It’s Sunday night – Yuck! I am not ready for the real world to be back tomorrow. I had such a great time that I just want to keep going. Oh well. I will have to tough it out the 2 1/2 weeks until Christmas break.
Yesterday we had a fun day hanging out at my parents and having dinner at Cindy and Tom’s. The meal was great but I forgot my camera. Then this morning we woke and went for a run then a long walk. It was the perfect start to the sunny day. We filled up on a big brunch of English muffins and veggie omlettes before heading back to Columbus. We went to Brady’s parents to decorate their tree on the way home. Then we ran in our house so Brady could change for his soccer game, and we were off to the field. I hadn’t been to watch in a while, since they usually play late games, so I was a supportive wife and went to the game. I actually really enjoy going – especially watching indoor because it is so fast paced!
We came home from the game after a quick stop at Trader Joe’s for some simple dinner ingredients. I threw together a perfect meal in literally 5 minutes.
Here is what our dinner’s and tomorrow’s lunches consist of:
Brady’s dinner. This consisted of two freezer packages from TJ’s.

Pretty good nutrition facts for a frozen dinner that was about $3.
By mixing those two together in a pan for about 10 minutes and adding 1 egg to make it a little more fresh, he got this:
I could not figure out what I was in the mood for – I was strangely not hungry all day. I had eggs and toast around 11 and then never got hungry. I think the baby is taking over my stomach. I did decide on green beans (frozen, not canned – and not mixed with mushroom soup either) with quinoa. A weird combo I know. It hit the spot though!
My final plate:
Yes, that is a lot of beans. Now I have leftovers for lunch!
how do you rinse your quinoa? i lose so many grains.
