Monday May 1st

I know it has been some time since I have posted.  I am determined to do better with that.  May is going to be a better month for me.  I went to weigh in this evening.  I currently weigh 198.6.  I know I have been here before, but I do have an NSV to share.  I know there are those of you that have been in the same boat, for years I wasn't able to cross my legs.  I was able to do that yesterday and kept my legs crossed for quite awhile before I even realized it.  I am determined to track my food try to move more this month.  It seems to be easy to let those bad habits slip back in.  

 I was so excited last week to be in attendance at the Joy Conference for the UPCI North Texas Division.  It was such a great time!  I was able to hear some speakers that I had never heard before.  It is interesting to think that about all the changes that some of our elders have seen in their years.  I am hoping that I can share some of the tidbits that I learned from the services this month.  So many interesting thinks that Sis. Thetus Tenney shared that were truly food for thought.  Okay, so the one thing I haven't mentioned is that I want to try to check in each day in May.  I may not succeed, but this is one of my goals.  I hope everyone is doing well!

What's Cooking Wednesday, May 7, 2025

I hesitate to even call this a recipe.  I have been making this super easy, but versatile recipe for years.  My ex-grandmother-in-law made hers spicier, but for my young one (at the time I started making this) wasn't a fan of spicy foods.  So I created a cheeseburger variety of the meat pie.  It's simply Grands biscuits, hamburger meat and cheese.  I believe she used the standard biscuit, but I have been using Grands for years.  You can absolutely change this up to use different ingredients, but it's a family favorite so I haven't changed it much.  I may do a different variety soon to bring to you!   You can watch the video here:  YouTube

Picnic in the Park Collab

 S’mores Protein Bites Recipe You can find the original recipe  here  from Six Sisters' Stuff.  The one below is the way I prepared it. Ingredients 1½ cups Simple Truth Old Fashioned Oats ¼ cup crushed graham cracker crumbs ½ cup Simple Truth almond butter ½ cup raw honey ¼ cup vanilla protein powder (I used Orgain Vanilla Protein Powder) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract ½ cup mini marshmallows ¼ cup mini chocolate chips Instructions Combine all ingredients in a bowl or stand mixer until well combined. Roll dough into 1 inch balls and place on a baking sheet covered with foil or parchment paper. Place in the freezer for about 1 hour, then store in a resealable bag or airtight container in the fridge for up to a week (or in the freezer for up to a month). This original recipe says 15 servings.  I am not sure if I used a smaller scoop but I came out with 25 or so.  There were a couple that were smaller.
