I do have one finish to share. A couple of winters ago I participated in a mystery crochet along that was being held on an Internet group. I ended up with a caplet that I was going to send to hubs grandmother that was in a nursing home at the time. She passed away before I got it sent to her so it has been stuffed in the closet that I just cleaned out this week. I washed it and added a button to it, now I just need to find a home for it.
I have another recipe to share with you from the Light Cooking cook book. Hubs made burgers for us this evening. Beef for him and a turkey burger for me. I made this light potato salad made with nonfat yogurt. It really was good and hubs liked it also.

I took what looked like 1/8 of the recipe because the recipe was for 8. It really was a lot for 100 calories.
So far this cookbook is batting 100.
Hard to believe the day is pretty much over. Going to sit and crochet a while. Good night all! Blessings!

You are so industrious and I am proud of your, should I say diet or just healthy eating?, I wanted to know how the chickens were doing? We went to eat at Greenlife for lunch and I was talking to Josh, Jessica's boyfriend, who is the grocery manager and he said that some of his local sources for eggs had "dried up" because there was snow on the ground. Are your girls producing right now cause I know you have had snow? Just wondering....Have a blessed Sunday!
Your caplet is lovely, maybe you could donate it to the nursing home where your mom-in-law was, or have a free raffle for it, I'll bet the ladies would love it! Love your recipes also, never thought of using yogurt with potato salad! I bet your hubs would like my latest post! Have a great weekend!
Now, this look like a recipe that I would like!! I love potato salad in any form.
That capelet is so cute - you'll find someone soon that needs it. I knit prayer shawls and give them to our pastor and let him give them to someone he visits who is in need of some prayers and hugs. I never know who gets them.
Have a great day,
Lynn
Can't wait to see your borders finished. Hamburgers and salad look good enough to eat too, LOL. Hope they were delish!!
I think I'm going to have to try that potato recipe. I didn't know about the skinny buns. Who makes them. I'm not doing very well dieting, but I'm eating a little better. I need to get some of my old Weight Watcher cookbooks out.

I have your blog up on my computer right now in my kitchen. I'm making these potatoes, some hamburgers, and I found the skinny buns! Thanks for the dinner idea.
