Motivation....

Am I losing it? Maybe. Or maybe because I'm just in a general funk that I'm not on top of things anymore.

Anyway, Friday, DH and I went to the movie to see Tyler Perry's "Why did I get married?" and it was good, we had some butter popcorn and some M&Ms then went out to dinner where I only had a French Onion Soup and some bread.

Saturday morning, I went to the gym (Elliptical - 15 minutes - 160 calories) while DH was giving blood, went for a much needed haircut and eyebrow wax and I felt like a new woman. Grocery shop and hang out the rest of the day.

Sunday, went to church (FCC), then home for a breakfast, then to the gym for the boy's boot camp and our workout (Treadmill - 35 minutes, 5.0 incline, 3.0 mph and 2 mins at 4.5 mph - 290 calories and Elliptical - 10 minutes, cross ramp 10 and resistance 7 - 115 calories) Had a great sweaty time. Then a quick tour at the mall and out for dinner at the same place than Friday where I had another French Onion Soup, 1/2 Corn beef/Swiss Cheese Sandwich and some homemade chips. We shared a brownie/ice cream/whipped cream desert.

Saturday night, I made this...

Orange Chicken

3 lbs boneless, skinless chicken breasts, cut in 1" cubes
1 cup of milk
1 cup of orange juice
Peel of 1/2 orange
Wheat Flour
Sauce:
1-1/2 cups orange juice
1/2 cup of soy sauce
Peel of 1/2 orange
2 tbsp rice vinegar
1/4 cup of brown sugar
1 cup of water
2 tbsp of cornstarch
1 orange sliced and quartered
Chopped green onions

Mix milk, orange juice and orange peel in a bowl. Deep the chicken in it, then in wheat flour. Put on cookie sheet and bake until done.
Stir orange juice, soy sauce, orange peel, vinegar and brown sugar in small saucepan and cook for about 10 minutes to blend the flavors. Dissolve cornstarch in cold water and add to sauce to thicken.
Put together in wok, chicken, sauce and sliced oranges and stir until hot and well mixed.
Sprinkle with green onions and serve with rice.
