Rosie has been trying to nest, and trying to get the other female bourke she is in with to mate with her! She longs to be a mother and I caught her visiting the baby finch this morning.

Okay so my mom hid the candy earlier (only found out cause my dad was lookinh for it) so I haven't had any today so so far, the only things I have eaten today are a Panera Bread sandwich around like 2 (half roasted turkey apple white cheddar on cranberry walnut bread and half tuna on tomato basil. Normally I would eat a whole turkey sandwich but for some reason today I was also in the mood for tuna. Everyone else mixed it up too. Tuna had lettuce tomato and onion but I picked the onion off. Wasn't happy about the lettuce or tomato either but ate it. Turkey had arugula and like coleslaw i think), a bowl of ice cream (only bad thing I've eaten all day but it's the all natural Turkey Hill kind, vanilla and chocolate. I really wanted ice cream), and then not long ago my mom made chicken broccoli ziti. And I had about 8 baby carrots with ranch dressing before dinner. Dad and brother went out but we didn't want to. Also before that I went to the grocery store and got 2 things of baby carrots, 2 things of celery, some peanut butter, raisins, ranch dressing, a ton of apples (went a little crazy and got 7 varieties), and some snacks (more on those later). And more English Muffins cause they're buy one get TWO free through the 7th and the good Thomas brand not store brand. So that's where the carrots came from. So so far today I have eaten both the most meals in a while (usually skip breakfast cause I wake up so late and often skip dinner too cause I don't go buy something till late so then I just get like a sub between 3-5 then snack all night) and the healthiest and I must say I do feel better. Well, not entirely cause it's also the least water I've dranken. Idk why. And the house is really dry so my eyes are bugging me, super irritated, red, watery. But in terms of diet, I do feel better. But now I just got into a fight and am pretty stressed out again and want crap :( but I am going to say no and eat something else. Possibly my snacks or maybe an apple or some ants on a log. Idk. I am pretty full but I gotta eat something.

And these are the snacks. Potentially gross with no sugar or salt but healthy.

And I know that peanut butter and Hidden Valley ranch dressing aren't exactly healthy, they still have sugar, but I figure it is better than candy bars and a good first step. Although I do actually have healthy peanut butter and ranch too (the ranch is sugar free/paleo, pb all natural and no added sugars) but haven't managed to convince myself to try it yet.

I could go for some pecans myself Sour, if you don't mind sharing. I still can't find any Kerry Gold unsalted butter :mad:

That's the way I do my pecans. Dunk'em in Kerry's Gold, sprinkle Mediterranean sea salt on them then roast them in the oven, till just right! Yummmmm

We're still up in the air about what to do with that shower window :confused: One of many things we'll have to figure out as we go along.

It is a nice size yard! I'm already looking forward to spring when I have someplace to play in the dirt planting stuff!

Id put an atrium outside that window.... smallish but give privacy and make the shower kind of exotic. Stone or cement tile floor plants in pots to bring in during cold season.

@KDOGG331 , fruit and nuts are great 'snack' foods. I am a grazer in the evening, but no longer on cookies/candies/cakes/ice cream. I now grab a handful of nuts or a piece of fruit. Think I'll go and get some pecans right now.

I ended up having an apple and some of those snack cakes I bought which btw... pretty tasteless :sick but healthy at least.
