Challenge Accepted...

MFPers with pic of animal as avatar
Does anyone else picture the actual animal speaking the words of the poster's comments? Poster: "Make sure to use a food scale and eat back exercise calories" *licks paw* My brain: "That chubby cat made some good points. 'Thanks for the sage words, kitty. Who's a good kitty? You're a good kitty!'"

Isn't motivation/support a two-way street?
I see a ton of posts requesting friends, and I've been happy to oblige. After all, I need support too!

I'm bored
I am really having trouble being creative with my dinners lately for some reason. My fiance is out of town so it's just me in the house. I don't eat red meat or pork (I LOVE seafood) and I don't have a lot of prep time because I care for an elderly relative for most of the evening. I don't mind making stuff for the week on…

Under-Eye cream?
I've run out of my current facial moisturizer and I'm looking for an under-eye cream that will address dark circles and puffiness. Anyone have anything they swear by? Any home remedies I should know about? I don't really have time to put cucumbers on my eyes every morning :glasses:
