Eating Healthy...again

So it's back to the eating again. I've been trying different things over the years, like different exercises and diets. I just have to be more consistent with what I am doing.

I made a smoothie for breakfast today, similar to the greenie morning smoothie. I added strawberries and blueberries to the mix. It was more of a purple then a greenie. I wish I added another banana though, because I'm so hungry right now! At least it's time for lunch. I didn't bring food today, but I'm going to get the biggest salad I can find with everything on it!

I'm using the my fitness pal app on my phone again, to keep track of the things I eat...even if I shouldn't have eaten them (like the small handful of reece's pieces I threw in my mouth a few minutes ago!)

BAD!

But it's a daily process. And I can't put myself down for it. I've been walking more every day, and that makes me feel better.

THE BEST tomatillo salsa!

As you know, I LOVE Pinterest. This year I've been trying the many crafts and recipes I have found. I decided to try this Tomatillo Salsa recipe from Garnish with Lemon, and I believe that this is the BEST SALSA EVER!

I think this salsa is EVEN BETTER than the tomatillo salsa at Moe's! Have you ever had that salsa? It is my FAVORITE. Now this salsa is my all-time favorite!

I can't get enough of it! It has just the right amount of cilantro and a kick of jalepeño. I love spicy food more because of this salsa! It has such a nice crisp taste to it.

Doesn't it look DELICIOUS?! I also thought of trying it as a vegan salad dressing. I've been trying to incorporate more vegetarian/vegan food. I just love making things with fresh produce.

Have your seen the new Pinterest?

Have you seen it? I logged in to Pinterest today, and I always see the little message one the top of the page asking me if I wanted to change to the new Pinterest. Today, I took the plunge.

This is how my page looks like. The pins are wider and easier to see, and the buttons are bigger.

There are more descriptions about the new Pinterest in their Help Center and Pinterest's Blog

I know I'm not the first person to talk about this. There are many other blogs talking, and there are good and bad comments about this change.

I think it looks great! Anyone else agree or disagree?

Autism Speaks: For Aidric

This is my family (minus my brother), and this is his son, my nephew Aidric. I am raising money for Autism Speaks to help kids like my nephew that have to deal with this disorder, and I am raising money for the families that walk alongside, like my nephew's grandparents. We get to spend time with him at least once a week, so I can't imagine how someone can feel trying to understand how he feels every day. We are learning so much about autism, and there is so much more to learn.

I know it may be odd to be asking strangers for donations, but anything you give will help with treatments and research.
