Life: weekly recap

• A good week at work, I was very productive because I kept coffees/lunches at the minimum. So more time to work! 😉
• Saturday: I went to do manicure/pedicure, the full set! It felt so good. And that, I went to do groceries and I went to four stores (Whole Food, Trader Joe’s, H mart and Great Wall). I guess I could squeeze in 1-2 stores but as doing groceries is a therapy for me, so I didn’t mind going to each of them to get exactly what I neede.

Once the joy of cooking is back, I need more groceries to play with. For these for a single pregnant woman! 🙂

got three types of korean salads: seaweed, radish and kimchi.

spent the afternoon napping and reading. I’m reading more than ever! In average 1-2 books per week! 😯 My favorite bobbie nowadays! 🙂

• Sunday: another stay-in day and did a lot of cooking. I’ve been wanting to make these two recipes for a while, I finally did! 🙂

I made high protein brownie adapted from this recipe from Running to the Kitchen

• 1 cup grounded oat
• 1/4 cup coconut flour
• 2 scoops vanilla pea and soy protein powder
• 1/4 cup unsweetened dark cocoa powder
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1/4 teaspoon salt
• 1 egg
• 2 tbsp egg white liquid
• 1/4 cup NuNaturals stevia baking blend
• 1/2 cup plain greek yogurt
• 1-1/4 cup almond milk
• 1/4 cup chopped walnut

Mix dry and wet ingredients separately and bake at 350F for 25 min.

Will have it as snack and maybe parfait?

I also made Emily’s broccoli “cheese” pasta bake 

I add 1/4 cup of parmesan cheese as topping before baking it

YUM YUM~~~

The afternoon involved more reading. And look what I saw in our backyard?

Q: What’s your favorite pasta dish?
