Garlic Bread Answer

Tuesday, April 24th 2007

Ok, I have been off of work for over 3 weeks now recovering from surgery. Yesterday I was CRAVING spaghetti and garlic bread something terrible. I am able to manage the spaghetti by using Dreamfields pasta and a very meaty homemade sauce. However, the garlic bread has always been a stumper. However, I found the answer! Wasa crackers spread with a tbs of fat free cream cheese and sprinkled with garlic powder... then zap in the microwave for 20 seconds and run a knife over the cream cheese ju...

Still Recovering

Monday, April 23rd 2007

I haven't posted in a while. I am still recovering from a medial thighplasty and won't gross you out with the details. Let's just suffice it to say.... NOT FUN!

Maybe I'll get inspired to write something positive and inspirational here soon. I know it could be worse and am thankful that it's not. So, today, I'm going to go to your blogs for some much needed encouragement!!!

Black Bean Fiesta Salad

Monday, April 16th 2007

Yesterday I was watching the Food Network. There was a show on that I hadn't seen ... something about Big Guy Bites??? Anyway, he was making fish tacos.

Anyway, I tried to think about how to make this with a little less "fat" than he had and still make it good. So, here are the basic ingredients if any of you are inclined to play in the kitchen!

Eat Stones Not Rocks!!!

Saturday, April 14th 2007

I apologize if I've posted about rock eating in the past, but I really think it is a relevant topic that needs further exploration. Maybe I could get some government grant funding to investigate why there is such a rock eating epidemic??? Ok, I guess I'll explain. Every single substance we put into our mouths can be classified as a stepping stone or a stumbling rock (previously block... now rock). I have a goal. I am driven to get to my goal. Everything I eat will either support it or defe...

Stir Crazy

Wednesday, April 11th 2007

Ok, it's been a week and a day since I had surgery. My pre-surgery schedule consisted of working a full-time job, a parttime job, and running a few home-based businesses and managing a family. Needless to say, "time" isn't something that I'm used to having. Now, all I have is time and pain. These two things do not go well together. Not that anything goes well with pain... I'm going stir crazy. At least the weather is beautiful today!

Wishing you all well,

Jackie...
