A little bit of my weekend

This weekend was sent in the 254 and was glorious

Friday, the trifecta invited two new peeps, so we had a 5th wheel dinner. The girls; Han, Kira, and myself; made pizza, Italian soda and brownies for Rockwell and Fordy.

Saturday, this happened:

Yes, a true miracle happened in Waco. I also painted a few pieces of furniture, pic to come.

Sunday, Ford and I went to to 1424 and it was divine. I had the best hummus ever! Really, I'm not joking. Hummus usually makes my tongue break out, but not this hummus. The gyros were even better.

Later in the afternoon I took the Brown Bear to the Zoo....too much fun.

One reason why everyone should be friends with the Han

She makes the yummiest lunches ever!!

Han lived across the street  from me for a a few days and invited me over for Saturday lunch. When I walked in she had salmon, cilantro rice, and yummy veggies waiting!

This past Sunday Han made Ford and I a delish salad. Coconut chicken with feta cheese, avocado, sauteed veggies , cucumbers, and raspberry dressing .

oops

Sorry for the lack of posts in February! This has been a fast a furious month.

The McBrayers got married the first weekend in Feb, then a sweet Valentine's Day with the boy, which included me being sick.

We celebrated my nephew's first birthday with 2, yes 2, camping themed partes, and the whole family played Kinnect. All in all in was a great month, I have a goal to blog everyday or close to in March.....wish me luck.

Praise is ALWAYS Necessary

I love this song and it holds so much TRUTH!!! We dance to this song in ZUMBA! I have the best ZUMBA instructors in Waco! If you are looking for a sweet ZUMBA team who want people to be healthy body, heart and spirit, check out ReFit!




Plus, it's fun to dance to! So go Praise HIM, because he is GOOD!!!

Date Night

I absolutely LOVE Wednesday nights, because they are date nights. I usually cook dinner for Fordy and then the rest of the night is an adventure. This week I made Chicken Shawarma. 

I found the recipe here, but made a few changes. Ford really likes D's fries, so I roasted some potatoes for a healthier choice. This will def be a repeat. 

If you are sensitive to spicy food, like me, you can add more yogurt to the sauce recipe or use less Chili Powder. 

What you need:

Chicken

2 Tbs fresh lemon juice

1 tsp curry powder

2 tsp extra virgin olive oil

3/4 tsp salt

1/2 tsp ground cumin

2 tbs of minced garlic

2 chicken breasts

Yogurt Sauce
1/2 cup of greek yogurt

2 tsp fresh lemon juice

1/4 tsp salt

1 tbs of minced garlic

1 tsp chili powder

Other ingredients

Wheat Tortillas or flat bread

Chopped Romaine Lettuce

Tomatoes

Roasted potatoes 

What you do:

1. Roast potatoes in the oven at 350 for 45 minutes. I toss the potatoes with extra virgin olive oil and salt.  

2. Prepare the chicken. Mix the first 6 ingredients together in a bowl. Add in chicken and coat evenly with marinade. Set aside.

3. Prepare yogurt sauce. 

4. Place the chicken on the grill and cook for about 3 minutes. I used a George Forman

5. Warm tortillas in a skillet

6. When the chicken is cooked, top the tortilla with lettuce, tomatoes, chicken and drizzle with the yogurt sauce and enjoy!

Here is another must see....
So sorry for the absence....Promise I will post more soon.

What are you doing New Years Eve?

I hope each of you have a wonderful new Years. I'm not sure if I'll be back on before then. I'm checking out for a night at the lake, dinner with friends, and a party at the duplex. :) Best part: I get to be with Fordy and the besties.

2011, you have been great! 2012, I think you will be better!
