It was only 29*F this morning when I got up. Brrrrrr I made the coffee, turned on the fireplace and jumped back into bed for a few minutes. It was nice and toasty when I got up the second time. I keep reminding myself, it’s cold back at the “old” home. The weather

How to Cook Trout

If you’re a fisherman or woman, you know the smell from miles away–it’s trout sizzling on the summer grill or baking in the oven for a warm fall or winter meal. One of the greatest aspects of the sport of fishing is that it can be done at any time of the year. Likewise,

My biggest problem in this weight loss journey is my snacking on unhealthy foods. I found a GREAT product with zero calories. No sugar added bread and butter sandwich stuffers. These type of picles are a new product produced by Mt Olive. They use splenda instead of sugar. I don’t

It’s still hard for me to believe I have moved to another state. I don’t know a sole. I’m not complaining. I enjoy my privacy. Perhaps that is because I worked so many years with the public. I didn’t like people looking up to me. I always figured I was

I think I tasted about every diet drink out there. My favorite is Lipton Diet Green Tea with Citrus. So often diet drinks leave a funny after taste in my mouth. This diet green tea is refreshing and leaves no odd taste in my mouth. Since I quit smoking over a year and half ago,

I haven’t been able to blog for the past two weeks because I have been up at my mom’s house. My husband and I have finally got the house ready for sale. All the walls and ceilings are washed. The only furniture left in the house is the bed we were sleeping on. The

I can’t believe all the articles I’ve been reading about easy, fast weight loss. Anyone that has lost or tried to lose weight, knows there is nothing easy about it. Most people have tried countless “Easy Weight Loss” programs. To me, weight loss is all about

Mom and I made our walk in the local park again yesterday. I walked a bit faster and mom was able to keep up. It was pretty windy and it made it harder for to catch her breathe. I was proud of her. I notice yesterday, she still has the directions hooked on the side of the cane.

I’m starting the year out right. I didn’t procrastinate. I bought my mom a cane the other day so she could go walking with me. We went to check out the park today. It really is nice. It actually has 3 different walkways with varied distances. We took the shortest

As each new year shuffles in, I become a year older. I wasn’t born on the 1st, but pretty close. I reflect on the things I’ve accomplished in the past year and look ahead to the things I want to do this year. I’ve started to journalize my food intake as well as my
