Yesterday I went to Trader Joe’s regular grocery store picked up a prescription tanned (in preparation for our impromptu vacation that’s coming up) cooked cleaned parented got in a 3 mile run and a 20 minute at home workout and then I still had to go to my paid work.  So pretty much I just sat around on the couch eating peanut butter caramel chocolate chip cookies (vegan, GF).  Kidding. Sleep?  What’s that? I have been making food on the fly like salads with fresh veggies

Raw Vegan Chocolate Coconut Snowballs From my last post, Easter Baskets and Celebrating, it was interesting to hear your thoughts on Easter and religious holidays and what holidays, if any, you celebrate and identify with. And what fun memories many of you shared about your childhood Easter baskets.   To everyone who’s celebrating Easter or Passover, I hope your holidays are happy and fun-filled! Questions:

  1. Have you been running around in Turbo Mode at all lately?   If so, what have you been turbo’ing through? I like to take time to smell the roses.  Or the hibiscus flowers. This week just hasn’t been that kind of week.   Oh well, soon enough I’ll be on a little vacation but up until then, duty calls.

  2. Fill in the Blanks… The best thing that happened to me today is _____ The chore I am putting off is_____ My favorite dessert of all time is_____ My answers: I got 5 hours of sleep.  But not all strung together.  Better than 4 though. Changing the sheets on my bed. No Bake Nutter Butter Special K Bars with Chocolate Frosting

Not sure they are my favorite of all time, but peanut butter, peanut butter cookies, brown sugar, vanilla, topped with chocolate makes me incredibly happy.  This week at least. Enjoy your almost Friday!
