Four Months and Berry Muffin Bliss

Yesterday was our four month anniversary. I forgot to tell you guys! lol. I know four months. Not a huuuuge deal, but still...

It's so cool to think only four months ago was my wedding weekend. It was truly one of the most fun weekends of my whole life. Everyone who came truly wanted to be there (since they had to fly here from Indiana), and almost everyone had a part to play. Small, intimate, the ceremony was everything we hoped it would be. It was very special. Yay for Four Months of wedded bliss! :)

Ok. Back to food. Last night, I used the remainder of the blackberries to make muffins. I used my standard go-to whole-wheat muffin recipe and mixed in blackberries and walnut pieces. They turned out really well. Maybe the best muffins I've made yet!

I had one this morning, along with a cheese omelet. It was a nice change. I'm out of spinach, which I really wanted in there. Oh well. The purse strings are tight, and I need to learn to make do with what we have!

I also stopped on my way in to get a soy latte (decaf, of course). I'm going to try to only have one once a week. The rest of the days I'll just have herbal tea from home. A lot easier on the wallet.

Today is shaping up to be very busy, so I wanted to knock out this morning's post immediately. Don't miss last night's post (Hubby in the Kitchen: Tuna Noodle Casserole). A delicious meal cooked by a fine man. What more could a girl ask for? :)

I hope you all have a wonderful day. I'll talk to you later tonight!

Happy Humpday!

=========================

Good morning. I'm hoping you've all recovered from your holiday weekend and are managing to get your head wrapped around this Monday morning (I'm trying).

Yesterday was really bad food-wise for me. Today, however, is a new day (I love how that works). This morning, I started off light.

Kashi and Total Blueberry Pomegranate Cereals w/blackberries and a spoon of AB. Yum!

Mid-morning, I had a few almonds (very few) and an apple pie Larabar. Didn't make it to the gym this morning. I actually slept right through my alarm and woke up a half an hour late. As soon as I woke up, I wanted to dive right back to sleep. I had forgotten over night how bad my pain is (still - since Saturday morning!!!). I have circuit today in class. That may have to be enough workout for today because I can still just barely walk.

Today is really busy. I work until 4pm in the office (I really hate that). Then, I have school and more work to do tonight. I'm thinking chili dogs for dinner. I've been craving them. I bought turkey franks and a can of veggie chili yesterday at the store. Throw in some whole-grain buns and a veggie on the side and we'll be good to go. A busy day requires a quick dinner. :)

I'm dying right now for starbucks, but I'm really trying to committ myself to saving money rather than spending a fortune on my decaf coffee habit. It really is crazy to spend $4 a day on a coffee, ya know?

Hoping you are all having a beautiful day. Any plans for your Monday?
