Some real quick updates tonight as I have a date with the hubby. We start that puzzle and are going to play a little Wii. We’re trying to DO more things in the New year. :)
First, some how, and I really don’t know how, I got booked on two different Blog Radio shows tomorrow (1/5).
Radio show #1
At 10AM EST I’ll be on "GET REAL" talking about Fad Diets and Why they Don’t Work with by Brett Blumenthal
Click here to check it out.
Radio Show #2
At 3PM EST I’ll be chatting with Laura Lavigne Her show is called "Chez Laura" – Let’s talk about losing weight AND becoming a blogging phenomenon!"
Laura saw my story on CNN and asked to interview me on her show. It sounded so fun how can I refuse? :) Click here to check it out.
I like to talk almost as much as I like to blog so this is going to be super fun for me. :)
Other then the shows, I just wanted to tell you how much better I’m feeling. Getting things out of my head and onto the blog is my form of therapy. It ALWAYS makes me feel better. I think it’s a combination of getting it off my chest and then reading the comments and realizing I’m not alone. That’s why I started BlogToLose. Blogging is/was a big piece of the puzzle for me.
Here’s the menu today. . . I’m so glad I cooked over the holidays. I have SO many leftovers for lunch. It’s FABULOUS! :)

I Published a Cook Book!

What's Cooking in my kitchen?

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 [...] -
I just made a quick, tasty one pot meal the whole family ate without complaint! And when I say "whole" I mean WHOLE! The Baby, The Little Guy, AND The Picky Eater Husband! Here's the story…I was in NO mood to spend a lot of time on dinner. The thought [...]

I love the idea of doing a puzzle together. My husband & I are also trying to do more together this year, and have a hike planned for Wednesday!
I’m so glad your feeling better! Your such an inspiration to me and I look forward to reading your site everyday! We have survived the holidays. Back to all our healthy cooking. By the way, peanut butter vitamuffins are AWESOME! Banana flavor is good too, but try the peanut butter if you haven’t yet. Hope you had fun with the hubby!
date night is a great idea; that’s something we need to do more often at my house. currently i’m still hanging on through the holidays, we have one more this coming weekend! i’m afraid the one this past weekend was part of several days of not-so-great food decisions but that’s ok, i’m back on the horse :) thanks for stopping by my blog!
Hunni and are trying to play the Wii together more now. We have games we both like so this should be fun.
I’m going to try and check out those two programs. I would love to hear what you have to say.
Hey Roni, I’ve been woeful on the blog commenting front for the last few months but I hope to get back into it again in 2010!
So glad you are feeling better… you are a source of inspiration as always! Especially when you share with us about your funks. It makes me feel normal! :) As in I get them too not that you are weird and that makes me feel normal!!! (oh God I just need to stop typing right?!?!) :|
Your Salmon Parm looks good. I will have to try that on Friday possibly. The boyfriend it out of town. He does not like salmon or spaghetti squash!
P. S. I love puzzles. Yours looks really cool!
Can’t wait to listen! I noticed you ate some soy crisps. I was at Trader Joe’s a couple days ago and couldn’t find the soy crisps. I asked a cashier, and he said they discontinued them due to low sales. Boo! Where do you find yours?
NOOOOO I hope that doesn’t mean more will close up shop. There’s a local store by me called Giant that makes their own called “Earths Promise” I believe. That was the brand I ate last night. But I know Glenny’s also has some.
Oh a puzzle!!! I haven’t done a puzzle in forever! I bet if I got one, my husband would do it with me too! You have inspired me Roni! You inspired me to do a puzzle! ;)
I’ll try and tune in this afternoon if I can. How exciting!
congrats on the radio shows! can’t wait to check them out!
I love puzzles too! I have a second Elvis puzzle that I’ve been waiting to finish. Thanks for the reminder! :)
Great job on the radio today! I really liked what you said about making small, gradual changes and not letting one bad food choice destroy your day. I’m all for dedicated commitment to a “plan”, but not budgeting for wiggle room only ends in disaster. I like to plan my menus like I do our household budget: all of the “money” (food) is spent on paper before it’s used… I even budget for splurges. That way I can have the cookie without it ruining my day.
Good luck with the puzzle!
Congrats on the shows!!!
I also find that cooking makes me feel better. Or no, wait. I think it’s baking that makes me feel better. Even when I don’t eat the treats. Well, especially when I can say “no” to the treats.
You just rock… has anyone told you that lately? Fo’ real, my fav on the blog roll !!
Oh, no! I hope my favorite soy crisps don’t disappear …
I need to concentrate on not letting one bad food choice destroy the day. Even after all these years, i still struggle with that. I think it’s why I have such a tough time staying OP when I’m with the Boyfriend.
