Notes from the Trenches....

Hey all!!!!! I write to you today whilst stuffing my face with my newest addiction - KALE CHIPS! So I read about them eons ago on Kath's blog and always put it in the back of my mind that I wanted to try them. The verdict? Obviously, why did I wait so long!!!! My only worry is what my stomach is going to be like later after eating the pile of kale chips.

My variation, for the record, was:
*one bunch of washed and dried kale, chopped into bite size pieces
*garlic powder
*salt
*a few sprays of canola oil
*drizzle of red wine vinegar

I baked at 350 for 10 minutes, flipped and then did 8 more minutes. Delish!

So now that I've gotten that off my chest, let's talk about me. Yes me! This is my blog after all! It's been a tough start to the school year. Chaotic. I'm feeling like the Stay-Puf Marshmallow man. And really, what I need to do, is get over myself! I'm constantly stuck on the bad -- like will there be enough to pay the mortgage and the bills. And you know what, I just need to breathe and let the universe provide. It always does!

This week, I stayed the same. I got myself out of bed this morning and took the dog for a walk. That's a start, right?

Well I'm off to eat more kale.....this time in my Kale, White Bean and Turkey Sausage Soup! Yum yum, I love fall!!!!

Love and hugs,
FGS
