Hello Friday!! I don't know about you but I am so ready for the weekend! Kev is out of ton a little and it's just me and Cleo and the cats. In case anyone is considering coming over to rob me... my really cute dog is super protective and doesn't take kindly to strangers.
If you happened to come over from the Angelos article, WELCOME! Thank you for taking the time to look at the magazine and actually type the blog address in your computer! The original blog post that started the whole thing can be found here. Again, thanks for stopping by!
On to 5 thing Friday! It's super random... love me.
1. If you hadn't deduced from my last post that I've been doing a lot of interviewing, you're right. So many people and so many bad resumes. I confess, I judge your grammar and sentence structure. Especially on your resume. My friend was telling me that when she interviews her favorite question to ask is, "What would you do in case of a zombie apocalypse?" I have 2 interviewees tomorrow and believe me, I'm asking it to both of them.
2. These are AMAZING! I'm typing this post with sea salt, truffle delicious fingers. Go to Trader Joe's, buy them and eat them.
3. Yesterday I made breakfast for my team. Ham, egg and cheese bake, apple french toast, blueberry muffins and lemon bread. You know what they like the best? The egg bake, "OMG, what was in it?" Eggs, cheese, ham, salt and pepper. "Ohhhh it must be the salt and pepper". Are there people in this world who DON'T put salt and pepper on their eggs???
4. A few weeks ago I had a nutritionist do my macros and she told me to eat 148 grams of carbs per day, Do you know what happens when I eat 148 grams of carbs? I am STARVING all the time. Carbs make me more hungry which is absolutely ridiculous. For 3 weeks I couldn't stop eating. 2 weeks ago I gave up on the macros and went low carb. Since then I'm considerably less hungry and my pants are fitting much better. Kev went low carb and in 9 days lost 10 pounds.... Men...
5. As part of my #BeMoreCreative resolution I started doing something I hadn't done in a while, cross stitch. But I didn't want some boring cats/lighthouse/rainbow scene. Instead I found Grannie Panties on Etsy. Seriously, this is some needlepoint I could get into.
This will be my first creation.
It's going to be hung in my downstairs bathroom.
Stop by and say hi to Amanda! Have an awesome Friday!
men and their super speedy (and unfair!) weight loss. HOW DO THEY DO THAT? i remember when i started my fitness journey, it took SIX MONTHS for someone to say something and when my husband started? TWO weeks. WTF. and while i killed myself with insanity/p90X and 100% strict clean eating, he just cut down on the snacking and sort of went to the gym and he lost like 15lbs. SO NOT FAIR.
ReplyDeleteHe does this ALL THE TIME too. He eats a bunch of pizza and treats for a few months, complains that he gained weight then looses it all in like 2 weeks. I look at a cookie and gain 2 pounds. It's complete BS
Deletehaha... that cross stitch is fantastic! I used to cross stitch HUGE elaborate things... & I can't tell you what I've done with any of them.
ReplyDeleteBut funny you talk about that - I got an email this week from Pinterest with "Cool Cross Stitch patterns"... some of them were beautiful & practical designs... & funny like this one :)
I got a little obsessive and finished it last night. The next one I'm doing is for my office and it's says "Damn it's good to be a gangster" with little squirrels holding guns. Cracks me up!
DeleteSO not cool how easy men can lose weight! That cross stitch is hilarious!!
ReplyDeleteI'm still mad at him. It's ridiculous how he can do this over and over again.
DeleteI love salt so very much. Salt is amazing and delicious. I figure that I sweat enough when I work out that I must need it. I know it's totally not your thing but I'm hiring! :)
ReplyDeleteI love love love salt so much. I salt everything! ;)
