I have been on Weight Watchers too long...

Last night, it was just me and the girls eating dinner. We were having Ashley's favorite, tortellini (aka Ashley's pasta). At one point, she looked over at her sister and said,

"My dinner is more points than yours, Audrey."

The competition never ends...

Thankfully, today is my Friday. We have friends coming from Virginia staying with us tonight, and then we are heading to Myrtle Beach in the morning to be with my Mom and Stepdad and my brother and his wife.

I will leave you today with this...click on this, take the survey and get a chance to receive a Senseo Coffee Pod system. I did receive this product to review, and it is great. A full review will come later...

Informational Blogging - Nature Valley Roasted Nut Crunch Bars

I was sent two boxes of Nature Valley's new Roasted Nut Crunch bars to try out and review. Let me first off say that as a perpetual dieter, I love eating "bars" for breakfast. I am the type of person that needs protein for breakfast in order to make it through my morning, and normally crunch bars and chewy bars are high in protein and are something I can easily grab on my way out the door (along with my large mug o' coffee).

Let me also say that I love peanuts...seriously. I think the fact that the rest of my family can't eat peanuts, I want them even more. These new bars are packed with nuts followed by five other natural ingredients. There are two kinds, Peanut Crunch and Almond Crunch. And both were very good. I was surprised at the combination of nuts and sunflower seeds, but the taste was very good. And the bars were filling as well as packed with protein (each bar contains 7 grams of protein).

The only downside is for those counting your Weight Watchers points. The Almond Crunch is 4 points, and the Peanut Crunch is 5. It still isn't bad for a meal, and for those needed a great energy bar high in protein, these are defintely good. I just try and eat only 2 points for breakfast, so these go a little over my goal.

I have 5 bars of each kind if anyone wants to try any. I would be more than happy to mail them to you. Just leave me comment and let me know. First come, first serve. Let me know which flavor you would like to try....

Blogging has its benefits...


A few weeks ago, I got an email from Greetingflix.com saying they would give me a free pro account if I tried them out. And they fixed the bug that was not allowing me to post what I created on my blog, so I am finally getting around to doing this.

The site is great...you can load pictures into templates of "movies" set to music. Once you do that, you can email "your memories in motion" or post them on your blog. I found the site easy to use and set up well. Go visit and play around, you will get sucked into creating some cool stuff.

I am not going to Blogher, but I wish everyone who is the best of luck in your travels. And I want to hear all about it when you get back. Pretty please.
