So here's the deal....

Obviously, the knitting is few and far between. I've been restling with the whole "this is a knitting blog, not an everything in my life blog" so I just don't post much anymore.

Well, I've decided to hell with it. If you come here for knitting content, sorry, but if not, I'm just going to post a little bit of whatever.

With that being said, here goes.

I've been doing the Weight Watchers thing. I really like it. I've lost a little over 20 pounds so far and more importantly I've changed some eating habits and my kids are eating healthier. I exercise usually 5 days or more, and I feel a whole lot better.

I bought the Hungry Girl 200 under 200 cookbook and if you are looking for low-cal recipes whether or not you are a WW follower, this book is for you. I love it. I have made the cinnamon rolls (3 WW points each) and they are fantastic. Low calorie and reduced fat. And full of yummy (as evidenced by LittleMan scarfing it down)

I also made the cheese sticks out of the book (forgot to take pictures) and they were really good. I was super skeptical at first, but they were really great. (and almost guilt free).

I also used one of HG's favorite techniques (fake frying in the oven and using a Fiber One breading) and made chicken strips/nuggets. They are great. My food processor wouldn't process the Fiber One as much as I would have liked, but I bought a new one yesterday, so that problem should be fixed. I also had steamed veggies and an onion/pepper skillet mix that was great. The whole meal was around 4 points. YUMMY!

I have also made some awesome brownies that LittleMan LOVES that I'll have to tell you about next time.

We also spent some time outside today....

And someone got their first trim. :)

Hope you enjoy the new format. Have a great Memorial Day weekend.
