I am so glad I found this!   I’ve read about sugar free apple pie filling, but had not been able to find it, and to order it online the shipping cost was too much.  I found this at Walmart of all places – each can is only $1.69 and each serving is 30 calories and 7 grams of carbs per 1/3 cup – not bad!...

My friend Renee actually brought me a food magazine that I had never seen before!  I didn’t think that was possible!  It is called Cuisine at Home and I really like it – and no ads!  One recipe that caught my eye was the French Onion Salisbury Steak – and you all know how I hate onions, so I subbed in mushrooms.  While I don’t...

This is the third weekend in a row where I haven’t done a meal plan OR a decent grocery shop, so I was spinning the wheel coming up with lunch today!  I had leftover salad from last night’s dinner, so I decided that would be my base.  I had cooked taco meat, which gave me the idea for the taco salad – and I mixed...

are the hardest day of the week for me to get up!   I guess it doesn’t help that I slept in until 10:00 yesterday morning!  I stocked up on my baby spinach and egg whites, and still had some multigrain english muffins so I give you yet another egg sammie! When my mom and I were at the Fresh Market yesterday, I talked her into...

What a great day we had!  My mom ended up coming to my house and we left for lunch and Goodwill in one car – worked out perfect because she stayed for dinner too!  And my step-son came over and hung out with his Dad while I was out and about and Hannah was at work – he stayed for dinner too!  It was a...

We had so much fun last night!  Once you watch a movie in a luxurious theater like that, its hard to go back to a regular movie theater!  My step-son had given us a $75 gift card for Christmas, and even though our tab came to $100 – Joe picked up the rest – that was so nice – THANKS JOE! I started out with...

Tony was able to finish the grass before the rain came, and I finished cleaning the house before Hannah got home from work – she loves everything spotless, so she was a happy girl! Since we ate kind of a late breakfast, I reheated a couple pieces of pizza and cut a cucumber with Annie’s goddess dressing – quick and easy! When my hair gets...

We slept in this morning, and as I was trying to figure out what to make for breakfast with what I had on had, Tony suggested Mama Rini’s and I believe I was dressed and ready to go in 5 minutes! I ate exactly half of my plate – corned beef hash, hash browns, scrambled eggs and english muffin: I used calorieking.com to get a...

My softball team!  We actually won 6-2!  So we’ve won two, tied once, and had two losses – but one of those losses was a forfeit because we didn’t have enough people – I’ll take it!  So far this is the winningest (is that a word?) season we have had! But now on to the winner of my June 1 giveaway! True Random Number Generator...
