POTATOES.

When I talk about potatoes I think of the guy in Forrest Gump who can't stop talking about shrimp.
I would say the potato is the most popular ground grown vegetable.  You can't eat it raw but you can't eat it in every other form.

My favourite way to eat potatoes is mashed. Because you can eat it if you have a tooth ache. Toothaches are the absolute worst. WORST EVER. Or if you have had a tooth removed - most people are like 'just have juice or pudding or yogurt' ew no fcking way. I don't want that diet.

I want the mashed potato diet. I live for mashed potatoes. I live for potatoes. Period. You can grill, bake, roast, boil, steam, mash all that shit. Baked potatoes are pretty good too - and the toppings are endless. I wouldn't mind trying a taco inside of a baked potato and then top it with plain greek yogurt (additional protein), salsa, avocado and cheese. Oh my god. If a potato and cheese got married and had little cheesy tater tots that would be amazeballs. Seriously. My mouth is watering and it shouldn't be because I am absolutely and dreadfully still full from dinner and that was almost 5 hours ago. Good thing I don't have any sweets at home because I'm kind of craving dessert.

Got off topic but I just wanted to dedicate at least one blog to potatoes. I mean, cucumbers come in a very VERY close second. But I'm team potato. Please see my recent potatoes below. PS - Lets also not forget POTATO CHIPS. *Drops mic*

Sleeping.

I feel like I've always taken advantage of sleep. The power of sleep - not one of life's wonders. You get a good night sleep, you're able to function properly the next day. I never truly appreciated the act of sleep until last night. I'm in bed roughly by 9 pm maybe 9:30 pm and I'm a light sleeper. (perfect mom quality might I add) Jack on the other hand goes to bed around 10:30 pm or 11:00 pm. He admitted he has FOMO - F ear O f M issing O ut but in regards to TV / Facebook videos so he's up watching something so that's the reason why he doesn't go to bed at the same time as me. Well last night the Leaf game was on - and I can only assume that they lost because I didn't hear any screaming at the TV then again I didn't hear anger either and Jack's pretty loud when it comes to Leaf games (major hockey fan). I only heard around 11:19 pm that he was heading to bed. And then the loud breathing started. I can't really tell if it'...

Trying not to get too sick =(

Don't hate me but I did not log my food this week. Trust me, you don't even want to know. Just assume the worst. I told myself I wasn't going to go to the gym or eat healthy and guess what - it was a complete success! Now it's Monday and I am whole heartedly dedicated to getting back to my usual self. Except there's one problem: I'm catching a cold. With that being said, I am so thankful I had a day to meal prep before this sickness gets any worse. Last night I made my 98% shepherd's pie (thanks Kristina 😊 ) with Yves original ground round, julienne carrots and frozen mixed vegetables. Mashed potatoes I added greek yogurt, butter and a splash of almond milk (as seen in the picture below). Kristina, Christine and some green Strong bow.  A reminder to self. Even though I'm feeling a bit under the weather I'm still going to continue this healthy lifestyle and make the necessary changes to build a stronger me - inside and out...

Exhausted.

I am definitely feeling the after affects of eating crappy foods. Do you ever feel oddly tired? Especially since you're well rested and haven't over worked your body..? That's me right now. Although it's not odd at all. I noticed when I eat foods that have little to zero nutritional value my body reacts in a sluggish state. Over the weekend I indulged to a point where I just feel exhausted. I'm staring at the computer blogging and I can barely keep my eyes open . It's lunch time thank goodness so I could take a nap if I wanted to. However, that would be such a tease to my eyes and mental state. Today started off super frustrating as my co-worker did not show up. Generally Monday's are insanely busy. The office is closed on Fridays so we have messages from Thursday evening all the way up until Sunday night. The number of messages ranges between 20-40 and usually 30 (or so) fax messages. Returning those messages alone while having the phones ringing in ...
