Just some Randomness

Aug 9

Well as life goes l have not blogged in a few days.  Oh well..I do what I can.  So I will just highlight a little of what I have been up to lately. :)

Lets see…well Friday was pretty low key.  Saturday I went for an early morning run  and did 4KM.   Then I had an eggie breakfast to start my day.

IMG_1173 This would be 2 farm fresh eggs scrambled with spinach and topped off with an luscious organic tomato.  I am just loving these breakfasts lately!

IMG_1176 Also a piece of toasted Ezekiel break with a little raspberry preserves on top.

IMG_1175 I was feeling some hot green tea this morning too.  Yum!

After breakfast I got showered and headed to the SPA for the day.  I booked a massage and a facial for my Birthday!  I was excited!

P1050398 Hi! This is the only picture I could sneak…the dressing room was empty at the time.

It was a such a relaxing day!  My massage felt great and my facial was awesome!  When I left I felt like a million bucks! 

So I came home and made fish tacos for supper on my new Griddler!

IMG_1187 Whoop…whoop!

IMG_1191 The Griddler in action.  This would be tilapia filets coated in an awesome marinade from this recipe I found.  I have used it a few times to make this and it is de-lish!

IMG_1195 The toppings of romaine, cilantro, red onion, green onion, avocado and tomatoes.

IMG_1194 Some very tasty organic salsa.

IMG_1198 We also popped open a bottle of Fetzer Gewürztraminer…it was fantastic!  I am not a white wine drinker but I REALLY liked this one and so did the hubs.  I will definitely buy this one again.  It was crisp, peachy and sweet and tasted great with the spicy fish tacos.  I really like Fetzer wines they have some of my favourite reds.

IMG_1202 All assembled and ready to snarf down…it was so good.  I had two!

Breakfast on Sunday morning was some French Banana Toast.

IMG_1206 I bathed two slices of Ezeikel bread in mixture of eggs, splash of almond milk, mashed banana, cinnamon and vanilla.

While my slices were cooking before I flipped them over I sprinkled them with some coconut and a little chia seeds.

IMG_1205 I topped them with pecans, black berries and a drizzle of Agave syrup.  Mmmmm…this was so yummy!

IMG_1208I enjoyed it with a cup of hot coffee.

Sunday was a get things done kind of day.  I took a break from exercise to give my legs a rest.  I also made a trip to the farmers market and picked up some fresh veggies.  I however forgot to take a picture of the farmers market haul but instead how about some nice candid’s of my still beautiful birthday flowers that I am admiring everyday! :)

IMG_1217 They are still holding up extremely well.

IMG_1215 Gerby daisies are one of my favourite flowers.  I love the bright and vibrant colours they come in.

Oh…looks like I did manage to take a pic of my lovely avocados that I picked up.  Just waiting for them to ripen!  Then I can start consuming…Yum!

Which brings me to Monday…today!  This morning I got up bright and early and had a very refreshing run!  It was lovely.  The sun was just starting to come up as I started.  I did a quick 4K.  My runs in the morning tend to be short since I need to be back at home before the hubs leaves for work.  But I really quite like it that way.  It gives me a great boost to get my day started.

IMG_1229 For breakfast this morning…I had Eggs!  Again!! They just taste so darn good lately…I just had to have them this morning.  Plus I really wanted to top them with the organic heirloom tomatoes I got from the Farmers market.  They were perfectly ripe and sweet…so very good.

IMG_1225 I had my spinach eggs with a few black berries and a piece of toast smeared in raspberry preserves.

IMG_1232 Some hot coffee in my New York mug…wish I was there!  Love that city! 

After my breakfast my morning started off with a bang.  It was a busy one.  We hightailed out to the mall to meet with J’s Developmental Aid to work on his walking.  The mall is a great place to take him in the morning since it is pretty quiet and he has a ton of room to use his walker.

P1050402 Plus he get rewarded with a few rides for all his hard work! :)   My Mom also came with us this morning to do a little shopping and visit.

When we got home I put J down for a much needed nap.  He has a bit of cold right now so all his work in the morning wore him out!

I decided to do a little baking.

IMG_1237 Some Super Charge Me Cookies!  I LOVE these darn things and have a real hard time keeping my hand out of the container sometimes!

While I was baking I made myself a pot of lovely Strawberry/Kiwi herbal tea in my new tea pot.

IMG_1235My Mom got me this lovely teapot for my Birthday present while we were at the mall today.  I have wanted one for a while but I did not want to spend that much on a teapot for myself.  She asked me what I wanted and this is what I led her too!  Heeee!  It is a Bodum Assam Loose Leaf Teapot and I LOVE it!  I think there will be more green tea in my future in the mornings!

IMG_1241Cookies warm out of the oven…the best way to have them.  The chocolate chips are still nice and gooey!

IMG_1239 Best cookies ever!  I even managed to not have one until after I had my supper tonight.  Whoaaaa…that is a first! 

Supper tonight was a very yummy meat sauce with rice pasta spaghetti.

IMG_1249 Ingredients for my special sauce was:

1 15 oz can of crushed tomatoes

1 lb of Organic Ground Bison

mushrooms (about half of the small package chopped)

1/2 of a white onion diced

2 cloves of garlic minced

fresh oregano from my garden

grated zucchini (evil laugh…muhawwwww)

1/2 a orange pepper diced

dried basil and Italian seasoning

salt and pepper to taste

I cooked the meat first with the onions, garlic and oregano and I also put a splash of Worsteshire sauce in there too.  I really like the depth of flavour it gives the meat.  Once it was browned I basically threw everything else in and let it simmer away.  It smelt amazing while it was cooking.

We had it with some rice spaghetti pasta.

IMG_1255 The bubbling sauce of yumminess!!  Hmmmm…I cannot find a picture of my beautiful bowl of pasta…but take my word for it…it was yummy!

Well there is my last few days in a nutshell!  I am bushed and need to get myself to bed!

Good night peeps!
