Whew, Tuesday is almost over! My meeting went well, I still have no idea which career path I’ll choose but it is exciting to learn about the options. After my meeting I swung by the house to pick up the husband, who graciously offered to go along on my printing/mailing resume errands.
True Story – while we were driving he got annoyed that I don’t know what I want to do and said – “You’ll never know what you want to do. Next thing I’ll know you’ll want to be a turnip! Do you need to go back to school to be a turnip!?!” And now he has called me Turnip for the rest of the day. Holy cow I love my funny husband!
On our way home – resumes successfully mailed, hopefully I will be substituting at some point – we stopped in The Spot for coffee.

I got a small Chaider; steamed apple cider and chai tea. Mmn, fall! I actually think I’m going to head back to the Spot to work tomorrow, I haven’t been getting much done at home 😦
I was feeling sick with hunger when we got home so I got a snack while I worked on my lab (which I can not do without help, boo!).

A bumped log,

with Granny Smith slices with cinnamon caramel apple dip.

I had a coupon for the dip and you know I’m a sucker for all foods fall.

After struggling with Chemistry for forever I moved on to making dinner. On the meal plan was a recipe from the November “Everyday with Rachael Ray” ‘lightened up’ moussaka.


I can’t share the recipe but if you bought the magazine and are planning to try it here are the changes I made:
- used 99% lean ground turkey instead of beef
- skipped the food processor and used low fat whipped cottage cheese
- used half graffiti eggplants
- add 1/2 pint mushrooms

We actually got busy and didn’t even eat dinner so I’ll have to review the recipe tomorrow! I have a busy day planned tomorrow – no room for headaches! – so don’t be surprised if I don’t post until dinner. Night!
Don’t forget to enter my Zevia giveaway!
I totally ripped that recipe out, too!! I haven’t made it yet…I’m excited to see what you thought of it.
Also that cider/chai mix sounds UNREAL. I might have to make my own mix of that today.
I always called your “bumped log”…”ants on a log” – and I had never heard of another name for it. Funny.
I think my husband and I have had similar conversations because I definitely struggle with knowing what I want to do with my life.
Gah, don’t tell me chemistry is hard! It’s coming up soon… 😦
And I can think of far worse insults than “turnip,” haha…
i am loving your sun kissed photos lately. so pretty! haha.. turnip. your husband is a crack up.
Hey now, I bet being a turnip requires some degree of higher learning 😛
Love the moussaka! That is hands down, one of my favourite dishes of all time.
