I sure hope the weather's nicer where you are!

We've survived 2 weeks of "pollen storms", temps that swing 20 degrees in a day, Nor'easter blowin' now. So I'm hard at work indoors... catching up on documents... housework... etc. Gonna start cooking a ham soon; the oven will help warm up the house and make it smell delicious! And I saw the cutest devilled egg "peeps" online...

We were out of town, cool to warm days, with light rain showers (making everything happy and green for egg hunts!)

What a wonderful Easter we had: )

How was your ham, Amber?

Thanks for covering for me, Bones!  I wouldn't have remembered Easter - except for the "miracle" in Virginia Beach - a Navy jet went down into an apartment complex area - and there were no casualties. It'll be awhile before some folks get back in their homes and they've probably lost most everything to fire - but they're still alive. That's just amazing, if you saw of the photos.

I dunno, Light. The ham was hubs' idea... and it made sense when we bought it... I'm just not into it. Fact: I just have a hard time knowing what I want to eat or what sounds good. Not that I've lost my appetite, mind you - I just don't have much imagination right now, when it comes to food. Maybe it's just the cooking part of the process that's the issue. I've been trying to be more physically active (still want to/need to lose a chunk o' gut) - and getting lots of yardwork and housework done - while hubs isn't exerting himself or completing any of his projects... and I guess part of me feels that since I'm working... someone should feed me. My inner child is kinda bratty about what's "fair" - and well, I understand her point of view but....

Doesn't work that in reality, though!!

Amber:

Right now I'm enjoying lots of kale. 

Kale. Kale. Kale.

Mostly raw, and broken down by hand with pink salt and lime juice, then mixed with anything I like at that moment. 

Avocado.

Turkey.

Carrots.

Cranberries.

Strawberries.

Nuts.

But I just love the wilted kale..... chewy, yet tender.  Mmmm. 

Like my bodies' craving it.

If I keep a pre-cleaned, ready to go bag in the fridge then it's easier.  If I don't, it's much harder.  It takes some time to get the kale completely clean, rubbed/rolled/worked with the salt and lime so the body can use all the nutrients, but once it's done, it's worth it.

Having lean protein on hand helps too, and I'm always amazed at how much I enjoy a good salad.
