A Full Pantry and Freezer Make Me Happy #TaterTotCasserole
I love when I can stay within my grocery budget and stock up my house with food for my large family. It goes fast, believe me! And here is the shameless plug for my Tater Tot Casserole Cookbook! That's why I always have evaporated milk and cream of chicken soup around on the pantry shelf! The other 3 ingredients stay in the freezer until I need them. The book has 35 tater tot casserole recipes and 13 dessert recipes!
What makes you happy?

Want to Lose Weight? Don't Deprive Yourself!
Today's #WeightWatchers Weigh-In #12PoundsIn12Weeks Challenge January 27, 2015
Today's tip from me as a veteran of trying to lose weight and knowing how to do it in a healthy way is DON'T DEPRIVE YOURSELF!
No, this does not mean every Hershey Kiss in the bag. It means if you are dying for a Kiss, have a freaking Kiss. Figure out the points for, say, 3 Kisses and take the points and enjoy those Kisses. No, I don't want your Kisses to take up your entire 26 points for the day. I'd like for you to include a veggie or fruit every now and then.
Examples of how I indulge:
Those are ways I take the power away from food. I eat what I want and take the points.
Weight loss for this week = 0.8 pounds
Total weight loss since January 6 = 5.6 pounds (159.4 to 153.8)

Examples of how I indulge:
- My husband made amazing naughty brownies last night. I had a few bites and logged some points online.
- Today is my Monday treat day so I got a 4-point Starbucks grande mocha frap light.
- I had the hash brown casserole I made Sunday (made it light) and took the 6 points for the cup because it sounded really good as I shopped for it and as I made it and as it was cooking and as we drove it to a family gathering. I knew I was going to take the points for it and also have a salad and some chicken sandwich. I did not want to be trying to resist it because then I knew I would be standing over the casserole dish later with a spoon, eating double the points I would have and feeling sick later.
Those are ways I take the power away from food. I eat what I want and take the points.

I Used to Hate Mondays #ILoveMondays
I used to hate Mondays so badly. I know my husband doesn't enjoy them! That's because the kids are so awesome and he loves hanging with them over the weekends! I used to hate them when I was working at an office, too!
Now Monday means back to homeschooling, we usually go swimming at the indoor pool, I get a light Starbucks drink treat for myself and cookies for the kids, we get to sleep in after getting up early the day before for church, I get to go to the gym by myself to walk on the treadmill and get some quiet time or TV/music time while I do something good for my body/health. I also love my businesses that I do (Jamberry, Younique, Simply Aroma, editing, writing articles and ebooks), and I'm back to that on Monday morning before the kids start waking up to start learning.
