SHEs Organized

Beautiful spring day here.
Ran 3.2 milesl
Did 10 flights of stairs, so far. 30 more to do before the end of day.
Have a good one.

I did 30 min. of weeding for some of my exercise Sat.
I mowed tbe yard for more exercise.
I walked the dog Sun. For exercise she picked a new route..

What a good thought Harriet on the flaxseed, I wonder if I could add a little to my smoothie?

Twins', I add a heaping tablespoon of ground flaxseed to my smoothie every morning. Thinking about those one-minute muffin recipes made with ground flaxseed. Wonder if I could substitute Chia seed gel for the egg in the recipe? Sounds familiar. I think I tried it and it worked in the past. I used to make different flavors of the one-minute muffins: plain with cinnamon, blueberry, chocolate, and gingerbread. Those would make good desserts, I think.

Ran 2.6 miles.
20 flights of stairs; 10 to go....
Yesterday I checked all 24 boxes in my Daily Dozen app.

I try, Harriet. I try. Sometimes running in the morning sounds like the last thing I want to do, but it is a routine and I do it anyway. I'm always glad I did.

Warm strawberries over the top of a split one-minute muffin is a great idea. Local strawberries will be ripe in a couple of weeks here, so I will definitely give it a try.

chia seed and flaxseed can both be substitutes for an egg I've read.
Remember that chia seed also has blood thinning effect, possibly flaxseed as well, so if you are on blood thinners you might want some medical advice. Some adjustment might be needed.
I swear by 15-20 mls/ tablespoon chia seed as omega 3, keeps my feet and knees working, brain health, and my digestive tract moving along.
I go for a wet mixture - smoothy -watered down with extra cup of water just helps chia swell, it go down and gets my water count up.
Added dry to foods it tended to adhere to my teeth.

I try to think of Nancy, and get some more walking in while its not so hot. In hot weather I'm more of a walk when sun is setting person.
Diet wise, (one's diet being whatever is eaten, rather than a prescribed thing) I've done better avoiding temptation. I probably still need to get rid of the nut bars. They are about 10% sugar on content list, though some of those sugars might be from sources other than 'sugar'. Wishful thinking I say to me.

I like your endorsement of the chia seeds, Lynlee. I first learned about them while reading a book about the Tarahumara who live in Mexico and are amazing long-distance runners. They drink chia fresca to stay hydrated. I am faithful about getting a tablespoon of flaxseed daily, but not as good about getting the chia. I will make more of an effort now. No blood thinners here, so no worries.

I learned about chia seeds first from a hypoglycaemia book, and decades later a vege yoga teacher mentioned them as being an alternate source of omega3 than fish oil that I was taking at a time. Multiple encounters with people later I learned about soaking them. And someone with a lot of RA in the family was endorsing their benefits, and mentioned her DH had to stop taking chia seed before surgery.
