Spring Break

Spring break is sure starting out like spring . . . . . chirping birds, sunshine, melting snow. . . .this is all good in my book!!

I’d like to think this good weather is going to stick around, but I know we will probably get more snow before the real spring comes. :( But I’ll take it for now! :)

Just a few notes about the granola bars I made yesterday:

- Someone asked me what pepitas are: pepitas = pumpkin seeds

Sometimes the inside, hulled part of the pumpkin seed is referred to as a pepita.

- These granola bars did not stay together like I thought they would. I did substitute agave nectar for the brown rice syrup—could this by why? I’ve never used brown rice syrup before.

Last night we went over to my in-laws for a little birthday celebration.

I got this super cute running shirt from my father-in-law and mother-in-law.

The shirt is sweat-wicking and fits really well.

And the saying totally fits me! :)

We then sat down for a nice homemade meal. Caesar salad

My mother-in-law’s specialty: lasagna.

And a delicious meal topped off with some Haagen-Dazs ice cream. Just enough to satisfy my sweet tooth.

I’m enjoying a little Bachelor action tonight—can’t wait for the season finale next week!

Questions

Is it spring where you live?
