These aren’t very pretty. But, holy crap were they delicious! Mediterranean seasoned chickens on the Pellet grill for 3 hours. I can’t take any credit for them though; hubby cooked them. There’s not much I love more than a great meal that I didn’t have to cook!

Nice workouts. Actually that chicken looks fantastic! Full of flavour I bet! It’s nice when the hubby’s cook, even better when they do it well!

When Hubby & I workout together, we aren’t ones to BS and chat other than some motivational sh!t talking. The other day, after a set, hubby told me I should “mtry” (pun on mTor activation) and I couldn’t stop laughing! Maybe you had to be there… =)~

Total blonde moment on the Arnold Press. Misread my log, thinking I used 50lb dbs last session. When in reality, 50lbs was total weight. So, today, when I was doing my warm-up sets with 30’s and 40’s, I was thinking: “Damn! How the hell did I use 50’s last time?” ( I didn’t! I used 25’s!)

Hubby cooked this pork shoulder for 10 hours on the pellet grill:

So, of course, Taco Tuesday was shredded pork tacos!
(topped with avocado, cilantro, green onion, non fat Greek yogurt & lime juice)

I posted these before. But, they are finally available nationwide in some Walmart stores: Clio Greek Yogurt Bars. I store them in the freezer and then let temper for a few minutes on the counter before eating. Taste & texture of them is chocolate covered cheesecake!

710 mins? :joy::muscle:. Felt like it but slightly less ;). :kissing_heart:

Do you just eat artichokes plain? In Santa Cruz, we dipped the in butter, or better yet, Hollandaise.

Doesn’t fit my macros.

I eat them plain sometimes. But, more often I’ll use a tablespoon of light mayo. Just a tiny tab on each bite makes all the difference for me.

I fixed it smarty pants. thanks! :wink:

I don’t have any new food pics on my phone. So, I’ll post a proud mama pic. [And i’m sure his papa is proud too. @conigs333 =) ]

Our son’s (he’s 9) baseball season has ended and I couldn’t be more proud of him. He went from being really upset with me for signing him up for baseball again (because his heart belongs to hockey) to being one of the better players on the team and really learning to enjoy the sport.

Isn’t it the most wonderful feeling to feel pride in your children?
