Whew, my work project is finally over!  It has been a long 4 days – I worked 14 hours over the weekend.  No meal planning, no grocery shopping = not happy!  And when that happens, the eating tends to lean towards fast food a bit too much!  Hopefully I didn’t go too overboard! So what happens is that I have to be creative with what...

I didn’t have many readers a year ago, so here is a tribute to my Dad I did last year.  If your Dad is still alive, give him a great big hug for me today! 😀

I worked today and will probably have to work most of tomorrow, so no cooking for Biz this weekend! 🙁  It makes me so sad to write that sentence! Come back Monday night for hopefully good eats!  Don’t forget to enter my Cabot Cheese recipe contest giveaway!

I had a non-stop day at work yesterday and when I got home, all I wanted to do was make dinner and snuggle with Tony – and that’s exactly what I did!  Breakfast yesterday started out with spicy oats: 1/2 cup oats, 2 pieces cooked bacon, 1 Pam fried egg and 1/2 ounce 75% reduced fat cheese and a good shot of Frank’s hot sauce. ...

Super excited about this giveaway, but you’ll have to see my eats first! 😀 Breakfast was something I haven’t had in a while – my apple cheese bread!  1.5 ounce Italian whole wheat bread, 2 ounces apple, 1 ounce 75% reduced fat cabot cheese and an 1/2 cup egg white omelet with diced red pepper and 1/2 ounce of shredded Parmesan cheese. Lunch was leftover...

Guess who got up and did 30 minutes of Jillian’s Body Sculpt for the second day in a row?!  Yep, that would be me!  It’s funny because I love sleep.  And I can sleep a lot.  And since we didn’t get home from the movie theater until almost 9:30 last night, and I had to watch Biggest Loser, and we thought it would be a...

Thanks to Joe for scoring us free tickets to the movie theater he works at, Tony and I took advantage of Tuesday night half price meals and $3 draft beers and $3 house wines!  We saw the Informant with Matt Damon – I am not going to say anything to spoil the movie for anyone, you’ll have to decide for yourself to go!   I gotta post...

What??  Yep, we’ve stepped both feet directly into it!  I’ll never understand Chicago weather – we’ll still probably have an 80 degree day in October!  But Halloween will always be crappy!  Breakfast was a leftover steak sammie.  Two ounces of whole wheat Italian bread, 1 egg, 1.5 ounces 75% reduced fat Cabot cheddar, 1.5 ounces steak and two kiwis. I got a mixed bag of...

What a beautiful day it was today!  I enjoyed it because I think fall is about to bestow upon us this coming week!  Since we went out to breakfast yesterday, today was at home Mama Rini’s!  One fried egg, 1 piece of bacon, 1 ounce of bagel, 1 tsp. light cream cheese, 3 ounces of frozen hash browns, 1/2 tsp. vegetable oil the potatoes fried...

I tend to just take it for granted, but I LOVE that my husband is handy!  He can fix just about any problem around the house, and the maintenance on the cars?  He’s #1!  Turns out both my brake pads needed to be replaced on the Explorer and $75 dollars and one hour later – new brakes!  Thanks Tony!  It’s so funny, but our dog...
