Still competitve :)
The novelty of my fitbit has worn off a bit, but it pleases me no end when I move more than the day before. I do aim to hit 10000 steps before I go home from work. Yesterday it buzzed at me when I went to lunch :).
The other thing I treated myself to was a Bosu Balance ball. I used to use it in the gym with my trainer to activate all these little stabilizer muscles. I love it. Only downside is that the bung doesn't fit properly and I have to pump it up after every use. I have been in touch with the company and they have promised to send a new bung. So while my lovely LB fixed my car in the garage I wobbled on my Bosu ;)
Dinner was homemade sushi. Another first. I made them with carrot, cucumber, avocado and some had smoked salmon in them too. YUMMY!
Last weekend I dug up my last parsnips and after roasting a lot of them I still had plenty left. They got turned into a parsnip cake. Yum Yum.
I am a real foody these days. I am not bothered about going out to restaurants or fast food. But to be in the kitchen and create something delicious, wholesome but still fairly simple. And most of the time I succeed. Its a pleasure to eat and watch LB mop up his plate to get the last morsel.
I don't think my mum ever enjoyed cooking. It always seemed to be a chore. A neccesity. Meals were good and simply but I can't remember her ever experimenting.
LB keeps on saying I should go on 'Masterchef'. Although I would certainly enjoy the experience, I don't think I like the 'waste'. They always seem to have a ton of ingredients on their benches, just to produce a rather small plate of reconstituted, turned into foam or otherwise very complicated prepared food.
Going to the vet with Ash this afternoon for her final check-up from her babytooth extraction. And tonight is girly night. I will take LBs granddaughter to 'sing-along Frozen'. That should be fun.
Happy Days :)
