http://www.eat-yourself-skinny.com/p/recipe-box_27.html Www.Canyoustayfordinner.com http://undressedskeleton.tumblr.com/Recipeindex These are my other favorites besides skinny taste. I get lots of great recipes and meal ideas from them and as an added bonus they are interesting blogs, too!

I love Target swimsuits. They are cheap enough that I can buy a bunch of different tops and bottoms and mix and match. I also get a lot of mine from VS, but I feel like some are pretty cheaply made for the price. Still cute though. I just bought this one piece from Target and can't wait to wear it. So cute!

I read this article yesterday and completely agree. Great advice!

But will doing this workout make me bulky? Maybe I should just use 1lb ankle weights... I used to do the "Phoebe run" when I would jog with my friends in college, so I am not above Prancercising through a park. I think I will try it out this weekend as a surprise for my husband on our daily walk :laugh:

:smile: :smile: This book made me laugh so hard! I love Tina Fey :smile:

No kids of my own, but as a teacher I could write a book from all of the funny things my students say. Some of my favorites: I taught a second grader who was so sweet and kind, but had an uncanny ability to make the most innocent things sound dirty. For example- We were on a field trip to a wildlife center and they were…

I just finished Gathering Blue and Messenger by Lois Lowery... They are follow up books to The Giver. (I am a teacher, so I read a lot of kids books/juvenile fiction) Currently- Room by Emma Donaghue. Really great book! The Book Thief is next on my "to read" list. I am so excited because I heard awesome things about it!

I just asked for this book for Christmas and can't wait to start reading it! Glad to see others enjoyed it so much :smile:

Agree with Tolstoy. One of the best. I have so many that it is hard to narrow it down to "The Best", but a few other favorites of mine are: “I am doomed to remember a boy with a wrecked voice – not because of his voice, or because he was the smallest person I ever knew, or even because he was the instrument of my mother’s…

I dip pickles in ketchup. I don't think it is strange, but I always get comments and weird looks when I do it.

Do you have a bread machine, or are you going to do it by hand? I have a bread machine, so I make homemade bread all the time and love how easy it is! I use allrecipes.com for most of my bread recipes. They have a ton! Read the comments to get tips and adaptations from people who have already tried the recipe. All that I…

Green smoothies are great. I also just bought a juicer to try and get more of the healthy goodness of leafy greens. I know that juicing doesn't give the fiber of a smoothie or eating the vegetables, but I like that I can drink the juice and get double-triple the nutrients than I would eating them. I also add as many…

I hate being cold when I workout, but I also hate wearing a lot of thick or heavy clothes when I run. I really like Under Armour Baselayer ColdGear as well as their Thermalwear because it keeps you warm without adding a lot of bulk. My parents have an Under Armour outlet by near them so I always stock up when I visit them,…

I am a teacher (4 years classroom experience) and have been a full time graduate student for the past 3 years. My first year of teaching was a terrible experience, and I was exhaused, both physically and mentally) every day. The first year or two in the classroom can be so challenging and exhausting and I can relate…

[/quote] I can't even imagine doing this. Wasn't there an old movie based on that? Rock Hudson or something? Monica [/quote] Doris Day and Rock Hudson in Pillow Talk! The whole movie was about their connection from a shared phone line...basically Rock Hudson was the original man to use technology to create a false identity…

Here is a marinara recipe taken from the blog fashionable foodie. It is so good and I love using fresh non-processed ingredients. fresh tomato marinara sauce 8 big garden tomatoes, or 10 romas (must be garden fresh. no blando supermart tomatoes! if you must, use a couple big 28 oz cans/quarts of tomatoes.) 1/2 onion,…

Great job Sandy!

This is a fool proof way to cook brown rice. Alton Brown's baked brown rice from foodnetwork.com. I use it and it comes out perfect everytime! Ingredients 1 1/2 cups brown rice, medium or short grain 2 1/2 cups water 1 tablespoon unsalted butter 1 teaspoon kosher salt Directions Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Place the…

This! It really works :smile:

Although I am a bit older than you, I can sympathize completely. When I was in college, we went out every night. I would offer to DD when I didn't want to have 100's of empty calories from drinking, which by my senior year I ended up being the DD almost every night. Not only are you saving yourself calories, you are being…

BWAHAHAHA!

Cottage cheese is good Unless it is on my thighs Guess I should go run This thread makes the English teacher in me very happy :flowerforyou:

This sounds very scientific and should be made into a Wiki page immediately. Thank you for explaining half starvation mode to me as I now understand why my right hand is larger than my left. PS...If I find any of your ribs, I will notify immediately. It is a shame to be missing something that is vital for so long. Best of…

Found one for you.... you're welcome

My husband and I are rocking this the next time we hit up the gym together :wink:

I can't wait to try some of these recipes!
