It’s the Small Things
13October 30, 2011 by Katie
Hey everyone!
Sorry for the lack of posting today, but… It’s my birthday so I’m taking a break! I awoke this morning to a beautiful sunrise!
You are correct: I couldn’t even manage to sleep in on my birthday! I promise, I tried! Another special birthday thing: the pretty flowers I got at Trader Joe’s!
Only $2.99!!! I love Trader Joes…
Another goodie? On Friday for lunch I FINALLY made Chelsey’s Quinoa Stuffed Acorn Squash with Basalmic Maple Glaze! You should really try this – the glaze makes it AMAZING!
Notice anything missing? Perhaps the quinoa? I was so hungry (and on the phone…) when I was making this that I completely forgot to cook the quinoa! By the time I realized it, I was too hungry to wait! Haha, so I used double the amount of chickpeas for a one person serving. Worked for me!
And last but not least, you know you’re officially a year older when you have to insert your age on the elliptical:
Hope you all are having a great weekend! I’ll have a birthday re-cap for you all tomorrow!
What are some small special things that you like to appreciate?

Happy Birthday! Those flowers are beautiful!
I couldn’t sleep in either, but a sunrise is always perfect in the morning when enjoyed with a cup of coffee/tea and some quiet reflection time.
Happy birthday!!!!
That’s so funny what you said about the elliptical–that’s always when it really sinks in for me that I’m a year older
