It Got Real

You wouldn't think it, but cleaning can be exercise. I worked up a good sweat yesterday tackling the entire mess that has been consuming my room.

Enter Exhibit A:

I was debating whether or not to put this picture up here because well you'll see. It makes me look like I could enter to be a contestant on TLC's show Hoarders.

But let's be real. My house does not look like it just came out of ad in a magazine all the time.
I was in the process of switching all my winter & summer clothes out of my closet.
And it somehow ended up on the couch. What can you do? Cleaning and organizing are just not at the top of my priority list.

After taking care of that huge mess pile, I needed a break for lunch!

It's no secret I eat a ton of meat, figure buying about 5 packs at the grocery store a week. Yeah, plain baked or grilled chicken can get boring fast. So I switch it up by having tuna alot for lunch.

Usually I just eat it straight out of the can with nothing on it, but I wanted to try out a new way to make tuna salad. What better way to share a recipe with you guys than linking up for Recipe Friday hosted by Candy Fit.

Tuna Salad Recipe:

• 1 can of tuna
• 1 hard boiled egg
• pepper
• lemon juice

After mixing up the tuna, I chopped up one hard boiled egg. You don't have to add the yolk, but I found it makes it extra tasty. So I chopped up the yolk and squished it all together.

I added a splash of pepper and lemon juice on the top for some extra flavor and was done! The hard boiled egg is a healthy alternative to the high calorie mayo.

On a different note....

I'm still going strong in my effort to be kinder. I swear just by smiling at people during the week at the gym, I've talked to three complete strangers!

On the agenda tonight, I'm planning to cook the boyfriend a nice dinner. It's been a long time since I've done that.

*Question- Is your house ever messy?  Please tell me I am not the only one whose house looks like this haha
