Card Making

I’m such a novice but I liked the idea of doing personalized cards for my friends and family for their birthdays..

My 1st card Cousin's b-day


Friends B-Day



and friends daughters B-Day



I just rented a new lens which is still in the trial phases this weekend I’ll go out and shoot and put it to the test & practice....so excuse the excessive bokeh

I went to get some lab work done today, I've been feeling really run down so I think I’m deficient in some sort of vitamin..i'll know more soon..

and still meat free for over a week, i've been doing just fine. Today I cut up a burger for Fenway and I swear the smell made me a lil queasy.

DAY 2 on Veggie diet..

Happy Saint Patrick’s Day!

SO scale went down 1lb! Yippee..I think I did fine, Mike made popcorn chicken for himself for dinner and I wasn’t tempted in the least bit { duh Erica it was also Day 1} I did 18min of exercise walk/job type of video and I did walk at lunch time yesterday and today. Tomorrow I’ll bring my pedometer and see how much im walking exactly, so im slowly trying to incorporate the exercise a lil at a time..

For dinner I made my concoction, tasted fabulous and today I added black beans and corn to my sald with goat cheese and for some “crunch” I threw in a handful of Cheez-its so maybe not the healthiest salad topping but hey it works LOL

Tonight Im thinking sauté spinach with garlic and some sort of bean.

Now off to a raffle and see if im a lucky winner!

Day 1 of no meat!

Ok so I’ve decided to try and go meat free aka vegetarian I’m not to eat anything that had a mom.. Im still on the fence on where eggs stand LOL

So day 1, I had goat cheese and mandarin salad..with balsamic vinaigrette.. SOO good! Heres a pic of whats left..

If nothing else happens today this will be my photo of the day lol Dinner I have a black bean & quinoa concoction recipe in my head..

I’ve been bit my the craft bug, not sure if it’s because it’s national craft month or something like that but I want to be creative. I made a card for my cousin’s birthday and im working on a card for my friend and my other friend’s daughter. I’ll repost my cousins card pic when I get home its too cute and I think not to shabby for a 1st timer LOL

I haven’t lost in awhile but I haven’t gained either. Im vowing to cut out harmful foods & meats just for a month lets see how it goes this girly here can not ever have her hubs awesome burgers ever again..

Can’t wait for the grill to be and running again.. ::drool:: wait should be thinking about meat when im trying to give it up?
