Whats on your Thursday Menu?

I only took two at a time. My school only offered up to 4th year Spanish, so after that, I switched to German (and continued with the French). I took all three my first year of college, though, because I placed out of Spanish and French. So if I took a 300-or higher-level class of each and got at least a C in them, I'd get 12 extra credits (for each language) for the semesters I placed out of....totally worth it since it meant skipping my sophomore year.

Good morning everyone! It's a blustery and rainy day in the PNW. I have a dental appointment this morning. Something is up with one of my back molars.

I was up at 12:30 this morning. I am thankful that I got back to sleep for a few hours. Why can't I just sleep through that night?

Food accountability has been off and on. Somedays, I am 100% and somedays, I eat all the things that I shouldn't. I am a grazer! I have got to get better and get my crap together.

QOTD/JB- I loved Home Ec. I also loved welding and woodshop.

QOTD/Chrissy- Remember Susan Powder?? The lady that was all about eating all of the carbs?? I liked her. LOL!

Food plan for the day-

Eggs and cottage cheese

I have a chicken from Costco that I need to eat on

Crab cakes. I am going to try a new recipe that doesn't have bread crumbs.

Has anyone heard an update from Janet?? Also, I have not seen Karen post. I wonder if they are somewhere with no service?

I have also wondered about Janet and Karen. Hoping Karen is just away from an internet connection.

I LIKED Susan Powter ( though she was the Queen of Obnoxious in so many ways lol ! )

She looks absolutely STUNNING today ...BTW .. the main reason she can't get back on TV ( but I'm not sure she cares .. she went on to enjoy a totally different life I believe )

( Cruising the world with a hott, attentive young guy is how it Started I heard somewhere - isn't that on all our bucket lists ?) I think she eventually got married and maybe had a baby too ?

You would NOT recognize her in person ... she looks THAT different . I'm sure there are pics on the internet.

She's living proof that you can TRULY remake your body and your life even when you're "older" and come from big numbers .

Good Morning and happy Friday-Eve! I've been too busy during the day this week to really follow the news much which is probably a good thing. Today is payday but I'm hoping it's much smoother than the last one.

I'm proud of you for giving your ankle time to heal!

Aww, thank you! You know it's so hard for me! I'm trying to give it the time so I don't prolong or injure it further. I'm really hoping bruising means healing.

Good Morning JB and Menuers,

Wow we are having unusually hot weather her for early November and I am loving it. It is supposed to be in the 70° all the way through the weekend. I am hoping we have this through Christmas. I feel like I live in California with this great weather.

I Have a funeral (Just the viewing) I need to attend Sunday. I was worried it would effect me having guest for the Steelers Dallas game but to my surprise it is a 4:30 game so I am excited I can have my bubble over for the game Sunday. It is the time of year I pump out Pumpkin Cheesecake. I made one last night to take the family at the funeral and I am going to pump one out tonight after the gym for my Sunday Gameday guest.

Willing to share the pumpkin cheesecake recipe?

Yes but since you asked I will explain. I waitress in my 20's and this was the signature dessert at the restaurant. I wanted the recipe so bad but the owner who was a dear friend really refused to give it out. One Sunday her wait staff was short and she was begging me to come in. I said if when I get there the recipe is on the bar I will work. I been making this cake ever since it was 1985 even before pumpkin was popular. Also they no longer make Zwieback toast so I use ginger snaps. If you can not read it or want it in a file just PM me your email and I'll send it.
