After work on Friday afternoon, I was craving Thai. Drunken noodles to be exact. One of my favorites. But, we got a last-minute dinner invitation from our friends Patrick and Sabrina to join them to try out a new Barbeque place. I was much more excited about the company than the barbeque. I like barbeque [...]

Saturday morning started sunny and warm….the warmest day of the year so far. I had to drive up to Pigeon Forge, about an hour away, to do a brief nutrition talk for a Cancer Survivors’ Retreat, so Anthony and I decided to invite some friends to join us to make a fun day of it. I [...]

My breakfast and lunch were repeats of yesterday…if it isn’t broken…don’t fix it. Starbucks perfect oatmeal + almond butter + coffee. Leftover Greek chicken salad for lunch. After repeats for breakfast and lunch, I got inspired to try a new recipe for dinner. So, I stopped at EarthFare on the way home to pick up [...]

Anthony and I went out for a casual dinner tonight at TGI Friday’s…not normally one of my favorites, but it isn’t far from our house, and we wanted something nearby and casual. I ordered the chicken salad with pecans, cranberries, mandarin oranges, and crumbled blue cheese + a nice glass of Cabernet. With “mood” lighting. At [...]

Happy Christmas Eve! Yesterday was a whirlwind…busy full day at work, still not feeling my best, doctor appointment, plus we hosted a dinner party at our house. We were non-stop until nearly midnight last night when I fell into bed. Luckily, I have the day off today while poor Anthony is working a half-day. Yesterday [...]

I am up way past my bedtime. One day I’m a 4-year old and the next day, I’m 65. I went out into the craziness of the mall today for 2 hours, but I got a lot accomplished…I think our shopping list is 99% complete. Lunch, at home, was a leftover black bean and spinach [...]

Where do the hours go? We had a great girls night dinner tonight. Once a month, 4 dietitian friends and I get together for dinner. It’s always so much fun. Tonight was at a great sushi place, Nama. I started with a house salad and a glass of Cabernet. And, a delicious crunchy shrimp roll. We [...]

Simple dinner of grilled salmon, roasted broccoli, baked sweet potato, plus a nice glass of Chardonnay. Simple and perfect. The salmon filet and sweet potato were both really large, so I cut each in half and put half in a container – tomorrow’s lunch is ready to go. Is anyone watching Sing-Off? I have been [...]
