2 more weeks to go – wow, its coming fast, but its really dragging!! My fridge is getting more bare – but I’m working better at my freezer!
Here we go:
Monday – can’t eat anything early for breakfast because I’m having my cholesterol and sugar checked. Asahi for lunch with Kathy. Dinner will be balsamic roasted onions and chicken (WW recipe)
Tuesday – oatmeal with fresh fruit (cleaning out freezer), turkey salad on a arthurs thin, dinner will be a salad and egg white probably
Wednesday – Going to do a dreen smoothie in honor of St. Patty’s Day! Cheesecake Factory’s chopped veggie salad with chicken (390 cal, 6 fat) – an SIMPLY AMAZING – dinner is salad and pizza with the Weldys.
Thursday – Probably very much like Tuesday
Friday – Lunch at Havana Rumba with my professors as a send-off for me. I love the place and my last dish I’ll try there is their signature dish – the grouper – oh, can’t wait.
Saturday – lunch with going to be FABD bbq sandwiches and then a wonderful going away massage by my good friend Sarah.
Sunday – I’m heading to E-town to hand with the Nelsons for church and lunch (probably Mexican)
It’ll be good – I gotta get some running in!
Recipe of the week: Lemon Cheesecake Bars with Berries

I had everything I needed for this in my fridge/freezer – which is good because I’m trying to clean it out (it is slowly working, I promise)
This was good, I changed it a little bit – but it still needed more salt I think (I didn’t put in extra in b/c of the saltiness of the ham). This is a Cooking Light recipe (best of 2004) and is 6 WW points as directed (mine probably evened out)
2 T evoo
1 medium onion, chopped
1 orange pepper, seeded and chopped
24 oz shredded hash brown potatoes, frozen
pepper to taste (salt if you want more)
2 2 oz ham steaks, chopped
1 cup 2% sharp cheddar
Saute onion for about 4 minutes, add pepper. Add in rest (not cheese). Cook until slightly browned and potatoes are done.
Smooth out in large frying pan – top with cheese. Let cheese melt. Divide by 4 and plate up. Becca brought some Plant City strawberries and a banana. And I have 2 servings leftover for Sunday and Tuesday!

This is so pretty – I can’t pass it up.
Ridgecrest is one of the prettier places in NC. It is so quiet and it will be great to run on. I’m looking forward to the challenge of the hills and different terrains. Also, good training will come on Lake Lynn and Umstead in Raleigh.
And – that means I’ll pay less than 100$ for both of my halfs this year. That is definitely a great bonus – and both of them are on Saturdays!
Anyone in TN or NC or SC or VA wanna do it with me? I’d love a running buddy? Or KY – wanna make the drive?

Why are so many of the races on Sundays?
This does me no good. So…
I won’t be doing the Half at Virginia Beach over Labor Day because its on Sunday. I won’t be doing the Raleigh City of Oaks Half in November because its on a Sunday.
So…when is the next race I will run (at least big one) at this moment – the Lake Norman Turkey Trot on Thanksgiving Day – that’s right. I’m going to run – then eat! 🙂
Looking forward to it – and a good cause. If you are in the NC area – I would love a training buddy for this – and if you wanna give up your Thanksgiving Day morning (of watching the parade) – come run it with me!
Update: I’ve talked my parents into coming and having Thanksgiving in Raleigh – so hopefully, I can talk to my Dad and he can run one of the smaller races…
