And the worst part-well yeah other than looking like a tangerine-was that it had advertised that it would last for 7 days-and no they weren't exaggerating!!

ahhaahahaa! I remember that!!! what a horrible experience for you though!!

Verdict...Handsome!

You are quite the chef! you and cody need to compare notes!!!

You should do the grated cauliflower(why cant i spell that word-its like cinnamon!) and have 'rice' with your stirfry!

I always wanted to try that cauliflower but didnt want to buy a ricer!

As I predicted, the washing of coats has led to a forecast of 4 to 6 inches of snow tomorrow. I bow to the Russians for bringing us vodka....

I've got the varnish with the little white strips that help you paint the white bits, looks great when its done.

Oooh must get frech helper strips.....bad girl, do those toes! My french teacher once said, your feet should look like cherries beautiful enough to eat

I'm going to have a wonderful day today. I think I'm stalled from all the dang cough/cold meds I've been taking. . cough syrup. .is just. . well. . SYRUP!! I don't know what else to do. I have such an unproductive cough and it kept me up half the night.. so I slept on the couch .. well. . tried to sleep!!! My head is clearing up so I plan to get my booty in gear. . did I mention its SNOWING. .here!! Ugggg. . I wish it would stop. . .

Mucines is nothing more than the cough supressant ingredient dextromethorithan.......and it's expensive! Read those ingredients and get thee a cough med with it in there.

Seem like its the only one that stops the cough and puts me to sleep. and you only need 1/2 teaspoon, not 4 TB of Nyquil. If you cant get the codeine, try 2 shots of patron!
My cough was a dry one last night. I think Ive been sick for over 3 weeks now. TOday I can breathe though and the pressure in my head is gone!! TOok my Claritin D and nasal spray.

Hope you feel better soon IM2!!!! Snowing out?!!!! Good day to curl up on the couch! Make some turkey/chicken soup, and dont forget to add a splash of hot sauce!!!

or you could do that...much more fun while sick!

OK. .so I'm thinking I need to plan a trip to Disney before my babies leave the nest. . if anyone has pointers, let me know. This is going to be a once in their childhood trip.. we haven't been on vacation in years and none of us (except hubby) has ever been on a plane.. I'm escared!! Plus I have to be able to afford it. . It is amazing how the price jumps when you mention 4 kids!! OK. .gotta get some work done. .

OM, BION there is a guide for Disney-just google Disney for Dummies and you will come up with loads of secrets.

For me-the opposite of brown-i find St.T too orange. I only use it if I have a bit of a colour and then sparingly, and nowhere near my hands or feet. I can blend fake tan well-years of practice! Seriously, used my first one when I was 16 in school-Rimmel shimmer! i like Fake Bake the best. But I use the everday fair skin one. A lot of the time in winter too, it takes the milky glow away! Then for the Summer I use it a couple of nights-hands and feet. Then when I've built up a colour i use the normal one, again like St.T-everywhere but avoiding feet and hands and def the face! That way I don't really get the awful tee-tale fingers from fake tan!
Now! See, I could write a PhD thesis on the subject!

ye could! I thank you for all the money saved finding out the hard way!

I bought cauliflower yesterday so I could make a make cheesey mash today. When I used to do Atkins, I made a great pizza with a cauli base. Tried grating it once but I don't think I did it right it was too watery...

My daughter, absolutely raved about it! It was good. Not sure how a Stilly version would measure up? Less cheese and I love cheese but will prob give it a try this week...maybe make a meat feat version to up the legal proteins.

[Getting there!!!]

Just watched the final of The Biggest Loser UK-OMG the weight they lost was unbelievable! Like 5 or 6 st (70 or 80lbs)in 21 weeks!!! The winner lost 34%of his bodyweight and the runner up lost 31%. Peeps, I think it mite beat QWL!!!
Makeme, did you see it? I was for Will and Paddy(obviously, cos Paddy is irish! He!) i was sooooo happy that he got the holiday! And he just looks a completely different person! His jeans waist size went from a 44in to a 34in!!!
They were so inspirational!!!

Yeah, i've seen it a few times on the recipes-looks good! You could use low fat cheese for Stills! I reckon tho you need some cheese to bind it!

No. I did watch an episode or two but could not get into it...don't know why?? That is a lot of pounds though!

Can't remember what I used before but I am sure there was egg in it...be great if I could save all the cheese for the topping.

Your already up and at em!!! You must be feeling better- I hope!!!



So, I hopped on the scale today and it gave me some bad news. Up 2 - 140. I knew I shouldnt have gotten on the darn thing. Not changing my stats though! I've been doing the same old thing. Coffee, CL, Chicken (but I did add hot sauce the last 2 days)

I know from experience that the scale flucuates. So newbies, dont get discouraged if this happens to you. Just keep going and you will be presently surprised in a few days with a big whoosh! (at least thats what Im hoping for)

Come on Peeps! Lets rock this!!!

[aleriaaa]

Hi CC!!!! thanks for always makin us smile!!!!!!!

Thanks Al...nothing serious...laying the law down with my young son (11). He knows that I'm a softie and pushes the boundaries sometimes, but I have decided that he is at the age where I really need to put my foot down, for his own good you know...so he is confined to his room for the rest of the day and I have removed all the little "luxuries" like games and stuff for the next week (I already limit week time play). What most annoyed me is that other half did not back me up as much as I would of liked because I am afraid he is also a bit into Xbox...I warned him that’s why its called the Xbox, lol...if he is not careful, he will soon end up one.

[aleriaaa]

Where are the girls??!! Hope all is well! .... and what happened to BASS?


Becky!!! Whats going on? Tell msgirl we're thinking of her!!

My hubby is an xbox junkie too!!!

Im trying hard to start early and lay down the law now!!! It so hard sometimes to back up my little threats, but the little ones need it or they will walk all over us in their teens. Raising my voice doesnt help, and I dont like to anyway, so I found that taking away the toys is the only thing I can do. Works on my son, but my daughter could care less. She'll sit on her bed and look out the window and be content, she is so stubborn. If I threaten no snack, that doesnt even work on her. She's only 4 so the timeouts dont last long.
