My Everyday Life: Week 34

Here’s what My Everyday Life Week 34 looked like:

Tuesday was my birthday. Hello, 36.

Palm reading.

Cooper made me toast on my birthday….

He snapped this photo of me getting ready for my birthday dinner.

Look at how he holds the phone.

I finally got to wear my new favorite dress. It’s soo comfy. And it’s pretty fancy even though it feels like I’m wearing pajamas.

I realized that 36…

Is 18 x 2. 18 is the day of my birth. This pleases me.

Breakfast enchiladas.

Special breakfast for Cooper.

Chocolate chips makes all the difference.

Watermelon Feta Mint Skewers

We had a watermelon in our fridge this week. Instead of eating it plain or with lime, I cut up a few hunks of feta cheese, and skewered them with the leftover watermelon and added mint leaves to make Watermelon Feta Mint Skewers ! The saltiness of the feta is balanced by the watermelon. It’s a snack salad and it’s delicious!

Strawberry Roll-Ups

I can’t believe school starts in a few weeks. Where did the summer go??! To say that I’ve enjoyed not having to pack lunch every morning is a total understatement. I think having this break from the daily grind has done me some good though. I was able to take a break and figure out some new things to include in this year’s lunch arsenal. The newest addition to my lunch game? Fruit Roll-Ups. Now that I made these delicious Strawberry Roll-Ups, I think I’m hooked!

Fresh ripe strawberries get blended in my Vitamix Professional Series 750 with a little bit of sugar & balsamic (for tangy balance!). A trip to the oven on low for a few hours and we’ve got ourselves snacks for the week. The best part? I know ALL of the ingredients inside these roll- ups. Peace of mind is everything.
