This morning when I started my day I read a quote online that I decided would be my mantra for the day…
“Every day may not be a good one, but there’s something good in every day.”
I especially remembered that quote on my 1.5 hour commute into Cleveland in the pouring rain through 10 zillion accidents. Why do people drive like assholes when there is rain/snow/ice on the road? I drove nice and slow the whole way while numerous people beeped/flipped me off/tried to run me off the road:(!
But I remembered…
“Every day may not be a good one, but there’s something good in every day.”
When I finally got downtown the rain stopped and the sun came out and the ended up being quite beautiful:)! Since my work day started at 5am this morning due to a health screening I wrapped things up around 2pm and headed back home. I cleaned the house, did a ton of laundry and then starting planning a delicious dinner for Mike and I!
I have been SO hungry for Mexican food and cornbread so I hit the recipe websites to look for a delicious EASY recipe. And boy did I find a hit!
Let me first confess that, that is not my picture we gobbled it up to quickly to take a pic! So tonight for dinner we had Quick Cheesy Chicken Enchiladas. This recipe ROCKS and is so easy! I made the recipe healthier by using fat free cream of chicken soup, reduced fat mexican shredded cheese, and low carb tortilla shells. I also cut the recipe in half since it was for just Mike and I. But it was FILLING! As a side I made a special corn bread treat that Mike and I LOVE but never ever get.
If you have never had the pleasure of sweet corn cake do yourself a favor and TRY some, OMG it’s the bomb.com! I used light butter and only used half of what the package calls for. All in all tonights dinner was a grand slam, Mike and I both loved it and were stuffed!
After we cleaned up dinner together we decided to head to the metro park and go for a hike/walk. We did a new trail along with the regular trail we hike and ended up doing 3.25 miles total. It was beautiful night and we both agreed it felt nice to walk off our dinner!
However your day was today remember…
“Every day may not be a good one, but there’s something good in every day.”
Things that made my day good were… surviving morning rush hour, the sun coming out, cooking a delicious dinner, spending time laughing and talking with my husband, hiking and enjoying the great outdoors!
