I Was Like Zola Budd…er, with socks.

I Was Like Zola Budd…er, with socks.
You all know I love savory breakfasts over sweet ones.  And while a McDonald’s sausage McMuffin is a nice taste treat, I decided I had time yesterday to make a better breakfast. Here’s a tip – I like baking half a dozen potatoes over the weekend and sticking them in the fridge.  Or in my case, microwaving them and then turning them off and leaving...

My Eyes Are Beautiful

My Eyes Are Beautiful
My breakfast and lunch meal planning this week kind of sucks ass.  I have no idea what I was thinking over the weekend – I guess I was just concentrating on my SIL’s lunches and dinners! So yesterday I stopped by McD’s, got their sausage Mcmuffin off the dollar menu ($1.07!) and had a sliced apple on the side.  Breakfast comes in at 425 calories,...

It Takes Time.

It Takes Time.
I guess I can be a bit impatient sometimes.  After a week of consistent exercising and staying away from my beloved wine, I thought I’d wake up yesterday feeling. . . thinner.  But I didn’t.  In fact, I just felt fat. Mind you, I know my last weigh in was at 170 pounds, and I told myself I wasn’t going to weigh myself until after...

Laughing at Unseen Humor

Laughing at Unseen Humor
I have to say, that when I work only half a day, I seem to be way more focused and get so much accomplished because the “5 o’clock” bell is at 12:15!  It was ready to leave before I knew it. Knowing that I was going to have a late lunch/dinner/linner, I decided to pick up a jalapeno bagel on my way to work and...

Buffalo Zucchini Fries

I am doing the happy dance today!  I have a half day today.  My brother Charlie and his wife Laura and flying into Chicago today!   Their daughter is in a Color Guard National tournament in Indianapolis this weekend.  So while Rachel has to travel with the school, they are flying in, and then my Mom is driving them down to Indi tonight and they are...

I Changed My Mind.

I Changed My Mind.
Tony and I tried to vote early on Saturday.  We walked up to our County polling venue, only to find out that it was a 2 1/2 hour wait!  Our local polling place is at a church basement a couple miles from the house.  I got up early this morning, figuring if there was too long of a line, I’d just have to try again...

21 Day Challenge

21 Day Challenge
Tony made breakfast/lunch for me both Saturday and Sunday morning.  He’s told me that I can’t tell him how awesome his eggs are because then he won’t make them for me anymore.  But I can tell you guys, right? I’ve watched him make them, I don’t know what he does, but they are light, fluffy and airy! Saturday’s breakfast with buffalo scrambled eggs. And yesterday...

171 Miles and $100 Salsa?!

Can You Help a Sista Out?

Can You Help a Sista Out?
My eats were uneventful yesterday – but that’s not what this post is all about! Can you tell I loves me a pork bbq sandwich? Nope, the reason for this post is to let you know about a Blogging Fundraiser my buddy Veronica is hosting today. Another blogger, Suzie of Two Dogs in the Kitchen (of the famed crack lasagna soup I’ve made half a...

Not One. Hocus Pocus!

Not One. Hocus Pocus!
It was a sad Halloween for Bizmoto.  First the lack of participation at work with dressing up.  Yes, four others dressed up, but there were no awards or prizes.  Awards and prizes are my motivation! Because of this ho-hum attitude about dressing up at work, I have to tell you that I went kind of half-assed.  I ended up being an “Iron Chef!” I dressed...
