Great Day

Thanks so much for letting me know how you feel about and how you take photos in restaurants.  You've all helped me gain a little courage and I'm going to give it a shot.  I'm meeting a friend for lunch on Friday (just at the grocery store), but I'm taking photos!

The day started without blueberries.  All out.  But a grapefruit is almost as good and was a welcomed substitute to my Dorset cereal and skim milk.  I know it's sideways....darn work computer.

I had the rest of yesterdays Luna bar mid morning.  The cranberry is pretty good, but I do prefer bars with chocolate.

Lunch was great.  More of the homemade soup and a nice salad of mixed greens, carrots, avocado and cucumber with Renees Japanese Ginger dressing.

I had an apple in the afternoon.

I'm in a gym rut.  I'm bored.  So I decided to go home for a hike instead.  It was so great out.  Warm-ish, sunny, and the lovely Jazz (AKA: Mamma dog) decided to join me.

She wouldn't really pose for the camera.  She looks sad, but she really isn't.  We had a great hike.  Through the muddy pastures, through the woods, around the old corn field.  I got a good shot of our farms from about half way back to the woods, I like this pic.

Then Jazz and I went to see the sheep and puppies.  The lambs are really getting big, as are the pups.  They are just squealing cute!  Love love LOVE them.  I'm disapointed they won't be living with us much longer.

I was hungry when Jazz and I got home, so I snacked on some raisins, almonds and strawberries - YUM!

It was spaghetti night at our house.  I wasn't feeling noodles, so I used zucchini noodles instead.  Easy as pie with a mandolin slicer.

I sauted the 'noodles' a little, the topped with sauce with ground chicken, mushrooms and peppers.  Really great.

There was also a bowl of frozen yogurt consumed somewhere around 9pm.  Why is it so good?

St. Patrick's day is also our Engagement Anniversary.  I tease The Shepherd that he proposed then because we met in an Irish pub.  True about where we met, but not the proposal part, just coincidence.  When he came home in the evening he brought me 3 lily's, totally unexpected.  Love him.

See the grow stand in the background?  Soon it'll be full of smiling happy seedlings!

Overall a great day!
