LOSER MONDAY

 

Can I just tell you girls how happy I am for all of you.  And we had a record number of post tonight.  WOOHOOOO    That's what I like to see.  Sorry I'm posting so late but I really have been reading all of your blogs.  I even posted on the ones that had their loser post tonight.  WE had 25 at last count.

 Several of you posted your soup recipes.  Now I have to say go to Jen's blog and get ready for a laugh. Her soup recipe is hysterical, then as I'm reading blogs I see that Kimtried to pull the same thing on us.  Go have a look.  All the soup "recipes"  look good and Arlette gave us a meatloaf recipe which I've got to try. Sounds like your all either stay put or losing a little here and there.  No one really said they've gained alot back.  So it's all good. As long as we're on the right track.  We're "trying" to be healthier.  And I do mean "TRYING". Sometimes it's not so easy like when you go out with the girlie's and order dessert.  Well it came with the meal what were we to do???  I promised a photo of it so if you don't want to see look away now.   So seriously do you see how small it is?? Deb held up a quarter to give you an idea. They call it a "shot" i think.  We three went to P.F.Changs and these came with our meal.  Deb did pass it up I must say while Nancy and I........well you know.

 

Speaking of soup recipes..........Here's my hot n sour soup. OMG that was good but man was it ever spicy. Made my nose run. I know more info than you need but it's true it did. And ok so I don't have the recipe for it. Just a photo.  And I'm sure it is low cal.

 

Now Jeansaid she saw on tv that you can exercise and lose weight by lifting your children while exercising.  Now if I lift Boo and Wilster, I'd be in the hospital which I guess would ultimately lead to weight loss because hospital food sucks.  Speaking of Jean, she is our winner from last weeks game.  Jean send me your address and I'll get your gifty out to you.  The answers were 1) Kim or Kathy  2) Brenda 3) Jean 4) Janessa 5) Kris 6) Rachel.  Thanks for playing along. 

Since I've been gaining, uh I mean losing I've had to resort to this.............don't laugh you know we all need a little stretch now and then.  And I gotta say it feels darn good too.

 

Great job ladies. See you next week same place same time.  Ok maybe not the same time but the same place.  Keep up the good work. 

-------------------------------------------------------------

Before I forget I wanna show my goodies that Nancy gave us at our Valentine dinner in March.   We're hoping for a St. Patrick's dinner in April.  We're having a certain someone's birthday dinner next.  WOOHOOOO  You know we'll have some good photos from that.

Don't ya love all my goodies?? I love that red cake plate.  It's got hearts all over it.  I love cake stands.  I know I cant have cake but I can look at my stand cant I?

 

Cute isn't it?  Sorry my photos didn't do well with all that red. 

 

I love the little Mary E. box.  It's the Queen of Everything.  And I love my little bag she made. It's the cutest!!!!!

 

All this was inside our bag Nancy made us.  I forgot to put my Foster Grants in the photo because I was wearing them. 

 

This was soo cute. My photo sucks but trust me it's cute.  It's a fob for my scissors and this needle thingy, Nancy said you can use it for cross stitch but I'm putting it on one of my pincushions.  Thanks for everything Nancy.    I had so much fun with you and Deb.

 

Gotta wrap this up before the clock strikes midnight.   I cant miss Loser Monday now can I???   I'd never hear the end of it.  Off to dream of a brownie.   wink wink. 

Tomorrow I'll share a blog that is having a great house BOM going on.  I'm lovin it.

What a great dinner it was.

Me and the Sistas met at my house then headed out for a great dinner at P.F. Chang. My new favorite place.  We had the best time.  It's been way toooo long since we all three were able to get together.  Of course there was lots of gift exchanging going on as usual.  Cause that's how we roll!!!!!   Kris I said that for you.

Awww look at them all cozy together. 

 

Excuse me Nancy but I think that might be my gift your about to rip into. She gave it to me then she took it away.   I'm just sayin................could have been due to that lemon drop martini she sucked down. 

 

All the employees kept coming up to us asking if they could take a photo of us.  WELL DUH!!!!!!!!!!  Stupid question.    Do we look like we're ready for a close up?????  Ummm yea!!!

 

Can you stand it??????Don't be jealous now.  Nancy bestowed upon us these wonderful new Foster Grants.   Alright she probably picked them up at the 99 cent store but we can dream cant we???   And do tell.............we look pretty damn good!!!  OH check out our cute little bags Nancy made us.  WE LOVE THEM!!

 

Ok so we hadn't even finished our martini's yet.  HONEST.  Poor Nancy we are squishing her!!!  Bet she wishes she would have brought her Foster Grants too.

 

I felt sorry for Nancy so I let her borrow my Fosters and check out her Annie that Deb gave her. We both got one. LOVE IT!!!  The manage asked us what we were celebrating and we said VALENTINE'S DAY!!!    We told her we'd be back in June to celebrate Easter. Because again.........that's how we roll ...................KRIS..

 

Hot N Sour or was it Spicy? soup anyone?? It was so freakin  HOT my nose was running.  But good.

 

Ill show our desserts on LOSER Monday. 

And here's my little Annie that Deb gave me.  Don't ya just love her?? 

 

I've got to take photos of my loot from Nancy and I'll show it tomorrow.  Or on my Mon. post.  WE got some great stuff I tell ya!!!!!  WE were already talking about what we're doing for Easter.  Thank goodness for all those holidays!!   Cause we are three celebrating fools. 

I had a great time girlies!!!!  Let's not wait so long till next time.
