WHIP OUT THE GOOD STUFF!?

so friday was sooo depressing! i had so much drama with school and registering...the devil is trying to keep me down here and it's not happening!

but the bf was nice and wanted to cheer me up so we went out to eat...i love my food!

here's my EOTN...i pulled out the jesse's girl and my pink hip metallic duo...





my outfit for the night...cute & casual

jeans...ON $25
a.e. scarf...$20

we went to best buy and then had to find somewhere without a long wait to eat...i wanted cracker barrel, but there was a 40 MINUTE WAIT! so we decided to go to ruby tuesday's, but they were CLOSED DOWN! i was like can this day get ANY more worse...

walking into best buy...


after stopping at walmart and having a short argument he just pulled up to this restaurant called ryan's. neither one of us knew what this place was so we went in and it was a buffet! i don't particularily care for buffets...idk, something about so many people hovering over the food and it sitting out so long...but i actually like it! the dessert WAS NOT good, except fot the ice cream, but everthing else i ate was pretty good...

the restaurant...
in the car...


so that was about it for my weekend...i had to work yesterday so didn't do much but lounge around and make a video...hope your weekend great & good luck on finals!

Stay oh so Chic!

Healthy Eats!

Wednesday, October 29, 2008

so i wanted to do a food post! i LOVE to eat and this post is just some healthier alternatives to turn to and help satisfy cravings without packing on the pounds! i eat all of the stuff listed below and love them which is why these are some of my favs...


HEALTHY CHOICE FRESH MIXERS:

i absolutely love these! i got a couple to try out and after a few minutes in the microwave, a little pepper(love my pepper) and parmesan cheese it was hard to put this little container down. i tried the zesty marinara since it was the only one without meat and it was delish! i definately will be buying more...great for a quick lunch or even late dinner!




LEAN POCKET THREE CHEESE AND BROCCOLI:

lean pockets have a minimum selection for vegetarians...three cheese & broccoli and three cheese...but i love these for a snack or even for lunch. my fav is the three cheese and broccoli, i love cheese, but the three cheese got to be overbearing...that are many choices fro you meat eaters to choose from and they've even made them healthier by using whole grain bread!







CUCUMBER AND TOMATO SALAD:

i fell in love with this salad at a young age and still eat a lot of it...slice up some cucumbers and tomatos, sprinkle a little pepper and drizzle some red wine or italian dressing and you're in heaven! great alternative from your regular salad (i get a little sick of lettuce myself) also a great way to introduce these veggies (or fruits) into your kid's diet...look at the pretty colors!




TROPICANA FRUIT SMOOTHIES:

i found these by accident and wanted more! if you have a problem getting your daily dose of fruits and are always on the go these are the drinks for you! it tastes so smooth and creamy and the flavors burst in your mouth. it's very refreshing!



LAY'S KETTLE COOKED REDUCED FAT POTATO CHIPS:

i'm a chip lover and love the crunchiness of kettle cooked chips (my absolute fav is the mesquite bbq) but i could sit and just eat, eat, eat and forget to stop! i love these, because there's lesser fat, but i still get the crunchiness and that slight saltiness that i sometimes crave...plus i don't feel so guilty eating a little more than i should!


SMART FOOD WHITE CHEDDAR POPCORN:

i fell in love with these last year...i love cheese popcorn, especially white cheese, put these are even healthir and still taste cheesy yummy!



EDY'S FRUIT BARS:


my bf will tell you that i go through at least two of these a day!! these bars are a healthy alternative to ice cream and popscicles...it's made of REAL fruit, it can't get any better than that! my fav flavors are strwberry and grape...stock upon these!


of course you can't stay completely healthy unless you drink plenty of WATER! it helps keep you cleansed and refreshed...

...save the planet, skip the plastic!



Stay of so Chic!

MUAH!

What was I Talking About?!

Monday, October 20, 2008

i just read over my previous post and i have no clue what i was talking about, i think i just typed what i was thinking which explains why it sounded so scattered.

i was talking about the economy, because of food choices as of late. since i've been in college i have eaten out A LOT, but now that i'm paying for everything i've been cutting back. last night we made pizza from scratch. the best crust is the JIFFY crust...i had spinach and tomatos (vegetarian thing) and he had turkey, spinach, tomatos and mushrooms...

it was tasty but it made me realize how i can't just call my fav itilian restaurant and get my penne pasta or cheese and tomato calzone...been eating a lot of pasta roni, rice a roni, lean pockets and french fries...quick and cheap, but i have been saving more by not eating out.

not that i get to see much of it, because the gas station takes it all...luckily the price where i am is down to $2.80/gallon (please let the $/barrel keep going down)

i've also been watching a lot of MSNBC thanks to the election. since my major is radio/tv we have to be "current" in the current events and for one of my classes i get quizes every week so that explains that...but this is what the post should've of originally been about...don't criticize me too bad, i was still a lil jumbled from the morning activities lol

Stay oh so Chic!

The Economy--POO!

so the economy has been kicking my a@@! i'm still waiting for all of my stuff to come from my bank and it's getting frustrating, because it's been like 3 weeks, but they said it should be coming any day now a week ago.

but anyways...since the economy is pooed i've been trying to find cheaper alternatives for food...meaning not so much eating out:<>

i haven't been shopping much lately (trying to get the credit card debt down) but i know i ravved about the open front cardigans and i saw one at target that i really want. it's $17 and they have a stone blue color that's to die for so that's on my future purchase list.

sorry no pics today, i'm supposed to be at school, but my car wouldn't start! my bf told me that if i left a little gas in my car when it started getting cold at night it would freeze and i wouldn't be able to start it. idk if that's what happened. but i'm sitting here in my PINK loungies upset, because i'm stuck in the apartment until he gets off work...

so i woke up early for nothing and i can't fall back to sleep...on another note my dance team started practicing again...we have a show the 29th! i thought i would review since i have nothing elose to do and there's nothing but re-runs on tv, but i can't find this ONE song! it's by rick ross, it's slow, everyone thinks it's called "rolling" but it's not because i can't find the right one anywhere. it goes "rolling, rolling, rolling" then i can't remember after that but it's slow and it repeats for like the first min of the song. if anyone has ANY idea of what it is or what it may be can you PLS let me know! i would appreciate it...

Stay oh so Chic!
MUAH!

Uh Yum Yum!

Tuesday, July 29, 2008

i am officially on a food watch! since i've been home i've noticed i've gain a few pounds or inches...i'm not calling it a diet, because those don't work! so, instead, i'm watching what i eat, not that i don't do it already, but i'm buckling down down...

at school i rarely ate fast food, but since i've been home, and because of working, i've been eating more of it...for the past couple of weeks i've cut back giving in once to BK when my and the bf need food really badly (it's also not good for your diet or "food watching" to love food and be in a relationship with someone who loves it as much as you)

but, i've been doing good cutting back on the fast food...i did evaluate how i've been eating at home and at school to see what the difference may be and at school i walked a heck of a lot more...i tried walking during my lunch break a few weeks ago, but walking at noon in 90 degree weather or having rain fall consecutively for days doesn't quite help the cause...

i haven't gained much that people notice, but i notice and i have to get back on track.

keeping with healthy eating, i was so hungry today and i wanted something GOOD for dinner...after browsing the cabinets and freezer i finally found SOMETHING to eat!

Stir-Fried String Beans


what you need:

baby green and yellow whole peas

rice (white or brown)

margarine

salt & pepper

fresh or jarred garlic in water

you can add meat to this (chicken, beef or pork)

boil the beans in a covered pot of lightly salted water for 3-5 minutes.
drain beans and add 1 tbs of butter to pain with a SMIDGE of salt and pepper to taste (lots of pepper for me)
add 1/2 tsp of chopped garlic stirring ingredients together.
add cooked rice to the beans (equal to amount of beans)
pain should NOT be buttery so the beans and rice slightly fry on medium heat.
beans should be crunchy and juicy to the bite.
turn of heat, plate and ENJOY!

Stay oh so Chic!
