Sharing the clouds

Some pretty cool clouds tonight as I was driving in to and out of town. 
Body is for some reason acting up on me right now. 
So really starting to wonder what is even in that gluten free stuff as I've been off all of that for so long.
Scalp is also super itchy (psoriasis)
Sore hands. First time I've ever felt like I can really hold my scissors properly. Thank goodness for my super scissors with movable thumb :)
So started talking Glutamine today. Lets see what that will do for me :) 

My dad came today with my little sister Nathalie. To babysit Jonas while I go to work tomorrow. Good to have them here. Had meatballs and gravy ( they actually ate the avocado/zucchini gravy) broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. And gluten free spaghetti for them. Nathalie even went back for seconds. And cleaned her plate again. Amazing!


Good Night to you all :)





Kale chips, morning project

Kale is hard to get here I find. 
So finally found it and wanted to try to make kale chips
Turned out nice and crispy, but not quite sure about the taste. They taste good but a bit strong. 
Anyways mission completed, was not to hard to make. Just wash good. Toss in olive oil with what ever spices you want. I made one taco and one Cajun
Bake on 175c till they start getting a bit of a brown color. 



Baked bacon


So Carmen posted these egg/bacon muffins. Bacon in muffin trays with egg in it.
I didn't have muffin trays so I just did it in a bread tray. It worked out great and Jonas loved it. Super fast and easy. And way less messy that making eggs and bacon in pans ;) 




Add a little bit of veggies or for Jonas I added some cheese :) 
Happy breakfast

Stronger arms



Last kettlebell before Guðrún goes away for her holiday. But it looks like the 5 of us that are there are gonna keep meeting up and still train together :)
That's awesome

Today Jonas had to come with me to the gym too
He had a little play time before the class started 


Children and going paleo/glutenfree

So to try to explain to a 3 year old why we don't want him to eat certain things, it is very hard.
Jonas asks if everything has gluten in it.
He asks -Is that good for my body?
Or says -Oh, thats not good for my body, but it tastes good.

So yesterday after Eric went back to Sweden, Jonas stayed a couple of hours with me at work.
Busy day as one girl at work got sick, but nothing crazy. But just did not feel like cooking for a long time, and maybe even fighting Jonas a bit about eating.
I decided to let him choose what he wants for dinner. He says spaghetti, because thats Ryans favourite food.

(Jonas and Ryan at Ryan's school picnic after the HoneyBee farm)



So I say ok, I think we have gluten free spaghetti at home.
He looks at me with his grumpy face.

-Mommy I want gluten, I like gluten!

So we almost had a little fight at the store until I just said fine I'll make you gluten spaghetti.
When we got home and I was cooking
(Gluten free spaghetti, with ground turkey, fresh tomatoes, peppers, onions and tomato sauce)
Jonas keeps asking me to make sure this is pasta with gluten.
Then all of the sudden he says, but mommy then I will have flat poo (thats what he calls his poop after eating crap food, he will also call it gluten poo )
-I wanted it gluten free mommy.


So that was a small win for me.
He is getting more aware of how he is feeling too, altho he will eat it if it's given to him.


PS: Mommy how ever, has done noting different,  except  eating that gluten free pasta, and gluten free bread with him this morning for breakfast.
But my joints are in pain, typing is ok, but I was trying to study and make notes. Yeah holding the PEN, not working!!!!
Yes I had a hard kettlebell class, but that never bothers me!
So I dunno about those supplement stuff, as i have not had that in MONTHS!!??


Now to study glutamine!

Looking out my new bedroom windows



I think we have a pretty wicked view!!
This weekend Eric and my grandpa got the windows put in. Still some work to do but at least. Have windows :)
Lived the past months with styrofoam boards on our windows, this is better

Busy day at work today, lots of drop in now that's its holidays in Norway.
Still freezing cold here, but can't do anything about that.

Had an other great kettlebell class tonight.
Second last one now before Gudrun goes away for a month, then I gotta train by my self
We booked a trip to Iceland today. YAY! Can't wait to go!

Came home to delicious 'Kjøttsuppe' 
Norwegian soup, boiled on salted meat, add veggies and more meats. Eric had put in left over lamb and chicken.
The broth he had boiled up on the chicken we ate the other day:)

Coconut/chocolate goodies




Melt butter and coconut oil
Add shredded coconut 
Couple of drops of stevia
Two scoops of cocoa

Put a little in ice cube trays, then put in some nuts, some chocolate, dried fruit, some peanut butter and honey is also good.
Of course I put one ingredient in each piece, then some more of the coconut on top again. 
Put in the freezer to "cook"
Very good
