I had been researching them and they had one for a really good price so I bit the bullet and bought it. We continued our shopping and then went home and I got my car so we could pick it up. I enlisted Nikki's brother Joe to help me hook it up and he did it. For his efforts, I took him and Nikki to McD's to get something and he said that I was the coolest "older person" he has ever met. He is 14 and meant it in the kindest way but I teased him saying I wasn't sure if that was a compliment or not. :-)
On Sunday night, I made some fabulous Banana bread with Flaxseed. They came out very moist and they were quite filling. Making them was a little labor intensive because you have to soak the oats first but other then that they were easy. They have 5 grams of protein 150 cals per serving. You can find the recipe here.
I treated myself to my 70 lb. goal treat over the weekend. I am close and since we were at Santana Row and they have a Vera Bradley store, I decided to get one a few pounds in advance. It is called a Hipster and the pattern is called Baroque.
I loooove the bag. Covet it (but I'd want teal or red or turquoise as the accent to suit my wardrobe). Nice!
ReplyDeleteI will say that you should put it in a place where you'll SEE IT..but you can't USE IT until you hit the goal weight. Come on, no cheating. Let it motivate you! :)
Ooooh, I like Princess' idea! Put it right where you can see it but don't allow yourself to have it until you hit that 70 mark.
ReplyDeleteCute purse!! And I agree as well, set it up until you get there! it wont be long! Way to go on the biking!!
ReplyDeleteOK, so it's agreed - you can't use the purse just yet. Don't you love us? ;)
ReplyDeleteCute pattern. I go through Vera Bradley phases - I think I have two backpack purses and two regular purses. I do not need any more (is what I keep telling myself!).
Cool beans on the new tv, and your installer - lol, what would we do without teenagers?!?
oooh love the hipstre too.
ReplyDeleteand so will you :)
