The wedding is just over two months away. Last night, I took one last bite of my beloved Oreos. It’s time to quit cold turkey (until 10/18/14 – yes, there are Oreos AT the wedding). I must focus on getting this bod in tip-top shape for that unbearably tight dress I picked out.
I’ve got to get my priorities straight! More running & veggies, less sugar & carbs.
This pasta would have been (not really) perfect!!!!!! If I hadn’t had three helpings. THREE – I’m a monster.
Another and I would have had to be wheeled to my bedroom.
A must have in your easy supper repertoire. Light, flavorful, and delicious hot or cool. The cheese makes you feel sinful but the asparagus tricks your brain into thinking you’re a rabbit!
