Good Afternoon!! Actually had a really nice weekend, with a little R&R.  The weather on Saturday was gorgeous.  Sunny and 60!!  Being that my doctor recently prescribed Vitamin D for me, and I need to lower my cholesterol as well, I took advantage of the beautiful day, and took a walk through our park with the boys.  Strapped on my pedometer and logged over 4000 steps, which is a little over a mile and a half.  This may not be a big deal for some, but for me, it was, I don’t walk anywhere.  As I was getting ready, I overheard Ben telling Elijah how nice it was outside, and that we were getting ready to go for a walk, he says, “It’s really nice outside.  It’s so nice, that even mom is going for a walk, she doesn’t walk anywhere!!”  Yeah…it’s like that.  See my pics below in FAVORITE PIC FROM THE CAMERA.  Enjoy the week, we are getting back to some cooler temps.

RECIPE I WANT TO TRY/HAVE TRIED:

My mom had found this recipe for No Bake Chocolate Oat Bars.  So I tried those this weekend.  They turned out pretty good.  The recipe calls for an 8 x 8 pan.  I wanted to make a bigger pan, I only increased the recipe by half, next time I’ll double it.

You can find the recipe here.

Next one I’d like to try is Slow Cooker Mongolian Beef
