Today has been a good day. Church and spending an afternoon with my family (John and Graysen). We went to the mall after church just to walk around. We do this occasionally and well it’s just sort of fun to get out. Then we came home and took a much needed nap.  Tonight I made Chile Rellenos (My mother-in -laws recipie- she is a super awesome cook! ). I thought I would share it since I love it so much.

Chile Rellenos:

So first you have to have a wonderful Mother-In-Law who will bring you Hatch Green Chiles from New Mexico.

Next cook the ground beef and onions in a skillet.

Next: Put your ground meat and onion mixture in the chilies and add a bit of cheddar cheese.

Then roll and make the topping.

After you mix 1 1/2 cups milk, 4 eggs, 1/4 cup flour and a bit of salt and pepper you can pour the mixture over the chilies.

Bake at 350 degrees for 30 to 45 minute until it puffs. After the top is puffed you add a bit of cheddar cheese and then it looks like this:

We followed dinner with Turnovers since I’m not technically starting the diet until tomorrow.

They are Pillsbury and they are wonderful! Take a look:

So on with the goals. I decided to include a Before Photo for your laughing enjoyment.

Hopefully in a few weeks I will look a little less frumpy!

For the record:

Meds Taken, Kitchen Clean and Laundry Going!

Back to work in the morning!

Anyhow, those of you who know me know that I can’t go though a post without putting pictures of Graysen, so here she is!

I had a sleep over with my girls group last Wednesday. Since the majority of my girls are now in college I don’t get to see them as much as I would like. We had fun all getting together and playing games, hanging out and eating. I made homemade getti.

So I have been doing good so far. I made dinner tonight pan seared pork chops with garlic cream gravy and mashed potatoes and it was yummy. Calorie cutting starts on Monday. Wish me luck! Also dishes are done! Still working on Laundry! Pills taken and this was indeed a B-E-A-utiful day!!
