Over the Freeways and thru Seattle...

So how is everyone? Hopefully great! How was your weekend? This is what mine looked like:

Alot of this going on

                                                      Took a trip to Seattle with my date!

                                                           Shopped at my favorite thrift strore!






                                            and did more of this to Bellevue Square
                                   After roaming around the mall, in which my date had never been
                              there before, we ate at the Greek Kitchen, YUM!
                         We both ordered the lamb and beef gyros, Delish!
                                             We finished off our din and went back to pick one of offsprings!
                                       Went to church, btw, AWESOME WORD! Then off to Seattle again
                                       for a birthday party and dinner at my inlaws house! We always have
                                         blast when we get together!  Came home, really late and played
                                          on their day off from school.

Before we ended the nite, one of kiddos suggested we make Snickerdoodle Scones, as long as he helped!



                                          So here's the recipe, I modify it, due to my son's non-dairy diet

I hid the N. facts, it's a dessert, and not healthy in the "good fat" arena!
So here is what did not happen this past weekend:

not alot of tv
                                                            and not alot of running, sad face!

Hope you all have an awesome day today, Be Blessed and Be a Blessing!

What's Up?

How was everyones week? Ours was really busy, with kids school activities, neverending errands and oh yes we feed them too! There are just some weeks when I don't feel like cooking!!!  But, I'm a June Cleaver in todays world,  I love to feed my tribe!

Every Friday nite we have pizza from Papa Murpheys, movie, with homemade popcorn! Salt,salt and more salt! It has been our family nite since our 1st was born!

Which leads me into Saturday, as I roll out of my bed and try to run of the excess bloat, blech!
Running seems to wring me out some, but then I add strength training for that added wringing!
and presto, I look like her! I wish!!!!! That picture is inserted in my workout notebook for inspiration, not really to look like her. She is pretty amazing and so is her story. Well, I'm off to run and go about my day, everyone Be Blessed and Be a Blessing to others!
