Today was quite amazing, even with the unexpected events. But what’s a holiday without unexpected events?

Cookies and milk are far more compatible than cookies and husbands.

Every day is like the Twilight Zone in our house. Flash backs of my own Mom saying the exact same things that I say now…worried for the same reasons I now worry…smiling with the same full heart…I like my Zone.

Let’s face it, we all dread the scale. It’s been my friend and my foe.

This week it’s definitely been my foe. Lack of water intake due to tummy problems here and I gained five pounds in less than a week.

Ok, ok, I’ve heard it all before…it’s only water weight…but at the moment I feel horrible.

What do you do for bloating and water retention? Leave comments below telling me your remedies.

Drinking more water with a nauseated tummy is not a solution this week.

Sometimes life hands us difficult choices.

Every day is laundry day here. But today I came up with an improvement idea.

I definitely have baggage, but not the kind people think of when they hear the term.

Today I just wanted comfort food.. so this happened:

One bag of fresh yellow split peas. Pink salt, black pepper, diced ham and cut up raw bacon, onions and cover with plenty of water. Cook on low for 3-4 hours and enjoy.
