Meatless Monday: Black Eye Peas

Today was my first at school allllllll day. It was long but good. I made quinoa w bell pepper and onion for lunch.  Polished nails and practiced acrylics.  The smells are so strong! This mask was a necessity.  I was starving when I got home. I stuffed my face w an avocado and hummus. Amazing.  Pokey made black eye peas. I've been asking him to make beans. He makes them so well. I had 1 1/2 bowls. No judging.  Today was a great day. I'm laying in bed now forcing myself to go to sleep. I need to really get in the habit of resting. :) 

Weekend Eats

Saturday was my first day to come he from work and not go to school. Pokey and I celebrated w a movie and dinner at Brickhouse Tavern. Mushroom pizza w goat cheese and arugula. He shared some pizza w me and he got himself a crab cake sandwich. He said it was good.  Today it was Kristen's baby shower. It was fun!  It was sports themed. It was cute.  Me, Sully, Ashley, Kristen, Roxy and Jaque. We all work together. It was cool hanging outside of work.  I came home and took a "nap" lol. I slept from 5-8:30! Lol. Wrong decision lol. I hope I can sleep tonight.  I roasted zucchini w bell pepper and poblano peppers. I love eating green.  Now it's time for Dexter. 

Give me a Beet!

Pokey made the juice for today. He likes beets "/ He juiced beets, pears, grapes and an apple. It was ok  Reunited and it feels so good!!! Rebecca is back from Europe!  My sister! I've missed her. 

Pineapple and Melon Juice

This is gonna be amazing! I juiced the whole pineapple and half a melon. I love summer. So delicious. 

Meatless Mondays: Spaghetti Squash and Beets

I'm trying y'all. I'm really not a fan of beets. I looked up a simple recipe and it said olive oil, salt and pepper. Oven at 350 for 30 min. My opinion: still taste like dirt :( they are good for you so I will continue to juice and eat them :)  I didn't even realize Pokey got a spaghetti squash yesterday. I roasted it along w yellow squash and it was delish. Roasting is so easy for me.  Side note: I start school tomorrow!!! I'm already and esthetician now I'm getting licensed to do nails. I'm excited to be done w school already "/ I'm not a fan of school. I am a fan of educating myself so I really am excited. I've never worked full time and went to school school full time. Pray for me y'all.  That's my kit!!! Shit just got real lol. 

Juicing is FUN!!!!

No sarcasm. For real. It is lol. I made Pokey's breakfast and lunch.  Lemon 2 apples and I beet. Pokey loves beets. Me not so much but I'll drink them.  There was a little bit of beet juice in the pitcher. I left it and added 4 carrots and 3 pears. Nice color.  You HAVE  to have something green. Today it's a bunch of kale an apple and a pear.  I hope he enjoys. 

Sunday Funday!!!

We went to eat at Villa's. I had a veggie burrito. Did I take a pic? Nope. I forgot. Good conversation. Lol. Afterwards we got snowcones.  Cheers!!!  We headed to the Farmer's Market. Got some goodies.  Came home and washed all our fruits and veggies.  A sink full of water w a cup of vinegar.  Takes time but its worth it.  We are juicing this week. Yay!
