Want to know a quick way to lose weight?
There is none. It takes time and effort. I know people that are a size six or smaller and go on crazy diets trying to lose weight. I knew a woman that lived on those diet shakes for a while. Recently, I heard of a product called Miracle burn. Apparently it’s a diet pill. Diet [...]
Are you ready for tomorrow?
I’m sort of ready. I cleaned over the weekend, but had told myself I’d clean again before dinner tomorrow. I’m totally not wanting to clean any more. Food wise, I’m all set. I even stopped today and picked up a ham, after one of my brothers told me he wasn’t crazy about ham. I borrowed [...]
Thanksgiving. Time to feed the masses.
I have cooked Thanksgiving dinner for many years. I have cooked for my family since before my children were born, before my brothers became adults and before my Grandma died. Thanksgiving in my family means many things, especially family and good food. These days, a holiday meal for my entire family means inviting my parents, [...]
Want to have a little fun?
Do you eat? Do you learning a little bit about others? If you answered yes to either than my weekly meme called Four Foods on Friday is perfect for you! I run it over on Fun, Crafts and Recipes. I ask four new food related questions each Saturday. You have all week to answer the [...]
New food meme! Quick and fun!
For anyone that hasn’t noticed, I also have a recipes blog called Fun, Crafts and Recipes. I just started a new meme that I’d really love people to participate in. It’d be fun for all of us to enjoy some light learning about our fellow bloggers and maybe find a new recipe or idea. Please [...]
That lousy mouse and coffee continued
I have a Compaq Presario computer that was given to me about two years ago. Tonight as I was in the middle of writing the mouse died. I was actually in the middle of copying and pasting, to be specific. Fortunately I had picked up a trackball a while back and had never installed it. [...]
String cheese
How do you eat string cheese? My older son peels it, or maybe some people call it stringing. I tend to just bite it. My son insists it tastes different depending on how you eat it. I don’t find that to be the case. Packaged mozzarella cheese was on sale last week at the Shop [...]
Bad Pez
Today I was at the drug store and on the counter near the register I saw mini Pez. At first I thought I was reading it incorrectly. I mean, Pez are so easy to distinguish from other candies. They come in a dispenser that usually has a head on it. Not these Pez. These were [...]
Food for thought.
I stopped at the grocery store this afternoon for a couple of things. I went to the deli counter to get my older son some turkey. A lady on the line was getting head cheese. What in the world is that stuff anyway? It doesn’t look like cheese. It’s chunks of something in some sort [...]
Hot dogs! Get your hot dogs!
I haven’t felt great all day so I didn’t feel up to attempting to make dinner. My older son was content having canned ravioli. We had some leftover pasta salad, and I made a package of hot dogs. I gave the baby a hot dog and I had 2, leaving 5 for my hubby or [...]
Mashed potatoes
Well I got a sample of Idahoan loaded baked flavor mashed potatoes in the mail the other day. I wasn’t feeling up to eating anything quickly available so I decided to give this a try. I dumped the package in a bowl and added water and nuked it for a couple of minutes. The resulting [...]
Sleep study revisited
Well I went to the sleep center at the local hospital last night for my second sleep study. The rooms were very similar to the place I went last time except it was obvious these used to be hospital rooms, and they were in a hospital. I got to talking a bit with the tech [...]
It’s hump day
Littlest brother is heading back to San Diego tomorrow. It’s been nice having him home. We’ll miss him. Love ya bro. Had lunch today with an old friend from my previous job, it was fun catching up. Had this for dinner, it’s pretty good but needs some onion. It’s been so nice for 2 days, [...]
Corn Sausage Chowder – yum!
This is a recipe I recently found that quickly became a favorite. It’s great for a cold or damp day. I think it tastes best on the second day. I found the recipe on the Better Homes & Gardens website, also Midwest Living. Corn Sausage Chowder Makes 6 servings Start to Finish: 30 minutes Ingredients 1 [...]
