What I Ate Wednesday

Wow, I FINALLY remembered to take pictures of everything I ate for one entire day. Doesn’t sound that hard, but I sure as heck couldn’t remember for the life of me.

Ready to see everything I ate yesterday? Of course you are! Let’s go …

Breakfast: One egg hardboiled in my neato microwave contraption, one English Muffin with I Can’t Believe It’s Not Butter, orange juice, and de-caf tea (with skim milk) in my special mug (which was painted by Best Friend as a Christmas gift about a thousand years ago)
Lunch: Homemade pita chips, salsa, garlic hummus, and a mix of tomatoes, green peppers, red peppers, and green onions. I like to put some hummus on a chip, scoop up vegetables, and the dip in salsa. It’s a messy but delicious process.
Afternoon snack: Green apple slices, four pieces of melba toast spread with two wedges of Laughing Cow Light cheese (two of my obsessions I blogged about last week)
Dinner: Quesadilas made from two small whole-wheat tortillas, chicken, corn, tomatoes, green peppers, red peppers, green onion, salsa, and 20 grams of marble cheese. Served with salsa and tbsp. sour cream. Mmmmmm.

  1. Did you always like all of those things or have you learned to like them through your weight loss challenge?

  2. Good question! I always liked the breakfast foods and dinner food, but that is DEFINITELY not a lunch I would have ever eaten before joining Weight Watchers. Now I love hummus and pita chips, and I eat peppers way more often than I did before. Oh, and the Laughing Cow cheese and melba toast are also brand-new foods for me (that I now eat just about every day).

  4. Hmmm, those are definitely the biggies. I've been eating a LOT of salsa and bell peppers, and basically every dinner I make is vaguely Mexican (so I can add salsa, haha). I think I need to start branching out more!

I’m Heather Laura Clarke. I’m journalist and blogger in beautiful Nova Scotia, I have an 8-year-old son and a 6-year-old daughter, I married my high school sweetheart, and this is the story of my handmade life.

I have depression and anxiety, and I fight like hell every day to keep it from taking over my life. Making things isn’t just a hobby — it’s part of what keeps me alive.

Whether I’m decorating a room, busting out my power tools to build furniture, getting muddy in the pottery studio, sewing clothes for my kids, or cross-stitching a swear word, I’m all about using my creativity to craft a life I love.

Wow! What an amazing night at @rona.ca for my first @craftsmanca live DIY event! There were 70+ of us DIYing our hearts out and making gorgeous wooden trays. I can’t tell you how wonderful it was to have it be so many people’s very first time using power tools, and watch them leave with huge smiles — so proud of their accomplishments! Woodworking is a such a fun hobby and it was a joy to be able to share that with you. Thank you! ❤️ It’s OK to be cranky sometimes. It’s a bad day, not a bad life. Tomorrow is a new day. This, too, shall pass. Etc. Etc. Etc. . . . This freezing cold “spring” weather is THE WORST and it’s making all of us irritable and glum. Right?!?! . . . Sewing by hand is soothing. Taking deep breaths is recommended. Knowing it will pass is wise. Going to bed early is a good idea. So good night. . . . #mentalhealth #sewing #coldestmayever #badmood #longday #goodnight Three birthday girls, one party, and NO presents! 🙌 Hop over to the blog to read about the best birthday party ever. . . . #parenting #kids #birthdays #birthdayparties #lifehack Today on the blog, I’m talking about trying rug-hooking ... and how I was promptly kicked off my high horse because I SUCKED AT IT 😱 . . . It’s true. The creative crafter who can sew clothes without patterns, refinish junk from the curb, turn old scraps into quilts, and hand-letter like nobody’s business REALLY STRUGGLED AT SOMETHING CRAFTY AND IT WAS HUMBLING. 😳 . . . #linkinbio #rughooking #hooking #hookedrugs #learning #creating I stopped abruptly at @michaelsstores when I saw a new aisle full of colourful @officialcricut vinyl, all organized in ROYGBIV order naturally. 😍 . . . I don’t own a Cricut but I had so much fun working with @atasha89 of #frozenintimedesigns making geeky wall decals for a client’s home last month. (Scroll back to see pics!) . . . Seeing sooooo many rolls of vinyl made my head explode with ideas and happiness and mostly lots of rainbow joy. . . . Reminds me of my convo with @suziconfesses on the #WellnessSimplifiedPodcast this week about unconventional self-care practices, like organizing nail polish and LEGO into rainbow order. 🌈 . . . #craftsupplies #happyplace #roygbiv #rainbow #michaels #cricut #crafter #handmade #alwayscreating #creative #creativegirl My jean jacket is basically an autobiography in pin form. . . . Swipe to see both sides! . . . #jeanjacket #pins #flare #sewing #mentalhealth #trurons #tacos #bostonterrier #babythatsthefunofme
