Some new discoveries

Hellooooooooooooo, and Happy Wednesday to you!!

Hope you are having a Wonderful Wednesday,

mine has been very good for as tired as I am!!

Well, since my pic thingie is working today

I will show you what I have been wanting to show

you for the past few days.

Discovery # 1 - Have you seen this new Multi-grain

sandwich thins bread by Arnolds. It is delicious, and only has

100 Calories for the whole bun, with no trans fats or sat. fat.

Our regular bread is 220 cal. for 2 pcs. It is great to make

toast out of as well, nice crusty crunchy toast. I am a crunchy

food eater, so I like my toast like that!! Also makes a killer

hamburger, cause you can actually taste the hamburger

more than the bun! We used them Memorial day for our

burgers, and everyone was wanting to know where to

buy them, so thought you might like them too!!

You can see I was getting a lil hungry while taking

these pics.

This is what I like to do with it. I toast them and put laughing

cow cheese on them. Laughing cow is great too. One of

those lil wedges is perfect for 2 pcs. of bun or bread,

and goes great with ham or I enjoy putting cucumbers

and onions on top. Good Eating, and a good way to

get some veggies down you. It is also low in Sat. fat

and has no trans fat and comes in 3 flavors.

It was a great find for us since we are on a low-fat

eating plan cause of hubbies heart issues.

Doesn't that look scrumptious! I had heard of but never had cucumber

sandwiches until a few years ago when we went to an Afternoon Tea

Wedding reception for some friends of ours daughter. It was just

lovely, big tent on the lawn, great finger food, and tea, and the bride

and groom arrived in a horse drawn carriage, it was great, a memorable

wedding and reception. they collected teacups and saucers that were

in great condition from thrift and garage sales and we got to take it

home at the end of the day. What a nice idea!!

I like to put candles in mine!!

Course, they are fun to drink tea out of too!!

Back to the pic above, (sorta got side tracked) see the lil things

on the plate those are a mix of the seeds that they put on

everything bagels (that is what is in the grated cheese shaker).

We used to buy something called Everything bagel bread and

loved it, but they quit making it for some reason.

Probably the price of the seeds, I would guess!

The mix of seeds is poppy, sesame, and sunflower,

and then add some granulated garlic as well.

I just do an equal amount of each. I do grind the

sunflower seeds up some or else they want come

thru the holes on the cheese shaker.

Try it you will definitely like it, especially if you

have ever had an everything bagel and liked it!!

One lil warning: If you happen to work where

they do random drug testing, probably not a good

idea for you, cause poppy seeds can make you

fail a drug test, so if that is your situation you

could just leave them out all together.

Discovery #2 - Sweet Potato Fries by Alexia, think

I am spelling that right. They are a healthy sort of fry

made with good oils, and they have other regular potato fries

as well. We have tried some of those and they are delicious too.

We had the sweet potato fries for the first time last night, and they

are absolutely delicious. You just pop them in the

oven for about 18-20 mins. They taste good hot or cold.

A nice compliment to our grilled burgers.

Discovery #3 - A Quick Cure For Zits

Seriously.........I had read in something from an email once

that said if you got a zit to put peroxide on it, so yesterday,

I had two pop up and they were sore (I rarely get them but have

been eating some wonderfully delicious fat free brownies

lately) oh, that is another discovery, I will make it #4,

anyway, I put the peroxide on a cotton ball and wiped

it on and a few hrs later, I happened by the mirror so

decided to have a look and it didn't seem as red, and I

touched it and it was no longer sore, so I went back

and put some more on, checked again some hours

later, and it was not red anymore, so put some

more peroxide on, and wella...........

when I got up this morning it was gone!!

Oxy Pads eat your heart out!!

Discovery #4 - Course, you might not want this one

now since I revealed that bit of info about the 2 zits.

Should have made this 3 and that 4 , Sorry!!

But I will tell you just in case you dare!!

The brownies are a new discovery, I have never

seen them before, so don't know if they are new

on the market, but they are new to me.

Anyway, the mix is made by "Krusteaz" and

they are no fat brownies and they are delicious.

I made them Memorial day and added walnuts

and everyone raved about them.

I don't typically use any boxed anything for the

most part because of the hydrogenated oils,

but I have discovered that the Krusteaz mixes,

only the no fat ones tho, have no hydrogenated

oils. So they also have all sorts of muffin mixes

and a cornbread mix, I have even used that to

make an upside down berry cake, and it was very

good. They are not all that prevalent in the

grocery stores, I have found them at Walmart,

Target super center, and publix, but they

usually carry different varieties.

Krusteaz mixes are a very good thing,

as Martha would say!!

Well, hope you found something appealing

to your taste buds, and can try it out!!

Let me know what you think.

Hope you have a wonderful Evening,

we will...........cause we are resting tonight

and that is all we are doing.......... but exercising!!

Ugh!! I forgot about that!

Hugs and Blessings,

Nellie
