I am off today and had lunch at one of my favorite local restaurants with one of my favorite local moms whose has a very cute baby the same age as Iz. The idea was to have a quick bite then come over to my house and play, but both kids were tired from all the flinging things off the table at the restaurant and required immediate naps. Lunch was good - a big salad with goat cheese and a couple of pieces of bread. I just never know how to count when I eat out. I just googled them to see if nutritional info is available - nada. I guess I will count 3 points for the bread, 5 for the cheese and 2 for the salad dressing? I also had a coffee, 1 more point. The salad dressing is always a question mark. It was an orange vinaigrette which could have lots of oil, or little oil, who knows?
Tonight we are making sloppy joes with soy crumbles. We have tried this before with mixed success, we found one brand of crumbles that we really liked and one we hated. Of course I can't remember the one we liked, so back to square one.
Update: The sloppy joes were great, we can add them to our weekly routine. I cleaned out our pantry today, which is very small, and tossed a large garbage bag of things, mostly half eaten cereal boxes and cookie mixes. I made enough room to relocate the baby food into the pantry, freeing up a little more counter space. My next project is to hang the pot rack I got for xmas and clean out my pot area. I would like to be able to store Iz's bottles, cups and bowls in there along with all the tupperware that now lives on the top of our fridge.
BTW we accepted the offer for the work so we will be having handy-guys in our house all week. Hopefully by next week, I will have 3 usable showers.
