Once a year, I treat myself to a Costco pumpkin pie.

Oh yeah... I totally forgot about the knee pillow. That's the only one allowed to be foam.

Total Princess and the Pea here. Stoopit dear European down that MUST be properly fluffed and placed IN ORDER amongst lesser down.

I make my own ketchup along with my own salsa and taco sauce. The ketchup has some salt and sugar, but I use it sparingly once in a great while.

I just bought that Costco 7.5 qt. Gourmia on sale for $40 USD. Can't wait to try it!

I canNOT have ice cream in my house. Were I to buy a box of 18 ice cream bars at Costco, 10 of them will make it home and the rest will be gone within an hour. A large gallon tub will be gone in under 48 hours. The worst thing is that I will obsessively think about it every waking moment until it is gone.

Hi. Kinda OK. But it wasn't a good idea to buy Halloween candy on the first day of October. 🍫 🍫 🍫 Jus' sayin. :# 😭

My fully stocked and crewed luxury yacht with satellite communication system and air conditioned tender craft. The next person can have my other four things. :D

In the U.S., I love my top of the line Stearns and Foster. They are pricey, but come with free delivery and a 90 day trial.

My fave summer drink: Not at all healthy - chilled filtered coffee, Hershey's syrup, Kahlua and milk over ice. Oooooh!

Sad, but true. When I struggled loading heavy things into my truck, no one would help or open a door for Heavy Me. After I lost weight, I had all sorts of help.

True. Anyone who backs into a parking space had my endless admiration.

Thank you! I love the suggestion to first freeze them without wrapping. I haven't heated one up yet, so I will try the damp paper towel method when I do.

I believe writing in cursive really does activate different and perhas previously dormant portions of the brain - just as does reading a book as opposed to watching media passively or listening to classical music instead of repetitive THUMP THUMP THUMP pop songs. Not sure how long the effect lasts, but might as well take…

Elderly folks get a pass from me on returning carts. Many use the cart for stability and support. The able-bodied have no excuse.

1. Peach Betty with monkfruit replacing the white sugar, I still add a bit of brown sugar to the oatmeal to the topping and use butter spray instead of melted butter. 2. Frozen peaches as fodder for my Yonanas Machine.

I make homemade yogurt and once in a great while, it'll turn out a bit runny or grainy. When that happens, it's Overnight Oats Week. Home grown wild black raspberries from the freezer are my go-to, but sometimes it's chopped dates or prunes. Granola on top.

How they speak about their parents or exes. RUN AWAY from any man who doesn't adore his mama. Think twice about a gal who doesn't love and respect her father. Leave skid-marks getting away from anyone who paints their ex as the spawn of Satan.

I have no idea what tall flower this is, but it blooms every year and sho' is purty.

Tis the season! This is 48 hours worth and I ate four! I still have last year's pickles, so I won't make any this year. I only have three plants this year - but dang! How's your garden doing?

I struggle mightily with not only work schedule, but with heaps of free delicious food available at work. I do great at home - getting in exercise, eating fresh garden produce and carefully measuring out every gram that crosses my lips. Then I go to work with a wildly varying schedule and people circling about offering…

Never experienced any supernatural phenomena, but I did work on two of those "haunted" places TV shows. The best gag was a rigged line strung across a snow covered garden and zinging a heavy multi-tool across the line to ring a bell in the center of the garden. The line was then pulled and Voila! - the "ghost" rang the…

Unequivocally, it is not the latter. :D What is your household situation? Who is buying the food? Do you share mealtimes? Go out to eat often? Do you keep less than healthy foods in your house? "Support" will probably hinge on your current situation and your wife's daily challenges. To me, support would be someone who…

I too crave a sweet something after every meal - even breakfast. I keep a big bag of Medjool dates in the fridge and have one or two after a meal.

:D The fuss makes me think of those sticky patches for the soles of the feet that were supposed to detox your entire body. I figured it was just a recipe title like Quaker Vanishing Oatmeal Raisin Cookies. Whenever I would make a batch of those, they would surely always vanish, but then reappear on my thighs. :s With the…

Yonanas "ice cream" !!! 1.5 medium frozen bananas + berries. Weirdly doesn't taste at all banana-y. ~180 calories.

I feel the same way about my Yonanas Frozen Treat Maker. I just scored a great deal on bananas which are now all in my freezer along with berries and other frozen fruit. I like the Yonanas since refreezing isn't necessary. It comes out of the machine at perfect ice cream consistency.

That's EXACTLY how mine became a single serving! I should add that it was more of a daily serving since I didn't eat the whole tub in one go... but just long enough to restore the displaced freezer items before they thawed in the fridge. I'm nothing if not efficient. 🤣

That's what the Yonanas was built for! It is exactly like ice cream. Right now, I am picking about a pint of wild black raspberries every day. I freeze them and throw a handful in with the bananas. So good!... and without the 1900 calories in that "single serving" of dark chocolate espresso. ;)

MMdoesV! Those 100 calorie cups would be a pile of empties in under an hour. Ice cream is my kryptonite. There can not be more anywhere in the house. 🤣 I know this, but once every year or so I get ice cream amnesia and bring some home. Happily, a great sale on bananas along with a daily 8 pint of fresh picked berries has…
