Update on my 101

Getting started on my 101 in 1001 has been easy. Part of me actually feels like I can and might finish a majority of this way too soon. Maybe I am just feeling over confident though.

In these last 2 weeks I have managed to make a few pinterest recipes! I made Butterscotch triple chip cookies, crock pot ravioli, crock pot chicken caesar sandwiches, crockpot brown sugar and beer kielbasa, and strawberry ice cream!

Butterscotch is one of my favorite things and I feel like it is seriously underused so when I found this recipe I HAD to make them!! So glad I did! They were so tasty, moist and the kids loved being able to help.

Crock pot ravioli was great but I let it cook too long so it dried out a bit. Next time I know for my crock pot only to let it cook for about 2 hours on high.


Hubs LOVED the sandwiches which were a meal just for him. Kids and I had a birthday part to be at and he was just too tired to make it. So he got a whole small crock pot of chicken, I think he is a bit spoiled ;) He put the meat on Hawaiian rolls, with some mozzarella cheese and romaine lettuce and devoured it! I don't feel so bad for leaving him home alone now.

Tonight I we will be enjoying the kielbasa and ice cream so I will update how those come out later!

 On Monday night I went to the gym for the first time in almost a year. I ran the most pathetic mile I have EVER ran. 17:20. I half ran, half walked.  On Wednesday, I got my run down to 15:54 and on Friday I made it in 15:10! So much progress so soon really gives me so much motivation to keep going and not quit! On another note I am pretty satisfied with the weight I have lost since I have had Tristyn. Breastmilk does a body good! I am now 17lbs below my pre pregnancy weight. 25 more lbs to my goal weight and 30lbs to what I weighed when I got married.

I still need to figure out a kidless lunch and a date night with the hubs for the month! Also a pinterest craft!
