Points.

You know Weight Watchers.  I know you do, and therefore my explanation of Points is completely unnecessary.
I’m looking for 3-4 Point lunches.  So I’ve tried out a variety of Smart Ones and Lean Cuisines.  Today’s Flavour is/was  Sweet & Sour Chicken and let me say this.  It’s bad.  The picture on the box should have [...]

Tour Guide Meme

Introducing the Weekend in Your City Meme!
I read this meme on this fantastic mom’s blog and thought I would join in the fun.
Here’s how it works. Pretend that you have out of town guests visiting your city for the very first time and you’re the tour guide. Where would you take them? What would you [...]

Turning the Day Around

I have a truly FANTASTIC Husband.  Do you know what he did today?  He did this:

What is this you ask?  All over my normally tidy and clean desk?  These are the notes that I have taken of action items from each of the 9 (yes NINE) meetings I’ve been on today.  Only 2 of them [...]

Diesel

I’m having a shitty day.  Things are not going my way and I am frustrated.  The amount of work on my plate is causing a massive overflow and because I’m in this funk I am not able to see above or around it so I am going to sit on top of the work and [...]

Red Tomato Centerpiece.

I don’t entertain a lot.  I’ve had some real flops like…
Our first married Christmas.  Preface: The whole gift thing is clearly very important to me.  He knows how Christmas is a very very big deal and how very important it is as a holiday and how much I just love all things Christmas.  I stressed [...]

Chapped Lips and other signs of the Fall

Dear Fall:
I’m not sure how you do it but I just love you.  I love everything about you.  I love the first good chill in the air that requires the softness of cashmere (my love of cashmere will certainly come out in future postings).  I love the bright orangeness of the pumpkins.  I love the [...]

Your Bootiful

What a weekend.  It was actually great and nice and everything wonderful you’d want out of a weekend.  Stuff was accomplished, other stuff wasn’t.  We had a great dinner out on Friday and I made homemade Bolognese sauce for dinner last night and tonight I’m roasting a chicken with all the good stuff (stuffing, green [...]

Easy like Sunday Morning

Sunday morning is potentially my favorite part of the week.  It’s just me, Oreo, Teddy and the DVR and all of you of course.
Have you ever sold your house?  Because I could use some advice.  It’s stressful to always leave the house neat, tidy and oh, yeah CLEAN.  On top of that I’m getting anxious [...]

Oatmeal Review

In an effort to be more dull I’m going to tell you about my Oatmeal realization this week.   I love Oatmeal…Apple Cinnamon to be specific and that is in fact the ONLY kind of oatmeal that I like.  For breakfast I am known to eat 2 packets of the Quaker Low Sugar Apple & Cinnamon [...]

Reading List

I love lists.  So natrually this meme from Miss. Zoot appealed to me greatly.  This has proven several things to me.  a. I have not read that much, b. I should be reading more, c. I haven’t even HEARD of some of these so it’s more clear then ever that I was an Eco major [...]
