KarateNurse: Snow Day!

Snow Day!

It’s a snow day!! Yay!!! A great excuse to stay in my jammies and crochet all day!

Now that I work from home, I love it when it snows! It’s so beautiful and makes everything quiet!

I started yesterday off with oats and protein. If you have missed how I like to eat my oats from previous posts, here is how I do it. (I don’t like creamy oatmeal.)

I cook old fashioned oats, with just enough water to cover them, for 4 minutes, in the microwave.

Then I let them sit for just a minute, to soak up any left over water, while I mix up one scoop of chocolate protein powder in a separate bowl (in my case, a very large coffee cup!).

I pour the chocolate protein over my oats and WA-LA it’s like cereal with milk!

I love it! I can eat it hot or cold this way.

We received our bodybuilding.com order! We got vanilla ice cream and double chocolate protein powder and a whole bunch of free stuff! Justin is modeling the free t-shirt and he was super excited about the free razor he received (those puppies are expensive!)!

I snacked on part of an apple that was left over from Justin making a protein shake.

It had apple, grapes, carrots, spinach, vanilla ice cream protein powder and milk. I just had a taste and it was good!

Then it was time to eat the usual second breakfast of egg whites. This time I opted for no turkey bacon and had gluten free toast and grapes.

My next meal was brown rice noodles with tomato sauce, a little parmesan cheese and green beans. (It was about 5 oz of pasta.)

and Key Lime Pie for dessert!

Then it was time to watch the play off game! Go Chiefs! Piper decided to watch the game with Dad.

Brutis couldn’t care less!

By dinner time, the buffalo chicken (recipe courtesy of Vann) that had been cooking all day in the crock pot was done and it was delicious! The food scale is back! I had 4oz of brown rice, 4 oz of buffalo chicken and then loaded on the ice burg lettuce! It was really good!
