Weekend Review Day's 53 & 54

Hey NeverEver's!

How was your weekend? Mine has gone by pretty fast. Of course I think that has to do with the fact I spent all of yesterday in a movie theater!

Since the Hubby and I were going to spending hours in that theater, for a worthy cause of course, entertainment! We had to start the day off right!

Cantaloupe with grapes and a light drizzle of honey! It was just the right kind of sweet. Hubby wasn't to sure about it at first, he never had cantaloupe like this before, but after trying it out he admitted he liked it! Score!!

We got a picture of the first artifact that Indiana 're-locates' in Raiders of the Lost Ark. Have to say the movies were wonderfully remastered!

We did have a small issue with a fire alarm going off, at first we all thought the flashing lights was something to do with the movie, oops. After things settled down we found out that someone pulled the fire switch while leaning against it. Every movie goer got a free ticket back for the whole 'disturbance of the movie'. I personally was just happy that it wasn't an actual fire!

A really nice touch with AMC was that they placed the times the movies were going to be starting, so we all had time to move around after each movie without worrying about missing the next one! It was really well put together and well worth the $25 for the ticket.

After the movies, we got out pretty late, Hubby and I decided to try a new place by the theater. i-sweet has only been open for 4 months but the place was packed.

I ordered the green tea & milk shaved ice cream with mochi pieces. It was delicious! The green tea didn't have any unnatural sweetness so it was still tart. The thing was huge though so the Hubby and I shared! There was some left overs, like I said it was a lot of shaved ice cream, so I know what I will be having for the next few days ^_^!

Daily Stats Day 52:

Friday after going shopping for new Blog Plates over at Target I start craving pizza. So for the 'treat' of the weekend was a little early and we went for some pizza hut. I think I did pretty well with that calorie balance!

Daily Stats Day 53:

For a day in the theater what saved me...Almonds! They filled me up so well that a lunch of a hotdog was just enough. Also I did sleep more then 3 hours but my arm started hurting, I slept on it, and I just had to take off the Body Media.

Second Week Game

So Sunday has been pretty good to me. Slept in, made breakfast, and just basically enjoying my game...even if we are losing!

I wasn't sure what I really wanted for breakfast today but as soon as I got to the kitchen I knew. I wanted pancakes again...but this time I wanted apples in them!

MultiGrain Apple and Cinnamon Stuffed Pancake

First I am happy how these babies turned out! So yummy with the apple and cinnamon! Have to say that I might like these ones better then the MultiGrain Peach and Cinnamon Stuffed Pancakes.

 Secondly I love how this picture came out! The plate and the syrup under it! It looks awesome, or at least better then some of my other pictures!

So NeverEver's do you guys wake up on Sunday to watch your teams play? What is your favorite thing to make for weekend breakfast? I need some new ideas!

Have a great rest of your Sunday NeverEver's, see you all on Monday!

Day 52: Shopping for my Blog

Hey NeverEver's!

How has your Friday been?

It has been a wonderful day since the Hubby has the day off and I, well I still don't have a job so ya. The So. Cal weather is not going with the idea that it is Fall and therefore should be cooler but we haven't gotten the memo, there is a heat wave hitting us this weekend.

So I had no idea what I wanted to do for breakfast today. Since the Hubby was home I usually cook breakfast for us together but today I wasn't feeling it. After some great suggestions from my friends and after reading the posts from other blogs I got inspired. Have to say it came from Peanut Butter and Peppers, while looking through her amazing recipes I got my idea.

Cinnamon and Peach MultiGrain Pancakes

The whole kitchen really had really yummy Fall smell to it. The peaches went really well with the cinnamon. What made it better was it was Hubby approved!

After lazying around the house we went to get some stuff from Target. We are going to a movie marathon tomorrow for Indiana Jones, I personally can't wait, but I wanted to pick up some 'Healthy Snacks' so I wouldn't be stuck with popcorn and candies.

Got some almonds, Special K bars, and Low Fat Ruffles. All of which is better then popcorn when your in a theater for 4 movies in a row. Its a good thing Harrison Ford is so damn sexy!

Anyways, Hubby surprised me by looking at plates for my food on the blog. I was talking with him earlier that I didn't like the way my pictures were coming out. We are talking about getting a new camera one of these days, but for now  think these will help.

I never would have really picked these colors out but Hubby has some creative tastes and came out with this.

Again something I wouldn't have picked out but this is one of my favorite ones that we got.

I really have no idea how the picture came out sideways but it did. Anyways, I do love the Black vs White look so this one I might be using more often.

I love the contrast here, just like with the black and white. This one just pops a little more I think.

So that was my shopping for my Blog. I never would have thought I would actually be getting things for this but I am happy I have. Makes it even better that it was the Hubby's idea!

Daily Stats Day 51:

Yesterday was an amazing workout. Went to the park like normal but instead of just walking it I actually jogged in intervals around the park. Never have I done that before. It has been astounding me that I am jogging but able to keep it up!

Okay NeverEver's enjoy your weekend! Also let me know what you think about my new plates!

Sunday Fun Day + Day 34 + Cooking

Hey NeverEver's,

I am a weekend chef now! I think I got addicted to cooking healthy meals for the Hubby and I. Now I just have to get it out of the 'weekend' and into the week...although that may take some time!

So here is Breakfast!

All finished the MultiGrain w/ Flax Pancakes!

Here it is all done! 3 pancakes for both Juan and I. Have to note that this is the first time we ever had Multigrain pancakes. They tasted really yummy!

And here is the making of it

Weird thing with Multigrain pancakes is that there is supposed to still have lumps. I had to re-read the instructions to make sure I understood it. Did I mention that I used to burn pancakes...or not cook them all the way through. Yes I was a baaaaddddd pancake maker, but I have gotten better! Yay!!

So here was dinner!

Lemon Chicken w/ Buitoni Three Cheese Pasta

So I was feeling a little adventurous today...I also had to make do with some left overs. And the picture above is what came up!

Here is what I used and the stats:

Serving Size 1 * Calories 601 * Fat 12.1 * Protein 50 * Carbs 79.6 *

• Chicken Breasts
• Black Pepper - 2 Tbsp
• Salt - 2 Tbsp
• Lemon - 1
• Egg Whites - 1
• Water - 1/2 Cup
• Buitoni Three Cheese Ravioli - 1 Cup 
• Pasta Sauce - 2 Tbsp

Breaded Chicken w/ Lemon Topping

Sprinkle the pepper and salt on each side of the chicken. In a bowl add the egg whites and 1/2 cup of water. In the other bowl put the bread crumbs. Dip each chicken in the egg whites then in the bread crumbs. Before placing in the pan to cook squeeze 1/2 of the lemon on the chicken.

Cooking the Chicken

Put the chicken in a pan and spray the pan and chicken with the Non Stick Spray, I use EVOO Non Stick Spray from Fresh and Easy. Make sure to cook the chicken all the way through. While cooking I add a few more drops of the lemon while the chicken is cooking. 

I got the chicken idea from here. Although I didn't use the whole SkinnyTaste recipe it did give me the YUMMY idea! This was also Hubby approved! 

So how was your weekend?
