  1. Sometimes heating them a little will help. Just try a few seconds in the micro, perhaps on a damp paper towel. Let me know how they turn out. Some work, others don't
  2. Wow, it got up to a temperature of 10C, or 45F today It was so warm it turned our driveway to mud. So we are parking at the bottom and walking up. Oh the joys of snow/mud season It won't dry up now until all the snow is gone. But I did enjoy the lovely warm day. It was such fun playing with all the puppies today ... I was going to post them on...
  3. Oh I do love this thread!
  4. I can't remember where I got it from, but as I grew up on the North West (wet) Coast, it's really suitable. If you don't do all the fun things in the rain, you don't do them at all And yes, I don't wait for the storms to pass in our lives either, it's much too short to waste time.
  5. Thank you very much but my birthday is not until the 18th. I don't know why it said march 3rd but I changed it back to the 18th oops. But thank you are the first person to say happy b-day this year. LOL

  6. Thanks for this Autumn! It gives me an idea of what I may be looking at, and it's always a good thing to know something before hand. I weighed in yesterday and didn't loose any weight this week However, I didn't gain any either, so guess that's okay. Then I was very bad and pigged out yesterday But I'm back to behaving myself today. I think I...
  7. This thread is a Riot! I still know where all the handy bathrooms are, but I too can eat before I go out ... what a pleasure that is! Yup, I'm one of the Poop freaks
  8. I love popcorn It's low callorie and loads of fiber.
  9. Dessa, I'm so sorry you lost your friend. Anger is a very normal reaction and part of the grieving process. When I've lost someone I love, I try and think of this little verse I found somewhere. On the heavens in Shining stars On the earth in Tender Flowers The ones you love will live on forever. Hang in there, we are all thinking of you.
  10. All white rice is gluten free if it doesn't have a sauce mix or spices packaged with it.
  11. Hi everyone; Kathy, I can't believe we are sitting here with still a foot and a half of snow and it's 72 degrees at your place I need a crying icon on here It's been a busy day here today. Hubby and a friend have been busy installing a water treatment system in the house. We have been boiling our water for a couple of years, so it's going to be...
  12. The gym would be great if you had a friend to go with you. However, for me it's too expensive and too far away, so gas would be too expensive too. We do a lot of walking, I have small weights at home, I train dogs in agility, and we golf in the golf season. I find at my age, that's about all I can handle
  13. Hello Cottage Soul, welcome to our group Do you have a first (or second) name that we could use? Diets are hard at the best of times, but winter is harder because you really can't get out and stretch your legs with all the ice and snow. And of course all the veggies and fruit are more expensive in the winter. Summer you can just go out to the garden...
  14. Hi everyone; I didn't manage to get on last night, so missed yesterday's check in. Hi Kathy, welcome to our little group! The more the merrier I know what you mean by the night cravings. I seem to be really good during the day, but in the late evenings I'm always hungry. And I'm not supposed to eat anything two hours before bed time with acid reflux...

    Are you in the US or Canada, they are slightly different.
  16. Hi everyone; It was a very long day in town today, left here at 9AM and got home at 5PM. Crazy. Anyway, we got a lot done, had coffee with an old friend and got my doctor appointment over with. He really was a nice guy, but I'm more comfortable with the doctor we've had for the past 25 years. However, he will soon be retiring, so guess I should...
  17. Good advice! Relax and things will happen as they should.
  18. Liz, isn't it the truth ... un-posed pictures will do it every time! I've seen a couple not so flattering ones of myself in the last year. Both Sheba and I are on a diet .. I've got some un-posed pictures of her too And she's not any happier than me to be on a diet. I have a doctor's appt. in Nelson tomorrow. My doctor is still away, and I hate...
  19. Is it my imagination, or are we getting more men joining us on the board lately? It does seem so, doesn't it?
  20. Oh Patti, that sounds so good, I think I'll make one later this week. Does it fit into our diet? Or do we have to eat tiny amounts and have salad with it?
  21. Wow Patti, I almost missed this! I hope your Birthday was really super!! What did you do really special?
  22. Okay, housework is all done, a person must burn off a few callories that way I hate housework Also managed to get into my sewing room and work on the doggy tote bags I'm making for the Kennel Club raffle. That's a fun thing, so that cheers me up We had an extra long walk today. We can now all walk on top of the snow! Yippee! Sheba has been...
  23. I have a pancake mix that used club soda, so perhaps that's it. It works really well.
  24. Liz, hubby isn't gluten free, he eats tons of gluten, but other than the one knee he is perfectly healthy. He has never in all his 69 years spent one full day in hospital. He spent a few hours there one time when someone ran into him and totalled the van. He ended up with some painful spots, but thankfully all were minor. I'm sure glad the change in...
  25. Hi all! Autumn I'm so glad that you are feeling better! And it's great to see Diana and Shannon back too We spent the day in Trail today. It's dog day at the mall ... that's when the Kennel Club takes our dogs to the mall and educates in the different breeds, what they're bred for, how to groom and train them and how children should approach and pet...
