I love, love, love Greek yogurt.  I’ve tried to get Tony to like it, but whenever I’ve made him fruit and yogurt in the past, after the first taste, his comment is usually “this tastes like ass!” But I love the tanginess of it, but I do think I have a sour palate to begin with – give me sauerkraut, vinegar, etc. I am a...

Before I say anything else, I need to give a shout out to my blog friend Renee – I won her giveaway and she sent me some tea (sweet and spicy!) and a magnet pad and a cute card.  Um, check out her one point quiches!  Thanks Renee! I have a confession to make.  I have no meal plan this week.  I know!  When I went...

Usually once Tony goes into surgery I find my spot in the waiting lounge and spread out.  I have my phone, my coffee, my magazines.  I am there for the long haul.  Tony was the last scheduled surgery for his doctor at ten, so I had no idea how long the surgery would take, and the nurse didn’t know. So when other people started crowding...

You all know I love all things Mexican.  Given the chance I think I would have tacos every day. 😀  At the store on Saturday I noticed tiny corn tortillas – I much prefer corn tortillas to flour ones.  And the fact that I could get 4 for three points sealed the deal – well, that and the price – 4 dozen for $1.99! I...

Okay, I just posted this – sorry if you get a second email if you subscribe, but even after I saved it and published, only the first 1/4 of it got published. 🙁  So here we go again. 😀 My sister belongs to a Mom’s chat board for lack of a better word called Mom Mail.  A mom was looking to host a cooking party birthday...

I LOST THREE POUNDS THIS WEEK!  Doing a happy dance. 😀 For breakfast yesterday I knew I wanted something heartier because my diabetes doctor appointment was at 11:45 and I knew I wouldn’t be eating lunch until after that.  English muffin egg white spinach sammie to the rescue.  7 points. I ended up having to wait an hour and 15 minutes for my doctor.  They are...

My friend and registered dietician Nicole pointed out that February is National Heart Month and will be teaming up with some other bloggers who have the chops and credientials to post about heart healthy food and recipes this month.  Um, turns out it takes a lot of schooling to be a registered dietician! So for those of you who may need ideas on how to...

Thanks again for your continued virtual hugs for me and Tony – we appreciate it! My blog title?  Not joking, yesterday six people googled “My Date With the Foot Fetish Freak” to get to my blog.  I cannot explain it, but it made me laugh!  What’s the weirdest search engine tag that your blog ever got? Hannah and I had breakfast together yesterday.  On Mondays and...

I went into work late yesterday because Tony and I had an appointment here: After an ultra sound and a CT scan, they have decided Tony needs one more surgery.  The bottom line is his wound is just not healing as fast or as well we had hoped.  So on Monday he’s going into out patient surgery to have a wound vac put in.  It...
