April 12th, 2008 · 5 Comments

Its been a slow process adding vegetables into my diet. I have always been a fan of the old standbys: lettuce, carrots, cucumber, corn, peas, broccoli, cauliflower. But not so much with onions, peppers, and the likes. So this time around on weight watchers I am doing my hardest to add in […]

April 1st, 2008 · 5 Comments

I found myself asking this very question just last week. I was going through the mail and came across the weekly grocery ads and noticed Kroger had it on sale. I realize the name does a pretty good job at telling me its not real crab meat but it doesn’t really say what […]
