I hope you all had a nice and enjoyable Christmas! I wasn't feeling that well but it was still a great time spent with our family. Our festivities started Friday and haven't stopped yet. We celebrate until tomorrow night - needless to say, we're exhausted! How did you do with...

Tonight we went with my husband's family to the Christmas Ranch in Morrow, OH. It was great! Our son loved it - it was much easier parking and less people than the Festival of Lights and just as beautiful. There were tons of little shops with everything from bakery goods to ornamen...

I have been wanting Papa John's pizza for several weeks now. I finally broke down and decided to give in tonight to what I wanted. 1 slice counts as 2 starches, 1 meat, and 1 fat. It is all about how I disperse the rest of my starches, meats, and fats throughout the day. I ha...

Sometimes I just crave a grilled cheese dipped in tomato soup - it's a comfort food from when I was a kid. Wintertime plus being sick last week just had me really wanting this lunchtime favorite. How can you make it but not have all the fat? Well, if you choose the lower sodium tom...

Today is our last day of school. Typically on this day I'm blogging about all the sugar that pours into the classrooms and the kids are on a sugar high. This year that is not the case. Any type of food has been banned in our school district unless it's approved by our administrator...

The amount of eating is excessive around the holidays, isn't it?! It sure does require a lot of will power! Our food festivities began on Saturday and don't end until the day after Christmas! We have some kind of event that centers around all the delicious dips, beverages, cookies,...

I apologize for being so sick the past several days. Whenever I have the flu it takes me a while to recooperate. This morning I went to church with my Mom and then we went out to lunch. It is just in the past week or so that my son has begun throwing tantrums - I mean the kind...

Every morning I drive by an elderly lady that stands at the end of her driveway, smiling and waving. Rain, snow, or shine she is out there bundled up and waving her little heart out. It melts mine everytime I see her. How kind to stand outside and greet all the people that pass by?...

Wintertime is the worst for packing on the winter weight. My husband would be the first one to tell you this. I don't know what it is about the cold weather but it increases the amount of sweets he eats and the exercise begins to decrease. He renewed his Jenny membership for this v...

Yesterday I mentioned we went to Skyline Chili for lunch. This, of course, meant that I looked up the menu and nutritional facts before we left. I was all set on getting a salad and ordering a grilled chicken wrap (no ranch/no cheese), eating only half of it. But, then I noticed fo...
