Bacon du Jour

July 12, 2010

Homemade Yogurt?

July 12, 2010

One of my goals is to become as eco-friendly as possible over the next two or so years. I don’t want to be a crazy hippie or anything, but want to make small changes to my life that are fairly easy to follow through with. As I was packing my lunch today I was proud of my reusable lunch bag, plastic containers, bamboo silverware, and reusable snack bags. But I cringed when I placed the container of yogurt in the bag and thought, “I wonder if I could begin making my own yogurt?”

New Knowledge: How to Enjoy Yourself at a Timeshare Presentation

July 12, 2010

Last week when my boyfriend and I checked into my own hotel, The Golden Nugget, we were pulled aside and offered free show tickets or free gambling/food money, for sitting through a “one-hour” presentation on an “up and coming” new resort.

July 10, 2010

Yesterday was my first day on Nutrisystem and I was actually very surprised with what I was required to eat.  It was a ton of food!  In fact, I would actually argue that it was more food than I normally eat.  However, the type of food I was consuming was much, much different than what [...]

The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner

July 10, 2010

While on vacation this past week I had time to delve into Stephenie Meyer’s new-ish novella, The Short Second Life of Bree Tanner. I read the Twilight series about two years ago and while I definitely wouldn’t say the books changed my life, I really enjoyed reading them. I haven’t read any of Stephenie Meyer’s [...]

Nutrisystem: The Box

July 3, 2010

I received my box from Nutrisystem last week and it was a bit more than I was expecting! That’s my pup, Bacon, standing next to the box and at a slight 12 pounds he just doesn’t compare.  This box was a monster weighing in at 40+ pounds! When I opened up the box this is [...]
