Well tonight, I decided to splurge with some nice dessert. I bought a pint of Haagen Dazs Five Vanilla Bean ice cream the other day, and we made bananas with ice cream (and walnuts) tonight.
Dinner was vegetarian lo-calorie (2 oz wheat pasta with veggie tomato sauce) so it’s not too much of a guilty pleasure. [...]

Life is Good with Haagen Dazs
One of Those Days
Sigh, I think today feels like one of those days where I just want to eat eat eat. I haven’t really eaten much today, but right now, I just would like to devour a large pizza or a bowl of pasta! LOL
I did have a small bowl of walnuts and Stonyfield Cookies & Cream frozen [...]
Cheerios Aren’t What They Used To Be
Today Hungry Girl posted a question on her Facebook Page:
Anyone out there try Chocolate Cheerios? Whatd’ya think of ‘em?
http://www.facebook.com/HungryGirl?v=feed&story_fbid=266498302257
No surprise, of course, her loyal followers were gushing all over them! One naive woman even compared them to cocoa puffs, thinking they were healthier.
Are people really that stupid, or is it just laziness? Do [...]
Whole Foods & High Fructose Corn Syrup
I was shocked to find Lea & Perrins Worcester Sauce at Whole Foods store the other day! Did you know that Lea & Perrins contains high fructose corn syrup!? Yuck! What’s THAT doing at Whole Foods!?
It’s really such a shame. I suppose one could argue that you are using such a small amount, that [...]
Christmas 2009 Woes and Joys
Yeah, I didn’t do such a wonderful job on my food choices during the holiday, but it’s okay. I am back on track today (Saturday, Dec 26) and will continue to stay on track!
It was a bit scary, because I got a wake up call. It’s so easy for me to revert back to my [...]
What’s High Fructose Corn Syrup Doing In Cottage Cheese?
They didn’t have the Breakstone 2% cottage cheese I usually buy at the grocery today. I noticed a 2% pineapple flavor, but when I took a look at the list of ingredients, there it was: High Fructose Corn Syrup!!!
Why? Why couldn’t they just add pineapple and be done with it!? Makes me mad!
It just proves [...]
Hungry Girl – Fat Free Cool Whip vs Fat Free ReddiWip
Over on the Hungry Girl Facebook Page, Lisa Lillien recently posed a question to her fans:
Cool Whip Free vs. Fat Free Reddi-wip. A fair fight dessert topping brawl with a clear winner… Thoughts????
The answers weren’t surprising, but they made me sad nevertheless.
Let’s compare the ingredients:
Reddi Whip Fat Free: Nonfat Milk, Cream, Sugar, [...]
Halloween – And Not One Bit of Candy!
Good for me!
We went over to Mike’s sister’s place last night to be with the kids for Halloween. We also brought along the dogs, which was really fun!
Anyway, I am happy to report that I didn’t have one bit of Halloween candy last night! Wasn’t even tempted. I think it’s like when I quit smoking. [...]
Hunger Isn’t As Big of an Issue Anymore
Back a few months ago, I couldn’t get though a night of TV without chomping on snacks, sometimes all night long.
But now, I sometimes have to force myself to eat an evening snack, just so I can eat all my calories (it’s important to eat all your allotted calories for the day)
Does that sound [...]
Junk Junk Nothing But Junk
My husband went to a vending show the other day, and came home with a huge bag of snacks.
The only good thing about this was the bag itself. It was a large mesh bag that could be used for grocery shopping! LOL
In the old days, I would have been thrilled! I would have ate the [...]
