Okay so day one went alright, I went to bed feeling I needed a cookie or something sweet ever so badly but upon waking I feel a little more entergetic. Yesterdy my run down on food. I had all organic stuff, first I just made plain cage free orangic eggs with sea salt and course ground pepper using a non stick butter flovered spray and had an organic apple. I really wasn't hungry until Lucy but when I became hungry I was starving.

For lunch I had again all organic, spinch leaf lettuce, mushrooms, carrotts, cucumbers, and oinion. Mixed with pepper and a drizzle of evoo. It was good and suprisingly filling.

Now supper time I was famished and made grilled shrimp. I prob ate mire than I should have but it was yummy.
Recipe: 1/4 cup of coconut oil
1/4 cup lemon juice
About a handful of fresh cilantro
3 cloves of garlic grated

I mixed it all together and it it sit in aluminum foil for about 15 mins then wrpped it up and grilled it about 10 mins.

Then I had to have a late snack so I made it rasperries. All in all though I think day one went pretty good. Wish me luck today though ekk!!! Enjoy!

Whole 30

Okay Bloggers, tomorrow I start the Whole 30 diet. It's not that I need to diet, luckily I've lost all my last baby fat, but it's more a clean eating type thing I'm going for. I'm not really big on red meats, never have been, so I figure this is something more up my alley cause you don't have to have a certain amount of red meats or anything like that. This basically is to cleanse your body of all the sugar it's been storing and start over to live clean and live happy!! So wish me luck, I'll try to do a weekly if not more overview of the foods I'm consuming and how my body reacts to the dreadful caffeine, sugary with drawls, Oh Gods help me!! Oh and I'm actually going to try to exercise with this you know on a regular basis, not so much like a oh I'm going to get up tomorrow at 5 and then don't work out for a week ha!! Well I'm off. I'll see you tomorrow for an update, have a great night!

Back to School Back seat trouble!

So this morning was my oldest daughters first day of school, pre-k, I know not awesome like kindergarten but she's stoked! So am I! So all morning she's so excited to be going to school, we take her sister to the sitter and drop her off she tells everyone goodbye and we head out. On the 15 min drive to school she starts getting nervous and telling me that her stomach hurts and she wants to go home. Of course like the good mom I am I call my mom to talk her down lol. (My mom is a teacher and deals with nervous school kids every year). So my mum talks to her and she seems great. So I pull into the parking lot of the school and I turn around to ask her if she's read and she throws up! Fanflipintastic!!!! Luckily being as smooth as I am I scream don't get it on your clothes, cause that's what I should be worried about :/ (She didn't, thank the Gods)! After that she's fine and she walks into the school and is ready for me to leave. Am I silly for crying on the way home? She offered me brave powers so I wouldn't cry lol. Oh how I love her and how fast she is growing up. So today I want to say Happy First Day to my little girl and that mommy loves you, and thanks for making me have to scub the floor when I thought I had a day off lol!!

Foods from around the world

Have you ever just wanted to try something just to see if you could do it? Well I have been thinking a lot about food since my parents brought me back a cookbook from their recent journey to Canada. I would like to try new recipes from all around the world something new and different each week from a new place in the world. However, I don't want it to be something I just found off the Internet I want real family recipes that represent that culture. So to you my followers I ask a challenge of you. Present me with recipes that you are willing to share from your culture or heritage and allow me the chance to cook it, eat it and Enjoy! 

Ravioli

Sadly back from vacation :( miss the beach. Oh well it's good to be back in my own kitchen and back to making food, though my fresh off the coast will be missed, yum crab! So upon returning from my vacation I realized I haven't had Italian or a version of it in a while so tonight I made a chicken ravioli  to calm my craving :).

The inside:
2 chicken breast cut very small
1/3 cup kale chopped finely
1/4 tsp oregano
1/4 cup finely chopped mushrooms
2 chopped garlic cloves

In a skillet add evoo till it simmers then add above ingredients and occasionally stir till chicken is done.

Ravioli:
4 egg roll wraps

Put about a 1/3 tsp oil in pan while heating cut egg wraps in half and fill, press down sides with fork. Place in oil and let each side get golden brown, about 30 seconds. Then add all the ravioli s and a 1/3 cup water and cover immediately till ravioli is tender.

Remove and place on plate with your choice of sauce and cheese I used Prego and mozzarella cheese.

Enjoy!!!

Maybe my next recipe will be Lobster, all ready miss it!
