Wow!! I can't believe this is the last weekend of May already!! Where has the time gone?
Home
Front Foyer Part 2
Here is the Hemnes shoe cabinet, and it has cleared all the shoe clutter quite nicely!!
Fashion
Although I like the idea of this look, I am not happy with how short this sweater is.
Verdict: Kept the skirt and blouse, but donated the sweater.
Food/Drink
New Recipe Part 2
The Asparagus and Pea Pancakes were DELICIOUS!!! These pancakes have more of a savoury flavour which I felt would be better for either a late brunch or dinner, rather than breakfast, which is what they are listed as in the cookbook. The sauce called for fat-free greek yogurt but I used low-fat sour cream instead which would probably add 1 Smart Point™ to the recipe for a total of 8 Smart
Points™rather than 7.
I served them with turkey sausages for a great savoury side!
Favourite Things
My new obsession: Kate Spade.
Hubby got me this Kate Spade tote bag as a gift...Thanks Honey!!
Inspiration
Is it selfish to help yourself before helping others?
Many people were raised to believe that helping yourself before others is selfish. However, according to the Oxygen Mask Theory, if you are in a plane and the oxygen masks come down due to loss of pressure, you are directed to put your oxygen mask on first before helping even your children. The premise behind this is that if you give your children oxygen first and you die of asphyxiation, your children will be without a parent. What good does that do?
Before you can help others, you need the energy to be able to be of assistance...you need to care for yourself in order to be of help to others...NOT the other way around.
Have a great week and see you in June!!
Remember, I am always your friend,
NJ 😘
