My name is Anglia. I am a young mom to three wonderful children and engaged to a wonderful man whose been a part of my life since I was 14 years old. I started this blog to help remind myself that times get hard as a mother, a lover, and a woman but I am able to control how I handle it all and I won't allow it to stress me out instead I'll just keep it simple!Apr 17 2009
Nap time today was ruined by the plane that rode right over the house for two to three hours spraying fields! I know this is a job that has to be done but they really should have to call me in advance to see what nap schedules are for the day! 
Unfortunately my camera works so slow that each time I clicked the picture the plane was almost out of site had I of been able to get the close up picture we could probably see who was drving the darn thing!

Easter Candy should really be banned! All the chocolate, suckers, sour candy they are all breaking my diet! My kids got candy from the Easter Bunny at our house and at their grandparents house! I even got a bag of YUMMY candy at my parents house Darn that Easter Bunny he’s just a mean mean animal but boy does he know how to make my tummy yummy! I hope everyone else enjoyed their Easter as well.

I am such an emotional eater! I eat if I’m bored, sad, mad, stressed, and heck I even eat when I’m happy! I also am the type of person that instead of taking the time out of my busy day to fix something to eat I will grab whatever is quickest which just happens to be cans of soda and snacks. I mean they are just sitting there already as a single and waiting to be picked up, I don’t have to do anything but open and insert it into my mouth. If I don’t change my eating habits I’m never going to lose weight or be healthy.
I’m thinking if I cook enough the night before to have leftovers not only to send to work with my fiance but to put into ready to microwave containers then I would grab that instead of the easy to grab cookie.
I should probably get some yogurt for a quick snack. Grab some fruits, and veggies but have them already cut up nicely and placed in a little baggie for a quick grab and go deal.
I love those little already made salads so it couldn’t really hurt to have some of those on hand or just make a salad myself and place it in little containers.
It’s funny how when you sit and think about how easy and quick healthy eating can actually be those “it’s quicker to grab a snack” excuse seem pretty lame!
Here are a few healthy recipe ideas:
