snack time!

Dear World,
If you know me, you would know that I love to snack. Now that I'm trying to eat clean I can't have my usual goldfish crackers or ruffles potato chips with french onion dip, so when I saw this recipe for collard green chips that are considered "clean" I just HAD to try them. I baked them myself (yeah, I'm proud) and they turned out pretty yummy. They give me that familiar crunchy salty taste that I love but are also healthy! I went a little heavy on the Cayenne so I can't give Rowyn any to try, but next time I plan on making a batch that she can enjoy also. 

Prepped and ready to bake

After baking. It looks a little bit like these seaweed chips my grandma use to get at the hong kong market.

You can find the recipe here on Jess's blog IROCKSOWHAT.

Sincerely, 

Lea

Ramblings of procrastination.

Dear World,
Do you know what bugs the crap out of me? When people do not understand the concept of homonyms.
It makes my eyes bleed when I see some one write "to" when they mean to write "too" and I am ready to sock some one when they use the word "two" when they are not talking about the number.
Let's go over it, shall we?

To-toward
Too-Also

Poor-Not rich
Pour-To make flow
Pore-on your face

Affect-Change
Effect-result or consequence

Aunt-Your mother or father's sister
Ant-A bug

Bye-Goodbye
Buy-To purchase
By-Beside


Knew-Did know
New-Not old

There-Talking about a place
Their-Talking about some one's belonging
They're- They are

In other news:
I'm starting the Eat Clean diet. I've been inspired by Jess and her amazing weigh loss. (Seriously, she looks freaking HOT! I say that in the least creepy way possible because I do not like girls that way.)
Starting Tomorrow night (because I have to wait for Brennan to come home from work to go shopping so during the day I'll be living off of left of spaghetti and papa johns pizza) I will be eating clean.
I WILL NOT BE A LARD ANY LONGER!

Goodbye, dear old friend. (BTW jalapeno pizza is THE BEST!)

Sincerely,

Lea
