Good 41º drizzling morning.

Looks like even California will be getting some wet stuff today!

The snow yesterday was on the ground til about afternoon. It started sprinkling and most disappeared. The snow did slide off the roof... we ended up getting another 1" of rain!

Thanks Ellen (Naugle)  for sharing!!! Sooooo funny!!!!

 

Breakfast yesterday was a couple eggs cooked in my

Egg-Tastic with some of that creamy mayonnaisey/mustardy dressing I made for the broccoli slaw stirred in.... First I put some water in a bowl, added in the broccoli/snap peas, carrots and heated covered with a paper towel on high in the microwave for 3 minutes. Then into the microwave went the eggs. I added mozzarella cheese to both veggies and eggs after cooking and a drizzle of that dressing. OMGOOOOOOD!!

Yesterday was my back therapy with Stacy. She's really made an improvement with the pain! Then a quick stop at the market.

 

Later it was phone conversations with pals, a wrap for dinner, chair, wine, and TV.

The wraps I bought yesterday are a whole lot better for you than the regular ones. These are only 100 calories. The regular wraps are 250 calories! Yes!! So I made a very simple wrap.....

I put on some shredded mozzarella cheese, some of the broccoli slaw (from my blog on January 14th), and some canned salmon.

Nothing fancy, just GOOD!!!!

 

All I know. Nuff said. Happy Saturday. Ciao.

National Do Nothing Day

Today is quite simply.... a day for nothing.

 

This day is an "un-event". The expectation is that we do not create or otherwise promote this day. In other words, we do nothing. And, to say anything more would contradict the purpose of this day.

Celebrate this day by doing....nothing. Of course, that assumes that doing nothing is okay with your boss.

 

Or.... you could go to Nothing! Nothing Arizona!!! Really.
