And *inspired by you* I made sweet potato pancakes yesterday....I don't have a waffle maker, but may buy one now.....

Oooh, now that’s a good idea! Yeah, a waffle maker isn’t too pricy. I actually have a t-fal one that cost under $30 and it has interchangeable plates where you can make sandwich pockets or waffles. Kinda nifty actually!

SWEETTTTTT Sounds like an awesome time Rooney

It was an awesome time, Tre! I remember thinking last night while lying in bed if the day really happened.

Bye bye Mr. Miami you have officially been KICKED TO THE CURB!!!!

This totally had me Thanks for the laugh, SG!!! Yes, this is what I have to tell Mr Miami now:

Yes, this is what I have to tell Mr Miami now:

HILARIOUS! Love it!

Roony, you are seriously still my hero, woman!

Your stats are awesome, your menus are KILLER, and holy cow -- your variety in workouts is just OUTSTANDING! I'm seriously blown away by how many different things you do. It actually sounds FUN to me, even though I manage to make progress on my repetitive things.

I just know I'm going to get so many ideas for lifts from you. I have a really easy time understanding what you're doing and talking about too in your worktouts, so I don't know if you had that in mind when you started logging, but THANK YOU because it makes me feel less stupid.

Keep it up, lady! I'm seriously blown away.

Hey Roons!! I'm definitely going to look for a waffle maker somewhere.......

Went to Trader Joe's today.....got something called Pinju sauce which is a spicy, red sauce - figured it'd be good on chicken......But MY TJ's doesn't have the Carne Asada style chicken - only beef....

T-Cake, I so appreciate your kind words!! It’s good to hear you actually have an easy time understanding my workouts because I do put some effort to try to describe them accurately. I want to be able to understand what the heck I was doing if I go back and read my log. I love being able to have a forum like this to record all this stuff and if it helps someone else, hey, even better!! And you seriously made my day with all the nice stuff you said!!

Jens, you should be able to find a waffle make at Kohls or Target. I actually bought mine via Amazon. It was free shipping since it was over $25 and it showed up at my doorstep without me having to make much of an effort. This is the model I have:

Let me know how the Pinjur sauce is. I bought some a while back, but I can’t friggin’ open the jar. I haven’t had the patience to run the lid under water or whatever trick it takes to pop the stupid jar. That’s too bad that you couldn’t get the Carne Asada chicken. Does your TJs not carry it at all or was it just out of stock? Their southwestern seasoned chicken isn’t a bad alternative.

We have a couple of kitchen stores around here - I need a pedicure on Wednesday & one is right there, so I may check it out for the waffle maker.....

And on not being able to get the jar open.......either 1) run the jar under hot water or 2) bang the handle of a butter knife against the sides of the lid (NOT the glass) OR both....

TJs didn't even have a spot for it, like marked on the shelf but empty....got some frozen seasoned fish tho....Turbado or something like that...

I was definitely in a little bit of a fowl mood yesterday without my chicken I just don't like being unprepared and next time, I should just stick to light tuna packed in water. Otherwise, I'm doing well. Sounds like you're having a lot of fun with your pups!
