Good afternoon!
I hope no one has had any bad luck today. :) My day is going great! Flying by and I still have much to do. Isn’t that always the way though?
I had a fabulous lunch today!
I had a large sweet onion in the fridge and I made that the centre of the meal. I LOVE sweet onions and I find they taste fabulous in a stir fry. They are the only onion that don’t make my eyes water too!
With some frozen veggies:
I made my healthy, antioxidant packed tomato + avocado sauce again. I LOVE this sauce! I strongly suggest trying it. :)
The sauce:
- 3 Tbsp tomato paste (preferably salt free)
- 3-4 Tbsp pasta sauce (I used organic healthy lovers brand)
- 1/2 avocado, mashed
- Glug of Almond breeze (1 Tbsp approx)
- Pepper + Italian seasoning
This sauce is AMAZING!!! :) I will be making this again and again!
Even Sketchie wished he could have some!!
Other great eats today included 2 ALL VEGGIE Green Monsters (I am now used to these all veggie ones!), Mary’s Crackers (2 servings) and a huge oversized apple. Hopefully I will be glowing come tomorrow from all this great food!
A Lovely Donation To The Furniture-less Couple:
Look what my brother- and sister- in law gave us!
What a beautiful coffee table! I am in love with it. They didn’t have any room in their house anymore for it so they were kind enough to give it to us. They also gave us a small blue couch to match the one they gave us earlier this year as well as a wood coffee table. Thanks guys!! :) Hopefully they don’t want any of it back….tee heee…

Well guys, I have some baking (experimentation) to do now!! See you tonight for my workout and baked goodies. :)
I hope you have a great start to your weekend whatever you may be doing. :)
Question of the Day:
Is there a dessert or baked treat that you absolutely hate even though everyone else seems to enjoy it?
I would have to say mine is cheesecake. I don’t hate it, but I don’t particularly like it and never have! People think I am nuts when I pass it up.
What’s yours?

I’d have to say I am on the same page with the cheesecake. Definitely not my favorite and easy to pass up. I also am not a huge pie fan. I only like the filling and leave the crust! Have fun tomorrow!
have fun tomorrow!!! cant wait to see the pics :)
I hate all pies (except mud pie, which is pretty much ice cream). I especially hate pumpkin pie!
i love that table!
ha – maybe that’s my problem – I like just about all desserts :)
except for gross store bought cakes with rock hard icing. Blech. I won’t waste my time on that.
I do not like oatmeal cookies, yuk… But I like oatmeal and cookies, just separately!
Thanks everyone! I am nervous but Im sure it will go fine! I think I am more nervous than I was on my wedding day! haha
i cant wait to post some pictures!
me too. do not care for cheesecake!
ummm…i like all desserts….sad but true! although i hate the combination of orange and chocolate – does that count?
diana
mmmmmmm dessert. I love it all!! THe more the merrier!
I’m glad I’m not the only one who doesn’t like cheesecake! I thought I was because everyone around me loves it.
I don’t care for most desserts and I really don’t like cookies or cake. I would much rather have dark chocolate truffles and a glass of Cab or champaign and berries. I do have a gluten intolerance and never had many cakes or cookies growing up, only fruit.
I hope you gargled with mouthwash after eating all of those onions. ;)
I love desserts, but when it comes to tiramisu ~ yucky!
Correction on my name: one of my daughters bumped my arm while typing Ha ha
I love desserts, but when it comes to tiramisu ~ yucky!
Ha! I hate cheesecake too! I also don’t care for creme brulee or any kind of custard-y type desserts. Also, not a fan of bread pudding. But…….anything chocolate or peanut butter I’m all over :)
Looks like you are all set for that shoot! And lucky you even got an extra day to squeeze into the dress!
Are you going to be able to show us pictures from your photoshoot?! I hope so! :)
A dessert that I hate..hmm…strawberry shortcake because I don’t like strawberries?! :) Hehe
Yes I will be showing MOST of the pictures- there will be LOTS! I will likely upload most of them now that I am using the amazing Live Writer! Easy as Pie :)
I am GLAD I have an extra day to fit into it! lol. Although I was looking forward to splurging on goodies tomorrow night! I guess I will have to wait :)
My day’s pretty lucky too!! :-D
**Dessert I hate = I honestly cannot think of one, haha!! :-D
Haha love the blonde moment with the date of the photo shoot, but I’m glad you have an extra day!
I really really REALLY don’t like chocolate cake. People say I must not be female, but I don’t like it at all!
Lemon meringue pie. Like yourself, I don’t hate it, but I’d rather not eat it!
Any type of cakes. I hate frosting especially.
donuts. I’m sorry, I grew up on an island and we just didn’t eat them. I had my first one in college and was underwelmed.
I don’t like custards or Lemon Meringue pie either!
I also am not a huge chocolate cake fan myself!
growing up we would always ask for ‘white cake with white icing’ :)
Those oil sheets SAVE MY LIFE. haha I don’t know what I would do without them.
I hate brownies (even though your’s looked totally delicious!)…they are just soo monotonous to me. Nothing special.
Same with me with the cheesecake! I’m not a huge fan either! Steve loves it though!
woohoo for the shoot being on Sunday!!
BEAUTIFUL coffee table!
I don’t particularly hate any desserts, but I’m not big on moist cakes as they seem a bit oily and gross to me, most cream filled things as it makes the treat too sweet, and most pies as they also seem to be too sweet. I do enjoy the pie crust and mild pies like pumpkin..but pies like blueberry & cherry are just so sweet it’s icky!
I used to like cheesecake but then I spent a summer baking it weekly (I worked in a resort kitchen as a pastry chef). It’s such a finicky dessert to make – I swear it cracks if you LOOK at it the wrong way.. lol! I absolutely can’t stand lemon meringue pie. Yuck! Everyone I know loves it though.
Count me in as hating custard and any creme brulee desserts! I also dislike bread and rice pudding pretty intensely… My favorite dessert is warm cookies straight from the oven!!
I’ll eat most sweets and baked goods, but I don’t like chocolate/fruit combos. Especially raspberry and chocolate, ugh!
I don’t really like pie (except key lime) but I think mincemeat pie is totally disgusting. I like everything in mincemeat pie, but put it together and it makes me want to gag.
I’m a little late here (I checked out the first post and got hooked lol) but when I read your question at the end the very first thing that came to mind was cheesecake. I really don’t get the hype over cheesecake, it’s not even good!!! I don’t understand why people eat it. I don’t hate it but it’s so not worth the calories.
