Sunday dinners

I love having people over for dinner. I love to cook. Our cousins Bejan and Lily came over Sunday and we hung out the whole day. Literally. Church. Lunch. Flying kites. Dinner. Time flys when your kicking it so we decided to make dinner. I love that she will try anything.

I made Jamaican beef patties w meatless crumbles and I roasted sweet potatoes. I'm just now becoming a fan of kale. I ate it raw! (Can you imagine) I had made some yam noodles and a homemade sauce w some veggies and served it up. Pokey was organizing the garage and Bejan helped so I knew they were hungry. I made spicy chikn patties for them to make sandwiches. Along with everything else on the table. It was definitely buffet style this Sunday lol.

I was worried their boys wouldn't want to eat. Nothing but veggies but they ate. The liked it. That makes me happy.

Lily made aquafresca and with the leftover juice we made paletas. Mango and pineapple. So good!

21 Day Sugar Detox

Monday after Super Bowl some friends and I started this detox. I was nervous, excited, anxious and scared. I didn't know what to expect. It went well.  I are a lot like this. No sugar meant no bread or processed foods. I lost 9lbs. It felt good. It did change my way of thinking about sweets. I don't crave them. I guess that was the point lol.  I'm glad it's over but I've been following the diet for the most part. 

Is your fridge a garden or a morgue?

Pokey and I love to grocery shop. It's what we do lol. I really love that he is cool w the fact that I'm not eating meat and don't care for it in the house.

I need to give that to her. And BEER!!! Bobby gave it to Pokey  Second shelf: Salad stuff. Spinach, spring mix, feta cheese, avocado and tomatoes  Third shelf: Green grapes, mushrooms and corn. HEB 5 for $1  Fourth shelf: Eggplant (Pokey's) red grapes, watermelon and cauliflower. Pickled jalapeƱo. Pokeys choice.
