The protein bars I made were a huge success! The second batch that is :) Everything was going really well with the first batch until I got to the sea salt part. I forgot to buy sea salt at the store so I went a searchin for some in my house. I came across an older bottle that I had gotten as a part of a dirty santa gift last year at Maury's family Christmas. So I break open the seal and begin to grind the salt into my batter. Then all the sudden the lid breaks loose and the entire jar of salt goes into the batter. I was so upset. I frantically tried to extract all the excess and thought that I got it all until I baked them. They were so salty and awful, I wanted to cry. So I pitched that batch and made a new one the next day. I must say, these are much better and I have even had two friends from school ask for the recipe!
I've been eating a lot of the protein bars lately because I won a local pageant last weekend! I am so excited to make the trip back to state, I can't even stand it! It's going to be hard, but I know I can do it. I am so ready.
This week was also the beginning of level 2. It's really really hard. Fluids and Electrolytes especially. I have just felt like a zombie, walking all over campus. Basically like a little pin ball in the machine of life. Just bouncing around hoping to score some points somewhere and not get lost. It promises to smooth out, but I don't know. Between this, my two jobs, Maury, the pageant, family and time for myself I'm going to be exhausted. But I know the plans the Lord has for me. I know, without a shadow of a doubt I am in the perfect place right now.
