Merry Christmas! Happy Holidays! Hope you all are having a fantastic week!
(I REALLY got the Christmas cheer going on after my giant cuppa coffee this mornin’)
Anywayyy, another WIAW here:
As usual hosted by Jenn at Peas and Crayons.
I actually did a fantastic job of eating healthy the whole week before Christmas…. The weekend and Christmas Eve/day is a whole other story, but whatevs.
Healthy eats this week:


Look at all those veggies! *pats self on back*
Lots o’ two ingredient pancakes.

Even gettin’ festive with ‘em.

If you look through my pictures, it looks like I ate healthy the whole week, because I stopped taking food pictures once the good stuff started coming out. Cupcakes? Cookies? Alllll shoved in my mouth before I even thought to take pictures. I’m sure you all have good food overload this week anyway!
I’ll do a full Christmas recap tomorrow if I get a chance, or later in the week, but basically it was a lot of snuggling:

(It’s amazing how perfectly my sister and I fit on a recliner made for one person..)
This lil lump:

I thought it was the funniest thing EVER to take some of his kibbles and create a little path with them (Hansel and Gretel breadcrumb style) and watch him follow the path:

Not sure why, but that made me laugh SO hard. I think it reminded me of that scene in Monsters INC where they make a path of cheerios for Boo to follow.
Besides snuggling, eating, and making fun of my dog there was a lot of gift giving and receiving! Again, I’ll do a full recap later, but can you guess what I got in my stocking?

(It’s makeup. Who likes guessing anyway?)
Hope everyone had a fantastic Christmas this year!

Ah I was on the same path of eating healthfully right before the holidays too. Oh well, at least we enjoyed ourselves
Totally! Plus eating healthy the week before is more than more people can say
I need to make it a goal to be able to cook my eggs like that- I’m always so jealous of yours haha. Glad you had a great Christmas!
hahaha thanks! I think the trick is a small banana and a big egg and reallllly smashing it up and using a non-stick skillet. Theres a ton of tips on carrots n’ cake too!
sprinkles on anything is a total win for me. Looks like a great day!
totes
You look so pretty in that pic. Love the lippy.
Thanks! I never wear lip gloss so I feel super weird, but I like how it looks
oo la la! Lovely picture–isn’t new makeup fun?!?
thanks! hahaha i lovvveee new makeup. I always look all fancy for like a week after I get new makeup to play with.
Glad you had a nice Christmas! I stopped taking pics when the good stuff came out too… it happens
!
haha I’m glad it’s not just me
you look goooorgeous, love the makeup!!
I have gained some seeerious holiday weight. haha, it’s so hard to get back on the healthy bandwagon!!
uhg sammmmeee. I tried to start over today and then ended up eating cookies… oh well! Less junk than yesterday and I’ll do better tomorrow too!
You look gorgeous! Great job on the veggies & getting in some healthy eats before Christmas. I’d probably be the same w/the sweets… inhale them before I could photograph them. LOL
thanks girl! Just gotta get back on track now
I make a 2 ingredient pancake TOO!!! Mine includes eggs and butternut squash (or pumpkin if you’re feeling lazy and not in the mood to peel, chop and ROAST the damn butternut squash!) – so freaking delicious and EASY!
oooh, I’ve only made it with eggs and bananas. I need to try yours!!
Looks like it was a fabulous day! Good for you eating so healthy the week before Christmas. The cupcakes/desserts are one of the best parts of the holiday so I’m glad you were able to enjoy them
ooooh, i enjoyed them
hahaha. Time to go back to healthy eating!
Fabulous day you had!
Love the look of your pancakes! I love pancakes! Mmmm Mmmm!
saaame here
bahaha i can so relate to the non-existant dessert pictures. Most of mine are taken of a different cookie/bar after I ate one… what do ya do?
Glad you’re having a good holiday!
hahaha I didn’t even do that, I just shoveled it all into my mouth
. You too!
Hahah I love making dog food trails for my puppy, too! I also like to play “hockey” with her where I scoot a kibble toward her and she has to block it so I don’t get a “goal”. I’m a five year old at heart, plus it’s just hilarious!
hahahaha I love it! I’ll have to try kibble hockey.
LOL you are so funny with your dog. I am the same way with healthy eating…tons of photos of my healthy food…none whatsoever of my indulgences
whatever, it’s the holidays!
I seriously laughed harder at that than I’ve laughed in years. Lmao, it wasn’t even that funny, but I was literally crying from laughing so hard. & I knoooooww I just stuff the indulgences right into my face. No time for pictures. Must consume quickly.
“If you look through my pictures, it looks like I ate healthy the whole week, because I stopped taking food pictures once the good stuff started coming out. Cupcakes? Cookies? Alllll shoved in my mouth before I even thought to take pictures.”
HAHA – yes, this, exactly!!!!
ps – You look gorgeous!!!
Thanks Alex!!
