playing catchup

Today’s my birthday!  I’m not telling how old I am, but let’s just say I’m getting close to 30. (yikes!)  Since it’s also father’s day, I’m not really doing anything for my bday.  The hubby and I already celebrated so I’m good to go.  Birthdays aren’t really that big of a deal for me, so I’m not really into celebrating that much.  Probably mostly because no one ever remembers my birthday (except for my family).  It’s always like that when your birthday falls during the summer.  I love sharing my bday with the summer solstice, but no one ever remembers my bday.  I think I also share a birthday with Nicole Kidman and Prince William (swoon).

Playing catchup on yesterday.  Yesterday I woke up kinda late so I had a quick breakfast before heading out for some grocery shopping.

Fage greek yogurt with a drizzle of agave nectar, a handful of blueberries, and a handful of quaker oat squares.  Yum!

Then it was off to the market I went!  Look at all this stuff I got for $45!!

And I picked up these funny looking little squash.   I think they’re called Chayote?  I have no idea what I’m going to do with them yet.  Any suggestions?

I didn’t really eat lunch, I just snacked.  I had a little cheese and maybe a cupcake from yesterday.

I think I had a banana too.  I wasn’t really keeping track.

Then I cleaned the house a little, started some laundry, then settled in on the couch with a book until hubby got home.

Last night was pizza night!

On a (home meade)whole wheat crust I put…

  • pasta sauce
  • spinach
  • onions
  • bell pepper
  • mushrooms
  • mozzarella cheese

Then I made a little salad with cucumbers and strawberry tomatoes with a little drizzle of italian dressing.  It was soo good- those tomatoes were so sweet and tasty!

Now that I’m caught up from yesterday, here’s what was a scramblin in my skillet this morning…

  • eggs
  • turkey sausage
  • a few really small red potatoes
  • a sprinkle of aged Wisconsin cheddar

WOW!  SO good, but I could only eat half, so Justin had the rest of mine.

Oh, and some coffee from my wonderful French Press!

Well, that’s all for now!  We’re headed over to the in-laws for some Father’s Day celebrations!
