Lets face it...whether we are mothers or not, we all mother someone in our lives, right? My little furbaby started my day off with a big wet kiss - what more can any mother want?
I received my first "Mother-in-law" mothers day card and I thought that was so sweet. I did tell him though, in the future, he should save his money and make my daughter just put his name with hers! "Good idea" my new son-in-law said!
I know I've talked a lot about my Dad on my blog but today is about my mama. Her name is Bunny (it's really Evelyn and maybe someday I'll tell that story!) and she is the best mama a girl can have. She is always there for us...she's been on double duty this past year! She is the most selfless person, always putting others first. This is not always a good thing, but its my mom. She is loved by all....even her garbage men who actually bring the cans up her driveway after they empty them on trash day. Unbelievable! I think it has something to do with her giving them her famous 'Bunny's Sausage Bread'! It is definitely from my mom that I get my love of cooking! She is truly the 'Wind beneath my wings' and I love her more than I could ever say!
Speaking about cooking, I am frosting some Tirimisu Cupcakes and then heading into work for a few hours. No rest for the weary over here! We are than going to our friends house for dinner where I am planning on eating one of the aforementioned Tirimisu Cupcakes! Don't worry, I will plan for them in my calorie bank accordingly. I have not plugged in the recipe to my fitness pal yet and I am thinking the result will not be pretty! Oh well, its not something I do everyday so I will deal with it! (I just ran the numbers and it came out to 238 calories per serving....not as bad as I thought!)
I know we are having some kind of roast chicken for dinner tonight so I will just plan my breakfast and lunch accordingly. I am still sticking to a 1200 calorie a day and I will not be going to the gym today. I didn't go yesterday either but I went for a 5 mile walk on the beach with two of my girlfriends. I will be back at the gym tomorrow at 6 a.m. for my training session.
I am actually at work now and forgot to take a picture of my cupcakes! They actually look fantastic so I will take a pic later and post it when I can!
Have a great Mother's Day everyone!

Happy Mother's Day Jacquie. Hope it is great for you!
No I wasn't wearing a helmet -- I used to wear one all the time and don't know why I stopped. I braked too hard and fell off and the bike fell on my head - hence the cut. Ouchie! I'm wearing one now that's for sure.
You are right. I am thankful to have all my family healthy and I know this will work out the way it sahould and for a reason. Thanks
I've been such a bad blogger, but wanted to stop by and say hello. Really looking forward to seeing everyone again in Chicago.
