Good morning yall! I hope everyone is having a great week so far! Ours is rather calm, which is nice before we have a visitor and lots of plans for the weekend. Grab a cup of coffee and let’s chat!
———————————————————————-
Much needed cup of coffee today. I’m not sure why I am so exhausted, but I can’t seem to wake up today.
Thankfully, little (or should I say BIG) Bennie has stopped the whining and slept great last night.
All of the doggies were super tired last night and took a little nap before bed. Ahh sibling love… just melts my heart. (These two have come a long way.. it took quite some time for them to even go near each other).
Have I mentioned I love kale salads? 😉 I always make a huge bowl of washed, chopped, and massaged kale to have for the week so the prep work is already done. Here are a few ways I have been eating the kale salad the last couple of days.
Lunch Monday was kale salad with avocado, craisins, pecans and balsamic dressing and a side of roasted sweet potato fries.
Dinner was simple with a kale salad with the same toppings and a veggie burger for some staying power. (My husband loves this meal, which is always a plus).
Kale salad to-go for lunch at work with some fruit and raw veggies on the side (not pictured).
Another beautiful sunset picture at the lake from my daddy. Breathtaking!
Gotta keep it short today, off to work! Talk to you all tomorrow!
Questions:
- Do you like kale? Kale Chips, smoothies, salads?
- Are you a coffee drinker?
- What are you having for lunch today?

Kale is absolutely one of my favorite salad bases. I recently started to try kale wraps at a restaurant and I love them. Thanks for sharing!

I love kale! I am having leftover Chicken Chili for lunch and it’s warm and tasty which is perfect for a cold day. I’m so over winter cold already!

That sounds delicious! I make a sweet potato chili that I love on a cold winter day! I am so over the cold too! Although it is 60 degrees in Dallas today so I’m pretty happy about that!
