Cholesterol Meds!

I am so happy that my husband has been given the okay to stop taking his cholesterol meds! Yay! He’s still on blood pressure meds, but we’ll be working on that!

What a difference healthy food and losing weight can do!

My Best Baked Bread!

Oh this new batch of bread is my best so far.

100% Whole Wheat with sunflowers and caraway seeds. Scrumptious! Even better toasted with a little bit o’ Olivio spread. Yummmmy.

Complusive Cravings

I am soo thankful I made it through last night’s compulsive craving of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. This AM, I had it for breakfast, and I am hoping it will be a better day. I am proud of myself for holding strong, because it would have been so easy to just give in and slip back.

Avocados

Yum, made my first homemade avocado guacamole this morning. I can’t wait to eat lunch!

Baked Bread

Even though it was like 80 or 90 ° today, I baked whole wheat bread. I’m still new at it but it came out very good.

I did burn the top and the bread got stuck in the pot, but I am grateful that most of it could be salvaged and it tasted great! Yum! I’m going to get better at it too!

No failures, only lessons!

Guacamole

I tried guacamole for the first time tonight. It was absolutely fantastic, and now I am going to have to make it all the time. yum.

Wolfgang Puck

I love when it’s Wolfgang Puck weekend on HSN! He’s a hoot to watch even though I don’t purchase anything!

The Smell of Fresh Basil

oh I just adore the smell of fresh basil. I bought a little basil plant at Whole Foods today. It’s smells heavenly in my kitchen!

Muffins

I am so grateful for the willpower to say no to muffins at work!
