Let’s start with the fun part!  The winner of my $35 bathroom scale is: Random Integer Generator Here are your random numbers: 19 Timestamp: 2009-10-20 01:05:44 UTC Missy Maintains, on October 16th, 2009 at 6:27 pm Said: Edit Comment I only weigh myself maybe once every couple weeks. Pretty much because I get depressed when I look at it so I’d rather not know! Yeah..it’s...

Don’t get me wrong.  I love hanging out with my husband and step-son.  But when it comes to football, I don’t think they appreciate my comments! Biz: “OMG, I hate the color of that teams outfits!”  (It was brown and yellow!) Biz: “Does the play stop when they accidentally run over the official?” Biz: “It looks like they are wearing capri pants!” But the best...

Caitlin at Healthy Tipping Point is hosting Week 52 of BSI!  I am so happy I brought it back in January!  I love BSI because it stretches my imagination to use ingredients I might not be comfortable with.  Here are some of the BSI entries I’ve had in the past: Cauliflower – Cauliflower Pizza Crust Chickpeas – Broccoli Cheese Soup with Chickpeas Chocolate – Best...

Reason 1,001 I love my husband!  Holy cow, he made the best shrimp cocktail ever – I have ever had INCLUDING RESTAURANTS!  But you’ll just have to read through my post to get there! Reason 1,002, 1,003, and 1,004 reasons I also love my husband: 1,002:  He took me to a restaurant supply store! 1,003:  He took me to the Japanese grocery store (where I...

I worked a little late last night, and by the time I got home and we ate dinner, I was too comfy snuggling with Tony to blog! 😀 I didn’t do my www.calorieking.com yesterday!  But I don’t think I did too bad.  This morning my blood sugar was 85 so I am happy with that!  As I type, Tony is making my breakfast – his...

Hannah and I had a meeting at school last night regarding her German Exchange Program!  I am so excited for her!  We know our exchange student will be staying with us during spring break (for a total of 20 days I think) and they have so many activities planned, not sure how much time we’ll actually see her!  Hannah doesn’t got to Germany until after...

Busy day today!  I was so excited when Julie asked if I wanted to share Yoplait’s new Fiber One Yogurt! It’s the first yogurt to have 5 grams of fiber per serving!  It’s available in four flavors – Strawberry, Vanilla, Peach and Key Lime Pie and is now readily available in the yogurt section of grocery stores nation-wide.  But the best part is that the...

I have no ability to use salt.  Seriously.  I under salt just about everything I cook.  Thank goodness for Tony!  I constantly bring him things to taste, and the first words out of his mouth is “it needs more salt!”  I think Tony thinks I’ve burned every tastebud in my mouth for all the hot stuff I eat!  This mornings breakfast was no exception! 1...

I had a half day at work today, because the other day, I realized it had been a few months since I had seen my diabetes doctor.  I called, said it was time to make a check up, and casually asked “when was the last time I saw the doctor?”  She said “are you sitting down?”  DECEMBER 2008!  What?  I could not believe it had...

I love football Sundays!  I get to spend the day in the kitchen!  Breakfast was quick – 2 ounce french bread, 1/2 ounce goat cheese, 1/2 ounce swiss cheese and 1 Pam fried egg.  I toasted the bread, and spread the goat cheese on one half, then when I flipped my fried egg over, put 1/2 ounce of swiss and put a top on it...
