Good Morning Ladies..
Sassy ~ I can understand your not wanting to get up and go to work. I worked 3rd shift for 4 years. It was an ok shift to work but most of the time I didn't want to get up and go. The only thing that was good about going to work was the crew I worked with. I like being laid off for the moment but now I am looking for a job that is not 3rd shift.
oogi ~ I love going online looking for recipes. I go to one website alot. I went looking this morning and there are a few recipes for peaches and they are healthy.

hope ~ The pasta salad that we had last weekend was very high calorie, but I loved it. My boyfriend said I did a really good job making it for the first time. I am going to go shopping to get the stuff I need to try to make it low calorie/low fat. It should come out just as good. I hope.
The recipe is:
1 lb box Elbow macaroni
6 large hard boiled eggs
3 med or large tomatoes
2 med (7" long) cucumbers
1 cup lite or fat free mayo
oregano and salt and pepper.
~ Cook the macaroni like you normally would. ~ After you peel the eggs, just use the whites. cut them up into pieces ~ cut up the tomatoes ~ cut the cucumber into slices. (I cut them into slices and then cut them in half again)
~ Then add the mayo. Then add oregano and salt and pepper.
** Your going to want a big bowl for this. It makes a lot.**
I tired adding up the calories for this. The whole recipe comes to about..

buddly ~ Hope everything is going ok with you inlaws.
marbear ~ The cherries sound wonderful. I have so much fruit in my fridge, now I just have to go through it to see what's good. If I can save any of it. I'm going to cut everything that needs to be cut and put it all into a big bowl. My boyfriends mother likes the fruit dip that comes with the platters you get at the grocery store. We actually made a low calorie dip instead which was a tub of fat free whip topping, and fat free strawberry yogurt. It was so good.
It always seems to be so hard to stay on plan when we go away or have plans on the weekend. nobody's perfect. As long as you get back on plan when the weekend is over. That is what counts.
It felt so good to sleep at home. I missed my bed. I completely forgot yesterday.. We came home from Maine with 5 kittens. They are all running around the room. It's so cute. They woke us up this morning.
I have a bunch of cleaning to do this morning. With the kittens here, i am going to clean out my closet, so the cats have more room to play. They have to stay upstairs with us. My mother's boyfriend doesn't want them in the house. So today I am working on the upstairs to make sure the kitty's have enough room and can't get downstairs.
hope everyone has a good day.
