It's raining....Let's burn something

I'm talking about candles you pyromaniacs! :-) Please don't burn any food! It's wasteful and toxic to your lungs. But feel free to burn some non-sooty candles. And by some I mean at least 10 because today it's raining and snowing. Brown Rice Noodles w/ Tomatoes spinach and nooch sauce  Did you know Trader Joe's has loads of veg and gluten free foods? Their Brown Rice pasta is really tasty (when cooked properly..AKA not too long..oops). And the texture makes it a great carrier for creamy sauces. Sometimes dairy free sauces don't adhere to pastas, but not so with brown rice pasta.

Looking at the date I see it has been approximately 3 months since I wrote my first entry. Good news: things have been going well in the weight loss department. Otherwise it's been a whirlwind of happenings. With the surgeries and deaths and moving and learning languages I have been a very busy girl. But through prayer I have been able to maintain my weight loss goals. I haven't done the official measurements yet, but I have managed to lose about 4 inches from my waist, which as anyone who knows me knows is my mortal enemy. The most popular question: How did you do it? (Actually it usually goes more like: "Girl you gettin so skinny? What you doing to lose all that weight?")
