Evening all! Sorry about the abrupt-ness of the last post, I had to do the "post-piccie-from-my-phone" and then "get-back-on-the-laptop" thing. I was eager to brag about tonights lil batch of cookies. I don't know if I'm just getting used to them, or what, but these were soooo good!
In my mind, they were soft and chewy peanut butter oatmeal cookies, fresh out of the oven and drizzled with delicious dark chocolate. In real life they were actually my HexB of oats (35g) mixed with 1 egg, a splash of vanilla essence, a shake of cinnamon and a shake of nutmeg, 2 tsp of peanut hottie, and 2 tbsp sweetener, baked and then drizzled with about 1/2 tbsp of choc shot. Divine, I tell ya!
I needed something sweet and yummy after getting all grumpy tonight about... well just life, I guess. About being a mum who just can't seem to get things organized around the house... and what little bits of organization I DO bring into the home tend to be shot to h*ll by the time I'm finished my three days a week at work - then I start scrambling all over again to catch up and can just NEVER seem to get ahead. Arrgh! Why?
(And deep breath, in for 4... out for 8... whooooooo)
So yeah, the cookies helped. Sad, but true.
How was everyone elses weekend?
Thanks Bubble for the vanilla quark info - that stuff is totally worth the syns, really yummy! And thanks AB for still cheering me on, your food ideas have given me a new boost this time round!
And welcome Jellybean - lovely to have you here
Alrighty, I think I've posted all my food today, so I just need to total.
Exercise - loads of walking. In heels too (does that count as extra?)
Water - about 750ml
Hex A - 250ml milk, Hex B, soft and chewy peanut butter oatmeal cookies, fresh out of the oven and drizzled with delicious dark chocolate
Syns - 9.5
I think I am going to have to get out of the habit of feeding my sweet tooth everyday - it's starting to make me crave chocolate on a fairly regular basis. Like, I thought about having a Kitkat pretty much on and off ALL day. Need to switch back to my cheese and cracker fetish!
G'night ladies, and hope you all have a happy monday tomorrow!! x

Hectic morning so have hardly eaten - but have got both my boogie-boos down for a nap, so taking advantage, and having coffee, hb egg and grapes and blueberries and starting to cook for the days ahead when I'm at work.
On the docket, syn free sausage, sweet potato and butternut squash soup - a family fave, SW quiche as usual, a beef stew and Pete's Mexican Sausage and Beans,
I've so been on a Mexican kick lately, and the fact that i can get spicy spanish and sweet chili sausages make it so much easier to feed my craving! Yum.
I'm also waiting on some handymen/handypeople to show up and give me a quote on work I want doing in the kitchen and a bunch of odd jobs around the house... why do they all say they're going to show up and then don't!!!!?? I've got several numbers tho, so I'm sure will find someone.
Hope everyone's having a good Tuesday.

Haha, I already have a bottle of pinot grigio chilling in the fridge for Sunday dinner!
I'm going to be good though - will still need to stay within my syns, and leave some for my peanut hottie and hazelnut options addictions!
You're right about the wine making me eat rubbish foods, that was a baaaaad habit to get into, and I don't want to slip into it again.
Sticking with my Sleepytime tea before bed now!
Today's food;
Coffee X 3, banana, grapes, blueberries, lasagna, orange, mullerlight banana, tea, Alpen light, SW quiche, another alpen light.
Now off to yoga! Ohhhhmmmm...

Munched on sliced ham when I got home from my yoga class, then had some sparkle juice and some pud; Meringue (3 syns) with mullerlight orange and orange segments. Still have to get my HexA in so pondering what to have...
Totals:
Exercise - not much as i was at work. Walked home, walked to yoga class - got all stretchy and centered, but didn't get my heart rate up much.
Water - about 750 ml
Hex A - to follow, Hex B - 2 x Alpen lights
Syns - 3
Hmmm... am thinking either a hot chocolate made with milk or maybe some cereal? Will go have a look!

Had both!! Half a serving of MiniMax cereal (3.5 syns) and some of my 250ml of milk, and will use the remaining milk in my Peanut Hottie drink (2 syns)
So Hex A done and total 8.5 syns. :angel09:
I know I should go to bed, but I'm not tired yet!! I wonder if I can find anything good to read (or watch) on the tablet... G'night all!! (Or maybe not! Hahaha)
