Black Friday and left over Turkey

Ok........ we stayed at home and did not go shopping. In fact, we started our shoping early this year just to stay out of the crowds way. When you've got 3 kids and a husband that does not like to shop a lot, you really start to rethink the whole shoping strategy.

Anyway, for those of you who shoped 'til you droped, congratulations on a safe and fun day!
I hope! :)

Now, take those leftovers and make something of them. I found this link to a site that has suggestions for 10 Lowfat ways to use left over turkey.

Another thing you can do is have friends over for a game night or movie night and get rid of those leftovers.

Remember, "Moderation" is the key!

What did you do with your leftovers?

Thanksgiving and Moderation

Ok everyone. We all know that it is Thanksgiving tomorrow and a lot of us have a lot of traveling to do. Some of us are planning on staying home and just having a small dinner with our family.

Whatever your plans are just remember it is very tempting to over eat. As I indicated in one of my earlier posts about trying foods is to get small portions. If you don't remember that post just scroll on down and take a read.

Also, don't forget I've started another blog about Grocery stores. I will be posting a lot more content to that one.

So, Have a great holiday and give thanks for all of your blessings.

God Bless.

Sick Children and Family

Well it's that time of year when you have kids that are in school and getting sick with the latest virus that is going around.

Plus, my father and brother are in Nebraska hunting and my brother just come down with strep, the virus, and a temperature. In other words they are not hunting.

Of course the best thing to do if you suspect strep throat is see your doctor, get plenty of rest and liquids.

I hope all is well and I'll talk to you soon.
