Yummy Goodness

Fat. That's what I am. But who can resist all this yummy goodness? Here are a few meals that we've enjoyed recently.

Chicken, Lemon and Dill with Orzo


Balsamic Chicken Noodle Bowl (This is Rick's current favorite.)


Coconut Curry Chicken (I add pineapples to this one.)


Beef Stew


And a very happy dessert.
Hot Fudge Pudding Cake


Okay. I have to go exercise.

This is for Rick

Rick told me that he missed my blog updates so here is one. I was thinking of stopping it altogether but I will continue for my one fan.

Since Christmas, Lucy:
-got her two bottom teeth.
-said both dada and mama (not that she knows what they mean).
-sits up all on her own.
-tried many new foods and has grown to like (tolerate) green ones. I think her favorites are peaches and sweet potatoes.

I've started making homemade baby food. It's way easier than it sounds! Buying frozen fruits and veggies have made it pretty easy on prep. The only thing I haven't made successfully is any meat. The chicken was horrible. Any suggestions?

Rick is keeping busy helping his dad finish work on a condo so that they can sell it. He's putting in 2 nights and most of the day on Saturday. I am so proud of him and thankful for him and the way that he provides for Lucy and me. He is a hard worker.

I am still adjusting to being a mom. It has it's challenges for sure. Yesterday was a rough day... one that led me to eat a few too many carbs and chocolate. But when I put Lucy to bed that night I remembered, "God has been faithful and He will be again." He has not brought me this far to leave me now.
