It is the holiday season and there is high caloric food everywhere! I have done quite well thus far, especially since I'm currently doing a 6-week challenge. I haven't caved into buying Christmas candy and cookies and haven't planned to bake with my daughters until Christmas Day, so no overeating up until the big day… Continue reading Food News
I rarely bake. No. I take that back. I NEVER bake. Bakegoods to me is whatever I pick up from Starbucks and honestly that has got to cease because Starbucks is expensive!

I usually don't do this. In all my years reviewing products from electronics to hand cream I haven't put two products up against each other, but since I plunked down cash for two food magazines over the past week I figured I'd give you my take on each and let you know which one you… Continue reading Food Magazine vs Food Network Magazine: Which One Deserves Your Money?
