Squish Squash

One of my new favorite meals... Spaghetti squash!

It is so yummy, so healthy and so easy to make. I just poke holes all over the squash then steam it by throwing it in the microwave, 10-15 min depending on the size of the squash. Water will escape out the holes, let it sit for 3-5 min then cut in half. Take a spoon to scoop out the guts(seeds and stuff) then scrape the inside with a fork and ta da you have noodles!

I have been eating it with butter, lemon pepper and parmesan cheese and a lil bit of spaghetti sauce. It is also good minus the spaghetti sauce. Or if you are in the mood for something sweet a lil butter, brown sugar and cinnamon make a real tasty treat! Try it!

If you have other ways of eating this amazing squash let me know!

long day... with 4 really long hours

Lilly came home around 4pm. The surgery went well and the doc is hopeful for clear margins. Biopsy results come back next week and then she gets her stitches out in 2 weeks. She got her teeth cleaned too and then he also found another lil spot that he cut out so she is very sore.

She wanted nothing to do with me when I brought her home it was so sad it broke my heart...

She was so sleepy and still drugged she was fighting it bad but. 4 long hours later and 1 scrambled egg dinner she was fast asleep in my lap. She loves me again and can't get enough of me :)

We have been just taking it easy and keeping her quiet. Which is easier said then done she's a lil rock*

Thanks for all the well wishes and positive thoughts! Xo
