Tuesday morning I was headed to daycare with my son. I had a horrid cold, and was in a terrible mood, but when I got to the parking lot I saw a big Breyer’s Ice Cream truck, and was happily trying to point it out to my son. As I did so, I turned too [...]
The other night one of my best girlfriends came over with her daughter for a Mommy & kids playdate. I don’t get home until about 6pm so I had cut up the fish in the morning before work, covered the strips in the buttermilk and put them in a plastic bag in the fridge. When [...]
It’s an extra post today – to test out my new lighting. My husband gave me a quick photoshoot tutorial, and I set up my new backdrop and light. I think it makes a lot of difference. Hope you enjoy! Pasta with Peppers and Sausage courtesy of Weight Watchers website serves 6 WW points: 6 [...]
It seems that my Sundays have turned into a “get everything done before another week of work starts” day … instead of a day of rest. I have load after load of laundry to do (and it’s not the doing of the laundry, it’s the folding and putting away that drives me nutso). I had [...]
On Saturday after swim class I took my son to the farmer’s market. He loves running around and helping me pick out veggies & fruit. I think it helps get him interested in eating his fruits & vegetables and trying new things. I received this recipe in an email last week and I thought it [...]
This morning I was planning on waking up at 5am. I wanted to have an extra half hour to start some laundry, update the blog, maybe do some ab work, and get ready for work. At 3am I woke up and started thinking about what my lightest outfit was that I could wear to work [...]
Thursday night I was running late getting home. I called my husband ahead of time and had him take out a bag of frozen tilapia fillets to thaw. I love tilapia. It’s an inexpensive fish that is mild in taste and you can serve it a million different ways. I found this recipe on Allrecipes. [...]
The other day I was looking through Cooking Light magazine and saw an advertisement for Cacique. They are a family owned cheese company and they posted a few recipes. I went to their site and found this recipe. I changed the ingredients a bit, to make it more Weight Watchers friendly. I served it with [...]
I’ve been following this email subscription from Cooking Light that promises healthy meals to make in 20 minutes or less. This one looked delicious. However, it was about 9 WW points for one sandwich. I thought that was a little high, so I used fat free Greek yogurt instead of full fat, and reduced fat [...]
One of the things I love about working is the people that I meet. As you can imagine, I end up swapping recipes with most of them. I have the best Chicken Curry recipe from Shalini, as well as a great Indian noodle recipe. What I loved about Shalini is that she didn’t eat meat, [...]
