A Little Spaghetti Squash

Posted by Alicia

I found that going back to work at the office is not only less stressful and more productive but I lost 3lbs in one week, woohoo! I'm so excited that this year has started on the right foot and am looking forward to many more wonderful weeks ahead. On that note, I have to say that my venture to try this squash was not a good one. I semi-followed a herbed based recipe for baking this and added some apple chicken sausage and though I liked the texture of the squash I wasn't a fan of the bland lack of flavor and this surely is not what I was looking for. So, for now, I am putting this aside. However, if you know of any recipes that are SO delicious...please share!

A New Year, A New Decade, A New...

Me! Ha, right. I don't know about you but most years I don't make a New Year's Resolution let alone stick with it. Maybe I am a little superstitious...or maybe I know that 'life' happens and it doesn't mean that it will ever co-inside with what you have planned. So what do you have planned??
I have so much planned it's a little overwhelming for me to think about how I am going to get it all done by 2011 but I am taking one day at a time. It's funny how you think about one thing and it almost always leads to something else needing to be done first. Hmmm.....anyhow, I know one thing is for sure no matter what my plans are my only true goal is to continue to make life better for me and my kids.
So as a part of my plan I will make sure to write here, as frequently as possible. I'm going to keep it mixed though...food, recipes, living gluten free. But also about my life as a mom, a single mom at that. With that said, I am going to work on a little scrapbooking from one of the contests over at DSM - my favorite forum!! I will post it here when I am done.
