What a day!!!!

We had a little rain last night and pea-soup fog early this morning. I was surprised to see all of that turn into such a beautiful day! I don't even mind the grass coming up in the flower border - its' green after all!

We get our new patio poured this week - I can't wait to see the result (although, I must admit, I am a little nervous about 60,000 lbs worth of concrete truck driving through our pasture).

I'm making a yummy eggplant "noodle" lasagna (one of my favorite foods on my low carb diet) - it's pretty much like any other veggie lasagna but I use thin slices of eggplant in place of the noodles and I forgo the tomato sauce (cooked tomatoes are high in sugar). Instead, I top the finished lasagna with a sort of pico de gallo of tomatoes, basil, garlic, and a little salt. It still has loads of mozzarella, ricotta (or drained cottage cheese), parmesan, spinach, and today, mushrooms but I've somehow managed to pig out on the stuff and still lose 15% of the weight I hope to lose already (after just over 2 weeks). Yay me!

I hope Spring is springing where you are, too.
