Menu Plan Monday - July 18, 2022

Hey y'all, Happy Monday!! It was a little bit of a stressful weekend. I stayed at home while my husband had to take his dad to the hospital due to come cardiac problems. They were both gone all weekend, but arrived back at home late Sunday night after a quick treatment for dad! All is well now and everyone is back home! 

I stayed at home to take care of the dog and horses and was able to catch up on a lot of neglected things around the house. I organized the pantry, cleaned out the refrigerator and did a closet clean out. I was able to list some clothes and shoes that I no longer wear on Ebay, so hopefully those will sell soon. I took a few items to the donation bin in town as well. 

Since I cleaned out the pantry and refrigerator I have a grocery order placed today. Here's what we plan on eating this week:


Monday - Hamburger patties with onions and mushrooms.

Tuesday - Keto Huli Huli Chicken with a side salad. 

Wednesday - Grill steak with roasted okra

Thursday - Oven baked trout with a side salad

Friday - Keto Pizza Casserole with a caesar salad

Saturday - Keto Beef Stroganoff 

Sunday - Out to eat or leftovers 

What are you having this week? I hope you have a happy Monday and a blessed week!

Friday Favorites - June 23, 2023

Here's some of my favorites from the week. #1 Whoop Band I have a couple of friends that wear a Whoop band which is pretty much a health / fitness tracker but with tons more data. I've been wearing my Whoop for about a month now and using it to improve my overall health. It's helping me see where the problems are, where improvement is needed and measures overall health. These bands are worn by a lot of pro-golfers and athletes and digging into the data can help you analyze patterns so when there's a change in your norms it gives you a heads up. Some of the pro athletes noticed their respiratory rate and heart rate variability was out of their norm several days before being tested positive for COVID. Since I'm a data nerd this band has really been a favorite lately. Here's a screen shot of one day of mine; clearing improvement is needed! #2 Margaritas If you're local to the Victoria, TX, area, you have to try the margaritas at Hacienda Restaurant in front of

Hello Monday & Day in the Life - Weekend

Linking up with Hello Monday   and NJAM   for a two in one post. Recapping our weekend! Friday was Matt's birthday, so as soon as I got home for work, he opened his gift and then we met some friends for dinner at Gonzales Bistro. Talk about delicious! This is the third time we've been to this new restaurant and it never disappoints. Three of us had Alaskan halibut and one had salmon.  Saturday I spent more time working in the garden until it got super hot. We had a high of 92°F! I planted a few more pepper plants I picked up at HEB as well as some cucumber plants and seeds. I put up the trellis for the cucumbers and also decided to plant some luffa seeds and pole beans. Growing luffa and pole beans are new for me, so we'll see how it goes.  Saturday afternoon, Matt's parents were at home, so we invited them over for birthday cake. The birthday guy requested tres leches cake and it did not disappoint! I had a local bakery make it and they did a fantastic job.  Later in t

Friday Favorites July 15, 2022

It's Friday, most everyone's favorite day of the week! This week was pretty standard around our house with going to work, enjoying dinner at home each night and our in-laws even shared some bbq they made with us one evening. Here's some of my favorite things from this week! Summer Fruit Watermelons are ready in my garden and they have been such a treat to have during this hot weather. It's been over 100 degrees each day and cold watermelon from the refrigerator is so refreshing. This is the Charleston Grey watermelon variety; they are large oblong melons and very tasty!  Exercise The elliptical really is a great workout and something I can do at home. I workout after dinner in the evenings and it has been too hot out to go for a walk outside. I put in my ear buds and catch up on my podcasts and enjoy the air conditioning!  Podcasts One of my favorite podcasts lately is the Sorta Awesome podcast with Meg Tietz and her co-hosts Kelly and Rebekah.
