It's Like Pizza

Low-Carb Pizza 
He folds my laundry, makes sure the air filter is changed regularly, takes the garbage out and balances the checkbook. The list of things the husband does goes on and on. I probably shouldn't list all of them, though, you know, in case he decides to read this post. We wouldn't want all of this praise to go straight to his head.

Long story short: I already knew I married a good man. But when I suggested we have low-carb pizza for dinner - pizza that wouldn't have a nice wheaty crust - and my carbaholic husband went along with it, I knew I picked the best husband of all.

Tackling the Laundry Room Part II ... Oh, and Super Bowl Food

Pin It
After: It-Makes-My-Dreams-Come-True Red Laundry Room
The laundry organizer has finally been removed from the middle of my kitchen. Woo hoo! True, I painted only one wall of the laundry room, and it's not even a very big wall. But we had a lot of rearranging to do to get to that wall, and that meant a big mess in the laundry room and kitchen for the last two days.

I'm happy to say, though, that by 2:30 this afternoon the laundry room was put back together. My kitchen no longer looked like a disaster area, and I was able to do a little cooking without the frustration of having to work around the laundry sorter.

Tackling the Laundry Room

Before: Boring Beige Laundry Room
*Sometimes there's a little more to my life than food. Friday's the day I'll share, I mean, most Fridays I hope to share those bits with you. We'll cover crafts, music, travel, who knows.


We got a new business card in the mail yesterday from the good Southern man who helped us buy our house. He was absolutely fantastic, laid-back, honest, knowledgeable and personable, so I'm happy he's kept us on his contact list. The husband and I have already talked about how "when we want to sell this house," we're definitely going to enlist the help of our favorite Realtor.

We're not going anywhere for a while, but we have dreams of a charming Craftsman and built-in bookshelves that we just can't shake. We know we're not living in our forever home.

What I Ate Wednesday: Week 2

Pin It

It's Wednesday! Oh, What I Ate Wednesday, how I've been looking forward to you. How I ever survived without this (what some might consider) silly weekly roundup of what I've been shoving in my pie hole is beyond me. I can't get enough. Thank you, Peas & Crayons!





So here you have it: everything I ate ... Monday, brought to you with play-by-play commentary.

5:45 am - A pint o' water starts my day.


6:10 am - While packing our lunches - yes, I pack the husband's lunch every day - I decide to make the white barbecue sauce we'll be eating with dinner. I like the whisk before putting it in the sink and think the sauce tastes way too apple cider vinegary. But I cover it and put it in the fridge anyway, crossing my fingers the mayo/Greek yogurt just needs the day to balance out the vinegar flavor.




6:15 am - I have 3/4 cup egg whites scrambled with leftover lean ground turkey along with black half caff for my sit-down breakfast.
