My co-worker friend and I walked again at lunch yesterday – 45 minutes in 30 degree weather! It really wakes you up with all that fresh air!
We love this walk – not too much traffic – the loop is about 2.5 miles. And we talk about food and recipes the whole time so it goes by really fast!
Breakfast was more delicious grapefruit from my MIL 😀
Any my typical spinach/egg white/english muffin sammie:
Lunch was my glazed tofu dish I kicked up. I knew that wouldn’t be enough considering the whole dish is 380 calories, so I stopped at the store on my way to work – each of these mini egg rolls is 60 calories. While you see three in the pictures, I only ate two – I read the serving size wrong! So lunch comes in around 500 calories.
Last weekend when I was making my meal plan, I realized I had a dinner size portion of beef stew. Note: once you defrost beef stew and reheat it, it looks like dog food. While it looks like ass, the flavor was just as good!
Have you heard of Foodista? They call their site “The Cooking Encyclopedia Everyone Can Edit.” There are tons of recipes, cooking techniques – and they are also conducting a food blog cookbook that will be printed and published!
I am so proud of myself – not only was I able to figure out how to type in my recipe, but I successfully uploaded a picture! This is huge for someone who isn’t technical!
If you have time, can you vote for me? I submitted my Thai Basil Chicken in Baked Wonton Cups, Pumpkin Pancakes and my Copycat Panera Bread Broccoli Soup. Thanks! 😀 Just click on the “vote for me” buttons on the right side of my blog – one thing I couldn’t figure out was how to put that in an actual post, so I made it a widget (and any tips to put it in an actual post would be appreciated!) 😀
Question of the Day: I am thinking of changing my domain name – back in September of 2008 when I started this blog, I wasn’t even thinking about it – Biz was my nickname and 319 is my birthday!
So tell me what you think!

Two more days til the weekend – woot! I am off to make Noble Pig’s Bloody Mary Soup for my lunch today – its quick, only takes 20 minutes! Have a great day all! 😀
Buh-wa-ha-ha…so far I am the deciding vote for mybizzykitchen.com.
Hint: When you are home for a SECOND day with violent stomach flu, looking at pictures of reheated beef stew is a decidedly BAD idea.
So sorry Cassie! Hope you feel better! 😀
So you are up for chili at lunch today, right?!
beautiful winter pics brrr, it’s 60 here in Vegas 🙂 I will have to vote for you! I’m not very technical either, heck I’m not even sure how to make a widget lol Have a great weekend!
Great pics! What are you using for the background in your lunch pics?
I like the first two names, but like someone said the 2nd one might be easier to remember.
Ha – glad you asked – its actually card stock from my desk! I only have about 4 colors though – red, bright yellow, soft yellow and green! 😀
I voted. Looks like a beautiful winter walk!
Best of luck on the contest. I always love your recipes and I am sure you will win!
yay! i voted! ; )

Brrrrrrrrr, looks cold up there, Biz!!
I voted!! – pretty interesting site.
Love mybizzykitchen.
The winter pictures are beautful.
Thanks Bonnie! 😀 Could you please send us some of your Floriday weather up here!
I’m laughing at the dog food stew, because years ago, when my entire family was coming from the west coast for Christmas, I made a bunch of meals ahead and froze them…imagine my surprise when my beef stew looked exactly like yours did. But hey, they were family, so I still served it. And yes, it still tasted good!
I do like the URL mybizzykitchen, but I think people are more likely to remember biggestdiabeticloser and associate it with you. Just my 2 cents 🙂
What is it about those crescent rolls that are so amazing?! I can never have just one.
Just voted for you! I wish I were creative enough to make up recipes. 🙂
What a BEAUtiful day. We’ve had so many sunny days recently, it almost – ALmost – makes up for the cold!
i love mybizzykitchen but in my head, you’ll always be the biggest diabetic loser!!!!
I’ve been thinking about a domain name too. And moving from blogger to wordpress, I just love wordpress so much more.
Your walk looks so peaceful!
Beautiful pics. Tried to vote but I need to set up an account, so I’ll get back there in a bit…do I have to actually try the recipe first before voting?
Nope! No need to try it out – you can judge based on my pictures! 😀
The egg rolls look so good!
Yay!! I love working out with my co-worker during lunch, too!! Definitely helps break up the day. That site sounds cool – thanks for the rec!
OK, I voted away… Good luck.
Your food is always such a delight to see. i so admire your dedication.
2 and a half miles in 30 minutes is not a slow pace. Well done. Do you have a pedometer, how many steps?
I have NEVER been able to adjust a pedometer correctly, so I’ve basically given up – and our walk takes between 40-45 minutes, so we aren’t that fast, but there are some hills 😀
Those are some beautiful winter sights!! And just for the record, I LOVE mybizzykitchen. 🙂
