The time has come in our house to introduce J to the potty. This morning J and I made a little trip to the store and got a few supplies to start the adventure. A package of “big boy” pants (aka pulls ups), a little seat for the toilet and a timer. We are just going to start putting him on a little at a time and the timer will help with that. Today he sat ok but there was no potty dance…we will get there eventually! Patience is a virtue!
Before our trip to the store I had another breakfast of VOO this morning..YUM!
I had it along with a steaming cup of joe.
This breakfast will be making A LOT of appearances on the blog this summer. I just love it!
After rushing around in the store and then heading home it got pretty warm. I needed a little more power this morning so I made a pit stop at Starbux for an iced latte.
I never finished my whole cup of coffee this morning since I was trying to get J to eat his breakfast so it got cold and I dumped the rest out. So this gave me what I was missing and then some!
Lunch this afternoon was quick and simple.
A nuked organic sweet potato smeared with a Laughing Cow Cheese wedge and topped with baked beans and a side of steamed fresh broccoli! Delish!
and some juicy and cold watermelon for “dessert”.
While J took his nap in the afternoon I got the itch to bake…so I did. Some yummy High Fibre Double Chocolate muffins actually.
I had to make a few adjustments because the batter seemed a little to soupy to be muffin batter. But they turned out pretty darn good. I did cut down on the sugar a little as well. Since my applesauce was sweetened.
I did not have enough chocolate chips so I also added peanut butter chips to make up for it.
The end result was moist and a little gooey from the melted chocolate chips. But I was a little disappointed that the peanut butter chips did not melt as well..not sure why??
They were so good that I ended up eating two!! Bah…I paid for that one. My tummy was pretty darn full with all the fibre these babies pack.
So I prepped supper for the hubs and J and then I went to an early Body Pump class since there was no way I was going to be hungry for supper at 6 o’clock!
When I got home from Body Pump I was hungry for supper. I had a great workout and upped my weight a little this time for my squats. Oooooo..I felt the burn!
Supper tonight was tacos!
I fixed two for myself on sprouted grain corn tortillas. I topped the ground bison with avocado, romaine lettuce, and salsa. I cooked onion and tomato into the meat with a few random spices (ancho chilli powder, granulated garlic, cumin, oregano, sea salt, pepper and red pepper flakes). It was spicy but very yummy!
Now I am going to go and soak in a hot bath and rest my muscles!
Night!
