Tackling Tuesday

Some of the things I tackled on Tuesday include:

1. Laundry.  I do this every day.   Nothing special about Tuesday.

2. An edamame salad with my 1 tomato a day habit on top.  And that particular vine-ripe tomato was perfect.  It almost tasted like summer and tomato season.

3. A 2 mile run outside while pushing Skylar in the jogging stroller.  It’s windy and chilly today.  Darn.

4. 20 Minutes of at-home yoga + lifting moves

5. Lots of emails, phone calls, and busy work.   And I still have to go to my paid job yet today.

6. I tackled making one of these for Skylar.  Nothing too hard to tackle here.  They take 3 minutes.

From my last post for Mango Balsamic Rice, Beans, & Mixed Vegetables, I was happy to hear what your favorite one pot meals are.  Gotta love anything that’s one pot and if it’s ready in 20 minutes or less, even better!

And thanks for letting me know your stance on leftovers.  Friend or foe.   Most of you are friends with leftovers.  I am.  Such a time saver!

7. For dessert, I’d like to tackle one of these Vegan Maple Nut Chocolate Oaties

Questions:

1. What did you tackle today?

2. Do you like feeling productive?

I know I do!

I am a bit “addicted” to being productive, staying busy, and keeping on track and just getting things done.  But it’s just the way life is and so I roll with it.   It’s a great feeling for me to cross things off my to-do list.   Even if that list is all in my head.

  1. I just want to tell you that I’m new to blogging and really liked this web page. More than likely I’m likely to bookmark your blog . You certainly come with perfect well written articles. Thanks a bunch for sharing with us your blog site.

  2. Wow, busy day! I usually tackle my laundry on the weekend – not fun, but that’s when I have time.

    1. Yesterday I tackled work, dinner, a workout, kitchen cleaning and lots ot stupid little chores.
    2. Yes, especially when it’s saving me hassle down the road.

  3. The washer and dryer caught my eye – I have the exact same set, and visit it daily as well : )

    I don’t comment much, but just wanted to say how much I appreciate your blog!! I’ve been reading for over a year, and have decided to finally eliminate processed foods from my house (I’ve been raw vegan for 1 1/2 yrs, but have been lazy keeping the family healthy. As recently as a week ago I bought Apple Jacks (eeeek!) That is ending!)

    All your efforts are so appreciated! I know blogging is not easy. Your site is a regular reference for me these days. My 12 yo son has been making the micro banana cakes for days (except we use sucanat). He loves them! I also made a stash of the no bake granola bars for week 1 of our transition. Anyway, just wanted to let you know how useful your recipes are!!

    1. Thanks for LMK that you make my recipes, reference my site…and that you realized blogging takes work. Thank you for reading and being along with me for this journey, Pam! :)

  4. ahh you are making me hungryy! and i just snacked….
    haha
    hmm i did not tackle anything today.. unless you count my lazy workout?

  5. Who else would open their blog post with a shot of their laundry appliances? Keep on keeping it real!

    Today I tackled: paid job; paperwork for taxes; preparing home made gluten-free biscuits; dishes; laundry; brisk walk outside in the cold (-28C with wind chill); and catching up on some quality time with my hubby

    Feeling productive and crossing things off my to-do list help make the day seem better some how. Although if I run out of things on my “to-do” list, then I still find things to do :)
