Rainy Friday

Guess

WHAT???


It's my day off. I have literally done nothing. And I still feel accomplished.

I just watched Alpha and Omega, not all that impressed to be honest.

But I was impressed by this:
I will say, I am probably going to have to grow my children up on goats milk. While it is tasty(and in my opinion healthier), it is different from cows milk. It has a certain bite to it. One that takes a bit to grow accustomed to. But I really do love it. 

It's kinda like greek yogurt with the fruit on the bottom.

Oliver is even a fan. :)



I've also decided I will probably work out.

Gluten Filled Cookies

Totally listening to Alex Clare TOO CLOSE, some how it fits. Total secret that no one knows, this song reminds me of SAA and I. Not entirely sure why, all I know is we aren't as compatible as either of us would like.

(the song came on on random for spotify, just to let ya know )

Well I found out one of the members of the gym is on the swat team for my area, and he is really nice. He was telling me about his dogs and all. After seeing End of Watch I realized how little people do to show their thanks for our local heroes; cops, fire fighters, medics, doctors ect. So I offered to make him some cookies. Since I have never made a gluten free cookie (yet I just went for it and did my classic chocolate chip (gluten filled) cookie. These things used to sell like crazy in high school. The officer requested blue m&ms so I bought a bag and picked out the blue ones, and set aside the red ones to make for the fire fighters.


I really hope they turned out well, I haven't made them in a few years! But I definitely miss baking, and can not wait to fine tune my skills in the gluten free world!!












On a completely random note, I just realized a lot of my relationship problems one: stem from my parents and two: from my lack of self worth.... I'm gonna need to work on that. :)



Hope you guys have a great Thursday!! (it's my FRIDAY!!!)

Soup, Crepes, Spoon full of Peanut Butter

Mondays are usually my cook for the week or at least cook for a few days days. I started off with some egg crepes, I think I used a little too much water. The first one ended up looking like Africa:


The second one turned out much better. The trick is to not use a spoon to ladle it out but to pour it out gently and then move it around so that it covered the whole bottom of the pan. 

 The black been soup I am so excited for!! Two cans, salsa, some gluten free chicken stock, and I sliced some lime to put on top instead of just the juice.

I decided to use some fruit to make a filling for the crepes, its still a little bitter from the grapefruit but I drizzled a little bit of honey on top, not bad. 

Not too shabby.




I posted on facebook a while ago that I was going to start selling homemade marshmellows and I have someone interested, dont get me wrong, they aren't all that healthy, but they sure are tasty!! If you are interested in recipes just let me know!

Oh I died my hair! I almost feel bad, but I am proud of myself I went nine months without dying it. :)
Before:

Don't judge I went to a white trash party! and you can barely see it in this picture so...

pigtails!!


Hope you have a great monday!!
