September begins...

I'm so bad at updating! I always think of things to say and then I always get distracted through the week!

But last post I said I was experimenting with mashed cauliflower and it worked out beautifully! I steamed some cauliflower in some veggie broth and tossed it in the blender with a bit of olive oil and couple big handfuls of spinach (inspired by the green monster). It looked like bright green baby food but it was yummy!!

In other news, I went to WI with my mom tonight and she got LIFETIME :) She hit goal 9 weeks ago but missed 3 weigh in's because she was taking a course but regardless she made it tonight! I'm so happy for her! We celebrated with a take out dinner - fresh falafel and hummus from a local Mediterranean place. It was awesome. We also picked up a tub of Bacio (hazelnut and chocolate) gelato from our corner bakery/deli. It was 100 cal/ half a cup and sooo tasty!

So now that I'm job hunting and home days I reallly need to get my eating under control and get into an exercise routine. I picked up a brochure for the rec centre fitness facilities and am hoping to take some classes there. Hopefully I'll have a job soon and I'll still have to worry about fitting in exercise but eating won't be so tough when the kitchen isn't calling my name all day!

Hope you enjoyed labour day weekend!
