    Yay, it's post-a-thon time!   I did not see a chat thread so I thought I would start one. 

     

    How's everyone doing? 

     

    Did you have a good weekend? 

     

    And, of course, my favorite question -- what is or was for dinner?!  Laughing

    Heylo!  I'm feeling a bit blah today, my head is on the verge of exploding.  Weekend was pretty boring, took my husband to the airport early yesterday.  That explains my dinner choice: chicken nuggets.

    hey hey! I am fab-U-lous...today was really busy at work so the day flew.  This weekend was FANTASTIC because a) I picked up my dress (YAY!!), b) went to a post-st. paddie's day party and saw friends I haven't seen in a while and c) spent all day Sunday along with my FI (this is rare...his mother lives with us...long story....we never get time alone anymore).

    Dinner was Swiss Chalet - hooray for not cooking once in a while!

    How is everyone else doing??

    Hi guys!

    Just got back from walking the dog before the rain comes... and currently procrastinating on doing homework and wedding stuff.

    Tonight, I'm making breaded chicken tenders for dinner (http://www.foodnetwork.com/recipes/rachael-ray/parmigiano-and-herb-chicken-breast-tenders-recipe/index.html <--- like Rachel's recipe, except without the sauce).  Also will be making a mushroom rice side. Mmm.

    Hi there!  I am doing well-a bit tired today.  The weekend was great!  My brother got married on Saturday and it was such a nice time.  Dinner was chicken tacos mmm so good!  Can the weekend get here so we can go to our engagement party?!

    Today has been good. Lots of nice chatting with coworker. Want to KILL other coworker, but let's just say I'm so glad I don't have to live with her!!

    BF home sick today--and he never takes off work. Going home earlier than planned (skipping errands) so I can take care of him.

    Dinner? Spinach corkscrew pasta, garden burger, mushrooms  and spinach, all steamed and seasoned with lemon and pepper. I'm doing Weight Watchers, so this is a good WW dinner.

    The weekend was good. We went to a cute daffodil festival at a grange hall, to a benefit performance for a local actor/musician who is going through 7 operations on his  hands after table saw injury. It was a great show and felt great too!

    Just didn't take my kitty out on a walk (yes, on a leash like a dog) so I have to make up for that SOON!

    @sulli301 - It is being thrown by my MOH and mom mainly and my BMs are helping out.  It will be at my parent's house and it looks like it's going to be about 35 people.  They are planning a cocktail party with a signature dark purple drink (TBD) as our colors are plum and silver.  I don't know too much else about it-they have done a pretty good job about keeping me in the dark!!

    These threads always make me hungry too!  I keep snacking so much lately... doesn't help that FI bought 3 boxes of girl scout cookies...

    I bought Smartpop 100 calorie popcorn bags and white cheddar rice cakes for some healthier snacks today.  The rice cakes only have 45 cals per cake, and they're actually pretty good!

    Anyone else have some healthy snack ideas??

    Costco near me sells frozen edamame packets..I love it.  You pop it in the microwave for 3 minutes and sprinkle a little salt, mm...healthy soy goodness.

    @Blueshoes: I have been craving Girl Scout cookies but I haven't seen any Girl Scouts at all lately!  I have been snacking on fruit lately.  It is starting to be in season now so you can get some good stuff at grocery stores.

    @crebre: Go ahead and sleep!  Sounds like you need it, especially staying up all night!

    It was chicken and hashbrowns for us tonight. I tried to spruce up a box of hashbrowns with peppers and tomato, but both veggies were bad (typical in our house). We have good intentions, but we don't eat many fresh veggies and instead I just cover things in cheese. Otherwise, Thin Mints and lemonade.

     

    And I'm glad this thing is going, because I was looking for the chat thread about an hour ago.
