100 Posts and Still Going Strong!

Holy Smokes! Today marks post numero 100! I seriously can’t believe that I’ve been blogging for one hundred days! Craziness! I am still having a ball doing it because not only have I “met” so many great people, but I’ve learned a lot about myself, too! I’m thrilled to have become part of this community!

I decided to stray from my typical oats today to finally try Caitlin’s french toast using English muffins.



Wow! These were amazing! I used an egg white/almond breeze/cinnamon mixture and let them hang out at a low temp until they were beautifully browned on each side. While they were in the pan, I made some blueberry sauce. I just combined 1 cup of water, ¼ cup of agave and 2 cups frozen blueberries. I brought it up to a boil and then it simmer for a wee bit. At the end I made a slurry (equal parts corn starch & water) to thicken the mixture up. Here’s the finished product. What a wonderful treat!

After breakfast we went to the farm for our Sunday morning visit. My MIL bought Mario Cart for the Wii and we had fun trying that out! We also brought Wii Music out for them to try. Time sure flies when you’re having fun, I tell you! Before I knew it, it was noon and time to hit the road. Here’s a picture of the 3 puppies (not so) patiently waiting for a treat!



I wasn’t really in the mood for anything for lunch, but I had some stuff in the fridge that needed to be used up so I nuked a turkey burger that was topped with some brie and left over veggies from last night.



This did not hit the spot and I ended up tossing the veggies. Very weird for me, but I just wasn’t feeling this lunch AT ALL. Even the burger went down my throat like a rock. Ugh. I ended up munching on a Kashi Honey Almond bar. Strangely enough, that kept me full for 4.5 hours!



I spent a little over an hour on my Wii Fit this afternoon. I did a little of each yoga, strength, balance and aerobic activities. I managed to unlock a few more moves under each heading, too! One on my favorites that I unlocked today was a boxing one. It really got my heart rate up and had me in a sweat! After that I cuddled up with a pear and a chai tea…



And read my book for an hour, which made me sleepy so I had a half hour snooze. What a relaxing afternoon!

Dinner tonight was pea meal bacon, egg whites and toast. My hubby had a hockey game over the dinner hour and the kids decided they wanted eggs (they had a 2-egg omelette each). After spending such a lazy afternoon, I was happy to oblige!



We went to my parents afterwards for a visit. While there, I noshed on 3 chocolate chip cookies and a mug of tea. I made sure to be home in time to watch The Amazing Race and made another snack during the show.



Plain yogurt, pumpkin granola and blueberry sauce from this morning. This was definitely a bowl of yum. Once I ate it, I stuck a minty piece of gum in my mouth to ward off another snack attack! That trick always works for me! Once I’m done on the computer, I plan to head to bed and get an early night in. Back to the grind tomorrow!

Bye for now!!
