What's on your Saturday menu, RNYers?
QOTD: I've always wanted my own garden, but I know I would kill it within a month. I grew up very close to my maternal grandmother and she always had a large healthy garden. She always let me help her in the kitchen with canning and cooking but that's where she drew the line with me. HAH! I remember so many times being scolded for eating all of her good tomatoes off the vine. LOL I couldn't help myself, beefsteak tomatoes fresh from the vine are one of my favorite things to eat! She had to shoo me from the garden so much that I never learned how to care for it. Bummer!
I've planned a safe menu, but weekends tend to be busy with all of the grandkids home from school, so I'll just hope for the best. :D

Just noticed that our stats are pretty much identical! I'm also 4'11 and in maintenance I swing between 114-118. I'm happier on the lower side and wish I could swing between 110-114, instead, but I'm okay where I am :) Have you tried shopping in the kids section yet? The same exact cotton t-shirts are literally 1/2 the price. Coats too. It's awesome!

I'm 8 months and 1 week post op. I'm not sure where my weight will settle yet, so I refuse to buy anything. I'm also hoping to settle near the lower end of 110-115. :D My daughters constantly fuss at me to wear clothes that fit, LOL!
Thanks for the heads up on shopping, I know for a fact I can wear a girls size 14, LOLOLOL. I put on a pair of my 9 yr old neices pants at Christmas and they fit almost like they were tailored for me. I laughed all day.

I'm 5'3" and can't wear kids pants, but I can wear kids jackets and tops. I bought my winter down jacket and several fleeces at LL Bean in the children's section for WAY less than the women's prices.

OMG -- you are so tiny! As my mama always says, "your about as big as a minute."
I don't know why I envisioned you as taller?!
