2 eggs for breakfast this morning…but we were in a french toast mood this morning. So, we switched it up a little and used one egg and our slices of bread to make french …
For once, a leisurely morning! It was bright outside and ABOVE freezing for once! Forty-one degrees never felt so positively Spring-y before! Some of the snow is melting- thank goodness, because it was starting to pile up pretty good. This morning, we had oatmeal made with Steel Cut Oats (they’re supposed to be ultra-healthy), blackberries, …
As a follow-up on yesterday’s post, the Today Show had a great clip this morning on whole grain breads, & they included some great ideas for tasty brands, including gluten free! Here’s the link to the video: Today Show: “How Healthy is the Bread You’re Eating?” On a different note…I crave sugar when I have a …
Breads are the trickiest part of the SD so far, i think. Not all “wheat” breads are actually 100% whole wheat!! And not all 100% whole wheat breads taste good! Ugh. Ok, so I’m trying to wade through this mess…and here’s what I’ve got. The Good Guys Ok, so according to the SD book, there …
Day 15: It’s official: I’ve lost 9 pounds in 2 weeks! I also realized that I have not posted about my favorite of the Sonoma breakfasts so far: Buttermilk Waffles! They were made with Buckwheat flour, which I did not have on hand, so I bought some. They were nutty & delicious- probably fabulous with …
I was on call last night, that’s why I did not post yesterday. It was a busy night, I only slept for four hours, and it was broken into 2 hours at a time. However, we did enjoy Sonoma Granola yesterday, which I will have to gush about in another post! Day 14: You …
Sooo…pilates are hard. Like really hard. I tried a Pilates work out for the first time ever this evening, and it totally kicked my butt. I do like that it is focused on dance- I did ballet when I was young, and I loved it so much! I think I am going to attempt it …
