Scallop Pesto Pasta

 Scallop Pesto Pasta:

8 oz wheat uncooked angel hair pasta

1/2 C all purpose flour

1/2 t salt

1/4 t pepper

1/2 lb sea scallops

3 T I Can't Believe It's Not Butter

1/2 C prepared pesto

Cook noodles according the the directions on the box. Combine flour and S&P in a large zip lock bag - shake the scallops to coat. Once coated, cook scallops for 2-3 minutes on each side (until they turn opaque). Once the cooking is complete, drain the pasta and toss with the pesto. Top with scallops and enjoy. 
I loved this dish, but I really like seafood. It was a nice change of protein and it made about 6 servings. I had it for lunch the next two days. :)

My brain is not seeing clearly now.....the randomness emerges.

1. I love to bleach my teeth with the white strips. However, it randomly numbs my tongue. Completely strange. Luckily, my tongue does not get bleached.

2. I want to use that latice (or whatever its called) to lengthen my eye lashes. Has anyone tried it? It says a side effect of using it could be growth in a random area.....So you may have hair growing like not in the last line??? Sketchy. 

3. I need a job.

4. I need a new hair person either in Columbus or Auburn. I would love to go back to Dimensions. Does anyone still go there and know roughly how much it $$$?

5. I need a new computer (laptop preferred) and a wi. Yes these are needs and not wants. 

6. My husband has decided he wants to be more healthy since it has been a whole smoke free month - ideas for workouts for him - someone who really does hate to work out.

7. I need healthy MAN meal and snack ideas. Please help. 

8. Lastly, I will sell season 2 of the original 90210 show for $15 and buyer pays S&H. I'm ready to buy season 3.

9. Nothing taste good as skinny looks. 

10. Did I mention I need a job?

PS I cannot change the layouts and design of my blog.....Can anyone help? The design editor isn't working for me.

"Run Run Rudolph"

Run Run Run is exactly what I did today.

I decided to train and try to run a 5K back in December.

I don't know why.

I don't think it was a New Years resolution.

I just hate running and decided that I might become that annoying, peppy, obsessed runner if I tried it. I am still not loving it. But, I did have my 5K this morning. 

A 5K is 3.1 miles. Not a far distance, unless you aren't a runner.

There was a massive crazy winter storm in Texas. Abilene shut down for 4 days. The storm traveled (luckily no snow and ice) to GA. The past two days have been so cold and rainy. Yesterday it rained all day and was in the 30's. I dreaded getting ready this morning - the high was 49 degrees, but the race started at 10 a.m. My parents drove up so it forced me to actually go (see, I totally lack that runner motivation).

Anyways, I ran it and I finished it. My goal was to run it in less than 40 minutes and I am proud to say that I ran it in 38:40 (12:30 per mile). Woo hoo!

My next goal: 10K in April. At least I have new shoes to keep me motivated......

I trained for 5 weeks. For any of you that are interested in doing the same, here was my guide:

Good cookbook. It is a great chance to play around with seasonings and eat light. This week's challenge will be from

I am looking so forward to it, but have no idea where this cookbook came from. 

Happy Super Bowl Weekend!
