Soup

I had planned on making Marisa’s pumpkin, cranberry and apple baked oatmeal for my breakfast this week, but remembered I was out of flour.  Um, there is no flour in the recipe!  I kicked myself when I got to work and found the recipe on my desk and realized I already had everything to make it.  🙁 I didn’t really have a taste for anything...

First off, if you have a blogger blog, I can’t comment at all.  It either gives me an error message, or if I type a comment, hit enter, it just disappears.  So know I am reading even if I can’t comment.  Am I the only one who’s having this trouble?? There are a couple dishes that I suck at, yet I keep trying over and...

I must say I think I’ve been pretty creative so far cooking out of our pantry/fridge/freezer this week. Breakfast was an egg white spinach breakfast sammie on my ciabatta bread with a side of sliced kiwi (which is the last kiwi – bummed I didn’t buy more at TJ’s because they are really good and big.)  That’s what she said.  Breakfast comes in at 11...

Okay, can I just say that my blog post title basically kicks ass! 😀 I decided to get a gag gift for Tony’s birthday last week.  We had seen an infomercial for T-Pain’s microphone – you can sing into it, get beat box rhythms – here is what the microphone can do. [youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8d0HJEO6JBg] So Tony has been sending me love songs at work and leaving them...

Not sure if it was missing my Dad over the 13th anniversary of his death over the weekend, or the dip in temperatures, but I had the urge to make my Dad’s Chicken Brunswick Stew. My parents are both from Virginia, and there was a canned version of brunswick stew that my Dad loved – it came in a yellow can, and once they moved...

Yesterday morning was so cool – I had the windows open in our back room where the computer is and even after shutting the windows I had a throw blanket on my lap – I love that kind of weather! Sadly when I gave Hannah $20 bucks to pick up coffee and coffee filters on her way home from work yesterday, I told her “get...

I love sleep.  So after sleeping in until 10:00 and 10:30 respectively over the weekend, let’s just say the only thing that made me get out of bed at a decent hour was that I wanted to make a breakfast calzone for breakfast. I had leftover pizza dough from a while back – I almost like the dough better the longer it sits in the fridge. ...

I am proud to say that I got up to go to the gym yesterday morning – I had every intention of doing laps, but the pool was full – and I don’t share lanes.  So I ended up getting the aqua dumbbells and ended up doing 40 minutes of upper body in the water – it was really hard to keep those floaty dumbbells...

Tony and I were able to see our doctor yesterday “through the back door” if you know what I mean.  We are full of prescriptions!  Tony has done some research, and he’s discovered Canadian pharmacies are a fraction of the cost here – and its totally legal!  And as much as Tony tried, our doctor would not get him a prescription for dilaudid.   When Tony...

Before I forget, this weeks host of BSI is Nutmeg Nanny and she chose Mango! You guys are going to be jealous of my Chobani score this weekend – only .75 cents each!  While I actually prefer plain Greek yogurt because its less carbs, the flavored ones are delicious.  Although I ended up eating the yogurt later on by itself since I ate the fresh strawberries. ...
