  • Recipe Snub Soda This Summer
    Snub Soda This Summer (1 vote)
    Soda has come under fire by national health experts as a major contributor to obesity. A zero-nutrient beverage that offers little but sugar calories (a 12 oz can of Coke Classic contains 140 calories and 10 teaspoons of sugar), it is well digested[...]
  • Recipe A Is for Avocado
    A Is for Avocado
    ...B is for banana, C is for cucumber. Now that Jake knows the ABCs tune, we love to make up silly songs. With avocados singing in my head, I decided to revisit this super fruit. Even though it's not sweet, it's classified[...]
  • Recipe Taking Out the Tart
    Taking Out the Tart
    I'm more of a veggie than fruit person but come spring and summer, I get mad cravings for fruit! Nothing is better than juicy, naturally sweet fruits but what you get in the store can be a guessing game. To salvage those[...]
  • Recipe Build a Bumper Sticker
    Build a Bumper Sticker
    I know this is going to sound like one big ole' ad, but I like to mention products that are unique and useful. Most times when companies contact me to promote their products, they're on target with my blog theme. Other times they're not the right fit[...]

    New Cheese on the Block
    I'm not a fan of commercial diet programs that entail lots of money to eat their food, but many provide one-on-one support and tight structure, which some dieters need for success. So admittedly they do work, at least to get the weight off[...]
  • Recipe Lean Cuisines Not So Lean?
    Lean Cuisines Not So Lean?
    Click on this image to watch the Today show segment I have to say how continually impressed I am with the media, specifically how they can generate so much hype over nothing. The latest was a Today show investigative report[...]
  • Recipe Highs and Lows in Low Country
    Highs and Lows in Low Country
    Last week we headed to low country for summer sun in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. As if we weren't getting enough with Boston's recent heat wave! Must be my New England stubbornness in bearing weather extremes that would make me want to trek into[...]
  • Recipe Get Svelte with a New Energy Drink
    Get Svelte with a New Energy Drink
    I think of ?energy drinks? as either sports drinks with lots of calories and caffeine or nutritional metallic-tasting drinks like Ensure, neither of which I need enough in my diet to pay anywhere from $2-4 per bottle. If I were to create my ideal[...]
  • Recipe Review: Al Wadi Lebanese Restaurant
    Review: Al Wadi Lebanese Restaurant
    I haven't reviewed a restaurant in a long while, partly because I'm trying to save some cash but also because I've been trying to save some calories (lots of birthday cake celebrations lately!). I've been eyeing Al Wadi since it opened though because[...]
