Been SO Long!

Oh my goodness it has been so long since I have blogged! Guess I have been slightly busy ;) I have a lot to upload but I'll start with what I made for dinner tonight...my all time favorite meal...Zucchini Quiche!! This recipe is from my Grandma Jan, all though I am sure I don't quite make it as good I like to think about her when I make it hoping she will join me for dinner <3

#1 Zucchini Quiche:
4 cups thinly sliced Zucchini { I shred mine in the food processor}
2 med. sized onions- chopped
1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup chopped parsely {Ive used both fresh and dried before}
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon leaf basil
1/4 leaf oregano


2 eggs slightly beaten
2 cups shredded mozzarella cheese{ you can buy it already shredded}
1 can pillsbury refridg. quick crescent dinner rolls
2 teaspoons dijon mustard

Saute zucchini and onions in the butter in lg. fry pan over med.low heat until Zuch is tender {prob. about 10 min,stir frequently}

Stir in parsley, salt, pepper, garlic powder, basil and oregano, remove from heat.
Stir eggs and cheese in large bowl
Add zucc. mixture to the eggs and cheese

Separate rolls into triangles and arrange in 9x9 or 11x14 dish or a glass pie plate, depending on how thick you want the crust and how deep you want the quiche to actually be. If you use a pie plate or 9x9 you will probably have too much egg mixture left over. Obviously a quiche pan works too.
Press the dough together over bottom of the dish and up the sides just a little{it will be thin}
Spread mustard over the top of this and add your egg mixture

Bake at 375 degrees for 35-40 min. pie plate 30 min.

#2 /#3 DIY Body Scrub!
Before we went to Florida I wanted to get a spray tan, but I also wanted to scrub the dry wintery skin right off me! So I looked up DIY scrubs on Pinterest and combined my favorite ingredients/what I had in my apartment. This is a MUST TRY, so easy to make and my skin felt SO GOOD, not to mention it smelt delicious as I showered and I think the coffee woke me up! (Recipe in pic, I stored it in an empty Almond Butter jar-keeps in fridge:))

#4 Dr. Seuss before his time: here is a funny, ironic, true picture I came across via a past professor that I have to share! What Dr. Seuss books really mean, I would rather read about these things in Dr. Seuss language for sure! What do you think?

It has been a busy few weeks and it's not calming down any so no crazy diets or workout regimes to share. I am still having a smoothie once a day, tryin to eat healthy, and workout at least 3-4 times a week (I find I am actually more productive when I do!). This part of the semester/ year is hard I am not trying to kid myself but we can do it...warm weather is on the way! More things to come later in the week or possible next week haha. xoxo
