Pimento Cheese, Not Your Grandma's Spread

Pimento cheese is one of those foods that has been so corrupted by the food industry that it has become synonymous with other crappy foods like Spam.  I'm not even certain what store bought pimento cheese might contain, nor do I want to find out.  It's a shame because pimento cheese can be a delightful treat, even if it does Read the full post…

Plum Good BBQ Sandwiches

In a few days it will officially be fall but the temperatures are still warm enough for me to continue swimming for a few more days.  The breeze was a little cool but that didn't stop me from swimming several laps this morning and I felt great afterwards!  Have you exercised lately?  With fall's cooler temperatures and fewer insects, you Read the full post…

Disaster in the Kitchen

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on December 1, 2011 ]

Just so you know, not every one of my dinners goes smoothly or turns out great.  Now some of you may find the following story funny, but it’s not funny to me yet, maybe in another week or two it will be.  If only I’d had the presence of mind to take photos. Last night Read the full post…

After The Indulgences – Lisa’s Bean Soup

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on November 29, 2011 ]

Well, how did you do over Thanksgiving?  Did you keep your eating down to a reasonable amount?  Did you exercise any?  I was pretty successful on both counts and I must say I felt really good about not being bloated on Thanksgiving night.  I’m learning to eat enough to make me happy, not sick.  Believe Read the full post…

Well, if you were curious to know how the Heritage free range turkey turned out, here is the official report and pictures.  Since the turkey was very expensive compared to the frozen Butterballs you can get everywhere, I was somewhat nervous about cooking it.  However, I have Alton Brown to thank for my last two Read the full post…

Yesterday I took my dog Molly for a walk.  The wind was pretty fierce and the temperature cooler than it had been but we both enjoyed the walk so much.  I had such a good positive feeling from being outside in the fresh air and looking at Mother Nature’s handiwork.  Sometimes I don’t think mental Read the full post…

Mediterranean Quinoa Salad

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on November 15, 2011 ]

I advised getting ready for the holidays on my other blog by exercising and eating better so you won’t fall into the plus side and you know what I mean.  The plus side is the dark side of health and there is nothing good on the dark side.  This time of year is full of Read the full post…

Examples From The Tube

[ Post by Lisa Tedder ][ Post on November 10, 2011 ]

I love to watch Good Morning America while getting the kids ready for school and then while I exercise every morning.  I’m addicted to the news.  This morning while huffing and puffing away, I saw a piece on a man who has lost 200 lbs. since January.  He weighed in around 370 and his wife Read the full post…
