365.97- 101 We saw Rachael Ray!

On Dec. 15 Rachael Ray came to town to sign copies of her latest book - Look+Cook! The line was long but well worth it. Rachael is so petite and beautiful. Can't wait to try out some of these recipes.


The Line wrapped around the store.



Getting closer!

We're Next!

That's my youngest daughter waiting to get hers signed.



Radiant Fruit 365-4

More and more lately i've been looking for ways to  cut back on spending (as is everyone else these days). One way is to cook more meals at home. This not only costs less than eating out, it helps with my weight goals as i can manage what i put in (salt, sugar, etc.) in my food and manage portion size. We were going to do a healthy potluck at work this week and i was thinking of taking a vegetable or fruit salad. Strawberries were on sale this weekend at the grocery store (buy 1 quart package, get one free) so i decided on the fruit salad. i found a great recipe on the Food Network site by Elie Krueger from Healthy Appetite. With minimal ingredients - strawberries, kiwis, melon and then a honey, lemon juice and mint (i did forget the mint in mine) for dressing. Very easy and very delicious.
