Cakes Galore

Happy Sunday Evening All!

It is now officially 3 weeks of school left until summer vacation. It can’t come soon enough. I’m pretty burnt out this year so I can’t wait for the summer. I still think it’s going to be a long three weeks.

This weekend has been full of babies, cake and good eats. Since it’s been a while since I’ve posted about my eats so I’ll just give my highlights.

Although this wasn’t on the weekend I’ll start with a yummy meal Matt and I made earlier in the week.

Chicken Pineapple Quesadillas from The Pioneer Woman’s website.

My ingredients list:

• 2 grilled chicken breasts
• grilled pineapple
• whole wheat wraps
• cheddar cheese
• jalapeno pepper (for Matt)

First grill up the chicken…

 

And the pineapple…

On one wrap sprinkle some cheddar…

Then add the grilled chicken, pineapple (and jalapeno if you like spicy peppers) and a little more cheddar…

Then add the second wrap and cook on each side for 3-5 mins.

Perfect…

Served with some organic carrots and baby tomatoes…

Other meals this weekend included some of my cheesy pasta on Friday night…

 

A hummus and veggie wrap from Healthy Way at the mall on Saturday afternoon…

This included hummus, lettuce, cucumbers, sprouts, carrots and broccoli all on a whole wheat wrap.

This was amazing! I will definitely be back to get another one. Very reasonable priced too.

After lunch on Saturday we heading to our friends son’s first birthday. There was so much food there.

Sandwiches and Cheese tray…

Veggie tray and fruit tray…

Lots of chips…

And more cake then any one year old would ever need.

Mickey cake…

And a baby Mickey cake for Gavin…

Fruit Mickey cakes…

A football cake…

And a black forest cake for the adults…

Who needs that much cake? Really? Anyways I did great I kept to veggies and fruit at the party with a couple of slices of cheese. I also split 1/2 a piece of black forest cake with the hubby. Just before leaving I had a tiny slice of the Mickey cake but over all I did great!

Here are a couple of other pics from the party:

Dinner last night was leftovers.

This morning I went to a friends baby’s baptism. They live in England so this is the first time they’ve been back since Sophie was born so it was great to see them.

 

Dinner tonight was a huge salad! In the bowl organic spinach, red, orange and green peppers, cucumbers, carrots, baby tomatoes and blueberries.

And a few BBQ ribs..

Delicious!

I have more news to tell but since this was already a long post I’ll leave that for tomorrow evening.

Also, if you didn’t check out my post on My Water and Yoga Challenge check it out. I’d love any support/suggestions that you might have.

I’m again blogging while watching hockey (I’m a huge fan – can’t you tell :P) so I can’t leave without saying:

Go HAWKS GO!!!

There up 3-0 so this game seems to be going better then Friday night’s game.
