Cat, Are you going to ACME Oyster House? There is nothing in the world like their grilled oysters. mmmmmm

Lexxiss, We have an Army Green 1980 Jeep CJ5. It doesn't even have shoulder harness seatbelts. But, it's WAY fun.

MrsB, You are almost through week 1. Hang in there! You can do it! :)

Cottage, When Auston was a baby, I changed 99% of the diapers because Jeff said things like, "You are just so good at it!" So now, any time we have a technical/computer issue, I tell him he has to fix it because 'he's just so good at it!' My technical incompetence is going to last WAY longer than diapers did. :D

Hi Kim and Barb!

It is so quiet today! I predict I'll be watching TV by the end of the day. Sometimes, that's a good thing. :)

aloha just answerin questions here


pie crust: whole grain spelt and i use olive oil heart smart margarine (i donno if you can get it in north america)instead of shortening. also-to shorten prep time i mix in a wee bit baking powder w/spelt cut in margarine and add 3 tblsp hot water. works like a charm :)

30 day shred: jillian michaels high intensity workout- mix of cardio, strength and abs. and yes, it is a KILLER!!! you literally feel like (pardon!) hurling ur guts out. is actually good thing, tho. :)

detoxing does indeed suck to high heaven..am still in p1 honeymoon stage..stick with it mrs. b!! right there with ya!!

Chelby...yep, going to ACME (caution..food porn!) and you KNOW I'm going to have some grilled. I'll just pretend there is no butter on them. (the joys of maintaining!) I also plan on some raw. To be followed by a big old seafood salad. (oink!)

I heard earlier on the news this week that oysters can help prevent breast cancer....in that case, Honey, I've got it covered! My ta-tas are safe...I'm an oyster lovin' fool!

Cat, You're KILLIN' me! :) I've waited in line for over an hour to have ACME grilled oysters...

Good afternoon chickies sorry I have been MIA but it has been crazy at work and this week I have been oncall as well. So at home have not been wanting to get on the internet even to say hello.

Hope everyone has a great day, it is beautiful here low 70's and no humid.

Pearlrose & Kim:wave: Nice to hear from you both.

Cottage, hope you get your connection fixed so you can receive all the smiles we send you.

Barb,:strong:

Ok, Cat & Chelby, I'm goin' with you two someday only I'll stay on plan. Boiled seafood, beans and a taste of cole slaw. I may just have to have a green salad before I go!

Cat, Cottage, Janet & Mrs B, thanks for the pie crust ideas. I'm not sure if I'll try it today or tomorrow.

Mrs. B, you are probably thinking, what is a diet where I eat all these foods and don't think about weight, but trust Cat, it is really true. You will feel so much better! Plan ahead since your DH is coming home . Every once in a while my Mom takes me to the all you can eat seafood buffet, because I can eat seafood, vegies and salad and just skip bread and dessert...and still lose weight.

I got involved in a major kitchen clean up since it was so hot out. I don't want to run out of steam in the middle of a baking project.
