As a truck driver, I spend more time at truck stops and rest areas than “normal” people. And while there are differences in rest areas from state to state, obviously they were designed to serve some basic purposes…
If you’ve gotta pee, pull in here, we have toilets. Please don’t water our plants with your biohazard waste materials.
If you’re hungry, we’ve got snacks. And if the machine takes you’re money, there’s no one here to handle it so we’ll just keep the extra funds for our roads… sorry.
If you’re tired, get your sleepy ass off our roads and get some rest. We don’t wanna clean up any more road kill from our roads.
Several weeks ago, I decided it was time to make hot wings. Not that I had ANY idea how to cook them mind you. But I REALLY like them. I was REALLY craving some. And I REALLY didn’t wanna go out to get them!
This is how I decide what’s worth my time to learn how to cook.
I started searching through Pinterest and found a recipe on FifteenSpatulas.com for Crispy Baked Chicken Wings. They looked really crispy and definitely cooked like you’d expect hot wings to be done.
I bought a plant yesterday. For those of you who know me well and are aware of my severe lack of a green thumb, you may think I’ve lost my mind. I haven’t (that I know of).
I bought it for a couple of reasons. One, it’s Mother’s Day and I wanted to get myself something special. And two, in theory, they’re easier to take care of than a live animal.
As I mentioned yesterday, I recently ordered low carb bagels from Netrition.com. I like using them because the prices are typically lower than what I find at Amazon, and they have a flat shipping rate of $4.99 no matter how much I order.
Today, I was looking at online prices for Russell Stover Sugar Free candies.
I’ve been eating low carb for a while (I signed up for a 90-Day Low Carb Challenge) and people in that group are always looking for good places to find things that are low carb AND tasty… they’re not always easy to find.
So, a couple weeks ago, my mentor (and low carb friend) mentioned that she had ordered some Great Low Carb Bread Company bagels from Netrition to test out the flavor, as well as whether it would make her stall (for you carb-eating folks, that means you stop losing weight).
Do people who live in Palm Springs look forward to non-windy days so they can go a day without wind blown hair, like people in Phoenix look forward to a…
How sad is it to realize that, at my age, I have NO idea how to tell if I’m actually hungry.
What I DO know is that it’s time to figure it out if I wanna stay healthy and not gain weight every year, just because I’m a year older!
First, there’s the “I want something, but I have NO idea what!” kind of hunger.
It’s not a good idea to let flies into your home. It’s an even worse idea to let a pregnant one in!
I can’t begin to explain how much fun it is to get up, go to the kitchen, raise the window shade, and have 20 flies head towards your face to say good morning!
If you don’t want your kids and grandkids to become an obesity statistic or spend their adult lives fighting their weight….
Stop making them clean their plates and stop making them eat because “it’s time”.
It’s “time” when they’re hungry!
