It rained and rained and stormed and rained some more. There are only two things to do when it storms, and I did a lot of both this weekend.
Best Pizza Ever
I’m prone to exaggerate, I realize this. I own up to it. I say a million when I mean 12. I say forever when I mean 20 minutes. I can safely say that this is the best pizza I have ever made. Teriyaki, shrimp, onion, spinach, and garlic pizza with mozzarella and goat cheese on wheat crust. PT and I split it and it was gone in 7 seconds. I mean, like 25 minutes.
After that pizza, though, I needed to cool it. I have gained three pounds this winter and I know that isn’t a lot, but you let three pounds slide one winter, two more here, four more there and you are on The Biggest Loser.
Breakfast Burritos
Saturday brunch was breakfast burritos. As you can see I only had one, but put the equivalent of a second burrito on the side, without the tortilla, saving me 200 calories. The burrito insides were potatoes, lentils, corn, fresh PT guacamole, tomatoes, and spinach. These were excellent! And I’ve never made them before.
Bread-less Sandwich
For dinner I dropped some bread again, making this not only open faced sandwich, but bottomless sandwich, too, saving me about 400 calories. I dug around in my freezer and found some fake chicken and bacon, so we made chicken bacon guacamole sandwiches…
Crock Pot Back in Action!
… and a side of Lentil and Spinach curry. It doesn’t look like much but it is one of my favorite crock pot recipes.
Avocado 4 Life
Sunday for dinner we had an avocado left over, so we made avocado egg salad, tuna salad with avocado, and carrot fries. I had mine open faced, using the mushroom part of my bread loaf because it wasn’t getting thrown away!
So I tried not to be a fatty, though it was hard to do since between eating I just sat and watched the first season of Lost while knitting.
Needle Holder Thing
For some reason the picture I took of my sweater dress progress didn’t work, but I did get this little gadget from Lucinda yesterday that holds your needles together so your yarn can’t accidentally fall off of them while traveling, or while your cats play with it when you are at work.
My sweater dress is coming along! I’m about to seperate the sleeves and I can’t wait for it. I have 366 stitches on my needles right now, and that is a lot. I’m going to get a picture to work for next time so I can show it off!
