Oh Hi!!

Thinking about coming back....

So many wonderful things happening (no kids yet, hope soon) so why not document it?!

Oh and my BFF Suz had moved to Boston so there HAS to be material there!

Dipping my toe in, water is pretty warm!

Lunch Prep

I'm back on this allergy diet and this time they have added both turkey and chicken, so if you're keeping track (eggs, wheat, soy, milk, all nuts, shell fish, beef, and corn, and now chicken and turkey).

Pretty sure that is about 99% of all food out there, so it's been a very long last month and I have until Mid-April. SO with that all being said, I have to be crafty with what I eat, and that means prep, prep, prep.

I've tested out a few different versions of the same things, and I have become OBSESSED with lettuce wraps, if it can be put in a wrap and isn't on the above list I'm all over it! So given tuna fish is a) one thing I can have as a protein b) lower in calories and c) i actually really like it. So I decided to put my own twist on tuna salad.

Below is three cans of albacore tuna, about 50 dashes of hot sauce (i put that bleep on everything) and chopped celery. So if you think about it it's like having a buffalo chicken wing. Right?

I also made a pot of chili, it's been my new thing, trying to prefect the perfect chili, this time I have to use ground pork, it's pretty good if I do say so myself! Again tons of hot sauce is key along with red pepper flakes.

I have been living off of fruit, veggies and a ton of potatoes (chips). OH and I am able to have chocolate chips, so yeah, those by the handfuls!

ANY tips would be more than welcome.

Tumblr

My blogging bestie Suz has been trying to get me to set up a Tumblr account for YEARS, she's kept selling it as more than twitter but not as much commitment as a blog.

Though I always believed her, I never gave it much of a thought, until I found the app and how super easy it is to update on my iPhone. That was just the final pitch I needed to join!

So friends I now have ANOTHER social media site to update/talk about/become obsess with. I'm super excited as I'll use it for a place to document all of the random pictures I take throughout the day. No wonder my per minute miles aren't higher, I tend to stop mid run to take a picture of something that I think is appropriate for "twitter/blog and now tumblr"!

Giddy up!

Who doesn't HEART Lilly!

I tried this little gem on when we were on vacation last month, it was on sale but sadly still way too much, so I've decided I AM going to track this puppy down on line at an even better price! I mean I do NEED a new dress for the weddings we have this summer!

Which makes me wonder, can you really wear a long dress to a summer wedding?

Oh HI there

Yeah, this whole blogging thing has really gotten away from me.

I guess when you spend a large chuck of your life working the blog doesn't get the TLC I would like to give to it. So instead of being down on myself about it i'm going to say that I've captured everything I've wanted on twitter.

Blogging into 2011

Well before the new year I said, I will blog more in 2011. Why not?!

So here I am on January 17th, figuring out what the heck to blog about. I could go on about the holidays, but I'm kind of over the holidays.

One fun fact, one year ago today I was on my first trip to LA. We got drinks at The Beverly Hilton and saw the ballroom where the Golden Globes were held the night before. It poured rain for days and days, I fell in love with LA and visited 6 more times in the first and second quarter.

Speaking of Golden Globes, last night was a little boring. Though I also was watching after a HORRIBLE Pat's loss. (I'm not ready to get into that right now) I'm bummed Jeremy Renner didn't win for The Town. He was AWESOME in that movie, but I guess losing to a boxing movie in Lowell wasn't a bad trade off.

Really I got nothing.

Baby steps...

Kimba's 6th Annual Christmas Card Swap

It's that time of year again!!!

It has always been fun to receive Holiday cards from my bloggers throughout the year! Fun to see how the littles ones have grown or how there is now a boyfriend/husband or furbaby attached to the card!

I will again be adding my fave bloggers to my Christmas Card list! If you would like to swap please send me an email (kimbakimba at gmail.com) with your full name and address, also please include your "blog name"! (Even if we've swamped in the past I would appreciate if you would send me your address, I for some reason can't find my file from the years past.)

Can't wait to swap with my new and old blogging buddies!

Happy Holidays!!!!!!

xoxo
