900 and Friday randomness

So yesterday was my 900th post! That's just plain crazy to me! This blog is getting old!

Okay, recipe opinions for this week (see recipe links in a few posts below), the warm goat cheese salad...well, I LOVED the goat cheese aspect and am glad I now know how to make the breaded rounds, however the dressing wasn't my fave. I felt like the dressing was too olive oil-y, and kind of bitter, next time I will try a different/sweeter dressing and will also add some candied pecans or something to give it more substance. Adam LOVED the chicken dish, I just liked it. The cheese seemed a little tangy (man alive am I getting picky in my old age!) to me, I LOVED the mushrooms and will likely make this again, I just didn't love it like Adam did. The beef and broccoli was good! It didn't make as much as I thought it would and I think it had a little too much broccoli but I would say its a keeper (never found any arrowroot so just left that out).

Speaking of food, and good, low-carb food at that, I've officially lost 5lbs, 16 more to go! (that seems like A LOT to me, its a loooooooooooooong road). I've bought some new shorts recently and although I've only lost 5lbs I'm already down a pant size, that's been fun/encouraging to see!)

Yesterday Brennan and I spent a considerable amount of time discussing her birthday party for this year, its FIVE MONTHS AWAY people!! My girl looooves her birthday! (wonder where she gets that from?) :)

I miss mi casa.

I'm photographing a wedding tomorrow, I wonder who has more stomach knots, me or the bride?! (probably me, the bride seems pretty chill) :)

Kung Fu Panda 2 is FINALLY out! We are hoping to take B today, she's been sooo excited for it to come out!

Ummm.....what else? I think that pretty much sums up whats going on over here in the Winn household, do any of you have fun weekend plans ahead? Well, whatever you're up to, hope its great and that you are enjoying some sun like we are here in Waco! xo

Nice job on the 5 pounds! And doesn't it feel awesome to fit into smaller clothes!!! I'm trying to shed some poundage myself before we head home and gorge ourselves for 6 - 8 weeks ... not fun, but I know I'll be glad I did it. Happy Friday ~ it's already Saturday here :)

Woohoo!! on the 5lbs loss and losing a pant size! That is a great accomplishment and encouraging when you see physical results like that when shopping. Rather than think of the 16lbs to go that feel overwhelming, perhaps set another mini-goal of 5lbs to work toward? Every 5lbs will add up and pretty soon you'll be at your goal weight. I KNOW you can do it Molls.

GOOD LUCK with the wedding today! Get the classics to cover your butt and then let your heart get the creative moments.
