This morning we woke up to 4-5 inches of snow! I was hoping that Spring was here and that Winter was over, but apparently not yet.
Due to this snowy day and to the fact that it's Saturday, I have not even left the house yet! We started a fire but unfortunately the wood we have does NOT like to burn no matter what we do so it was short lived.
I felt like cooking and would have liked to have cooked or baked a lot today, but I did make Crustless Healthy Mini Quiches. I got the recipe out of the latest issue of Clean Eating magazine, but had to adapt it because I didn't think ahead. We had just enough greek yogurt left to start a new batch, so I started making that before the quiches only to realize this recipe called for greek yogurt (I had forgotten and wasn't thinking straight) and of course it wouldn't be done in time ... therefore, I had to do without. (In case you missed my recent blog "How to Make Greek Yogurt", check it out).
But, they still tasted great (though I'm quite sure they would have been even better with the yogurt)! Of course I couldn't do without a green monster today since trying one yesterday for the first time. (It had a half a banana, spinach, and almond milk in it and was very tasty!)Lunch was a spinach salad (I've had a lot of spinach today) with a bunch of yummy veggies and seasonings in it. The salad was followed by a big, juicy grape fruit. Erik and I are off to actually DO something now. Tonight is date night and we're going to cook a nice dinner together, followed by ice cream and a movie! : )
Lots of snow here too :-(

Can't believe you've got snow. Bere in Yorkshire (UK) it's starting to feel warmer, spring is on it's way.
