Sunny Saturday

I just returned from being gone over night. [a rare experience for me.]
When I walked in my house it smelled stuffy and funny! I cannot stand stale smells! I immediately opened the whole house up and let the fresh air come through. After I air it out I will make a big rip roaring fire and take the chill off. I am addicted to natural smells of lavender and cinnamon, vanilla and nutmeg and apples and oranges and lemons!!!!!!!!!! I think the smell thing must be a strong gene that runs in my family because my Mother and Daughter are the same way!
I just put a pot of vanilla and cinnamon on the stove to simmer and it will make my house smell yummy.

I am making a wonderful lunch. I found the recipe in one of my health food magazines.
It is onions and peppers and shrimp simmered together in a skillet with a touch of olive oil, seasoned with ginger, garlic, and light soy sauce. Next you add tofu and blueberries and pine nuts. [You do not have to add blueberries.] Blueberries are not in the recipe but I add them to almost everything as I am a blueberry fanatic! Anyway, it's delicious and low fat.

I love to eat. But only healthy foods. I alarmed a couple of family members with my last posting when I said I didn't eat because of the shopping thing and wanting to lose another 10 pounds.
I do want to lose 10 pounds, but I would never starve myself to do it. I mentioned it because I NEVER go without eating and it was amazing to me that I did! Honestly, my blog is my journal of thoughts written for no one other than myself and God. I forget that there are actually people who read it!

God bless.
