We use a pill buried in a heaping spoon of peanut butter-worked every time.

I'm really sorry to hear about your loss. At times like this, I know words are entirely inadequate, but they are often the only tangible thing people have to offer from far away. As for the anger you feel, when my dad passed away, the anger stage was relatively brief for me, b/c I wasn't angry...

Congrats! I love watching the Pillsbury bake off on food network, and it must be so cool to be apart of it! Good luck and your recipe looks delicious.

In general, I find balance and fusion in physical and mental pursuits very helpful. I found yoga extremely good for focusing in the moment, mostly b/c I naturally have poor balance, so I really had to think about what my body was doing and where the ground is ;) So maybe getting a little...

I take measurements monthly and it really helps me gauge how I'm doing--if the scale isn't moving down as fast as I'd like but my measurements are going down, I know I'm still on track. My final goal is to get the waist to hip ratio to .8 or less b/c there are strong correlations between...

In some cultures, keeping both names (to mark the linage I think) is used, either as a hyphenation or making the maiden name an extra middle name. I also remember reading somewhere that some cultures do give their daugthers (or maybe just the youngest??) the mother's maiden name. I don't think...

This was Joe and my original plan as well--to hyphenate and create a new last name we would both use. While it was super easy for me to change my name (just a line on the application of marriage), it was more of an ordeal for Joe, so we ended up keeping our respective last names. I joked with my...

I wish it was like summoning Beetlejuice. ;) Culinarily, when I think of Brazil, I think of Alvacodoes, plantains, tropical fruits, and braised/spiced beef. Here's a cool site for snacks/drinks: http://www.sonia-portuguese.com/recipes/cooking.htm#Appetizers%20and%20Savory%20Snacks

I totally get you--when done properly, swimming will kick your butt every time. Add in some current, and you're toast. That's why I mentioned having to really watch your heartrate--inevitably, every time I start swimming again, I try to race out of the gate with freestyle, overdo it and have to...

I detest the stationary bike too! It doesn't help that I've never learned how to ride a bike, so the movement had always felt really strange to me. Have you tried swimming laps? There are a number of strokes that work the full body, so you can change it up to keep if from getting boring, easy...

The trick to great banana bread-- take half the bananas in the recipe and mash lightly with a fork (so there are still chunks of banana). Then take the other half of the bananas and cream them with the sugar and then build the wet ingredients. After you mix the dry ingredients with the wet...

We took a few weeks off dieting for Thanksgiving and Joe's birthday, but we are back on the wagon until Christmas. I'm on the last week of Fitness Challenge #2, which is giving even emphasis on cardio and strength. I'm still 5+ pounds lighter than when I started, and while I'm glad that I took...

Happy holidays all and (since it is the first night of channukkah) shalom aleichem

I've been hunting down 2 player games for Joe and I the past year or two as well. I second Lost Expedition, but if she is looking for more strategy-oriented games, I would suggest Medici (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/image/146929), Puerto Rico (http://www.boardgamegeek.com/game/3076) or San...

That was the part at which I lost it and couldn't stop laughing.

Congrats on the weight lost so far! My mom lost a lot of weight on the atkins diet too, but watch out for your cholesterol. Her's went way out of control, and she basically stopped the Atkins diet, and switched to South Beach--where the emphasis is on eating the right carbs in the right...

Less than 2 weeks away from Games Day!

One of Joe's friends does rapier sword play for fun, and it's always looked so awesome! If I wasn't so clumsy, I would consider taking it up just to have sword fighting on my list of hobbies/skills. I'm almost done with Week 6, and I've lost 8 pounds. It's been a challenge getting 5 days of...
