OK, the phone totally rings during the last question and I decided to be lazy and leave it in. It was a wrong number anyway. Oh well.

I Published a Cook Book!

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

I've recently discovered the amazing combination of cheese and dried cherries. I know, it sounds weird, but seriously… good! The other day I smeared some Laughing Cow Light Swiss on Cucumber slices and then topped with a cherry. It was a fun, sweet twist on standard cheese and crackers. Well, cheese [...] -
If I was a good blogger this idea would have been published BEFORE the Super Bowl not during it. I made these today to have a little fun. Surprisingly, The Husband liked them even though he didn't eat more than one. Why? Because he's strange like [...] -
If you read my weight loss blog you know I'm battling a bit of back and neck pain right now. I'm starting to feel a little better but those first few days where rough. Being the head chef of the household, this meant we ordered in a couple of times. I'm [...] -
I'm LOVING Pinterest! I can just scroll all day long looking at food photo after food photo. I wish I had more time to peruse! (I'm RoniNoone there by the way?) The other day I pinned a Portabello Mushroom pizza and was immediately inspired. It's such a simple idea and so light. [...] -
The other day I found myself craving an Orange Julius. Are they as popular as I think they are? Growing up we had an Orange Julius at our local mall. It was always a treat for us at the end of a family shopping trip. Once I was old enough to be [...] -
So I'm a little breakfast nutty at the moment. Little Bean LOVES eggs and I find myself cooking them more and more. This morning I decided to go super light (after last nights chocolate overload) and it was totally satisfying for just over 100 calories! The trick to making [...] -
A few weeks ago I saw Chef Michael Simon make a raw kale salad on The Chew. He sliced beets up real thin and cut the kale into ribbons. Then made a vinaigrette out of red wine vinegar and olive oil. I was immediately intrigued. So far I've only [...] -
I've had this idea for a quick creamy chicken dish for a few days now. It was time to give it a shot. The whole family LOVED it. I'm not joking. The only complaint came from Little Guy who declared his hate of mushrooms yet again BUT he ate everything around them. Fine [...] -
I made this on a total whim yesterday as I had leftover avocado after feeding the baby and leftover Spaghetti squash cooked from the weekend. I roasted the squash to serve with my Chicken tips instead of potatoes and it was AMAZING! Anyway, I'm getting sidetracked. So I'm sitting there staring [...] -
It's post holiday season. You know what that means? Leftover Crescent rolls to experiment with! Every year for Thanksgiving I buy a few canisters. It's the only time I do as I can't be trusted around them. Let's just say I'd beat you in the How-Many-Crescent-Rolls-Can-You-Eat-In-One-Sitting game and leave [...] -
Last week the kids and I tried parsnips for the first time and I've made them 3 times since. I wanted to figure out the best way to roast them. Yeah, that's it, the best way to roast them. You'll buy that right? Right? The truth is, I'm obsessed. I found myself [...] -
Yesterday just felt like a good day to stuff an acorn squash. I had one sitting on my counter for quite some time and it was just begging to be cooked. Since both husband and child don't like it I made a solo meal just for me and, well, it was DELICIOUS! [...] -
I bought a fennel bulb on a whim for the holidays not knowing quite what I would do with it. Of course I forgot about until yesterday when I was rummaging through the fridge trying to figure out what I wanted to make for breakfast. I pulled it out and stared [...] -
I probably should have warned you I was taking a holiday hiatus. I've been soaking up every moment of family time imaginable these last few days, leaving no time for anything else. Not even blogging! Shocking I know. ;) So I return not with a new recipe, per se, but to [...] -
Here's a quick idea for when you find yourself with a spaghetti squash but don't quite know what to do with it. Come on. Admit it. That's happened to you too. It's sure happened to me! I roasted this squash on Sunday... [...] -
I'm not sure if this will be a crowd pleaser, but I liked it and thought I'd share in hopes it inspires you to have some fun with kale. I loved the combination of sweet pear, earthy kale, salty bacon bits and creamy hummus. The only issue with the wrap was [...] -
I'm going on day 2 of counting Weight Watcher Points and I'm already inspired to come up with light, healthy meals for myself. It's like I needed the constraint of points to motivate me. Isn't that weird? Anyway, all morning I was brainstorming what to make for lunch. I wanted something flavorful [...] -
I have a friend who patiently cleaned, peeled and cubed a fresh pumpkin and then selflessly gave me some. Scratch that, a TON! I would have never even thought of doing something like that! But now that I have it in my fridge the ideas are flowing. First, I roasted some [...] -
CHRISTMAS COOKIES! YAY! Sorry. I'm so excited! Little Guy and I had tons of fun making and decorating cookies today. It may just be my favorite part of the holiday season. I loved it when I was a kid and now I get to do it with my own kids. [...] -
This may be my simplest idea yet, but it was so tasty and satisfying I had to share. Plus you guys know I'm a Laughing Cow Community Leader so I'm all about sharing fun ways to use their products. You guys may also know how I feel about pausing and making [...] -
I made this on Thursday. THURSDAY! I hate when I can't post something I've eaten within 24 hours. It just bugs me. Not sure why, it really doesn't matter when I post it, does it? Anyway, I did whip this up to cure a pizza craving and I couldn't be happier. [...] -
It's been awhile since I jazzed up a tilapia fillet. I've breaded them before, coated them in oats, flavored them like one of my favorite drinks and topped them with a fun salsa. It was time to bring nuts into the party. You are going to think I'm crazy but I've [...] -
Fun leftover turkey idea #2! Click here for leftover turkey idea #1. I had a little Gouda leftover from this years Harvest Salad and decided to put all the same flavors from the salad into a quesadilla. I just can't get enough of the smokey gouda/sweet craisin combo. It goes [...] -
It's the day after Thanksgiving and my refrigerator ROCKS! I have leftover turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, roasted Brussels Sprouts, a bunch of veggies and tons of miscellaneous fun stuff. I've already made stock from the bones (like this) and my first batch of soup, Classic Turkey Noodle. I hope to share [...] -
I'm so sorry I've been slacking in the Thanksgiving recipe department. I feel like a bad food blogger. Everyone else is posting festive ideas and here I've gone missing for a few days. Maybe it's because I'm not doing anything special for Turkey day. I finally got my holiday cooking [...]

First of all…skip the blackberry and get an iPhone 3G. It is wonderful. And it will work well with your computer :-).
Weight Watchers has a Weight Watchers Mobile for those who subscribe online. It should be able to be picked up on a blackberry. I use it on my iPhone. It will track your points and it has a mobile point calculator. More information is available on their site.
I can also totally understand the whole secret dieting thing…I sit in an office with 3 men at work. One of them and I are kind of like brother and sister. We pick on each other a lot. Anyways…after restarting and recommitting to the program 3 weeks ago I started taking a lot of 0 pt and 1 pt snacks. One day he had the nerve to say, “You’re eating again? I thought you were trying to lose weight…” Anyways I went straight into defensive mode and probably ended up being a little rude and harsh. I picked up my baggy full of celery and cherry tomatoes and said, “Yup, there is a LOT of fat in my snacks…I better watch out!” Then he asked what was wrong and I let him know that if he did not understand the plan I was following he should not comment. I am sure I could make assumptions about him just the same way he did but I am not like that.
Sometimes I really wish people would mind their own business…ya know?

roni you are hilarious!!! you always make me laugh =D. i think it’d be cool to do an intro/exit thing for your videos…reminds me of rachael ray and her signature “hi i’m rachael ray and in the time you watch this show, i’ll have made a delicious meal from start to finish” (or something like that).
but anyway…the negative comments question totally resounded with me. i really do wish others would realize how one little comment can be HUGE for someone. i guess this is typical for parents, but whenever i came to visit from college basically the FIRST thing they would comment on was my weight, whether i had lost it or gained it. that became my main motivator: to always hear a positive comment about my weight when i visited, and i avoided/loathed visiting home whenever i did gain weight b/c i just couldn’t stand it. but now, i havent so much been affected by my parents’ DIRECT comments than other peoples’ indirect comments that suggest my over-weightness, which make me freak out. ah, comments are just hard to deal with and hard to not DWELL over, even though the commentor probably forgets about it a few seconds after saying it.

Comments made by people who are ignorant of the program are one thing. Some of them just can’t help but make silly comments. It’s when they won’t listen when you try to explain it to them that’s frustrating. There are always going to be those who choose not to learn, and we just have to realize that and can’t let them bring us down.
I’m curious to know how this morning’s run went for you. I’m starting week 5 of the C25K tomorrow, and the end of the week brings me to a 20-minute run. Enjoy the rest of your Sunday!

Those comments are aggravating, aren’t they? Some people just can’t help it. Have to keep in mind what I can change (me) and what I can’t (other people).
Roni, Hi girl. As always a great video.

I hate those comments, the ones I hear are more like. “are you pregnant?” and I am not. I am only 5 ft tall though so even 5 pounds overweight shows on my frame. So I am constantly trying to add activity so that I will be healthy and have a good weight for my body. What bothers me even more is hearing comments made toward my hubby, I don’t like it when others say things to him that are offending!
