Snarky Senoritas #8
 

Whoohoo!

Yippee! :)

Today is a biking with my husband day, so we'll do about 12 miles probably, I should also try and mow the front lawn (don't know if that will happen it is so brutally hot). This weekend is all about studying for me. I can't wait to be done with midterms next week.

I'm going to make the turnip fries for lunch I think. Friday night is, as always, veg sushi night, so I'm looking forward to that!

I busted through to the 220's. First time I can recall in 16 years. I can't get the I'm so excited song out of my head.

That's just so AWESOME!!!!! Congrats Billie, I'm so excited for you! I just can't hide it!

OK, I like turnips. I diced them, sprayed them lightly, roasted with onion salt and black pepper. Pretty tasty. I give them a solid B. But Kale was an A.

I almost bought kale today. I forgot to look at the first store and the stuff at the second store didn't look the freshest. I will try it your way Jo. I didn't get any new foods for this week though. :(

Turnip Fries - Yum! :drool:

I used the same spices used here for the Yam Fries. I peeled and cut the turnips as close to the shape of fries. Then mixed all the spices. I also added couple extra spices - cayenne and garlic powder. Roasted at 400 deg for about 20 minutes.

I'm not a fan of turnips but this way was definitely good.

Edit: I also added 1/4 tsp of salt to the turnip fries.

Turnips - Cooked

Fine. I'll try them again.

Oooo that picture of the turnip fries is luscious. Lots of spices is definitely nom nom nom!

This is midterm week, I wish I could just hurry up and be done. Plus I have a gyn appt on Friday, yee haw.

I'm craving Indian food, I gotta see what's in my freezer and build my meals from that. Maybe some nice channa masala!

I'm confident you will do great Jo.

I am on cloud nine :cloud9: right now. I just got back from running. I did 1.13 miles nonstop in 12:45 for a pace of 11:17 :) I am beyond happy.

I roasted a few radishes tonight. I think with a tad more seasoning they would have been okay. I think I could actually enjoy them if they were mixed with a few other root veggies.

Tomorrow I think I'm gonna make some won ton crisps.

WAY TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!! That is just wonderful, every day is a new milestone for you, how fantastic is that!!! :carrot:

I need to eat up all my radishes before they go bad, I'm going to try Jamie's recipe.
