A Quiet Office Day

Pretty quiet day here yesterday. Thursday is typically a full office day with a morning, noon and evening workshop with fillers in-between of emails, coffee breaks and a meal here and there. This week I decided since I’m going to be doing Virtual Workshops for a while longer, I’d get cozy back in my office in the basement. I love this space, I just wasn’t sure the one window would be enough lighting for Zoom, so I temporarily had set up in the the spare bedroom. After playing with lamps and a few different ideas in the basement window, I’ve decided this will work. Also, I have everything I need here, so it’s all good.

Occasionally I’m distracted by an energetic squirrel, bird or bunny, but it’s much nicer than my view of the roof I’ve had for the last two months.

If I get in steps or activity on Thursday, then yay, if I don’t, then that’s okay.

After my evening workshop last night I was feeling the need to move a little, so I turned on the TV and marched in place while dinner baked in the oven. You might be surprised how high you can get your heart rate by marching in place while dinner cooks!

This memory popped up on Facebook and I had forgotten about this recipe!

I didn’t have all of the ingredients, but I thought I could make it work. So similar to that breakfast muffin I’ve been eating along with a few of you!

I had 1/4 of the ingredients, so that’s what I did.

I left out the walnuts and raisins and added mini chocolate chips. Not bad!

My friend Becky gave me this easy shrimp recipe a while back and it is the easiest way to make shrimp ever!

Large Shrimp, butter, (I did 1 lb shrimp with 2 T butter) cayenne pepper flakes, salt and pepper in a glass baking dish.

Bake at 425° for 7 minutes, stir and cook for another 7 minutes. For medium shrimp, reduce cook time accordingly.

Use for taco’s, stir fry, eat over pasta?

Breakfast

Coffee, Coffee and then some more Coffee.

Lunch

Leftover WW Grilled Chicken and Veggie Kebabs with Tzatziki over a bed of romaine.

Snacks

I was in the mood for chips and pop!

Oatmeal Banana Cookies

Dinner

Easy Baked Shrimp with Roasted Spaghetti Squash with Parmesan

Give yourself a big squeeze!

Eat well, hydrate, move and give yourself grace.

‘Til tomorrow.
