Good Sunday Morning! It's been a long week as my oldest child had a bad chest cold and top that with asthma and little to no sleep for a few nights in a row and you've got one tired momma! My hubby was out of town traveling last week and came home on the weekend with the flu!! At least myself and my younger two kiddies are doing just fine. Prayers are always welcomed though 🙂
We've got an exciting monumental event happening this week, my daughter is turning double digits!!! She is super excited! We have a family tradition to go out to eat wherever the birthday child wants for their night and we'll be having a little party with some friends for her too. I'm seeing cake making and party planning in my near future!

Hi Brenda,
I am trying to get into doing Weight Watchers along with eating clean. I have done them both at different times and loved them both. I am looking for some great recipes. I am looking forward to eating clean again because last time I did it, I had never felt so great. I struggled with doing it 24/7 because things come up and you want to go out to eat. Any suggestions?

I don't go out to eat often maybe once a month but when I do I just avoid the bread basket, stick with protein veggies, potato, no pasta, enjoy a salad and skip dessert. You can do it but you might need to not go out as frequently since the portions are always huge.

PRAY they are better soon.
