For this dinner I was inspired by some simple ingredients I happened to have on hand- capers, shrimp and scallops, and garlic! I googled those ingredients and found a recipe that I used to loosely base our meal (you can find it here).

I reduced the amount of oil and pasta and just kind of threw stuff together while mildly paying attention the recipe (I still used the same ingredients). I also added in broccoli, scallops and a ¼ cup parmesan cheese. I should mention that I am still learning how to cook and there is still a lot of trial and error but I have to say, this turned out pretty good! Yay me!

Snacks

I was so hungry this afternoon (keep in mind I am breastfeeding!) so I had some plain non fat yogurt with frozen raspberries, 2 kiwis, and a bit of wheat germ.

Then about a few hours later I was hungry again and dinner wasn’t for two hours so I had a cliff bar. So yummy!

I thought I’d post another picture of ms. Sienna from today since she really is the star of the show…

I’ll check back in a bit (when Sienna is sleeping) to answer the comments and post the dessert that I will have had!

I hope everyone’s day is going well! It seems to be going by fast- I think because I have been blogging! Sienna has been well behaved but she only had a tiny nap… so hopefully she’ll go down for another soon! I started to get hungry around 11ish so I decided it was time for lunch! I had some leftover canned salmon in the fridge so I decided to make a wrap.

I used half a can of salmon and added: a bit of light mayo, Dijon mustard, dried dill, capers, ½ a carrot, and a celery stock. I used a healthy way wrap and added some spinach before adding the salmon salad. I also had the rest of the carrot and an orange on the side… sooo good.

Note: I had to eat some of the salmon with a fork! I kind of over stuffed it!

After lunch I had some tea. I just picked up celestial seasoning’s vanilla hazelnut the other day and had yet to try it. It was pretty good! I added a bit of almond milk and raw honey.

Now I’m off to fold some laundry… fun fun!
