139.4 yesterday...138.8 today

Wow! I have a ton of yummy eats to report about!!! Let's get caught up shall we??

Monday's night's dinner was nothing too exciting. Some leftover Beef Noodle Bake that I pulled out of the freezer. On the side were some sauteed veggies: zucchini, mushrooms, onions, bell pepper, spinach and garlic:



















I went over to Lisa's to watch The Bachelorette. I brought some carrots and roasted red pepper hummus. I sampled a little bit of everything there: my hummus, some crackers and cheese, part of a pumpkin muffin, a little Asian chicken salad from Pei Wei, chicken & brown rice and one of Lisa's famous brownies. So much for self control huh? :) I was NOT going to have one of the brownies but Dina informed me that they were Lisa's best batch. How could I say no? At least they are small brownies. Sorry no pics guys. I was involved in the show. I can't believe how cheesy the show is and now I'm hooked. Oh well. :)

Breakfast yesterday was non fat, plain yogurt with Fiber One cereal and strawberries:



















I took the kids to camp and headed over to Starbucks to wait until my cooking class started. I had some fruit and an iced tea:
























Yesterday's class was a shorter "lunch style" class and was entitled: Picnic in the Park. Our lunch was: Deviled Eggs with Bacon, Al Fresco Grilled Tandoori Chicken Breasts with Chutney and Curried Rice Salad with Artichoke Hearts, Olives and Peppers:



















Everything was so delicious!! The deviled egg was the best one I've ever had! I cannot wait to make these at home for a party! I LOVED the curried rice salad. This would be perfect to bring to a potluck/picnic.

Dessert was Cream Cheese Swirl Brownies with ice cream:



















OMG. This brownie was beyond fabulous! I will be making these soon for sure! What a great class!!!

After class I went to Costco. Nothing exciting to report there...just stocking up on the regular stuff. I picked up the kids from camp and came home and threw my exercise clothes on and went over to Lisa's to do the P90X Kenpo video. I got in a fabulous workout! Then I came home, changed (again!) and hubby and I met some friends for dinner at Georges at the Cove in La Jolla.



















Georges never disappoints. They view is magnificent and the food is always fresh and delicious. It's a must if you are ever in La Jolla. I had a glass of Chardonnay while we waited for our friends to arrive.
























Hubby scored the best table in the restaurant for sure! Check out our view!



















It was so nice watching the sun set!

I ordered the Baby Greens salad to start:



















Upon recommendation from the server and one of our friends, I went with their special: Halibut on sweet corn with grape tomatoes and snap peas:



















Goodness gracious this was delicious. I wanted to lick my plate. I have a feeling that I'll be thinking of this dish for awhile!

Dessert wasn't too shabby: Warm Chocolate Cake with Dulce de Leche ice cream:



















More goodness. I went to sleep a very happy camper!

Breakfast this morning was similar to yesterday. I was so excited to have more blackberries and strawberries that I had to do it again:



















This time I rolled with Fage yogurt instead of the plain yogurt. After I took the kids to camp, I went to Zumba. What a great class today!! I burned 525 calories. Nice! I came home a sweaty beast.

I cleaned up and made lunch. Trader Joe's pea soup and a turkey and swiss sammie on a bagel thin. I put mustard, lettuce, tomato and cucumber on the sandwich:



















My car needed a couple of repairs so that's where I'm at....blogging from the car dealership. I'm too cool for school.

Tonight is "Family Night" at our club so we are going there with the kiddos with some friends for dinner. We did that last week and really enjoyed it so we are trying to make it a regular Wednesday night thing.

Are you watching the World Cup? It's on right now in the lounge I'm in....this is the first time I've watched it. I'm not a soccer fan....sorry!

  4. Wow girl! Everything looks incredible! I'll have to try that beef noodle bake recipe. I'm having a baby in October so I've been desperately searching for freezer recipes! :)
