Daily Check-in: Friday, May 28th

Welcome to the weekend! In US, it is a three day weekend mostly spent BBQing. I wonder what the dinosaurs in the picture below are eating? Even though my kids are grown, we still have one of these plastic dinosaurs that the cat chews on as a toy. What will your food be today? I don’t recommend anything with dinosaurs unless you count chicken.

I made pumpkin chocolate chip cookies yesterday. I had ¾ a can of pureed pumpkin and 2 open jars of applesauce, and I thought I have to do something with them. I threw in oats, wholewheat flour, flax, eggs, a little olive oil that I also managed to spill on the floor and my shoe, and chocolate chips. There were two half opened bags. As my husband said, some people want a little chocolate in the cookie; we want a little cookie in our chocolate. It wasn’t that bad, but I don’t want to eat a cookie with only 2 chocolate chips. I tried cooking a little of the dough in the microwave which was ok. The texture was more like a British pudding than a cookie.

I didn’t sleep a lot last night, so it might have to be a rest day for me. I hope to plant two blue plumbago that are supposed to do well in my climate.

What will be your workout today?

Enjoy your weekend!
