Goodbye and Good Riddance 2013: That Was the Year That Was
Every year we watch the Charlie Brown special, do the Snoopy dance, wish everybody a Merry Thanksgivukkahmas, and thank our Secret Santas in the good riddance thread. Which is this one, in case you were wondering. Out you go, 2013!
Thank you, Amy!
I hit the Spartacus/Buffista jackpot yesterday with three.
Anne, though you are in St. Louis, you are never far from my heart!!
Aw, thank you! I do hope to get back out to the West Coast for a visit one of these years.
I need to see you when I swing through one of these times, Anne. I drive through STL about two or three times a year. Admittedly I do a lot of cursing about your traffic and construction on my way through, but still!
Yeah, the roads around here can be not great. Anyhow, I'd love to see you if you have time when passing through! I've also got a guest room if you want to make it an overnight.
Since this was the original smoothie thread, here I am to say I'm still having them, a month later. Not every day, but several days, usually after I go to the gym. I've probably gotten more veggies in the past month, just by virtue of cramming spinach in a smoothie, than I had in the previous 3 months, and that is sadly not an exaggeration. (Well, I'm also digging roasted Brussels sprouts and cauliflower, too. So veggies are creeping into my diet in more than just smoothies.)
But seriously, I'm liking these smoothies. So tasty. And coconut oil has become my new thing.
Steph, are you using a regular blender, or some sort of special one, or what? How does that handle spinach?
Steph is me!
Since my friend gave me a Vitamix, I am a blending fool.
AND, I'm a veggie hipster with the roasted brussels sprouts and cauliflower.
Today I found a recipe for 'buffalo' cauliflower 'wings'. Gotta give that one a try, but it's more work than the yummy roasted recipe, so laziness might prevail.
I mentioned in another thread the massive deal on coconut oil I found at Costco. Man. I feel so fortunate!
All this, and eliminating grains has led to me dropping 18lbs since December. I'm finally getting back to my normal weight, which is quite heavy for 5 foot nothing, but it's where I am comfortable. I'm just relieved to be letting go of the grief weight. Phew.
