What's on your Saturday menu RNYers?

Yes I'm feeling better than I did Monday

Today is going to be busy. Getting ready to leave, cleaning up the yard, banking stuff, an ice cream social this afternoon... I am not a fan of busy weekends.

Qotd: I listen to heavy metal music. People are usually shocked when they first learn that my music collection contains such greats as Killswitch Engage, Slipknot, and Mudvayne. I grew up listening to oldies then country with my mom. I never liked popular music. In my early 20's I worked at ice rinks and my own musical taste started to form and it stuck.

Accountability: Very good.

Today, like a few of you, I don't know. Even breakfast is up in the air cause of running around :-( I am aiming for 800 calories and 80g protein. Also, I won't be having any ice cream at the social.

Just a quick note here! I lied! LIED! I did have a few tastes of ice cream at the social! Mainly because I know that my friend's ice cream making skills are unbeatable and it is a once a year thing... also I sorta wanted to know if it would cause dumping for me.

I am glad to say it didn't cause dumping, but once again I sorta didn't enjoy them as much as I had in the past. I mean they were good, one flavor was inedible to me (everyone else raved about it). Still I just kinda can't remember what the big deal with this stuff was before... does that make sense?

Morning folks!! I've been on my run and have even done my yard work for the day. NO other real plans. I want to get a little trellis fence to border some plants I have.

Last night I spent time with a nephew who just moved here. It was great- I'm so proud of him. He's super focused on college (he's 22 so it took him some time to decide what he wants). He has his own place, and I'm just glad I live nearby so I can help him as needed.

Qotd: guilty pleasure is reality tv. I'm currently hooked on 'rattled' a show about new parents adjusting to parenthood.

m1: egg, 2 turkey sausage, 1oz ham

m2: protein shake

m3-4: no idea

Good Morning Erin and Menu Family!

Saralisa is heading off to Royal Family Kids' Camp tomorrow for a week to be a volunteer counselor. It's a Christian camp for abused & neglected kids in the foster care system.

Give Saralisa a BIG hug from me and tell her that we are proud of her! I'm glad that she is able to help!

Thank you very much, Janet! I told her you said that and she really appreciated it.

It does sound like it could be a difficult job. But I bet it is also rewarding and Saralisa will be able to make a positive difference in some children's lives.

Yes, it is, Liz! I'm so proud of Saralisa for doing this!

Good morning RNYers,

Last night was the viewing and service for my cousin - that was tough. Today I am chilling and getting some things done around the house and this afternoon I am going to relax and enjoy the pool that I have not spent one day in since we opened it. My MIL is being discharged from the hospital and DH is going to take care of getting her home and settled.

QOTD: My guilty pleasure is pinning recipes from Pinterest and never getting around to making them!

B: Premier shake

2nd B: a little bit scrambled egg on a mini naan bread with a sprinkle of cheese x2

L: not sure

D: zucchini and corn pie (recipe from Pinterest) because we have an overabundance of zucchini right now

Have a great day everyone!
