Easy Chocolate microwave pudding.....
I wanted chocolate pudding last night and though this wasn't that low in calories it maybe could be. I used what it said and figured up for 4 ~5 oz. dishes it's about $152 calories using 1% milk. It satisfied my sweet tooth. http://www.food.com/recipe/super-fast-and-easy-microwave-chocolate-pudding-335601

One cardioligist believes it was because of strenuous exercise. There is no way to tell for sure, but I just started my 3rd month abd am…

How many calories do you eat?

Is romance taught/learned or instinct and do all women like
I'm just pondering because my husband is not romantic AT ALL and it drives me crazy. So I'm just wondering if there was something in his youth that could have been done differently. Also, do all women want romance?
