Good morning, Friends! I'm a little late posting this blog. Seems there's never enough hours in a day to get things done.
I've had exactly 20 pounds to lose...forever. The old, tired locarb method is just that...tired and unexciting. I was on locarb...carnivore...for over a month and the scale never really reflected any weight loss. So... I've jazzed it up a bit. First thing I did was purchase an air fryer. Best thing I ever did! Our daughter Crystal has one and loves it. It's a Cosori Clear Blaze 6.5qt... Amazon.
It whipped out the whole chicken below...4 1/2 lb...in 50 minutes! Juicy and tender and fully cooked! If I'd done it in my oven, it would have taken upwards of two hours...to be fully cooked down to the bone at 350 degrees.
I am now down 5 1/2 pounds! I'm so excited...and I also get in my 3-5000 steps every day.
That's not burn spots you see...There's a little brown sugar in the seasoning and sugar always cooks fast. It just tasted crispy and yummy!
I also made thighs...juicy!!
And who is this little dare devil? Sloane is practicing her high wire act...lol
She also likes Wolverine...
I drink lots of water every day. I also add in some lemon for flavor. It also had become boring! So... I bought a Soda Machine (The Terra model) to kick my boring water, up a notch. Talk about a game changer! Changes your flat water to sparkling water! I now drink more water because of the change. Got it at Walmart for about $89 (also added an extra cylinder of Co2...)
Co2 is what makes the water fizzy. I'm waiting to see how many bottles of water it makes. It says 60L but people pump more or less. I usually give it 6 pumps. A cylinder came with the machine...I just bought an extra. About $25 but the price varies from store to store.
Our high school buddy, Henry, came for a visit...this time he wanted to teach us how to play a game called Rummicube? I guess it was alright...not like my favorite game of Spades...but Larry loved it...he's a numbers guy, anyway. Me? I'd had enough of numbers counting, after working 28 years in accounting. So, I left them to it...
Intense...
I ordered this lace tablecloth from Amazon. I love the antique look. Reminds me of my grandmother's house. It matches my placemats perfectly.
And Ann strikes again!! Lol! This looks super complicated! It even has an egg...precious! Lots of little do-dads! Thank you, Ann! You are so talented!
Well, I suppose I'll leave you here...I have catching up on your blogs to do! So... Stay safe...and warm or cool, wherever you are. Until next time...Happy Easter!
