Second of all, today’s post is going to be über short, as the Monday after a long weekend is quite possibly the longest day EVER! I’d been craving Chinese food all day, so that’s just what we got for dinner. I splurged a bit and bought us Chinese carry-out! Adam got beef and broccoli, and I got shrimp and broccoli. This place has the most enormous and plentiful shrimp in their dishes! We also shared some potstickers.
Crispy, doughy, and pork-filled (thats what she said)
Shrimp and broccoli!
I indulged in a couple of the coconut flour cookies that I made last night, and a few strawberries with lowfat sour cream and brown sugar.
Lastly tonight, I’d like to direct you to my latest post on Jewish Wedding Network! Sara, the editor of the site, asked me if I would share my weight loss story, and it was posted today. Let me know what you all think!
Bed is calling my name… so I’ll catch you all mañana, but first: the camper quote of the day! “My mostest favoritest thing to dip in my bahamas is the red peppers. Then the cucumbers. Then the carrots then the yellow peppers.” It took me 10 minutes to figure out that “bahamas” was hummus.

I have to admit, I only read the beginning part of this post. Once I saw the Chinese food pics, I immediately scrolled to the bottom. It is my weakness.
Hope you’re having a good week lady!
So, hopefully, that was the most important part of the post

Potstickers are so good!
I love the camper’s quotes; they always crack me up!
Congrats on your guest post
btw, I wanted you to know, I subscribe via email and read your posts everyday! Sorry I don’t always comment, but I will make an effort to click over to your page to comment b/c I know how you feel when it seems like no one is reading! Funny how we start blogging mainly for ourselves, but when people start to read and you get a following, the insecurity comes along with it! If I lose a follower or see less people responding, I often wonder if I offended somehow! That’s the people pleaser in me ;P
Mara- thanks so much for sharing your story on Jewish Wedding Network! You totally inspired me. I dragged myself to the gym for the first time in months today!
Ok, that is the best looking shrimp and broccoli and potstickers ever. I am now craving chinese takeout but have a fridge and a menu plan all week. Thanks a lot!!! =)

I LOVE potstickers! I can’t remember the last time I had them, but not it will definitely have to be soon! Have you ever tried the frozen ones? I got some once that were amazing, but I can’t remember where I got them from!
