What I Ate Wednesday, June 12th

Happy Hump Day friends!  I know it's been a minute since I've posted but things have been a bit crazy.  With the crazy storms on Sunday, we've still got some in our without electricity.  My plans for meal preparation on Sunday got pushed by the wayside given the lack of the electricity.

 I all my meals yesterday and I'm pretty proud of that!  My breakfast was a smoothie and a cup of coffee.  My lunch was a salad with spinach, romaine, broccoli slaw, grape tomatoes and 1 oz of diced ham and my Skinny Kitchen Ranch variation, with 2 cups of watermelon for dessert.  Our dinner was fettuccine with Alfredo sauce and broccoli with garlic cheese bread.  Overall, pretty good day.  I stayed within my Freestyle SmartPoints allowance.

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

Savings Saturday, May 3rd

Tuesday: Quantum Mechanics [Puzzle 192], 5 words in 4 minutes. Wednesday: Languages of Africa [Puzzle 299], 6 words in 4 minutes.

I have decided to only do a puzzle on the weekdays, but not the weekends for this challenge.  Why?  Being honest, there are some days/some weeks, like end of the month that get a bit overwhelming.  Only doing a puzzle 5 days per week, gives me an opportunity to do one on the weekend if the ...
