So, way back on Tuesday... I closed out my Thirty-One open house. Which meant I needed to draw names for my giveaways! Based on the excellent numbers at my open house I was able to give away 2 half price items, an Organizing Utility Tote and $50 in free product! I went through all of the considerations I'd set up and then put everyone's "tickets" in a bowl, Anne was kind enough to draw the winning names. Congrats to Angela, Robyn, Kelli & Kathy!
We still hadn't had time to restock the fridge after our weekend away so Anne & I decided to head to Gary's for lunch. I had a ham, egg & cheese croissant with home fries (523 calories).
I was on my own for the gym since it was Mandy's boyfriend's birthday. The only class I can really tolerate on my own is Spin so that's what I did. I find it amusing that I'm such a hot mess at the end of that class. I'm usually dripping and red faced and half dead...
As soon as I walked in the door I got started on my Pistachio Crusted Pork Chops (310 calories). Joe couldn't find shelled pistachios at the grocery store so first I took care of that task. For future reference, shelling a 1/2 cup of pistachios is a pain in the ass. I was also supposed to make Sauteed Collard Greens with Bacon but after all the work with the pork I wasn't feeling trying another new dish and just steamed up some spinach instead. It was a lot of work and I need to figure out how to make the topping less clumpy next time but it was delicious! Joe kept saying, this is really good! He even went back for a second chop.
I did well on my calories!
And after a late night Jack chasing session next door I managed to get my steps as well, 10,084!
Those pork chops sound delicious! And I agree. I shelled some pistachios last week so I could measure them before eating them. I was shooting for 1/2 cup. Ended up having 1/4 cup. And mine were chili lime roasted so my fingers were covered too. LoL!
