Spent the late afternoon, yesterday winterizing the yard. Also earned some Weight Watchers activity points in the process. It was hard to believe I was mowing in November. I am hoping that is the last time we have to mow until spring.

The Creamy Crock Pot Chicken Stew for dinner last night was good. Very comforting and filling. The family enjoyed it so, I will make it again. I will however omit the one cup of water that I listed in the ingredients. (I have all ready removed it from the recipe I posted.)

I had a question from one of my readers I would like to address. The reader asked if I had any side dishes with my "What's for Dinner" postings? For now I have not added side dishes. For our family the biggest challenge is picking the main entree. Our sides are usually pretty simple, a veggie and a rice, or a cooked veggie with a salad. I figure once you pick the star of the show the supporting cast should fall into place.  If you have any suggestions for side dishes let me know I'd love to try them and add them.

Finally, I have added some Besties and Bombs to the "Besties and Bombs" tab. I have also added some Low Point Favorites to the list. Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Good Morning friends and family. Last night's Sticky Asian Chicken turned out great. Served it with white rice for a point friendly dinner, that is sure to be repeated.

In other exciting news I created a new Facebook page " Thinnywannabe" Be sure to check it out and like away. I also added a new tab to the blog, Beauty Besties and Bombs. I wanted to share my cosmetic obsession and review some great and not so great products.

Last, I had an angel on my side last night. I have been feeling bummed about my unit closing and me suddenly jobless. A ray of hope was shed when a Facebook friend, shared she is a nursing recruiter and would like to help. (crossing fingers.) Thanks Katie for making my day. 

Have a great day!
