Default RAFL - Fred - Feb 11

Whoever said ANYthing about marriage? I thought we were just having a
simple conversation about who's on top? Marriage complicates
everything!

I am in Seattle. I was sending you and Joyce/Prairie/Lee to SF for
marriage! (G)

I don't do cookies very often. Last was over New Years weekend.
Well, Miss Meringues don't count (well, they do count by don't)

dunno about the FRANGO. I do have some home made, german chocolate chip
oatmeal cookies. So I guess I don't have to drive to San Francisco today.
Or wherever. I thought you were in Washington. Where am I getting this SF
thing.

What is interesting is that I now have more breads in the house than
before WW. Most are high fiber and I use them mainly for the weekend
jaunts for sandwiches which I find are better for hunger than the
handful of this, handful of that, that I use to eat while
hiking/skiing. So I make a very skinny peanut butter (less than
tablespoon) and jelly (less than teaspoon) sandwich or two with 1
point bread slices. But muffins, cookies, crackers are pretty much
not purchased anymore. Altho, I will admit that the "brownie" bites
that Costco sells keep catching my eye but I have resisted and never
given in.

Oh, LESANNE, forgot those Costco FRANGO types of choc down there,
also. (G)

Then we're even. No lasagna for you, no dried guava for me. I normally

don't
look at the breads either, is one of those items I pretty much stay away

from. I
had seen the muffins listed in their little newspaper/newsletter thing

that is
mailed to the house and thought they sounded good. I was very pleasantly
surprised when I found that the nutritional information was friendly

also.

That sounds pretty good. I have not looked at any of the "super"
bread-extras - just a loaf on occasion. Still never did find your
lasagna either.

Too late - you knew I wasn't going to pass this one up! Trader Joe's

99% fat free
Blueberry Wheat Bran Muffins ... 1 muffin, about 2 oz., 110 cal/0.5g

fat/5g fiber,
1.44 US points. They really are good! Not a large sized muffin, but a

bit bigger
than the mini muffin types. Maybe a small cupcake? hehehe There are

no
preservatives, took me a while to figure that out (too bad I didn't

read the
package where it is stated very clearly). The first two packages I

bought turned
moldy within 2 or 3 days. I have since learned ... put them in a

zipper bag and
keep refrigerated for a bit longer life. My TJ's has them near the

english
muffins/breads - stacked on a display table in the center of the aisle.

Go for
it! They really do make a nice snack alternative.

Hmm, how many points for those blueberry bran muffins - NO! don't tell

I've put them on my list for the next time I head to Trader Joe's.

Not sure when
that will be as I'm currently stocked up on soup, english muffins and

blueberry
bran muffins. I'm sure I'll come up with *something* that will drag

me there soon
though. G

Sorry about the gain Fred, but it's just a little one and will be

gone in no

Mmmm.... toasted coconut, one of my favorites!

Feeling pretty good with last week's substantial loss, this is

great.

Of course, I just discovered Trader Joe's Mini-Meringue in

Coconut
flavor and I mean just - out of meeting, to TJ's and found the
meringues. good stuff - like toasted coconut.
