Today was a great productive day. I didn't do what I 'thought' I would do, but I did get so much accomplished. I woke up early and started out on a run, about 3.5 miles, at my nice mostly slow pace, but the heart rate was up.
Brian had the kids out at the lake to go fishing, so I ran past the house and back down to the lake to see what they were doing. Our neighbor who works for the park, told us that the fishing is better on the other side of the lake, so we walked around the lake. Shortly after, I left to walk home with Zach and thus I got a nice walk on top of my run! yeah for me...
When I got home I started working on some menu planning. Made a really delicious loaf of bread, bannana oat nut... yummy...
After I hit the grocery store, I started another pot of Magic Mineral Broth, and now it's smelling SOOOOO good... then I started to make dinner.
I am sad to say that dinner took twice as long as I thought(it was a new recipe) you can get the recipe here. It was a moroccan shepards pie... I will post a photo and you will see why I DONT decorate cakes (Are you reading Tammy??) dont laugh too hard.....
It is topped with white and sweet potatoes. It was VERYgood. However, it took forever to make.... I could have just spooned the potatoes on instead. The recipe called for soy burgers crumbled, but I didn't use them I used a crumbled soy instead. Personally I would have preferred it with beans instead TVP would have worked too. It was very good and full of fresh vegetables... yummy...
Here's a photo of it after we bit into it:
I have a small amount of reading to do for my class, about 4 pages, I will finish it up in the morning... It feels so good to accomplish so much. I was happy to get lots of things done around the house. Starts off the week really well.

Good job, Carrie - I know what you mean. Seems like when you accomplish a lot, it gets you in the mode to do more!
Thank you for the recipes ... I'll be checkin' 'em out!
PS ... banana nut oat bread sound de-LISH! Do you have a recipe for it?
Carrie- That looks like MY COOKING! I always say when I make pies that I don't put enough LOVE into them! LOL Looks delicious. I will have to try out the recipe. TFS!
I see that you are using a soy product in this recipe. Now I may have missed it in a previous post, but are you a vegetarian?
I swear I do not remember you mentioning it.
That is my new goal, to get back into my vegetarianism. Wish me luck.
Yes, I am a vegetarian... note no meat in any of the recipes I shared...
Good luck.. I know vegetarianism is not for everyone, but it works for me!
I am glad that you made good use of your time, despite of your "disappointment". Sometimes things don't happen as we hope they will and we just need to move on to the next task.
I am proud of you.
You did a great job! It looks yummy! I've learned that no matter what you do, there's always someone who does it better. So as long as your happy with what you've done, that's all that matters. = )
It sure tasted good.. lets just say it really didn't look pretty after the leftovers were put away! At least it was yummy!!!!
