Last
night on facebook, I posted a photo of a soup I made that is somewhere
between zero and one weight watchers point per serving. There are lots
of recipes out there but I really like this one so I'm sharing it with
you.
Zero Point Soup* Broth: 5 cups of vegetable broth 2 tablespoons of tomato paste 1 teaspoon basil 1 teaspoon oregano 1/2 teaspoon minced garlic salt to taste Veggies: 1 large onion 1 bag of frozen medley (cauliflower, broccoli, carrots) 1 can of cut green beans 1 red pepper (You can add other vegetables that that you like as well. Stay away from things like any kind of potato, beans, corn, peas- too starchy and will add points.) In a pan, spray some cooking spray and sautee one cut up onion and one red pepper for a few minutes. Mix broth ingredients in a large pot and start to cook on high heat until it starts to boil, then turn to medium. Add sauted vegetables, bag of frozen medley and drained can of green beans. Simmer on stove for about an hour or so or until all vegetables are soft and soup is hot. 5 one cup servings |

Birthday card
This is a birthday card I made for my Manager, Mrs. Janet Powers, she loves sea shells.
I copied and cut out a several different colors shells then glued a few together. Before the glue dried I started shaping the card stock, giving the shell its 3 D needed. Later when the glue dried I dry embossed the shell giving it more detail. And of course I used glitter to give it some shine and tied ribbons between the green and white card stock. Added a few flowers to the bottom corners of the card using small sea shells glued together forming the petals. And on the end of the ribbons I glued on the cutes smallest sea shells. The sea shell inside the shell is a secret, you cannot see it from this picture but it has its own Pearl. Ok it’s not a real Pearl! I made that too.

The Sleep Doctor's Sleep Slim Smoothie
Doze off and keep your metabolism burning through the night with this delicious smoothie courtesy of Dr. Michael Breus, PhD, The Sleep Doctor.
Cherries are one of the richest known sources of melatonin, the sleep
hormone that recent studies have shown can also help reverse the effects
of aging, while bananas contain loads of magnesium, a calming mineral.
Lastly, soy milk is high in tryptophan, the sleep-inducing amino acid.
Sweet dreams!

Bird Cookie Treats
Bird Cookie Treats, I Found this file a while back but I can not find the real sender to thank them for a great little animal gift tutorial. Now would be good time to make this easy little treat for the little birds who are looking for food on these cold winter days.
1.
Press bird seed mixture into the heart shape or what ever U have on hand. But make sure you place on a wax paper. And spray the cutter with Pam (again use what you have) Press spoonfuls of the mixture into the heart shape
with the back of the spoon. Place a straw in where ever you want a hole to hang from. Then lift up and off the cookie cutter carefully. Spraying the cookie cutter with cooking spray makes it slide right off.Sunday, December 16, 2012
