Sugar Free Challenge- Day 1- FAILURE

FAILURE!!!


No really it was a FAILURE-- but I have learned a lot!!


So yes-- I failed with in 10 minutes of being awake-- HOW TERRIBLE is that!?! I totally was NOT thinking-- I woke up-- started my coffee-- (which when it was made I put Agave Nectar in) but I grabbed a pice of Pamela's gf chocolate cake-- have I mentioned these cakes are SOOOO easy to make they should come with WARNINGS!!! Totally wasn't thinking-- but DID NOT give up on the day.


I do think I am going to steer away from the Agave for future-- not sure what I'm going to put in my coffee-- but I am going to limit to 1 small mug full-- then on to HOT TEA with HONEY!! Yummmm


So then came lunch-- FAILED again-- can you beleive it-- we had ham sandwiches (with real ham) and I just really wanted something on my toasted bread-- so I passed on the mayo (it was low-- and really I knew sugar would be high) but I thought my mustard would be a better fit-- no it had sugar listed-- so I went LIGHT..... Still it was eye opening--


Then came dinner- FAILED AGAIN!! Can you even believe this-- we had quesadilla's-- and I put some salsa on mine-- BAD idea-- ughhhhh


But I have to tell you we had some hot tea after our dinner-- and it was DELICIOUS!! ENJOYABLE-- RELAXING!!!




I read them and really am HOPEFUL for tomorrow-- because


I have the lacto sauerkraut-- in the fridge-- if that would help with the cravings that would be AWESOME!!


Apple Cider Vinegar-- oh yea-- it is IN HIGH DEMAND in our COLD KICKER remedy!!


Hot tea-- oh yes-- that is VERY NICE-- I'm not normally a hot tea drinker-- but sitting after dinner with my oldest 2 boys sipping tea-- was VERY nice-- and RELAXING!


Need to work on having the good fat snacks ready....

Laine's Letters

3 Years, it has been 3 years since I have updated this blog. Hoping to continue to journal our happenings. First I wanted to leave a link for Laine's Letters. Oh my these letters have been SOOOOO  encouraging to me like NOTHING else. She inspired me to spend my morning with the Lord, waiting on Him, listening to Him. She inspired me to love my husband and put him right after the Lord She inspired me to raise and love and train my children in many areas And lastly she even touched on keeping my home, to bring honor to the Lord. I want to come back (SOON) and print these off and put them in a binder for each of my daughters.   Hoping that one day these letters will inspired them as well. Laine's Letters archives

Immigrant 1880-1914 food budget

So we went on a mini field trip this weekend to the Johnstown Flood Museum and then to the Heritage Center -- "Through Immigrant Eyes, tells a national story in a local context. It captures the imaginations of visitors through its innovative use of interactive media. Rather than simply looking at artifacts, you'll actually experience the sights, sounds and even the smells of immigrants' daily lives, and come away with a more complete understanding of the sacrifices and achievements of these Americans in the making. As you enter, you'll choose a card with a photo of one of eight immigrant characters, who are fictional composites based on historical facts. You then experience the daily life of that character as you tour the museum. " Well the "foodie" in me-- found a few sights VERY interesting.... the entire center was very interesting.... but-- in 1880-1914 these were some signs we saw.... "It was terribly hard work, and we lived poorly, But we ate ...

The best way to get back in (for me) is a Day Book. I'm not sure if they even still have a "Simple Woman's Day Book" or not, but I always enjoyed them. Daybook for the week of June 12, 2016 Picture for the week........                                                The birthday boy -  He turned 12 on Saturday-- ( this picture is from Thanksgiving though, I haven't down loaded my phone pictures yet though.  ) Outside my window..... Things are green, and showers today have made my garden very happy I am thinking..... About starting in with some school for the kids next week. About dipping our feet in with some potty training. About the how very deep the spiritual side of adoption is, and how constant. I am thankful for..... ...
