Sooooooo, life got a bit in the way of blogging the last days 🙂 . My excuses. So, in short this is what happened since last Thursday:
On Thursday I went to the hairdresser 🙂 . I’ve eaten: chocobanana pudding for breakfast, an omelette (made with 1 goose egg) with bacon and some leftover bolognese-sauce for lunch. Dinner was whiting with oven roasted parsnips and red beets, clementine for dessert. Movement/play: hairdresser 🙂
Friday: starting with movement/play: I left really early and drove all the way to Tongeren. I didn’t go there to visit this beautiful town or the Gallo-Roman museum (luckily I already did, it’s really worth it!), instead I went for a sexy lingerie-photo shoot. First a professional beautician did my make-up. After that I had an appointment with the photographer (a really nice lady) in a nice hotel room. I was so nervous, but the photographer really reassured me. So I put on my most sexy lingerie and killer heels and followed all the directions the photographer gave me. I got to change twice and lots of pictures were made, but I didn’t see any of them yet! The pictures will be ready in 10 days, just in time for a Valentines Day gift to my DH 🙂 . No, don’t even ask, they will NOT be shared on my blog :p . Eats: blueberry-coconut-muffins (no added sugar, sweetened with apple sauce only) with butter for breakfast. I had lunch with an ‘online-friend’ (we’ve know each other for several years but never met IRL!), we both had a warm salad with bacon and apple. Diner was Mark’s Daily Apple Crispy Carnitas (soooo good!!!) with raw vegetables, guacamole and sour cream.
Saturday: Movement/play: grocery shopping early in the morning; CrossFit with the whole family; little niece’s birthday party in the afternoon; preparation for Diddy’s birthday party in the evening. Breakfast: greek yogurt with a banana and clementine. Lunch was leftover carnitas with romaine salad. There was cake at the birthday party, but I didn’t eat any (just had some coffee). Steak, homemade french fries and a salad for diner.
Sunday: Movement/play: cleaning the house and preparing for Diddy’s birthday party in the morning. Good time with the family afternoon/evening. Breakfast: I honestly don’t remember. Lunch: smoked fish with a salad. Diner with the whole family: antipasti (dates filled with camembert and smoked almonds, olives, chorizo, raw ham); tomato soup with little meatballs; oven-roasted chicken thighs, for the family with parboiled rice and homemade pineapple-curry-sauce. Diddy asked Nutella cake for his birthday party, so I made it (with real Nutella, instead of my own version; because I know it made him happy. Just for this once 😉 – but it’s grainfree at least). I also made a grainfree applecake. I had a small piece of both cakes. I used to absolutely love the Nutella-cake before going paleo! Well, I didn’t even want to finish the little piece I had this time, it just doesn’t taste as good as I remembered. The apple cake is delicious though (no refined sugar, less sweet).
Monday: Movement/play: not much, back at the office. Breakfast: greek yogurt with banana and blood orange; lunch: a crustless quiche with zucchini, raw ham and freshly grated parmesan; diner: leftover chicken thighs with oven-roasted parsnip, sweet potato and fennel.
I’ll try to get back to more regular blogging as of tomorrow!
It’s interesting that your tastes have changed, and that the Nutella cake wasn’t as good as you thought it was. That’s a great thing to hear.
A good thing indeed 🙂 . It was way too sweet for me now!
