If you are making them from scratch,trust me and try one f your jalapeños stuffed with peanut butter. It sounds weird but is delicious! One of our older restaurants here does them that way and when I started making them, I turned them into bacon wrapped pb jalapeños,

I've got a busy day ahead. We have to run something to my brother where he works then we will pick up the girls at 11. Then we run to the library where my SIL works to pick up Randall. We'll have them the rest of the day.
The weekend ahead looks somewhat relaxed. I'll need to get groceries Sunday for Christmas but other than that not much is happening. I'll probably not be posting again until after Christmas though. So I'm wishing all of y'all a wonderful Christmas and start of Hanukkah!
QOTD: What's y'all's plans for the your particular holiday?
We're doing a couple of roasts in the crock pot. One for BBQ and the other with potatoes and carrots. We will be going to Sam's to get brioche slider buns and some kind of dessert. Probably cookies and maybe an apple pie. My brother and his family will be over most of the day. I'll be making jalapeño poppers, doing French fries and my mom is doing something she saw on FB, calling it meat poppers. We'll see lol. The weather is supposed to be decent. High of 60° and a slight chance of rain, which we really need.
B: eggsL cheese and coffee
L: probably chicken and a handful of pretzels.
D: completely unplanned. Probably oatmeal

The surgery is not a miracle cure for poor eating habits. You will need to work with your center's team to learn the healthy eating that will made the surgery successful, not just in the short term but for life.
Real life begins where your comfort zone ends
I love snow, but mostly look at it from the window these days. I hate it when it melts and turns black from the stuff they put on the roads. After Christmas, I am ready for spring again.

It depends on the program you go with. Mine had a 10 week class, plus requirements around psych, nutrition and support group sessions. Others have been in programs they didn't have any of those type of requirements. Best to talk with your medical teams

Morning gang. Thanks for starting us, Jim. Nice, boring routine here. I love it. Food is on track. One more week til Christmas splurge.
This weekend is going to be cold. The low temp is supposed to be 6 degrees. My SIL is freaking out about her chickens.
QOTD: I like snow better than I used to. For many years I was responsible for shoveling four driveways. Being down to one is nice. And we're getting less snow these days too.

Good morning, everyone!
Today is my last train ride for 2024. I will go into the office tomorrow and Monday, but I'm driving both days: Monday because I will take DD to the airport after work and tomorrow because I have to get home early for a Christmas Party.
This is going to be a fairly regular day with calls and meetings, but I think that it will start winding down tomorrow. I expect Monday to be very quiet.
QOTD: Do you like snow? I love it at first, but I am ready for summer after a couple of weeks.
Breakfast: Protein Bar
Lunch: catered
Dinner: meatballs
Have a great day, all!
