Plugging along...

Yup. It's been a week and a half. I warned you... I forget to blog!

Let's see. This past week, we went on a ride along the Truckee River. The plan was to go from our house in Sparks to the river to downtown Reno. Round trip, it would have been right around 21 miles.

Yeah... best laid plans and all...
Some simple math: 5 bicycles... which make 10 tires total, yez?

And a one... and a two...

BUBBLES!!!

Look! An update!

Yup... it's been almost a year. I suck at blogging... I just get *oh shiny*

Yeah, I know. But, in all honesty, the blogging just tends to be what falls by the wayside when I have other options! I'm going to try (yet again) to be better.

So. What have I been up to this past year...

Procrastinators Unite!

Yeah... so that wedding cake for Saturday...
I didn't get it started last night. Last night, I got home late from work, got things organized, watched Glee, & then went to bed. *sigh*
So, I've got the little tier all baked. A pan for the center tier is currently in the oven. I've got batter for one more pan for the center tier mixed that needs to be cooked tonight. I had a minor oven malfunction... and lost a pan of the large tier. Note: always check the knob of the oven when you are working near it. That way, when you manage to knock it up by 100 degrees, you'll notice BEFORE you burn a big layer of a wedding cake! *grr*
The Roomie has decreed that both the lemon poppyseed & chocolate layers are yummy (I made cupcakes from left-over batter). I had a teeny-tiny taste of both, to verify flavor, but wasn't tempted by any more than that. Even though they are VERY good. ;-)

Dinner tonight was simple, since I knew I was going to be in the kitchen all night. I put Spicy Turkey sausages in the FlavorWave & baked fresh cut sweet potato fries with a spray of olive oil & dash of salt in the oven (to pre-heat it for the cakes, you know).

So. Other than the nibbles of cake tonight, I have eaten completely Clean all week!
Tomorrow is my weigh-in, and hopefully we'll see some results from this new way of eating.

Off my rocker...

But, I guess there's nothing new there. :-)
Today at work was a crazy day... But, I kept my office door shut most of the day, which cut down on the amount of random visitors, which increased my productivity immensely! Of course, I was so swamped that I managed to miss one of my snack times. *sigh* What can ya do?

Dinner tonight was steak & zucchini. Easy-peasy.
The hubby has gone to Chicago for the week, so I'll only be cooking for Sue & myself... But *shrug* guess that means more left-overs for lunch!

I think I'm about to run into one of my biggest challenges so far in the Clean Eating process... I make cakes and I have a wedding cake that has to be made for this Saturday. Cake smells sooooo good when it's baking! And my cake is awesome. I'm going to have a really hard time not eating cake scraps...
