Zucchini Boats

YUM!  That’s the only word to describe my lunch today.  I got the idea for today’s lunch from two different inspirations – the first one is my latest issue of Cook’s Country.  It’s a funny story, my great Aunt gave me a subscription for Christmas – I absolutely loved it. Fast forward to around April and I get a bill saying that this is the 4th...

Back in the saddle again

The windshield got fixed yesterday, so Hannah doesn’t have to be my chauffeur anymore!  Thanks Hannah for driving me to work the past two days! 😀 I stopped at CVS on my way to work and picked up almonds for snacks.  They had a buy one pound get another pound half off, so I got 2 pounds of almonds for $9! Breakfast is the last...

Farewell to Pizza – Day 1 South Beach!

Thanks for all your comments on the windshield yesterday – still so weird that happened! So last night was pizza night – I forgot to post about it because I was watching Food Network Star – I love Melissa!  I like how she’s toned down her bubbliness – I thought her presentation was the best too. So you know how Tony and I don’t like...

Lucky!

Boy, am I lucky!  I was driving to the grocery store this afternoon and all of a sudden my windshield on our truck just completely smashed!   I don’t know if it was a golf ball, baseball, or just a branch (it was windy) but I had to call Tony because I was covered in tiny pieces of glass!  Luckily we only had to wait 30 minutes...

We used both spare ribs and country style ribs: While Tony and I were out today, we stopped at...
