What's on your (PHOTO) Friday Menu?

I have read all 4, and Holly gets stronger and stronger by the book. Love her!

And, holy crap that a huge Toblerone! I like raisins, but prefer the classic flavored one. Did any make their way home with you?

Absolutely not. I gave them a wide breath, because if they jumped in my bag my next step would have been the green couch. Zero will power.

Good morning. It's raining. My phone and watch say no rain today, but there is wet stuff dripping from the sky, so I think they are wrong.

I did well yesterday sticking to plan. No actual exercise, but I did get lots of things accomplished and I'm happy with that. Today brings prep work for our dinner parties tonight and tomorrow. Where can I get a sous chef? I actually love the prep work and the planning. We need to just freshen up the guest room upstairs and we are ready to entertain.

QoTD: I'm reading Cottage by the sea. It's a no brainer beach read and I don't know that I would recommend it, but also, it's totally non offensive. I'm glad to have an easy read once in a while. I've got The Wrong Daughter queued up next for reading and the only think I've been watching is Botched (don't judge me) on tv late at night and Top Chef during the dinner prep hour.

Bites today

B: egg, bacon, veggies

L: turkey and cheese

D: Cod with leeks and tomatoes. Dessert is Salted Margarita frozen bars. I won't have more than a bite or two.

This is my grand dog Bella living her best life on my no dogs allowed couch.

How does Bella get along with your dogs?
I love a dog *****bels and doesn't follow the couch rules.

They all love each other. Our boys are very dog friendly. Monte is just maybe not so much people friendly.

Good Morning Queen JB and Meneurs,

Great to see everything went well yesterday. So glad it didn't get ugly. It is Friday but that does not mean much now a days. I have the caretaker during the week, but it is left up to me on the weekends. We are going to a wedding and spending the night, so this means getting her all situated before we head out. She also needs a haircut tomorrow morning. I plan on going to the gym first then doing her hair. We need to leave by 1:30 I want to get in the room a soon as possible to get Rudy acclimated before we head to the wedding. Ron can run back and forth to the hotels to check in on him. We will be gone for less than 24 hours but it has now become a big process with the dog and mom.

QOTD: Nothing I have very little time. I am still a drop-dead survivor fan and 90 dayer but other than that I just do not have time. Most things I DVR and Play while I am putting orders in here at work. I am also caught up on the Masked singer.

Accountability: Great because I had not time to eat. I didn't get home till 8:30 and I had to bake cookies for work by the time I got done I was too tired I walked the dog and went to bed.

TSS: 6 years 4-months 14-days 161.8 Lowest (129.4)

B: Coffee with SF Coffee mate Chocolate Caramel creamer

MS: raspberry (do you pronounce the P?) Greek yogurt and berries

CB: Coffee with SF Coffee-mate chocolate caramel creamer

L: crockpot pizza and snack select

D: Crockpot pizza or crack chicken

Exercise: dog walking

Water and Vitamins: On track. I take a Bariatric Advantage Ultra multi w/iron I use bariatric advantage Calcium chews and 500mg of Magnesium. I also use MiraLAX and fiber in my first coffee of the day.

Have a great weekend my friends.

Brightest Blessings,

Chrissy

Here is the only photo new on my phone it is the Galbi (Korean short Ribs) I made last Sunday.

I know I've said this before, but you are such a good daughter. You do all things for your mom without a complain.
I am lucky my brother lives close to my mom and checks on her daily, otherwise it would have been very difficult.

I just finished Holly and preordered You Like It Dark that comes out May 24. I watched every episome of Beat Bobby Flay and want to find something I like as well. I remember wondering how anyone could possibly watch cooking shows which I thought would be as boring as watching bowling shows. But the cooking shows have some great characters and as intense competition as sporting events.

We watch Beat Bobby, too. It's interesting and a fun neutral show for us.
