N Her Shoes 2008 Recap
Today I have been cleaning and enjoying my last Saturday of vacation. We went to bed at almost 2am last night , we watched Saving Private Ryan and put away Christmas:( I woke up late and decided to take a day off of the gym, we are going to a dog park later where I am sure I will get plenty of exercise. I decided to make some whole wheat pumpkin and cranberry French toast.
The Combo:
- 2 pieces of whole wheat bread
- 1 egg and 1 egg white
- 2 tablespoons pumpkin puree
- a little pumpkin spice
- and a half a handful of dried cranberries
- topped with cranberry apple butter, agave nectar, and powdered sugar
enjoyed with an orange from our tree, and a shot of espresso.
After breakfast I got right to cleaning, bathroom, kitchen, living room, and dining room while watching Spanglish. I then decided to make a soup and salad type of lunch. I bought this soup at TJ’s Yesterday, Sweet Potato Bisque. Not as good as I was anticipated but with pita chips it did ok.
A Cranberry Walnut Salad, mixed greens, cashews walnuts, carrots, and white balsamic vinegar.
The Soup
Natural Pita Chips
The perfect Saturday Lunch.
and a mimosa mock tail, Oj with some sparking natural soda.
I am now watching Elizabeth Town, Funny and Cute movie! The clouds are making it feel so gloomy, but I am hoping they will blow over for our doggy birthday party. We plan on going out to dinner with some friends tonight, I miss making dinner at home. We will get back to eating more home cooked meals starting next week. I did make quite a healthful and cheap meal last night.
Fried Brown Rice with Mushrooms from Tj’s
Balsamic Grilled Veggies
Steak Tofu'
All mixed together
Will be making this again soon. I am trying to slowly kick out meat, it’s been pretty easy so far.
I know I should have posted this a while back but better late then never:)

Great 2008 recap! Looks like you had a great year - and so many fun trips! Hears to 2009!
Love the photo retrospective. I majorly fell of the photo-taking wagon last year and only have pictures of a few things from all of '08! That can be another goal for me this new year, to take my camera with me everywhere and actually remember to use it! I love peeking at your memories.
And, yes, we should totally have a Wii tournament in April - if you can squeeze it in between seeing Boston and, you know, RUNNING A MARATHON!
i love your recap - amazing year!
I love the photo recap. That's a great idea. Kind of makes me want to do it but I don't have nearly as much stuff to recap as you do. Maybe this coming year! But it looks like you had a great year!
Great French toast and an even more amazing recap of your past year! You've definitely had a good one, and I'm sure there is nothing but excitement in store for you this year as well :o)
Great year in review! I loved it. You seriously look so happy in every picture. Whatever you're doing, keep doing it!!
Yummy french toast!
