Fast Friday


Look what I made!  Vanilla with vanilla frosting cupcakes courtesy of my Magnolia Bakery cookbook.  It's mom's birthday on Sunday, but given the weather I likely won't be home.  I used some new gel dyes and wow, that purple is PURPLE!  The pink was much better on top.  They taste great too.  I think even better than what I remember in NYC.

I didn't make it to the office today and I'm glad I chose not to go.  I got so much more accomplished at home.  Including my bosses annoying emails showing me storm trackers for the next couple days.  I'm all ready to go with the exception of a quick load of laundry I need to go start.  I could be out of my house in less than hour tomorrow.  I hope that's good enough for him.  Tonight there was already a reported tornado and hail in southern MN.  I think I could be making several stops on this trip out.

I lost 1lb this week, which considering what I ate, is remarkable!  I'm super proud of myself and less than a pound to go to hitting the 25 total lost.  Yay me.  The BFF gave me some tips to stop my blisters too.  Here's hoping for pain free walking tomorrow.  I'll need to put in the long 4.5 mile after the yummy pizza I ate for dinner.  I was so pleased with myself as I ate.  I savored every bite and stopped and waited to see if I wanted more if I was full.  I had 1 more piece after that and I still stayed in my points for the day.  Woo Hoo!   It's the little victories in weight loss that keep me motivated.

 Ya know, searching for an island and stuff

Slept 14 hours and at 10:30am my sis found her in the kitchen saying nigh nigh
