Feta, Feta….no time to rest
Well, the feta spread mentioned previously was delish — but, predictably, I was the only family member who liked it, so I have spent the better part of this week eating feta on EVERYTHING.. For the record, it is really good in an egg-white omelette with wilted spinach. Loved it on Gardenburgers and [...]

Considering there was some fast-food wrassling this week, I will take my miniscule victory and move forward.
Costco, how do I love thee? Let me count the ways…..
Lord help me, I love Costco. How can this be? I don’t shop there exclusively because the amounts are ginormous for a family of four with picky eaters. There are other [...]
My little reward…

For every 10 pounds I lose, I knit myself something pretty. The first 10 pounds are lost, and I’m not looking for them! The sweater is complete and on view at the knitting blog.
The Lazy Garden ‘07
Posted in grow your own on May 19, 2007 | 1 Comment »
We like to grow vegetables every year. We are pretty lazy about it. I use no chemicals, I mulch like crazy, and rarely weed. We get pretty decent produce output without much effort. This year, I have staggered my lettuce plantings to get a continuous harvest. I started in mid-April by planting lettuce, radishes, kale [...]

I didn’t realize how much I was “eating on the go”. Trying to sit for every meal and snack was more challenging than I thought, but it is getting easier. My ultimate goal is to learn some new habits that will help me to stop eating when I am full. Somewhere along the [...]

This week I am working on sitting at the table to eat my meals. It is harder than it looks. I have taken to writing SIT, Y or N next to every meal and snack in my food diary, then I circle the answer after I eat. I think today will be an all Y day – [...]
6 Minutes of Sanity
Posted in Uncategorized on May 13, 2007 | Leave a Comment »
Only 6? I will take what I can get. I enjoy a little motivational podcast called The Reasonable Diet’s 6 Minutes of Sanity. It’s hosted by Sandra Ahten, an author and diet coach. It’s subtitled “for the I-know-what-to-do-I-just-don’t-do-it-crowd” – that’s me!
I thought the recent episode, Advice to a Mother, was excellent. She gives advice to a [...]

A Moment in PEA History
Last night, SonofPicky ate some chicken that wasn’t a nugget. I roasted a chicken, seasoned with a little sea salt and some of the Northwoods blend from the [...]
I need to spice up my life.
Posted in food tips and recipes on May 9, 2007 | 1 Comment »
Yeah, I need more spice like I need another hole in my head, but I found Penzeys online anyway. Oh. Yum.
I had used the Parisien Bonnes Herbes blend on roasted potatoes and chicken for years and had finally run out. I thought the prices were good, so voila. I paid 15 for all that, shipping [...]
