RISE N SHINE - Saturday check in

Good morning friends!!!!

Not sure yet what I'll get into today, at the very least a serious house cleaning.  I have dog hair and dust everywhere. YUCK!  When the DH gets up he promised to help, we'll do one room at a time until it's all done.  So looking forward to that - should not take too terribly long.

If the weather cooperates I will be getting some pool time in. YAY.  And if it's a nice evening we'll have some friends over for grilled chicken, grilled corn and maybe some fried green beans. Gotta get a non-starch veggie in there yanno? lol

As I still hope to have surgery in 5 or 6 months I've been doing my best to not buy new clothes, but last night I had to break down and get some.  My work pants were all faded and either too big or too small so it was time to get a few new pair.  I hate that black pants fade so easily and I do like to look nice, especially at the office.

Have a great day all!

Good morning Angie!

I plan to get the cleaning done early so I can enjoy the rest of the day relaxing watching movies with hubby.  Hubby has to shampoo the kids carpet in their rooms today and tomorrow he'll do the family room.

Hey I love fried greenbeans  the chicken & corn too but those fried greenbeans yum!   Save me some ok? lol   Have you ever had fried green tomatoes? I never had that but I am dying to make it since I have a whole bunch of tomatoes growing in my yard.  I hear it is yummy so I have to give it a try.

Girl you gotta look good for the office so a few new pants is nothing!   Girl 4 to 5 months will be here in no time. Hang in there!

Have a wonderful day and weekend.

Hugs,

Cira

Sounds like a wonderful day in store for you!

I should clarify the fried green beans are not quite what they seem....

Take canned green beans (or fresh if you feel like cooking that long) drain them.....  in a fry pan, melt about 1/2 stick butter and add minced onion, garlic, brown sugar, bacon bits and cayenne pepper until all incorporated.  Add the drained green beans and coo****il hot and wilted. YUM. Can adjust the ingredients per your taste. I like mine to have a bit of spice to them. ;)  Probably not too WLS friendly tho. LOL

I was thinking of the fried green beans like the fried green tomatoes with flour and cornmeal. Yeah not WL friendly but a few would not hurt. Pre surgery I would have a whole big plate full! 

I will try your way with the fresh green beans sounds good! 

Many months post-op they'd be doable with Pam and the brown sugar/splenda blend...YUM, I'll have to try this!

Morning...if I were at home it would be cleaning and such.  HOWEVER...since I'm L.A. I'm going to the beach!    Again HOWEVER...that means the dust and dog hair will have gone more than a week without me home.

Your  day sounds great though!  Have a good one!

Hi Ang!  Like I told Cira, it's afternoon now - where DO the weekend days go?  I'm getting ready to go meet Darla, Kathy and Debbie to see "Julie/Julia," after seeing "G-Force" this a.m. with Mom & KB.

Have a great dinner!!  Sounds like a relaxing evening!!

I'm with ya on the black pants fading - hence why I have 20 pair! *rolling eyes*
