Red, White and Blueberry

I realized a couple of weeks ago that swimsuit season was just around the corner. However, my scale was not very empathetic to that so, I figured it was time to loose a couple...few...several pounds before that time comes.

My family loves dessert but they are not crazy about fruit. I had this fat-free, calorie-free, cool whip at my mother-in-laws house over the weekend. We had it over strawberries and my husband actually liked it! Her secret is to shake a little sugar (or sugar substitute) over the strawberries.

First, rinse and pat dry all the fruit. Hull your strawberries and slice them in half. Sprinkle sugar over strawberries and let them sit for a few minutes. Add your blueberries and strawberries to a dessert cup.

Add 1 scoop of whip topping. Next, add more fruit on top of the whip topping, in layers.

Finish by adding 1 last scoop of Cool Whip to your fruit.

This is a delicious low calorie dessert! Can't ask for much more than that! Mix it up and throw in some kiwi or bananas. Enjoy!

Girls Night Out

It was my friend Gigi's birthday so me and a few of my girlfriends decided to take her out for a drink to celebrate. We decided on D'Vine Wine Bar right here in Cypress. The ambiance was fabulous.



The food is really good! I have had the cheese fondue before and it is delicious.



If you decide to try D'Vine wine, here is a tip. Select a bottle of wine over the flight. You do get to try a few wines but I would just find one you like and share with your friends. The Wine bar is great for a special occasion or just catching up with friends. Enjoy!

It's a Southern Thing

Fried pickles...my son has been begging for fried pickles. My deep fryer broke a while back and I decided it was probably a good thing. A good thing for our physical health but certainly not for our mental health. Home fries just didnt taste the same. 

So, I decided on this Presto Kettle Cooker. It has multiple uses other than frying. It is small, which makes it easier to clean and less oil to use.

This was a little after school treat for him. Boy, was he happy!

Biloxi, Mississippi

A Love Affair

I am having a love affair with these Gucci sandals! Actually, the magazine page that the sandals are on. If only, if only, I had a place to where them!!!

These magnificent specimens are from the Gucci Spring Fashion Line. They would certainly put a spring in my step.
