IN MY DREAMS

I HATE LAUNDRY!!! 

I don't mind doing it.  That's the easy part.  It's the putting-it-away part that I have a problem with.  I had to put away laundry from about a month ago, combined with the laundry I did the other morning.  UGH!  However, when I do it, I do it right!  I even fold my underwear.

I made some ORANGE BLUEBERRY MUFFINS yesterday that I had for BREAKFAST today.  I used a store bought mix, but added some orange zest and replaced the oil with pumpkin for a little healthy kick.  I also used a mini muffin pan because I feel like I'm eating more when I have two little ones verses one big muffin.

I also threw in a smoothie for good measure.  It's obviously NOT from Seattle's Best.  I usually save my cups when I get drinks out and reuse them a few times. 

MANGO + 1/2 BANANA + ALMOND MILK + 1 TSP SPLENDA WITH FIBER + COCONUT EXTRACT + ICE CUBES

I made LUNCH at work.  I was CRAVING brussel sprouts!!!  Who craves brussel sprouts?

BRUSSEL SPROUTS + TOMATO SAUCE

So I know I SAID that I was done with kitchen appliances but....I'm really LUSTING after these two babies:

 BREVILLE 800JEXL JUICE FOUNTAIN ELITE JUICER I now have a Vitamix for my smoothies, but I can't make fresh juice!  I'm not really into drinking too much fruit juice because it is so high in calories and sugar.  However, I figure I can sneak a bunch of veggies into my juice to cut down on the high calorie content.  This would set me back around $250, so it's a bit of an investment.  A girl can dream...

NESCO DEHYDRATOR Drying my own fruit and homemade macaroons!!!  Who wouldn't want to do that?!?  This item is about $50 so it's not as much of an investment as the juicer.  The only problem is that my kitchen is getting WAY too cramped with all of my "gadgets"!!!
