Abs, My First Ramekin Experience, New Recipe

Thanks you guys! I love my little puppers. And yes, their weight didn't even kind of break the ice (which makes sense seeing that they're a combined 10 pounds! Little babies!). And I hear you - hopefully the airport psycho was just having a rough day - I dunno - I was just like nope, just stop talking, I can't deal with you! On another note, HAPPY FRIDAY! It feels like it's been Friday for a while... i'm actually ready to get back into the swing of things at work but it's not happening - we're even off on Monday - crazy! Backing up... Thursday was still a bit zombiesque. I slept in a bit, and got online at 8:30 to get to work. So nice to work from home again and to have the puppers with me. I got a lot done, worked through lunch then signed off at 5 p.m. That's when I hit the floor to do abs. I did the same workout as last week:
Then it was time to cook! I made the following:
  • 6 servings of brunch pizza squares
  • 6 servings of chili noodle bake
  • 6 servings of baked Italian sausage pasta
  • 4 servings of baked mini quiches new!
  • I also prepped chicken for two recipes I plan to make tonight - woo!
So what are those things in the front?! Those are the result of my first time using my new ramekins! So exciting. Here is a close up:
I'll post the recipe tomorrow -I'm SO excited! In the meantime, here is a recipe I made last week:

Q: It's Friday - what are your weekend plans? I plan to do nothing tonight. Tomorrow I have my sister's first baby shower in Decatur and then a wedding in Greenville, S.C. Sunday I plan to do some work around the house - perhaps tackling those guest room closets as that is a January 2011 to-do!

Q: Do you do ab workouts? If so, how many days per week do you do them? Right now i'm doing 2 days/week; 4 exercises/day. I'm going to do this workout for a month, and then do another in February.
