Sunday Morning - Roll Call

[diwitch]

Happy Mothers Day !


Just thought I would start things off this Sunday morning. It's a grey rainy day here in VA, but it should get better a little later. It stormed yesterday afternoon & we even got hail.

Hope everyone has a wonderful Mother's Day.

Good Morning Everyone.. Happy Mother's Day!. I GOT MY GRILL! Now I just need some recipes on what to do with it.. meat and veggies It is the sauces or spices I don't have a clue...

I was hoping for a whooshie this morning just to start my Sunday off good..after my horrible Saturday...but I didn't get it..but thats okay I am not up..and Tom is due today... So I shall not complain...lol

I want to encourage everyone to stick to your legal foods. Going off plan will just make you feel terrible. And we have to remember not to celebrate with food.. Food is just fuel for our bodies

I plan to have a big Salad at the family thing..since nothing there will be legal.. and then I will come home and eat a legal dinner too..

Have a great day!

Re: Sunday Morning - Roll Call

Yeah, we got hail, bout 10 o'clock or so, I wouldn't have normally been up..but my kitchen sink picked yesterday to develop a huge leak and the guys were just getting back from Winchester after picking up more parts. They did finally get it fixed but they were driving back when the hail started, lol. It was pretty good sized too, like..walnut size.

I love grilled veggies, squash, eggplant, onion (although onion is kinda carby, who would have thought that!). Is it a gas grill?

Re: Sunday Morning - Roll Call

Yes its a gas grill... But I dont' think they got me a tank...so I will have to get one of those.. The kids went shopping by themselves with there own money..they are 17 and 14.. So they wouldn't have know to buy a tank..lol

Re: Sunday Morning - Roll Call

Awwww, that was sweet of them. I think most gas stations around here carry those tanks, don't they? And I am not sure, but don't you have to be a certain age to get them?

[SandyL2002]

Re: Sunday Morning - Roll Call

I know the one up the road has them... I have no idea if you have to be a certain age...that is possible...

I use to have a grill and hubby took it over to the hunt club and it got broken..He better not touch this one..lol

Re: Sunday Morning - Roll Call

Morning everyone! Happy Mother's Day!

My dh is so sweet, he bought me beautiful flowers from our bird

Spent all day yesterday planting, great exercise and our yard looks great! Having an early dinner with my parents, and the restaurant menu is not looking good...should be interesting!!

Sandy, enjoy your grill...we LOVE grilling!!! The best recipes I've found are simple...just some EVOO, salt, pepper and maybe garlic...YUM!!!

I seem to be down that pesky pound that I am blaming these bcp's on...lol.

Re: Sunday Morning - Roll Call

Morning, Ladies. Just the VA guys so far this am, huh? We got a very short storm, but no hail. Usually Culpeper gets all the bad weather, just north of us. We are sort of sheltered by the mountains, I think.

Happy Mother's Day to you guys, too. I gained 1.5 pounds, but TOM is here, so I am not worried about it. I am happy because I put on a pair of 22 jeans to wear today and they fit beautifully! This is the first pair of jeans I have worn in about 8 years that do not have an elastic waist. YAY! I am also wearing a top that I have not worn in about 2 years. Maybe we'll take pics today during the family thing and I can post them. Maybe we'll see a difference.

Sandy - congrats on the grill! You'll be able to have all sorts of yummy legal stuff this summer. We have a grill, too, but it didn't get used much last summer. I told dh that we needed to make sure we use it this summer because it will be good for me!

Di - my husband was in your neck of the woods (sort of) on Tues and Wed. He delivers to Target and went to Winchester twice this week. He spends lots of time on 81 between MD and Stuart's Draft (near the junction of 81 and 64 - what's that town? Starts with a W. Oh well.).

Have a lovely day, everyone!

Re: Sunday Morning - Roll Call

Sassilee, that was very sweet of your hubby. Birds are like kids, aren't they? I used to have a cockatoo, blue front amazon and a gold wing macaw. Unfortunatly when my ex and I split up, I couldn't take the birds and I still miss them. At least I know they are well cared for, he was much nicer to animals than people.

Obkbbby, congrats on the size 22 jeans, I can't remember the last time I wore jeans without an elastic waist either. Since your hubby delivers for Target he will probably really be in my neck of the woods soon, we have a new SuperTarget that is supposed to open at the end of the summer. I can't wait, hopefully I won't have to drive to Winchester every weekend then.

Although in the summer, we do go to alot of the farmer's markets on the weekends, there are so many around here, I love it.

LOL on the bird.. I got two cards from the dog too... Hubby brought in Chicken Salad and Egg Salad from Farm Fresh thinking I could have it.. I said I am too afraid to try it cause I don't know what is in it.. and I am not willing to mess up my 18lbs off.. I fixed myself a Omelet for breakfast He also gave me some tulips this morning.. I LOVE tulips

Happy Mama's Day, Moms!

And good morning to everyone else!

I slept in way too late for my taste, was hoping to be up by 5:00, didn't roll out of bed until 7:00. There are now eggs and cream cheese warming up so I can make a bunch of those "bad boy danishes" for today. Some of us want to try them out as buns when we grill out at my brother's today. The first batch is going to get garlic powder instead of onion powder, I'm not big on onion rolls. Anyone know of a more neutral spice I might use? Oh, like simply salt itself... hmmm...

Your opinions please! Making three batches here so I can experiment a bit at the same time.

Re: Sunday Morning - Roll Call

Good morning, Everyone. Weigh day for me. I'm down another 3 pounds, which puts me past the halfway point! Yay. In theory, my TOM is due any day, so I think this next week will probably not be a great one. I'm usually really irregular, though, so it may not even happen this month. We'll see. I am actually amazed that I haven't plateaued yet. I think it is because I am exercising so much, but I know that it is coming sometime. I am still averaging three pound losses per week. Pretty incredible, really. I'm not complaining, just kind of surprised!

I hope all of you moms out there have a nice Mother's Day!
