Oh, we played the waiting game HARD today! We offered on a house last night, heard back, re-offered, heard back, and re-offered again. Just when I thought all hope was lost, the seller said he’d sleep on it and get back to us tomorrow morning. I’m not holding out much hope… but we’ll see!
I’ve been told this is all a normal part of house huntin’ but BOY – it’s so stressful. I was on pins and needles all day.
Tried my hand at a gluten-free lunch – quinoa, carrots, asparagus, spinach, and chickpeas. With some creamy balsamic balsamic dressing.
When people say, “I could never go vegetarian!†I always reply that there are so many meals they eat every day are vegetarian already, and they don’t even realize it! Perhaps that’s how eating a reduced gluten diet will be… it might be painless (minus the beer issue). I don’t have to complete eliminate gluten, and I’m not going all the way right away anyway. Easier transition.
Small steps! Hopefully, little efforts will add up to a healthier and happier me.
Cookies for dessert… I had a few Homemade by Amanda salted caramel sprinkle sticks. She made them for Tonya and I snagged a few.
In the midst of house negotiations, I sat in bed and worked on my book. I think I finally got tired of Starbucks and park benches. Needed a change of pace. Normally, I fall asleep working in bed but it was quite productive.
Husband was in charge of dinner – he made a good spread! A veggie burger, roasted yellow potatoes, steamed red cabbage, asparagus, and broccoli.
HAPPY FRIDAY, friends!!!!
I hope you get the house you want. Wishing you luck!
Your lunch looks fantastic. I read your previous post and everything you said really sounded right to me. I get really tired when I don’t have a lot of cooking time, and that is usually because of all the pasta and bread I eat when I’m in a bunch.
