Eagle Eggs

Juding by the number of viewers at any given time, I am not the only one fascinated by the live eagle cam provided by the Decorah Raptor Resource Project. Check it out soon- the eggs are due to hatch anytime from today to Friday!

Slowly but Surely

I'm 3/4 of the way done with #7 on my 30 Before 30 List, only 1 week left of vegetarianism!

Also, with a last minute entry in a 5K this weekend #8 will be crossed off, too!

It's easy being vegetarian when you get shrimp this big & delish! Enjoyed at Daniel Arthur's last Friday night on a dinner date with Mom & Dad

#7 = 1/4 complete

One week of vegetarianism down, 3 to go! I may make it all the way to Easter, just cause. We'll see how it goes!

Here's a snapshot of what I've been eating: shrimp lettuce wraps, halibut tacos with avocado, crispy thin crust veggie pizza, whole wheat pasta with veggie marinara, lots of eggs, greek yogurt with granola & fruit, cheese & crackers, etc.

Mike has been a good sport so far so he got his own crock pot full of corned beef & veggies yesterday.
