What's on your Menu today (Monday) RNYers?
Hello Monday Menu Makers! How are you all? I am great! Had a good weekend and I have this Friday and next Monday off so two short work weeks for me, yay. We got a lot of snow this weekend, and of course what does a Canadian girl do when it snowstorms, take her dogs out for a hike of course! Here are the loves of my life, Oliver & Amy
Accountability: I had some bananas bread with a ton of REAL butter on it and OMG YUM it was worth the calories. Rest of the weekend was on plan.
QOTD: If someone's underwear is showing do you tell them? For me its a "hell yes!" I am that person at work that will tell a guy his fly is open, tell you that your mascara is running, that you have parsley in your teeth, that you have a stain on your butt, that you have pen on your face, I will tell family, friends, coworkers, whoever. Yup I am a teller.

Hi Everyone! Oh, this weekend went by too quickly. I don't even know where it went! Yesterday my parents, Grim's daughter and her boyfriend, visited for the whole day. It was a lot of fun. We watched bad horror movies from the 50s and decorated cookies. ICYMI on FB, here are the cookies mom and I made! I still have some practice to get these way better but it was a fun start :)
QOTD: I tell. I had a co-worker with a bandaid stuck in her hair last week (ew!) and she must have been in meetings earlier where no one told her. On the flip side, I looked at myself in the mirror the other day and saw my eye make up running from being caught in the rain, and no one told me.
I woke up feeling really blah today and don't feel at all like eating--it is turning my stomach to think of solid food and I am not sure why. I am going to run with that feeling, and just bring a few shakes with me to work today, but I'll have a normal dinner tonight.
The cookies are too cute but the sugar addict in me would have to eat every single one. It is weird how some days food has zero appeal and is blah and then other days like yesterday it's all I can do to keep food out of my mouth all day. I know it will totally be a lifetime struggle so I just deal with one choice at a time.
Wow - impressive JB! I bet they taste as good as they look as well!
