Vacation Walking Paths

Just a couple of the more interesting places where I've been walking the past few days!

I'm a black or white person.

When it comes to walking,
I either like taking different paths every day

OR

doing the same routine every day.

I go in streaks.  There are positives for both.

While on vacation this week, it's been different paths every day.

A Dieter's Best (Appliance) Friend?

I've been cleaning out the refrigerator in preparation for vacation. There were 11 or 12 strawberries left, so I hulled them, put them on a plate and stuck them in the freezer.

Later on, I popped them into the blender along with some 1% milk and (I sheepishly admit) a little sugar. Result? A thick and satisfying snack.

A blender just might be a dieter's best friend!

Even as I write this, I'm thinking of a few other Appliance Friends.

What Appliance Friends do YOU have?

Spring Fling Treat

I stayed within my calorie limit yesterday by sharing a Turtle Blizzard with my husband.  Yum!  A tasty combination of chocolate, caramel & pecans.  The only thing that would have made it tastier for me would have been to have it made with chocolate ice cream--but since we were sharing, I settled for vanilla.

Spring Fling

For the past 5 days, I've been spending 30 minutes alternating a walking routine with jumping on my mini-tramp.  Don't know why I always wait for a hint of spring to get serious about getting off the winter pounds!  Why do those pounds accumulate ANYhow?  Late winter was particularly challenging for me this year since I had a case of shingles.  That was NO fun.

It's in the past now. 

I've started my personal Spring Fling.
