Out with the Old, In with the New

Today's closet reorganization project was successful! Both Mal and I cleaned-out and edited our wardrobes, and between the two of us, we donated over 50 items to Big Brothers, Big Sisters! It felt great to downsize and have a "fresh" start! I'm surprised that we had so many pieces that we didn't wear or that were worn-out. I guess it really needed to be done! 

Brunch this morning was a simple Frittata made with potato, fresh basil, onion, garlic, prosciutto, and cheddar cheese. I don't remember the exact measurements for the recipe-- I just threw together all of the ingredients in a large mixing bowl, then poured it in a greased baking tin, and cooked it in the oven at 375* for about 20 minutes. Frittatas are so yummy and easy to make-- I definitely should make them more often! (For brunch, I ate about 1/4 of the frittata.) 

Approximate measurements:

6 eggs

1 medium potato (cooked until tender and thinly sliced)

1/2 onion chopped

1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese

1 clove of garlic

1 tbsp fresh basil chopped

3-4 slices of prosciutto

salt and pepper to taste 

About an hour after breakfast, I was hungry again, so I decided to make myself a snack: half of a piece of whole wheat bread with Barney Butter and peanut butter and chocolate chips. (Barney Butter is a scary new obsession of mine!!! I'm worried it might replace peanut butter in my diet! It's THAT delicious!)

Mal and I spent a good hour or so reorganizing our closets. Once we finished, we made plans to go downtown to do a little shopping and meet our friend Jon for coffee. (Not pictured: a tall iced coffee with soy milk from Starbucks.) Before we left, I ate another snack. I didn't want lunch, but I knew I'd be hungry again in a couple of hours. 

I decided on a small bowl of Stonyfield plain yogurt with strawberries and part of a Honest Foods Blueberry Vanilla Crackle Granola Plank. It was the perfect snack: satisfying and delicious! I'm loving the Honest Food Granola Planks! Now I understand what all of the buzz was about! 

Dinner tonight was an Annie's Organic Skillet Meal made with ground turkey, tomato, and red onion. Annie's is always a great meal, but with the turkey, tomato, and onion, it was outstanding! The Skillet Meal makes a huge portion, so we have a lot of leftovers for tomorrow. (Evening snack not pictured: A small bowl of Kashi Go Lean Crunch mixed with part of a granola plank and milk. Dinner was too early this evening!)
