After my Legs and Abs workout at the gym it was dinner time. Thankfully! I was so hungry yesterday. I have no idea what prompted it (hibernation weather?). I was out of car snacks so I restocked small snack bags of Raisin Bran cereal and pretzels to keep in my car.<\/p>\n

Michael made turkey burgers for dinner. It’s been quite a while since we’ve had turkey burgers<\/a>. Last night’s were delicious. He added chopped jalapenos and shredded white cheddar to the patties.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Over the weekend I picked up some onion hamburger buns (190 calories each). I was in charge of prepping the buns. Michael grilled the patties in the skillet.<\/p>\n

Saturday night Michael and I made a remarkable dinner<\/a>. \u00a0The sweet potato fries we made were probably the best thing I’ve eaten in a long time. I picked up (what I thought) more sweet potatoes at the store to do it again.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>What the heck did I buy? Did I accidentally pick up yams instead of sweet potatoes? They definitely weren’t as good as Saturday’s night’s creation. \ud83d\ude41<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Michael coated the fries in Grapeseed oil, sprinkled salt and pepper, paprika and garlic powder. We basically recreated the exact recipe as Saturday. The fries weren’t very flavorful. I am so confused!<\/p>\n

After the stressful gym session, I poured myself a glass of Chardonnay. It really hit the spot.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Even though I’m disappointed about the fries, the burgers were great.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Dinner was a good one, even if the fries weren’t as sweet as before. They were still by far better than plain ol’ fries!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>I must have been just worn out last night. I feel asleep immediately (which is strange because I have insomnia). Just as I fell asleep, this little gargoyle jumped on my head:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Michael says I woke up, yelled at the cat for jumping on my head, and then immediately fell back asleep. \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n

This morning I woke up after a solid 9 hours of uninterrupted sleep (awesome) to find Fat Kitty snuggled underneath the blankets spooning me and purring. Awwwwww!<\/p>\n

Michael surprised me with a creative new breakfast:<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>Scrambled eggs with pigs n’ a blanket! He used the crescent rolls and wrapped them around a turkey sausage link! It was awesome. Good invention, Michael!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>It was a great way to start the day: flaky, warm, freshly baked crescent rolls. YUM….<\/p>\n
