The past couple of days, I haven't really felt like eating. I've pretty much had to force myself to eat, and even then, it was something dense and small with high protein/good fat content.
I've really messed myself up with the sleep thing. Here it is. 3:30 am and I'm up again. Must have been the nap I took yesterday. This is really frustrating. Tonight I feel I am going to need some pharmaceutical support. (wink) And with the time change, it's going to be darker, later this morning so I can't even get out and do the work in the yard that needs to be done. I have 30 bags of mulch to spread. I suppose I will get a few inside chores done, along with a few orders rom my jewelry supply shop. Would love to be able to ride the bike at some point today. I laid out in the sun for a bit yesterday. It was nice to get some color on me. Might do that again today. I could use a haircut, but don't know if my girl will be there today.
Last night I made the most delicious vegetable side dish to go with my dinner.
An eggplant lasagna to hav with my london broil.
1 eggplant, slice 1/4" thick rounds
1 sm can tomato sauce (no sugar added)
1/2 15oz container of Ricotta Cheese
1 whole egg (beaten)...
minced garlic
Mrs Dash Garlic & Herb seasoning
Mozzarella cheese (shredded)
1 pkt stevia Mix together sauce and stevia (set aside)
Mix together egg, ricotta, garlic and seasoning
Layer sauce, eggplant, ricotta mixture (in that order) evenly, until the ingredients are gone
I used a loaf pan....
Bake at 350 for 40 mins, top with shredded mozzarella and continue baking until cheese is melted.
I'd say it makes 3 servings Enjoy!
The new puppy is acclimating well. And my dog Chowder is accepting her without an issue.
Need to go get a doggie gate some time today. Trying to stay close to home this weekend, as I don't know what she may do when I turn my back....hahahha
