Good morning menu friends! Karen, thanks for getting us started on this Wednesday!

I'm back to work this morning but from home so that's nice. It should be a relatively calm rest of the week with a lot of people out for a long holiday break. I saw a ton of movies this weekend -- all very good! Mary Queen of Scots; Mary Poppins Returns; A Star is Born; and I watched Bird Box (really intense but occasionally made me think of the one where Mark Wahlberg was terrorized by the wind and then it lightened it up for me); I watched season 4 of shetland with a free BritBox trial and the first two episodes of A Discovery Of Witches...I loved that book series; the first episode wasn't great but the second one picked up. I guess I will be keeping Sundance Now through Jan so I can see the whole season.

QOTD - I told my sister I wanted warm pajamas and she got me a fleece snoopy adult onesie. I love it; it's warm!

I had an unfortunate gingersnaps incident on Christmas Eve and yesterday I just ate too much, but it was all protein based -- even the 2 helpings of protein pudding. (My first time making that, it was a nice treat). I'm back on the straight and narrowish today. I still have some of my goat cheese sweet potatoes -- if I skip yogurts on the days I have the sweet potatoes, I can stay under my carb counts but I'm trying to decide if I should just enjoy them today and then freeze/toss the rest. Any one know how mashed sweet potatoes freeze?

Menu

838/97/22 will be my calorie/protein/carb count

Exercise today will be a workout video (I'm feeling kick boxing ish) and maybe an evening walk.

Have a wonderful wednesday all!

The seetpotatoes should freeze fine. They may separate a bit but will stir up and taste delicious!

I watched a few mins of Bird Box on Netflix on Monday....it was only for 10 mins while I was on break so I need to give it more time to see if I'll watch the whole thing.

I think freezing sweet potatoes would be similar to pumpkin? I have frozen canned pumpkin that I had left over from baking and aside from separating and becoming a little runny when it thawed it was fine when I mixed it all back up.

Thanks ladies! I will freeze the left overs; they were too good to toss but too tempting to keep in the fridge, lol.

Yes. If you're like me it would be disaster to keep them in the frig. I have no restraint when it comes to somethings.

How was Mary Queen of Scots? Can't wait to see this!!

It was really good! The costumes, the performances, just fantastic. Historical accuracy was not fantastic but I knew that going in...and they did a good enough job with it that I let that go. Mary QoS had such a dramatic life!

Good to know. We plan to see it this weekend.

oh man I heard they were making a series out of a Discovery of Witches but it was only going to be available in the UK so I was resigned to not seeing it LOL...I can't sign up for anymore streaming services that I just don't have time to watch but hopefully it will be available in the US eventually...I am intrigued...i LOVED those books!
