ZESTI I AM GETTING READY TO GO TO THE KITCHEN AND MAKE A NEW DISH, I PLAN TO CALL IT APPLE AND CINNAMON STRIPS, SO FAR IN MY MIND I HAVE 4 INGREDIENTS , APPLES, CABBAGE,CINNAMON OR PUMKIN PIE SPICES, I PLAN TO CUT THE CABBAGE IN THIN STRIPS

THEN STEAM THEM IN A STEAMER BAG AND THEN ADD THEM TO MY APPLES COOKING ON TOP THE STOVE, I WILL HAVE MORE INGREDIENTS BEFORE I AM THROUGH.

HEADING TO THE KETCHEN ZESTI . TTYL NEEDWIFE

I HAVE A RECIPE FOR ZUCCHINI APPLES. YOU START WITH A LARGE SQUASH AND PEEL THE GREEN SKIN OFF (YOU CAN USE THE PEEL IN A SMOOTHIE IF YOU DON'T LIKE TO THROW GOOD VITAMINS IN THE GARBAGE) THEN YOU CUT IT LENGTH WISE AND SCRAPE THE SEEDS OUT AND SLICE THEM INTO MOON SHAPES.
THEN YOU BRAISE THEM IN 1/2 CUP OF UNDILUTED FROZEN 100% APPLE JUICE CONCENTRATE OR MORE IF NEEDED. SEASON WITH CINNAMON AND APPLE PIE SEASONINGS. YOU WOULD SWEAR YOU WERE EATING FRIED APPLES! WHEN I HAVE MY OWN KITCHEN I MIGHT TRY THE CABBAGE STRIPS BRAISED IN THE APPLE JUICE MIX. LOVE IS COOKING IN AN LDL KITCHEN.

[needwife]

I MIGHT TRY THAT , IT SOUNDS GOOD, GOING TO MAKE MY GUMBO TONIGHT, GOOD STUFF.

NEEDSWIFE..WILL YOU BE CHANGING THAT TOO HASWIFE SOON?..LOL
I AM ON MY WAY TO THE KITCHEN NOW TO PUT TOGETHER THAT CABBAGE AND APPLES "STUFF"..I ALWAYS HAVE APPLES AND CABBAGE IN THE HOUSE. I HAVE NEVER ADDED CINNAMON TO IT..HMMM SOUNDS GOOD TO ME.
WE ARE TAKING THE BOAT OUT AND I NEED TO BRING MY LUNCH. I ALREADY HAVE THE GRILLED CHICKEN AND WILL NEED A SIDE. BOATING ALWAYS MAKES ME HUNGRY! I LOVE ME SOME CABBAGE!
I HAVEN'T DONE THE "CABBAGE STEAKS YET, BUT I WILL. CABBAGE, GARLIC AND EVOO. WHAT'S NOT TO LOVE!! THINK I WILL COVER IT WITH A GREAT BIG FAT JUICY PORTBELA MUSHROOM..YUMMY!!

I JUST FINISHED MY MEATLOAF YESTERDAY EATING 2 MEATLOAF SANDWICHES ON CORN THINS FOR LUNCH. I WASN'T HUNGRY THE REST OF THE NIGHT. I WENT TO BED EARLY AND UP SINCE 4:30 THIS A.M.
SO, WITH THE BOAT TRIP, IT'S GOING TO BE A LONG DAY. I AM GOING PREPARED.

I AM WITH YOU -REGARDING THE BELOW- HAVING THESE BOARDS REALLY HELPS ME TO STAY ON THE SKINNY BOUND TRAIN..

ALL WEEKEND I RESORTED BACK TO MY OLD WAYS... ..IN THE STINKING THINKING.."IT'S JUST THIS ONE WEEKEND. WHEN I GET HOME I WILL GET RIGHT BACK ON PLAN" ..SO I CLEANED THE HOUSE OF ANY NOT LDL YESTERDAY WHEN WE GOT HOME. NO, I DIDN'T THROW IT IN THE TRASH. I ATE THE LAST OF THE SNICKERS BARS... THEY HAD BEEN HIDDEN IN THE FREEZER BEFORE WE LEFT...
NO MORE HIDDEN STUFF...


I STAYED AWAY FROM "SWEETS" BUT ATE BISQUITS AND GRAVY BAGELS WITH CREAM CHEESE. THE NEW PUMPKIN FLAVOR BAGEL..WASN'T REALLY THAT GOOD EITHER

OK. IT'S OVER..IT'S A BRAND NEW DAY...HERE COMES THE ROASTED CHICKEN...YEAH..AND WALKING...

I WISH THERE WAS A LITTLE PILL I COULD TAKE TO REMIND ME HOW I FEEL WHEN I EAT THE WRONG FOODS AND EAT TOO MUCH OF THEM.

NOTHING TASTES AS GOOD AS SKINNY FEELS. WHEN I HAVE ENERGY TO DO THE THINGS I WANT TO DO, CLEAN MY HOUSE AND ENJOY RELAXING, I CAN FIX MORE HEALTHY FOODS.

LIKE JAMES BROWN, "I FEEL GOOD, NANANA NA NA"

LIFE IS A SONG, SO SING OUT LOUD AND LONG. (THAT'S ME SINGING)

[needwife]

There is a little pill, it's a little green pill, they are called peas, eat then and you will get all the knowledge you need. LoL

Ttyl NEEDWIFE

[needwife]

[omalani]

THANK YOU. THAT'S WHY GOD MADE PEAS ON EARTH.

SERIOUSLY PEAS WOULD HELP, I'LL MAKE IT A POINT TO EAT THEM INSTEAD OF
BINGE EATING! I LIKE FROZEN PEAS ON MY SALADS. I ALSO LIKE PEA SALAD.

LIFE CAN BE "PEAS"FUL!

[needwife]

LoL, that was a good one. LoL
