    Roger and Kel.....hope you feel better....UTIs are a pain. Antibiotics should fix you up.
    I had a good day. Fun shopping with my daughter this morning and out with friends for the afternoon/evening. The winery was nice. Just went a little over my limit and will be fully back on track tomorrow.
    Roger, I really like petunias and marigolds. We haven't bothered getting any roses at our new house. My husband bought some sedum today. I didn't get any new flowers for my pot....maybe I'll do that tomorrow. I did exchange my lamp kit, and the piece in this one is good, so hoping to wire my lamp tomorrow. That'll be fun.
    Get a good night's sleep, sweet dreams. :)

    Hi all.

    E, I'm glad you had a good day and that kit is good

    Kel and Roger get well soon!

    We'll see how good my resolve is. I have a ham and pineapple pizza in the fridge. Had to order delivery yesterday. 1/8 is only supposed to be a couple of hundred calories. And to think I used to eat a whole one every week or so and not gain weight a few years ago.

    Have a good day

    Good morning!
    Lynmar, I've never had ham and pineapple pizza, but I do love regular pizza....it's been years since I've had any. I make little pizzas out of light English muffins or Sandwich thins.
    I put my little lamp together this morning... it's cute. Kind of a rainy morning here. Not sure yet what I'm going to do the rest of the day.
    Happy Sunday, everyone. :)

    Happy Sunday Everyone
    We have been outback creating a raised planting bed. It is something my Brother thought of. Green metal posts with wire fence on them and lined with weed prevention fabric and Plastic edging along the bottom for extra strength there. We shall see how it works out for durability.

    Cheers

    Hi Lyn
    You would not have to worry about me eating that pizza on you. Hawaiian Pizza does not tempt me. Extra cheese, or Bacon or Pepperoni or real slices of sausage (Not those crumbles so many use) or even Hamburger that would be a different story.

    Cheers

    Hi Vix
    I used to buy the little $1 pizzas at the dollar store to use as a lunch.
    Our $1 store near by has 4 ounce lean pork chops, Beef steaks, Chicken Breasts etc. I have been known to use those as a PF in the past.

    I actually do like the Shelf Stable and the Frozen NutriSystem pizzas so that has kept the craving away. Sometimes I use a PF of JD Turkey Sausage Crumbles or a LE of Precooked Bacon @20 calories or Real Bacon Bits @ 25 calories per serving as a topping.

    Have a Great Day

    Roger, that raised bed sounds like it's going to be interesting....quite a project!
    I have to be really careful with calories, so I use a little bit of salsa and some low fat shredded mozzarella on 1/2 a light English muffin or sandwich slim. They are about 100 calories or less that way. Have that with a nice salad and voila...lunch. :) Or on a hungry day, I can have both halves. :smiley:

    Hi
    That sounds interesting. I think I would just buy a small jar of Pizza sauce at the grocery store and use that however. I do not really use Salsa :)

    Cheers

    The salsa is less calories than tomato sauce and makes it a little spicier. Also has onions and sometimes peppers in it and no sugar. :)

    *sneaks in for a moment* feeling betterish... least no major pain like it has been. only taken two sets of advil today vs the set every four hours i've been doing the last few days.

    I'm in bed reading all this pizza talk and trying not to get up and have another piece. Lol Roger, at first when I heard about Hawaiian pizza I didn't think I would like it at all even though I love both ingredients but now I crave it. Actually my favorite is one with everything but anchovies or mushrooms. *Love* pepperoni and sausage. My favorite at Subway is BMT - salami, pepperoni and ham. Only 410 calories for a 6" :'(
    Have a good night

    Hi Vix
    If I said that is one of the reasons I don't use Salsa and never did is I am not a fan of Spicy. I threw out the NS White Bean Chilli when I tried it, way to hot and spicy!

    Hi Lyn
    Only 410 for a 6", I wonder what one of My Favorite Diner foods is? That would be a Grilled Cheese with Bacon or a 1/2 Pound Bacon Cheeseburger. I suspect pretty high :'(

    Good morning.
    Lynmar...I've never tried the ham and pineapple pizza either...just didn't sound like pizza to me...may be a good thing...I might like it too!
    Kel, how are you doing? Feeling a little better. Sorry you lost your big post....you need to catch us up. :)
    Roger, I love spicy food, and I was never a fast food fan, except maybe for pizza and tacos....now they sound really heavy. Never took my kids for fast food much either. I think they appreciate that now.
    Overcast this morning, but looks like it will be a nice day.
    Happy Tuesday, everyone. :)

    Good morning.
    E, glad you had a good massage.
    Kel sorry you lost your post. A few days ago I lost a big part of one of mine. Not sure how I managed that.
    Roger, we don't have that restaurant here. At least I'I've never heard of it. Sometimes to reward myself for a hard pt class I'll get Burger King's Spicy BLT Whopper. I certainly don't want to know the calories in that. It'It's surprising how my body is doing well despite that.
    Sorry for the errors. Can't get used to my tab and mess it up worse when I try to correct them.
    Today I go down to my vet. One of my cats has tooth problems.
    Have a good day.

    I tried to write Happy 100th on one of the vases I made for my mil's birthday, but the glaze kind of slid and the words sagged! I put a darker glaze on it today in a solid color and hopeully can cover it over with another firing.
    It's interesting trying to figure out what works and what doesn't! :)

    Hi Vix
    That was a good thing you did not getting them into the fast food habit.
    It has been a strange day as far as weather today here too. It was 68 at noon but the same channel was also saying it would get up to 81. It was wet outside this morning, then it dried off, the sun came out We got a bit of a walk in and then the clouds moved back in.

    Cheers

    Hi LynMar
    I suspect You are right not knowing in some ways. I used to Buy a Triple Whopper with cheese, Then salt and eat two of the patties plain and leave the third one in the Sandwich.
    I am afraid to go look and see what the calorie count was.

    Have a Nice Day

    Sorry you're so busy, Kel....at least you're starting to feel better. Sleep well. :)
    Roger...the weather was strange here too, the whole gamut. It would be nice to have a kiln, but I understand they're kind of expensive to buy and run. Meanwhile, I pretty much fire my things at the Sr. Center which is very low cost for me. They fire it up once a week, so it's not a really long wait. Plus I get to hang out with some fairly talented/artistic ladies. :)
    Have a good night.

    Hi All
    Vix: When it was no longer in use and he was selling the house he donated it to a charity that was very happy to get a nice kiln. They even came and picked it up from his basement. That was a win win since the real estate people told him to get rid of it and the old piano in the basement.

    It is a nice day here too :)
    I was out walking for a 1/2 hour around the blocks near the house. Not as energetic as it sounds as I am not a fast walker these days. My brother was either waiting for me to catch up or walking backwards to stay slow enough :)

    Cheers
    Roger

    A half hour is good Roger. I don't walk very fast either anymore. Waiting for this virus/fibroflare or whatever it is to calm down. It's nice going for slow walks on beautiful days, and I think it's excellent for our health, just to be out in the fresh air and sunshine.

    it's supposed to be cooling off here tomorrow and Friday, i'm looking forward to it :) today wasn't too bad, not nearly as humid as it's been so that was nice :) even managed to get home at a vaguely reasonable hour!

    office lunch tomorrow, heading over to Ruby Tuesday's so least i'll be able to get a salad :)

    hope everyone has a wonderful Thursday!!! :)
