Yesterday we had to run an order to the post office to get it mailed quickly. So we took a quick trip to our local Walmart to pick up a few things. One of our favorite flavors of ice cream is Moose Tracks made by Hershey's. Hubby wanted to buy a treat and that's what he chose but not Hershey's, they had Turkey Hill's. He asked if it would bother me if he got it as he knows how much I loved it. I told him no it wouldn't. But when we got home and him and my son took it out and started eating it BEFORE...

This week I have been revamping my diet. Getting tired of the normal eggs for breakfast and a piece of meat for supper. So I spent some time researching here for some outstanding recipes........of which there are many! For the first time yesterday I made the cauliflower that replaces rice. And it does! Looks like it too. I am thinking this morning I will brown some in a frying pan for a replacement of home fries. In fact, hubby and I had discussed it when I started eating this way last December...

The One Minute Muffin or better known as OMM comes to the rescue. I eat it with my eggs all the time. I cut it in half...

To be honest, I wasn't as bummed out about my tomatoes getting the Northeast blight as I normally would have been. I think maybe it is a good thing. The reason being one of my favorite things to eat in the summer is tomato sandwiches made with real soft white bread and mayonnaise. Not exactly a low carb meal!
