Day something or other....

Oh wow! I have 8 followers!! - Can you tell I have never done this before?! lol! (small things excite me!)
I'm definitely not a daily 'blogger' that's for sure, but figured I should probably get on here and update what little old me has been up to the last few days.

Well, no conquering my street again, but inspired by the forums, I have gone out and purchased my polar FT7 and have managed to set the time and enter in my basic stats - one day I'll learn how to use the rest of it. I have also acquired two new books for the bookshelf, although they are not spending much time there at the moment - the Crunch Time Cookbook and Losing the last 5 kilos (yeah, I'm a way off, but it has the shopping lists in it and this lazy little vegemite needs that at the moment). So I'm starting the actual menus on Monday (yep, we all say that, but I am!) and for the next few days will just potter with whatever recipe takes my fancy. I made the eggwhite omlette with mushrooms this morning and it was delicious - and so filling, I struggled to get through it. Currently simmering away on my stovetop is the spag bol - I need to ease hubby into this I think and it is smelling devine.

I've also ordered Michelle's dvd pack from Big W Entertainment online so will be eagerly awaiting Mr Postman next week.

Still haven't told hubby about signing up and I've decided that I will wait until the end to confess my sin, seeing as he will now just think I am following the books (hehe!!). I did tell my mum though and she was eager to join in too, but she is going overseas for 4 weeks of the round so she really wants to join in next time.

I've also connected with some Cairns people too and we're in the process of planning some meet ups. The excitement is still here in me - I just really hope it stays!

  1. Hehe love it! My other half won't even try the food (INCREDIBLY fussy eater!) but I seriously LOVE LOVE LOVE the recipes in the Cookbook. My fav's are the grilled salmon and the chicken rice paper rolls. My fav breakky is the ricotta and pear toast. If I don't have pears, I just make it without, just as freakin' amazing!
