I LOST 6.6 POUNDS!!! YEAH!!! OH HAPPY DAY!!! I am not sure what to say about that but I am really proud that my hard work is paying off!! 😉 Anyway, I am tired, I have been working out like a fiend today. I have …
I am off to bed early tonight, I am taking a new fitness class for the next 6 weeks, and it starts tomorrow morning at 6:45 AM. EEK!! What I do to meet my hidden inner self! 😉 It will be worth it!! Tomorrow is also weigh-in day, and I have high hopes!! So we will see!!
Anyway, have a FABULOUS evening!!!
It is a crazy hot Summer’s day, I have a yummy veggie soup cooking on the stove, I have taken a nice cool shower, and I am now sitting in my pj’s while watching Oprah off of my DVR. Work was really long today – …
I don’t have much to say tonight. I have been having problems with my blog, I think WordPress went down earlier for a little while and so I am recreating this posting one more time!!! I really don’t have anything witty, or zany to say. …
Ok, not that kind of hump day…hmmm…at least not YET anyway!!! LOL!!
I have had a pretty good day today! I just got home from work and finished some house chores. My sweetie is grilling some chicken out back and I have got the veggies all ready to go! YUM! We have some peppy music playing, and every once in a while, Jason will stop wherever I am at, and spin me around so we can start dancing! God, I love that man!!! 😉
Anyway, I will put my feet back on the ground – at lease momentarily!!! I have been doing some more research on Diane von Furstenburg, and I ran across some of her really AWESOME quotes, and I can see why I just LOVE her soooo much!!!
“I design for the woman who loves being a woman.”
“I travel light. I think the most important thing is to be in a good mood and enjoy life, wherever you are.”
“You’re always with yourself so you might as well enjoy the company.”
“Now is the time to become a myth.”
and my favorite that I ran across today:
“Absence is to love what wind is to fire. When it’s a small fire the wind kills it, but when it’s a real fire, wind intensifies it!”
As I sit here listening to “I Don’t Care Who Knows” by Catherine Russell, I realize that life is really GOOD!!! I am so blessed in my life!!!
This is isn’t the best video of this song, and I know the lyrics are really hard to understand, but it is basically saying that “I don’t care who knows, I love my man!!!” 😉 Every time this song comes on, I just can’t help but dance around!!
As for dinner, I am cooking some onions tonight to go with dinner, and I LOVE them!!! They are my favorite vegetable right now!! now I must admit I don’t make them the most healthily, but they are sooooo freaking’ good! !!
Dice one over sized sweet Walla Walla onion, in thin slices. Add butter to pan, about 1 tbsp per 1/2 an onion – depending on size (I add one extra tbsp for good measure)! Cook on med-high until translucent, then turn heat down to low, and make sure the onions are evenly distributed in the pan. Next, this is key – DON’T TOUCH UNTIL BROWNED!!! then flip and do this again, until all slices are gorgeously brown – I do this about 4 – 5 times!!! and I am telling you, the onion is sooooo perfectly carmelized! The onion will have reduced by more than 1/2, so 1/2 an onion is perfect for one person (I can eat a whole carmelized onion as a meal all by itself!!!)
I received a book in the mail today, it is called “Junk Chic”. and so far, I am loving it! I also love that the book cost me less than $5, including shipping and handling! I have two more on their way now, they are both books by or about Diane von Furstenburg – SHOCKED??? No, probably not!! HAHAHA! 😉
I am also going through a bunch of new pictures from our camping trip with my sis-in-law and her family! Some of these are really GREAT!!! I will make it a point to post some of these for you tomorrow!!
Ok, so I realize that my thoughts are just wandering all over the place, but I think I am going to take this new found energy and go for a walk!!!
Have a FABULOUS evening!
I have discovered my new muse! Diane von Furstenberg I know that Diane has been around forever. She is a fashion designer who knows how to design for a woman’s body. She is also the famous designer that invented the iconic wrap dress, which unfortunately, …
On my way home tonight I decided to pick up salads, and baked chicken for dinner, that way my sweetie could take the evening off from cooking tonight! So, after I got home and we had our dinner, I decided to watch some episodes of …
OK, so where do I begin!??? Well, wait – before I start, I wanted to say thank you to my two youngest sisters, Jennifer & Trina!! I had to call them super late on Friday night to get some help getting un-lost – I KNOW …
