Cleopatra Exhibit

California Science Center


A fun exhibit out front of the Science Center where you could lift up a Toyota Tundra. 













My sister and I couldn't stop laughing at this mask.  I don't know if it is the buggy eyes or and smirk on his face.


OK, Mom's walkin' like an Egyptian, Kylie's doing Charlie's Angels, and I can't stop laughing and the two of them :) 

And last but not least, we can not go up to LA without stopping at Philippe's for one of their world famous french dipped sandwiches and pickled eggs.  Yumm!

Portion Control

This is something I really struggle with.  I love food and I love to eat.  But...I have been packing on the pounds in record time since I have gone off my ADHD medicine.  It's really getting out of my control and I'm starting to freak out.   So, I'm going to try it the old fashioned way--diet and exercise.     
I decided that portion control might help since I really eat pretty healthy already.  

It turns out that the serving size for Grape Nuts, which I eat just about everyday, is 1/2 a cup.
I probably had triple that in my bowl.  Oops.


Below is what the actual serving of Grape Nuts should look like.
It looks a little sad but honestly I was just as satisfied in the end from the smaller bowl of cereal.
Lesson Learned :)
