It's all a matter of perspective!

How does the time fly by so quickly? Where does it go, and what have I done in the last eleven days since I've posted? Hmmmmm....let's see

- wash, wash, wash

-cook, cook, cook

They are sparkly and beautiful!!

-buy shoes for wedding. Hope I can stand in them all day and still look good.

-make toiletry/essential item baskets for the bathrooms at the weddings

-make 150 paper cones filled with lavendar, and tied with bows and monogram labels, for the guests to toss at the married couple when they leave the church

-research and order wines/champagnes for the wedding ( a new task that we volunteered to handle   and pay for)

- continue with all the office tasks of running my husbands two, and soon to be three, practice locations

-plan rehearsal dinner, get invitations printed, addressed and mailed

-order place cards, gift bags and flowers for rehearsal dinner

-get my hair colored, cut and eyebrows waxed

-help my boys get packed and sent off to Montreal for the weekend bachelor party

-host my nephew and niece for a few days at my house

-take my  nephew and niece to the shore with me for a 4 day weekend

-get up at 5 am with my niece and her friend to watch the sunset on the beach

-dinner and drinks on the bay with the kids, my husband and mom


-bike ride, dog walk, and hang out on the beach daily with the kids

-buy some new beach chairs to replace a few that have broken

-grocery shop, cook meals, and wash during our shore weekend ( includes washing all the sheets and towels when everyone leaves ( UGGHHH...so many!!!)

-go to Ocean City for the night to ride the wild rides on the boardwalk with the kids


-send out my fathers day cards to my dad and father-in-law

- take my dad out for a fathers day dinner this past Sunday with the rest of the family

-drive up to my brothers today to be with the kids, pick my nephew up from camp and then take him to a friends house

-continue reading the Fifty Shades of Grey trilogy ( on book three and still in awe as to how this writer knows about all this stuff!!)


-read wheat belly...or at least parts of it

- try to keep up with all the blogs, and comment when I can

-try to stay within my BFC guidelines

-get my annual pap smear and yearly gyn checkup

-get fitted for my rehearsal dinner dress and gown for the wedding

-get ready to pack up to leave Wednesday for a long shore weekend

-make these delicious chicken parm burgers that were featured on The Chew. They are dipped in  a little panko crumbs mixed with parm cheese, but I doubt it would even be a full carb serving. They are really good. I ate mine without the roll. I also made mine with half regular ground chicken and half ground chicken breast.


- make grilled romaine lettuce, topped with some carmelized onions, sauteed with chopped bacon, to which I added some balsamic at the end. Top the grilled lettuce with it and add some crumbled blue cheese and/or some caesar dressing. So good. To grill the romaine, chop in half, brush the cut side with olive oil. Grill until nice and charred. You can chill and eat later or eat right off the grill. The inside of the lettuce is still cold, but the outside has a nice grilled flavor. I am eating it this way the whole summer!!


I'm going to stop now because even I can't take anymore!!!That's it...I'm exhausted and going to bed. Hugs and love to you all!
