Wha-da-ya-do?

Whatdoyado when you get the hungries? Since I no longer live a mile from anything available to choose from I will write a solution. DON'T KNOCK IT UNTIL YOU HAVE TRIED IT.

I shouldn't be eating anything I want to eat. I am doing a pretty good job of choosing better things for ME. I have lost 10 lbs. since April. I need to lose at least 10 more.

Back to the subject:

My refridgerator is nearing empty. Tomorrow will be a Marathon Shopping Trip to Costco. Meantime, I needed something sweet. Solution:

1-1/2 lowfat yogurt
several raisins
palm full of Pinion nuts
tablespoon of ground almonds (good for us we are told)
splash vanilla
sprinkle of nutmeg
1 pink package sweetner. (not gonna buy anymore of that, NOT good for us we are told)

I can't remember if there was anything else in there, now it is all gone and my sweet tooth is satisfied and I may do that very thing again.

Stuff & such

Just put this picture on there to remind myself that someplace in the world it is cool!


I finished my crocheted jacket/sweater. It doesn't fit me. No surprise. I have already started another in different colors. That one fits Becky (MC) ((middle child)) I wanted to take a picture of it and her but she decided that the dress she was wearing did not look right with the sweater. Summer dress, winter jacket, go figure! I will try to get her to model it today and take some pictures and post them tomorrow.

Oh boy! Am I happy the Olympics are OVER, OVER, OVER! Becky just about wore me out. The first week I tried to go to bed before they all left after they also wore out but I couldn't go to sleep even with ear plugs. I finally got used to them being in my house and was able to go to sleep. Either that or simply exhausted.

I have an arial on the top of my house and that brings in several channels way out here in my desert but MC and OC chose not to have one. OC receives a channel or two and MC has no TV reception, also their choice. The grands are here occasionally on a Sat. to watch cartoons and seldom, very seldom are the children of mine ever here to watch anything else. Only UA ballgames once in a while or every 4 years for the Olympics. I guess I can handle that. When the TV reception converts to digital, I may have company only when I invite them to dinner..........JUST TEASING!!
