Americans do the month, day, and year, but I love the palindrome! So we follow the rest of the world with day, month, and year! We do a lot of things strangely in the United States… metric system, wha? This too many two’s Tuesday started out horribly. FIL had to go into work today soContinue reading “22-02-20200”

Testing Out the New Phone’s Camera
After having the same old phone since 2018, I mentioned upgrading. It actually has a “food” setting on the camera. Which is pretty neat. I have wanted to do more food photography, but I’ve been lazy about creating a backdrop and lighting station for it. From what I can tell, the “food” setting is justContinue reading “Testing Out the New Phone’s Camera”
Egg-cellent Meal Planning
On Superbowl Sunday, I made some eggs for my SIL because she’s currently recovering from major surgery. This one is keto-friendly and was super easy! Egg “Muffins” or “Pucks” Eggs, lots and lots of eggs, about one for each cupcake hole Ham, Bacon, Chicken, or whatever meat substitute you like with eggs Vegetables! I didContinue reading “Egg-cellent Meal Planning”
Happy Chocolate Day
We don’t really celebrate Valentine’s Day. I sent some mini cupcakes and iced cookies to my stepdaughter’s classroom on Friday, since she isn’t with us today. I feel bad the teachers are having to have Valentine’s Day party in class on a Monday. Sugared up kids. BUT at least their snack time and recess isContinue reading “Happy Chocolate Day”
Chicken
Tonight was the Daddy-Daughter dance. So I sat at the local Wendy’s and enjoyed myself some dinner while my SO and stepdaughter had fun. It was relaxing and only about an hour and a half of waiting. I saw a group of girls there who were much older than my stepdaughter and it gave meContinue reading “Chicken”
All the Tea
My MIL loves the Homegrown Herbalist. And my stepdaughter has recently joined us all in loving tea. In an obsessive range. A while ago, while we were at Ollie’s, she bought a glass tea steeper mug/bottle thing. So for today’s lunch, she requested that I make her some tea. There are so many teas inContinue reading “All the Tea”
Low Carb Pays Off?
I scare the crap out of myself this morning. (My meter clock is really bad off right now, I know it says 8:25P but it was sometime in the middle of the night/early morning.) Surprisingly, I didn’t even eat keto/low carb yesterday. I had half a bowl of homemade fried rice. I was super nauseousContinue reading “Low Carb Pays Off?”
Keto “Scalloped Potatoes”
It’s zucchini and squash. Someone said it looked like Ratatouille, but the sauce is what makes it like scalloped potatoes. It’s a really simple recipe that my MIL just jotted down from the internet, but thankfully I’ve been trying to decipher her recipes into something more coherent lately. Typing it up also makes it easierContinue reading “Keto “Scalloped Potatoes””
Chill Day and Art Stuff
I’ve been feeling really wonky lately, so I tried to eat something that was easy on my belly. There are some “instant” udon noodles at the Asian store that are SO SO good.. I packed some for my stepdaughter last week and had some today. The chicken flavor was really good. I added an eggContinue reading “Chill Day and Art Stuff”
Shopping Therapy
One of my medications wasn’t ready last week so I had to go back to the pharmacy to pick up the missing one. (My pharmacy that helps me get my medications for free/cheap is about 45 minutes away.) Since I rarely go to the town and was already there, I stopped at a few shopsContinue reading “Shopping Therapy”
