Whatchaeatin'? {March 11 - March 15}

Ahhhh...Spring Break + Spring Weather + Spring Cleaning = A Happy Courtney. 

I am not a fan of "Spring Forward". Don't get me wrong, the sun is a fabulous part of the day, but I don't really get why we must spring forward or fall back. It just puts us right back to where were were before, right? Bleh. 

My windows are open. I am halfway through scrubbing the kitchen up,down, inside, outside, tops, bottoms, and sides. This kitchen is a dirty kitchen. Not for too much longer. 

It will be sad to see it get dirty tonight when I start cooking....but we must eat GOOD food. Must.

By golly, I finally made those blasted vegetable pot pies last night. Phew. We didn't eat dinner until after 9:00pm, but I powered through and what a relief to mark them off the list. I stayed after work and run/walked FIVE MILES. I wanted to stop so badly after only half a mile, but I started talking to myself, distracted myself with a good show on t.v., and went to town. Is this a glimpse into getting my energy back?! I sure hope so. 

I will leave you with a picture of last night's veggie pot pie.. 

Off to finish the kitchen!
