Question day a bit late!

Wednesday, May 09, 2012

Guess who forgot it was Wednesday??

Guess who was having too much fun on my bike to remember it was question day?

Yep that was me!

So better late than never it's Question Day

1. Do you like avocado? Do you worry about the fat or not worry because it's a healthy fat?? I never used to like the texture of avocados but I've grown to love them. Believe it or not I'm notorious for not getting enough fat in my daily diet so I'm going to try to have them more often.

2. What is your favourite thing about spring?? Definitely getting out for my walks/biking and smelling the wonderfully blooming trees! I love watching how everything is getting greener and greener :)

3. What do you put in your coffee/tea? I still put sweetener and 5% cream in my coffee. Herbal teas I can drink plain or some with sweetener. I am going to try stevia soon. Any suggestions for a good brand?

4. What is your favourite spice?? No main favourites but I am going to be trying sumat which is supposed to be lemony. I do love cinnamon.

5. Do you plan so that you have a guilt free weekend? I never used to but the BLC challenge I'm in makes a point of planning for a strong end to the week. Now that I'm not sick any more I'm ready to kick butt.

1. I used to HATE avocados! Ate a bad one and threw up....probably the hot dog, and not the avocado, but that's all it took (I was 9). Grew up with 5 acres of avocado trees and an even bigger ranch next door. Didn't realize I LOVED them till I was in my 20's! Waste! LOL Now I just LOVE them!!!

2. Favorite part of spring - the COLORS! I love watching the birds and everything coming to life!!!

3. In my coffee? A gallon of sugar, and a half gallon of half and half! Oh yeah, and a tablespoon of dark roasted coffee :-D

4. Favorite spice - that's a tough one! I really like mexican spices - cuman stands out...

5. I always go into my weekends with a "loose" plan...and boy have they been LOOSE! :-D That's why I so wanted to do this STRONGEND plan - because weekends are when we do the most damage! All that relaxing and zero structure is just a free for all in the making! Not anymore - now they're "get it done" days :-D

    1. I am a Californian, and therefore (by law) LOVE avos!!! I keep the amounts small, but I love to add an ounce to sandwiches, salads, and, of course, anything Mexican...

2. The taste of strawberries and other produce. YUM!

3. Black. I dabble in flacored coffees (like French Vanilla, or my in-laws always have Cinnabon flavored coffee- so goood!), and I often sprinkle a little cinnamon into my grinder.

4. I put black pepper in so much, but I also love and adore cumin, cayenne, and cinnamon.

5. I never do a "rules off" kind of day or weekend, but sometimes I plan for a hearty meal (like pizza and wine or a burger and fries) and make adjustments throughout the week to lighten my totals.

    1. I’ve really started to like avocados but don’t eat them often as I can never seem to eat them fast enough (before they go brown & spotty).
2. Daylight Savings Time! I love that there is more light in the evenings. Like my friend Zanna I’m solar powered so I have more energy.
3. Nothing. I don’t drink coffee and drink my teas straight… except for the occasional chai latte.
4. Cinnamon I think. I don’t use enough spices to be sure of any others. I’d like to start trying more but hate the cost/size of the containers.
5. I’m trying to plan more for the weekends, but still wing it most of the time… flexibility is my middle name (in all but the physical sense).
