Happy Canada Day!!

You know what’s cool about Canada? The fact that unlike the President of United States, who is often referred to as the most powerful person in the world, the Prime Minister of Canada has no checks and balances. See, the President basically shares power with Congress and the Supreme Court with a constitution specifying what he/she can and cannot do. The Prime Minister however shares with no one. Now all I need to do is become PM and have my way with all of Canada.

Good news, I got my hair fixed last night. It no longer looks like a leopard is sitting on my head. Anyway, yesterday morning I woke up at 5:40 and hit the gym for a quick (LONG) 40 minutes on the Elliptical. Lately I’ve been doing smaller strides while clenching my butt. I do not know whether this offers any benefits but I will pretend there are plenty.

Breakfast Cookie


1/3 Cup Oats, 1 Tbsp PB, Cinnamon, 1 Tsp Maca Powder, ¾ Smashed Banana, 2-3 Tbsp Almond. You can use more or less Almond Milk than this. More will give you a more voluptuous slightly soggier cookie while less with make it thinner and chewier.

SO, my parents/bosses left for the AZ house yesterday morning and my Sister and her husband headed to Banff for a wedding. You know what they say, when the cats away the mice will play. I played tetris, freecell, solitaire, Facebook farmville etc. Just kidding. I'm not a member of the farming community.

Lunch Time

Super Salad


No it's not ground hogs day, I really have been eating the same meals for the past several days. Mahi Mahi, Iceberg Lettuce, Tomatoes and Cheesy Sauce (2 Tbsp Hummus,1 Tbsp Nutritional Yeast nd 1 Tbsp Water).

I stopped at Dads on my way home from work and walked out with THIS


My Man is running low on the regular Vanilla Almond Milk and I was running low on Butternut Squashes. There's 5 in that bag to be exact. My Man has many nicknames for me, one of which is Butterson Nut Squash Fry. I earn this nickname from grocery pit stops like this one. When I got to the till the cashier greeted me with, “you wanted some squash did you?”

When I got home it was HOT out and I decided to take Bailey for a walk. I also got in an arm workout since she got tired/too hot 10 away from the Condo Castle. I carried her while she panted and took in the scenery.

Free Weight



Now, I have to mention that something was brought to my attention on this walk. As I passed numerous other people also walking their dogs I began to question this whole dog on a leash thing. I find it odd that out all animals out there the ONLY one we deemed leash worthy is the dog. I mean of course you can walk anything on a leash, if I had a gerbil i'd definitely buy it a mini leash and take it on mini walks, however, society as a WHOLE walks dogs. That's what we do. Why not pigs? Cats? Foxes? Think about it.

When I got home I turned THE HILLS on and made some supper. I think you know what's coming..

Suppa


I burnt my finger while pulling these out of the oven. Since I have yet to learn my lesson and wear oven mitts I used the tea towel to pull these out. I discovered rather quickly that one of my fingers was not covered by the towel. I immediately remembered my sister telling me that in order to stop the burn you must submerge your finger in cold water. Unfortunately, I found the cold tub of Hummus first. SUBMERGE.

When I finished those it was time to ACTUALLY get my hair fixed. Once things were back to normal in the hair department I was ready for a SNACK.



I almost fell asleep face first in the Peanut Butter. Unfortunately I didn't, I made it up to bed and before falling asleep I wrote up a list of changes I will make when I become PM.

1) Integrate the fox into Canadian Households...

I leave you with this...



Oh ya and I may or may not have woken up for THIS

Flatout AHmayzing with Better Buttah.
