When you need a little crunch....

I am a huge snack monster!!! I love to snack!! Come over to my house, ask my boyfriend, look at my Instagram and you will see I am obsessed with snacks. And I tend to not discriminate against types of snacks. I just love to pick and snack through out the day, which snacking is what got me into weight gain problems my life. BUT now I know what to snack and how to snack!!

Today I was traveling for work and no matter what, if I am traveling or not, I always bring my lunch and snacks with me. So today I brought a turkey sandwhich, some grapes, a plumout (plum that married an apricot, Delish!) a Dannon Light and Fit Key Lime yogurt, and Blue Diamond Blueberry Almonds mixed with Target Banana Baby Puffs. Yes, I eat baby food puffs!! They are an amazing mix in to Ice cream, yogurt, frozen yogurt, trail mix, popcorn, etc. I don't even have kids and I love them! I picked up this banana puffs because I love the taste of bananas!

Now here is the awesome part, you have 90 pieces, 90!!!! for 25 calories, which comes out too 0pp!!! Woohoo!!!! That alone makes me jump up and do a crazy, arms throwing happy dance! What an awesome way to get a little extra crunch to your snack, which really is all I am looking for, is some crunch factors!! They come in bunch of different flavors, I am seriously going to try each flavor. Now most baby food companies, carry something like this, I got Target because they were cheaper, I am frugal!

I took 27 Blue Diamond Blueberry Almonds (4pp) and mixed probably about 30 puffs (0) and shook them up in a little ziplock bag. After I had my lunch, I couldn't wait to dive into my snack! And boy did it hit the spot!! Just the right amount of sweetness and the crunch I was looking for. Branch out and try some on your own, the possibilities are seriously endless. Baby food isn't for little ones anymore ;0)

4pp!!!!

Low Point Apple Crisp

Image
At my Weight Watchers meeting yesterday, my leader told me about a low point apple crisp and I couldn't resist making it today. I love apple crisp, I don't have it often or really at all, because it can be high in points and frankly I like low maintenance  baking, so when I can find something easy and quick and low in points, well I am all game!! This apple crisp is again so easy and quick, perfect for a craving, a family gathering, party or just to have around the house. Requires only 3 or 4 ingredients to prepare this and you might even have all of it in your house right now. Apple Crisp Serving Size 4 4pp for a serving 4-5 medium apples 2 packets of Cinnamon or Maple Brown Sugar Oatmeal (preferably one that are 100-120 calories or 3pp) 8 oz of Diet Sprite or Diet 7up 5 sprays of Can't Believe It's Not Butter 1tsp of light brown sugar 8x8 baking pan Here is what I used: I actually used 5 apples because I

Let's Go To The Movies....And EAT at Cobb Theaters Tyrone

Image
As part of the Tampa Bay Bloggers, I was given access and a gift card to tour the new Cobb Theatre at the Tyrone Square Mall for social share and blog post, all opinions and reviews are my own. I have lived in the St. Petersburg Area for almost 7 years now and worked at the Tyrone Square Mall for 6.5. In those 6.5 years, I anxiously waited for the mall to get a movie theatre and the time has finally come and this is not just any run of the mill movie theatre, this one is luxury and spacious and a whole experience on its own. Nanci, over at This Crazy Life of Mine , also a Tampa Bay Blogger and more importantly one of my besties, and I have partnered with our blog post about the Cobb Experience. She was in attendance also and there is so much to tell you, we decided to break it up into TWO part posts, linking to the two of our blogs together. I am going to give you the details on the food experience at Cobb, believe me it is more than just soda, candy and popcorn and Nanci is going

Perspective: My Trauma, Fear and Rejection

Well we have made it through another week of CoronaVirus, Stay Home, Social Distancing of 2020. I honestly have no clue what to call it, other than that. Today, has been 2 weeks since we closed BBW and shut down the store. Originally we had some high hopes we would have been open by yesterday, the mall sent an email saying they weren't going to open until the 19th, and then Pres. Trump extended the Social Distancing until the 30th. I honestly have no clue when I am going back to work. I am literally just trying to take it day by day and moment by moment, and week by week. I have been surviving and also Thriving during this process. I am a child of hard things. I have been through some tough shit in my day, and maybe I will get to that at some point, but we can save that for another post. Today the idea of Perspective is in my brain. If you don't know, which I am sure you do know if you follow along with me, but Rachel Hollis, whom is one of the many people I look
