It is a scientific fact that calories don’t count on your birthday.  I should know, I just proved it.  Despite the massive amount of calories consumed this weekend, I managed not to gain any weight!  I even went down half a pound.  Seriously, this is quite a feat, I feel like I ate my way [...]

Happy birthday to me,
happy birthday to me.
Happy birthday to meeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!
Happy birthday to me.
Oh, um, it’s my birthday. Happy big 2-6 to me. I am officially in my late twenties now. My sister-in-law told me 26 was the hardest year for her. I am not having any problems with this new age. I guess when your [...]

I am kind of late posting this, but I just had to announce…  WE DID IT!  Our dinner challenge is complete!  Remember about two and a half weeks ago when I told you B and I weren’t going to eat out for two weeks?  Well we did it!

Luckily, we had some friends over Saturday night.  [...]

Sunday, B [...]

Remember when I was drooling on my keyboard sharing with you my love of Nutty Bars?  These goodies are my favorite Little Debbie snack so I try to find ways to work them into everyday conversation.
Well, guess what?!?  These wonderful peanut butter and chocolate treats come in 100 calorie packs!  Basically all that means is [...]
