In trying to make healthier food choices suppers this week have looked like this:
I dont really use 'recipes' for salads...I just add whatever is available. This one had regular iceberg lettuce, raddicio, red leaf lettuce, kale, red peppers, carrots, onion, and a few black olives and tomatoes.
once mixed it looks more like this:
Topped with some shredded cheese for protein and chopped walnuts for crunch.
I got the cute sturdy colorful plastic salad bowls at Publix. Love them.
I am also giving the green tea a try. So far I dont much care for it, but I have read it is so good for us.
I know that one small square of the good dark chocolate (70% or higher of the cocoa) per day is good for our hearts, so I have mine with a few walnuts which gives me good omega 3s and makes it taste like a really decadent candy bar! I like mine in the afternoon!
Wrapping up some DIYprojects this weekend including this lamp which turned out just like I wanted!

AFTER
I just love this shade of emerald green!
The fun orange and white lamp shade is from the Dollar Store and was only $5.00. So if you have a drab or boring room an EMERALD GREEN LAMP AND AN ORANGE ZIG ZAG lamp shade will probably liven it right up!
This week's reading:
This book was so good. It was about a military family and spanned a few eras and three wars. If focuses mainly on two sisters and begins in the 1930s and goes up to the early 80s.
