This post is coming at you not from L.A. I was supposed to have been here since Wednesday hanging with the IDEA & Blogfest crew, but that didn’t happen due to crippling tibia/knee pain from the car accident. I actually made it to the airport terminal thinking I was feeling “not so bad” then once I got there realized it was a bad idea to be going anywhere but home. The pain in my knee was excruciating. It felt like the bone in my leg was about to break and I do not need a full on fracture to add to my injury cycle.

Thankfully I booked Southwest and they are super accommodating about canceling flights last minute. I headed home in rush hour traffic and the constant stop and go braking was unbearable. I was in so much pain when I got home. I know I won’t be able to drive to the office next week. I can’t sit with it bent for long either. I have to either stand or lay to keep it from hurting.

I did have an x-ray this morning, but won’t see the orthopedic until Monday. I just pray it doesn’t require a cast. I’m hoping crutches will be enough for it to heal. I’m certain it’s a stress fracture. The pain is exactly like all the others. I must confess I’m scared to death of how fragile my body is. Who would think you would get a stress fracture getting rear ended? Turns out my brother fractured his ankle in a car accident a few years ago. Crazy stuff.

Now let’s chat about this creamy delicious snack. Did you know this is a recipe redeux? Yup! I’ve been going through old recipes from the early days of SF and sprucing up the recipe and photos.

It amazes me to look back at old photos to see how far I’ve come. Theses pictures were really bad. I never thought I’d be able to take a good picture if my life depended on it. Boy did I prove that wrong. To be honest, I’m surprised I stuck with it.

But now, I am even more convinced than ever that you can do anything and everything you put your mind to. First comes putting your mind to a goal then practice, practice, practice.

These muffins are not only gluten free, but also pack a big protein punch with the greek yogurt and provide you vitamin C with the strawberries. They’re dense, creamy and sweet. For those of you watching calories, these weigh in just under 100 calories.

Warm them in the microwave and top with a little Reddi-whip or frozen yogurt and you have strawberry shortcake. They make the perfect summer snack. Hope you guys love them and remember practice, practice, practice!
