Good day all! I'm posting early because I've got a crazy schedule tonight. I have a "Ladies Night Out" at our club tonight from 6-8, then I'll come home and get the kids to bed and then hop in the car with the hubby and make the 4 1/2 hour drive to Vegas!!!! We want to get there tonight so we don't waste the day away tomorrow driving.

This morning's breakfast was Fage yogurt mixed with a tablespoon sugar free strawberry jelly, a half cup of fiber one and some strawberries and blueberries. Mmm Mmm good!

Dropped the kids off at school and then was off to cooking class at Great News in Pacific Beach. One of my favorite places to be. Today's class was "Paella Party." Before class started I grabbed a latte from Starbucks (double tall skinny vanilla latte to be exact):

First up was a Mushroom Tapa in Puff Pastry with Blue Cheese. Alongside was some Mediterranean Caesar Salad with Olives and Sun-Dried Tomatoes. Both were really good! Check out Sangria in the corner. Yum.

Next was the main event: Paella with Grilled Chicken and Shrimp, Sausages, Artichokes, Red Peppers and Peas:

It was a really good basic recipe that I would definitely make again!!

And lastly was dessert: Orange Catalonian Cream with Fresh Berries (and a few bites missing):

It was very good...a lot like creme brulee but softer and creamier. A very good class!!

So now I need to get packed up for this weekend and dressed and ready for tonight. I'm bringing my laptop with me this weekend....hopefully the hotel has free wireless internet. :) If not, I'll be bringing you my Vegas and Emmy Awards report on Monday. Ciao!!
