What's on your Tuesday Menu?

Good Morning! I hope everyone had a great start to the week. Mine was good. Not the quiet day I thought I would have, but it's the end of the semester, so I think it's going to be pretty fast paced until graduation. I am heading into the office today…

What's on your Monday Menu?

Sorry I have spent 30 minutes trying to upload a photo and it's not happening. Hello and Happy Monday! I am pretty sure there is nothing on earth that is simultaneously as cute as annoying as waking up to a cat?s fuzzy paw smacking you across the face. Good morning,…

Interesting Medical Journal Study - WLS & Interpersonal Relationships

I just happened to run across this medical journal article earlier today. We have all seen talk on here as to WLS, despite the great positive physical effects it produces for us, promoting post-op divorces and other disruptions to our social lives. Interesting conclusion (and kind of predictable), but I…

Good Sunday morning, what’s your plan for the day?

THIS! LOL. I don’t usually follow recipes to a T unless they are baking and it’s my first time trying it. But every single cooking show seems to have this issue. All I really watch is PBS cooking shows though. ATK is pretty decent but a lot of recipes call…

What's on your (PHOTO) Friday Menu?

Good Morning! The event last night went off with no issues. They moved it to a super secret location and so even though the protest did happen, it was on the other side of campus so I never saw them. I assume it was a peaceful protest because we have…

I may not have enough money to get my planned plastic surgery !

I?ve been trying to buy my home outright from the bank as it?s crazy damaged and my mortgage and taxes are outrageous. Unfortunately they appraised it as far higher than I possibly imagined so even if we CAN make this deal it will probably mean I won?t have any money…
