Kid Sister

Fresh the movie was awesome!! A little more serious than Food, Inc, but just as powerful. I highly recommend watching it if you can find a screening in your area. And hopefully it will be out on DVD soon.

I took this awesome Vega bar to munch on. Love these soooo much!! It’s funny how both Vega and Amazing Grass bars have really grown on me. I think when my samples are all gone I will be buying more of both!

I also shared a little popcorn with my neighbor!

I quickly came home after the movie to find dinner almost ready by Matt!! I scrambled to make my lunch (and photograph and blog my lunch!!!) while he put the finishing touches on plates.

Hot diggity dog!!

That would be The Great Organic Grass-Fed Uncured Hot Dog! See this post for the info when I got the package of samples. I froze the last 3 and am happy to say they reheated nicely. If you ever get a hot dog craving, these are your dogs.

Served with a pile of roasted brussels sprouts!! Yuuuuuuuuum!

Matt poured himself a glass of milk with dinner (which we rarely do but he’s going out of town and we have a lot of milk) so I decided to have a half glass as well.

Hot dogs and milk. Just like being a kid again!

After dinner we watched the first episode of GLEE!!! So many people have recommended it to me because I love singing and musicals and performances. I won’t say that I loved it, but I sure did love the singing!! And I’m excited to watch more. It was always my dream when I was little to sing a Disney duet with a boy 😉

Lately I’ve been getting in bed to ready in the early 8:00 hour and I’ve been loving it!! Evenings used to feel so rushed for me to get in bed and now that I’m getting up at 5 again, I’m going to bed when Matt does and it makes for such a peaceful wind-down to my day. Happy.

Nite!

  1. everyone always tells me to watch glee, too! I just have to convince the Mister 😉

    so funny with Matt and his milk — i do the same thing! I just had a big glass with a vitamuffin, but I usually ALWAYS have one with my meal 😉

  4. I love brussel sprouts! Does anyone know what happened to Jenna’s blog, eatliverun? When I try to go to it I get an error?

  5. I loooove hot dogs! I will have to check those out. I have to tell you- I found the caramel Oikos yogurt! It was so expensive! I really liked it, but I prefer the original with honey on the bottom. I am so mad at you for starting the darn Oikos addiction! I am going to try making it at home soon. 🙂

    I’m not really mad at you, though. 🙂

  14. Glee will grow on you! It’s not my “style” at all, but I love it!!

    That hot dog looks gooood! I am craving something salty and indulgent…but still healthy 🙂

  16. Glee has to be my new favorite show in a long time! The singing/dancing is so fun and the story line gets better, promise 🙂 Hope you have a good evening!

  19. yay popcorn! those bars sound interesting, i have been meaning to pick one up but i have declared a moratorium on bar-buying bc i go overboard! i LOVE glee!

  20. Wow, I haven’t had an urge to eat a hot dog in forever but that looks pretty decent!

    Though I’d much rather have a plate (or 2 or 3) of roasted brussels sprouts anyday 😉

    Can’t wait for Fresh on DVD either; there aren’t any screenings within 100 miles of me!

  25. you’ll LOVE glee, I gotta say the acting and everything is not AMAZING but the songs and covers sure are =) I watched the whole season in 2 days, not to brag…

  27. Tee Hee I love how you went out to see Fresh, then came home to hotdogs for dinner. 😉
    I know they’re better different than ballpark franks, but I just thought it was ironic/funny!

    I do like the Amazing Grass bars too. So delicious!

  34. Just started following your blog and really love it and your photos! I was wondering why you guys stray away from glasses of milk?

  42. Hey Kath, shout out for TX readers: HEB Central Market (which you can find in most HEB stores) has an uncured organic beef hot dog that is really good! They’re right along with the Applegate Farms in the “hot dog” section and for a little less $.

  45. Oooh… that hot dog looks so delicious. My hubby gave up eating ALL hot dogs years ago and cannot be convinced that some are okay. Thanks for the link to the info. I’ll see if I can get him to give in!

  48. Honestly.. I’m not really a hot dog person. I know you can read the ingredients and realize its a different product but I have some strange associations there… haha… and I’m also shocked you aren’t obsessed with Glee! Give it some time – the show ROCKS!

    Reply

  49. I totally feel the same way without Glee. I mean, I love it, but mostly for the music. If it didn’t have the singing it would be kinda “eh” but it does…so it’s awesome!!

    Reply

  51. You will LOVE Glee just give it a few more eps. I thought the first couple were so weird/cheesy but now I’m a GLEEK! You will be soon too. I even have a few of their songs on my run mix. (I may or may not have almost fallen off the treadmill dancin to the Glee version of Don’t Stop Believing.) 🙂

  52. OMG healthy hot dogs? You are totally my hero for posting about these; I was lamenting the loss of dogs from my diet (because let’s be honest, most of the kinds we find in the store is just not good for us) and now I don’t have to 🙂

  55. I’m pretty sure I know every Disney song by heart – and I love glee! Also envious of your roasted brussel sprouts – I’ve been eating a packet raw almost daily for the past month. Necessity breeds invention, or non-invention, I guess!

    Reply

  58. I haven’t even heard of “Fresh.” Thank you for the recommendation! I still need to get around to seeing “Food, Inc.” Perhaps a back-to-back screening is in my future….

    I love your kid-like dinner. While I rarely eat them, I do like a good old hot dog every now and then. Usually in July, while at a rooftop BBQ in Brooklyn.

  60. how amazing is glee??? I can’t wait for the 2nd disc comes out! I haven’t made my own brussel sprouts..the first time I tried them was back in November, which I can’t believe. I like them but haven’t experimented with them myself, but yours look delish!

  62. it all looks great, except the bun! would rather have no bun than a whole wheat one on a hot dog. sorry…do eat ww bread, but that bun just doesnt go w a dog!

  63. I would go to bed at 8 every single night if I could. I’m such a big go to bed early/rise early type of person. My college friends just can’t fathom it!

  64. Glee will grow on you! The first few episodes, I was like “What the heck?” but now I am a huge fan. Now you have me curious about “Fresh” I am going to have to see if it is showing anywhere in my area. Thanks!

  66. I can’t wait to see Fresh! These movies, like Food Inc., are so eye opening! Everyone should HAVE to see these movies. Big changes need to happen.

    I will look into those hot dogs. I LOVE hot dogs but not since my eating habits have dramatically changed, now I cringe looking at the ingredients. We found a pretty great natural hot dog in our local market. I’m getting to the point where I choose to not eat meat, unless I know it’s raised organically or at the very least grass-fed with no hormones or anything artificial added to it!

  67. Like everyone else says…. stick with Glee – it took me a while to get into it and its a bit slow at first but gets really good….

    Haven’t even heard of Fresh but it sounds good – hope we get it in the UK.

    ps just wanted to let you know that you got me to try roasted brussel sprouts and am now ADDICTED! (and kale chips too!) – would never have thought of it, so thanks!

  68. I love kid food nights! They are so much fun! As for GLEE, I was the same way when I saw it. I took dance for years (loved it) and I sang in chorus. I loved the singing part of glee but was not blown away by the characters. I watched more and they do get more established and it becomes kind of addictive. My friends loved the show and I did not get it…now I do.

  69. I’ll have to get my hands on some of those dogs! My husband is a hot dog fanatic.

    Although, in Chicago, putting ketchup on your hot dog is a serious crime! Mustard only. (Plus pickle relish, onions, tomatoes, a sport pepper, and celery salt, – on a sesame bun – for a truly authentic one!)

  71. Roasted brussel sprouts are one of my favorite things in the world –yum! It looks like he did a great job cooking them! I love Glee too! In reality, its not very good, completely cheesy, and the story lines are unreal, but it is positively addicting!

    Reply

  72. Those hot dogs look awesome! I checked out the site and the nutrition info rocks!
    I hope you become as addicted to Glee as hubby & I are. It really is one of the most entertaining and funny shows I have seen in a long time!

  73. I love roasted brussels sprouts! And hot dogs are great in the summer, though I try to buy turkey dogs when I can.

    I love Glee! It took me a few episodes to get into it, but I’m glad I kept watching. I can’t wait for it to come back on the air!

  74. I recently saw Fresh the movie in my Holistics class…loved it! I cannot wait for it to come out on DVD so that I can share it with everyone I know!

    I am usually not a huge fan of hot dogs (mostly because of their ingredients) I will have to check these out!
