I'm So Far Behind - Five Days of Gifts

What is with me....snow is gone, life is back to normal and I can't find 5 minutes to blog my gifts?  Dang!  Here they are for the last little bit! Day 14 - Went out for dinner with some great women and bought one of my friends dinner that I don't get to see very often.  It was nice to sit next to her and catch up! Day 15 - Finish my "29 Gifts" book!  Yeah!  I've told all my friends about it and had one ask if she could read it.  On this day I left it in her mailbox as a surprise.  I hope she…See More

One Million Prayers for Jody

Day Eleven - A Freezing Cold Walk

Yesterday was day three of our weather "situation" here in Georgia.  Most everything, with the exception of a few stores, gas stations, etc are still closed.  Most of our problem now is ice.  BUT - yesterday it was so blasted cold.  The wind was blowing and the temp never got out of the twenties.....solidifying the ice.  While 20 degrees isn't too bad, in Georgia it's a pretty humid cold which is bone chilling.  Needless to say, we all have cabin fever!  Yesterday I went to Bed, Bath and Beyond…See More

Day Thirteen - Paula Deen Would be Proud

Posted on January 14, 2011 at 3:01pm 3 Comments

I'm a Food Network junkie!  I've also been at home all week due to the weather and the impassible roads.  Those two things can be a deadly combination.  Especially when you have a husband that is on a diet!  I was watching Paula Deen the other day and she was making her Gooey Toffee Butter Cakes.  If you haven't had them......to die for!  I had all the ingredients.  I had all the time in the world.  My only problem now is, if I make them, I'll eat them all.

Trying to Make the Diet Appetizing

On January 1st my husband, like may others, started a diet.  He's had much success on Weight Watchers, so we thought that was the best way to go.  It's probably good for me too.  While I don't need to lose weight, I have terrible eating habits.  WW is a terrific way of life and gives you the tools to eat very healthy.  In an attempt to help my husband be more successful this time, I'm trying to make his meals and snacks a bit more tasty and appealing.  We have a great WW cookbook, but some…
