So at the halfway mark I stopped by the shore at the river and they had a little play in the sand with the jellyfish that were washed up. Then we had morning tea and we were off again.
You could not have stopped my older son who is 3 from grinning when I asked him to take my photo so I could share our gorgeous sunny day and the lovely river views. He did his best and took 2 okay photos which I think shows the river, gorgeous day and a little bit of Me!
Now we are home I have finally gotten around to making that hummus I have been meaning to do for the last 10 years! The last time I made it I blew up the motor in my food processor heehee Luckily that did not happen this time and it tastes divine!
I took a photo of my lunch to share with you all. I am dribbling just thinking about it only I am waiting till my boys take their daytime nap before I jump into it. That way I can enjoy it rather than having to inhale it in-between the growling at the children and them scabbing bits of my lunch :)
Hummus Recipe
- 400g can chickpeas, drained & rinsed
- 3 garlic cloves chopped or grated
- 80ml olive oil
- 2 tbs tahini paste
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- Juice of 1 lemon
- Small amount of water
Blend all the ingredients until smooth and add enough water to make a dip consistency. Add salt and pepper if required and serve with a sprinkle of mild paprika on top.
Eat your Hummus with water crackers, vegetable fingers, or toasted wholemeal pita bread for a more filling meal. Store it in the fridge in a tupperware container until your ready to eat it and share with your friends.
So tonight is weight watchers weigh in night and I am kind of dreading it because I did have a naughty eating week this week. Well not too terrible but it could have been much better. I planned on having sushi for lunch yesterday but they were closed so I skipped across the road to Red Rooster and grabbed a chicken roll & chips :( And I ate all of it too as I was super hungry. Now thats pretty bad!
I am back on track again today and will let you all know how I fair after tonights weigh in.
Remember your incidental exercise!
:-) Have a great day
