Thursday Thoughts, August 15th

Happy Thursday a/k/a Friday eve! My thoughts today are on the fact that I just celebrated 10
years of marriage with my sweet husband. I am not sure I could be more blessed than I am with
this man who supports me and loves me. We have been through so much during our time
together, including moving my Mom in with us and then losing her. Being with me after my
son’s multiple hospitalizations for various things. Let me tell you that I honestly don’t think I could have done or handled all of that without him. He has been my rock. There is no one that I would rather do life with than my sweet husband.

 Even though he really doesn’t need to lose weight, he has been so sweet as to support me when I buckle down to get control of my health/weight loss. He eats what I cook, without complaint.  No fat, low fat, full fat, vegetarian, Southern cooking, he eats it all. He gets up early to go walk with me. I know not every man would do that, but he does.  We took a trip to McKinney during our anniversary week and paid a visit to the place we got married and had our wedding reception.  10 years apart.  We would have gotten closer to the house where we had our reception, but there was an event going on and we didn't want to disturb them.   

 Much has changed with us since our wedding day...weight gains, weight losses, not perfect health, but we've survived.  Hope everyone has a great day!

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

Meal Plan (and make a plan) Monday, April 27, 2025

Happy Monday, friends!  I hope you are looking forward to a good week!  It's time again to share my meal plan for the week.  I suspect breakfasts will be fend for ourselves.  Last week, I think we all ate a lot of cereal.  Lunches this week will likely be chicken salad and a pasta meal.  I, unfortunately, got hit with a round of vertigo at the end of last week that is wrecking havoc on my ability to move too much and it stinks.  I will be going back to what the allergy doctor suggested a couple of years ago...using my daily oral meds (Xyzal and Mucinex), as well as nasal rinse twice a day and nasal allergy spray.  While I know that vertigo for everyone isn't caused by the fluid in the ears, it seems to be for me most times when I've had it.  It's miserable when I can't even sit up without feeling nauseous. Anyway, for that reason, our meals for the week are going to be relatively easy and may even be repeats of meals I have had on the plan th...
