    Expectations.. it's all about expectations :) I expected it to taste awful ;-) Here is what I did: Cut the squash in half, brushed some olive oil, baked for 30 mins. When cool, scraped it out, added crushed peanut, olive oil, salt and lemon juice. Our kid (7 yo) didn't eat it. She said she...

    Spaghetti squash. I tried it last night for a dinner. It's a bit of work, but tasted awesome! Good substitute for a grain. Anyone tried it? Costco is selling two-pack.

    If he had to think a lot about how I will receive a gift, or I have to decode his actions, life would be very complicated ;-) I like to stay active, and he/ kids like to see me active. It's not just about the body. I still have XX pounds to balloon before hitting the max normal BMI for my...

    Kids are funny

    LOL! I volunteered in kid's school last week, and bonded a bit with kids during the field trip. This new buddy of mine, all of seven wanted to know more about me, and volunteered all personal information about himself. He asked, how many siblings do you have. I said none. He makes this face...

    FAT...SO...

    Set your macros, and increase protein intake- the suggested macros aren't that great on MFP. I did a 40-30-30, and then 30-40-30. Also, know what makes you gain. Sweets are fine with me, never have to worry about a brownie or a bowl of icecream, but rice is my undoing. You will know what you are...

    [Poll] To Ink or Not To Ink?

    But, in my house, my way or the highway.  :P Since my kid is older than yours, and I have the same policy as yours.. I will share reality vs projection result in a couple of years! I used to think I will say no to so many things when the girl was 2-3 years old, but as she grew up, I have...

    Simple changes: 1. Swap white rice with brown rice, and white bread with who wheat or double fiber. Keeps you full for longer. 2. Swap half off your carb (rice/ bread) with veggies. 3. Trader Joes has a huge variety of quinoa/ brown rice/ whole wheat pasta. 4. Quinoa - love of my life! 5...

    [Poll] To Ink or Not To Ink?

    No, but I would love to go initial only- he shares it with the kids, so no harm done just in case.. I agree with bones, I would rather just get some carbon.

    [Poll] To Ink or Not To Ink?

    Henna every now and then. I do my own henna art.. but that's racial profiling on your part that actually worked :-) I fall in the last category. I went to school when we still used "rotring" pens to draft. CAD was introduced after fourth semester. The .01 and .001 with colored ink.. if you...

    Friday Boredom - Your Pet Peeves

    People driving off after they pump gas.. without putting the nozzle back in it's place. Sheesh! I had to honk to get her attention.. but it was too late by the time I spent three seconds deciding whether to take a video to ramp up my YouTube presence, or make a safety call. The nozzle fell to...

    Haha! I am not counting my almonds yet- will do it after my vacation next month. But trying to down a protein shake a day, and substitute a snack with premier protein.  As for main meals, it's been a carb fest. IHO, Homer is the inspiration.. every time you see almonds, think how many Homer...
