Life with regrets

There will always be things you regret or wish you could do over. Lately I've reflected some on how I can try to live a life with LESS regrets.

Cherish those close to you and treat them well. You never know when you may lose them.

If you intend to see someone but keep putting it off... Try not to wait a second longer. Make solid plans or it may never happen.

Make good decisions. Try not to do things you will look back on and be embarrassed.

Don't wait... Get up and do! Plan it, make it happen. Don't watch your life from the sidelines.... Live it.

Scones with strawberry purée

With all of the crops dying from drought it's nice to see the strawberries are doing well somewhere in the world. They are practically giving them away at the stores. I bought a huge Costco sized pack.



I puréed a bowl full to pour over the top of my scones. The rest I rinsed in vinegar water to keep their freshness.

Scone recipe can be found on the recipe page of this blog

Favorite Snack, watch out its addictive

Popcorn (pop secret homestyle)
Tabasco
Parmesan Cheese (ground)

Generously sprinkle the tabasco over the popcorn and add Parmesan to taste. I buy Kraft Parmesan in the large green plastic can and the largest Tabasco I can find. Whenever I find the popcorn on sale I stock up like a mad women.

Abandoned blog???

Nope, just on a hiatus. Went on a monthlong vacation traveling to London, Tallin (in Estonia), and Colorado! Colorado was the best!

HG's Por Qué No? Mexi Pizza Let's Talk About Mex', Baby! When it comes to super-caloric fast-food items, we're often left asking, POR QUÉ? (That's Spanish for "WHY?") But one bite of our new guilt-free swap, and "Why not?" becomes the more appropriate question -- hence the name of our recipe. Just chew it! Ingredients: Two 6-inch corn tortillas 1/3 cup frozen ground-beef-style soy crumbles (like the kinds by Boca and Morningstar Farms) 1/2 tsp. taco seasoning mix 2 tbsp. fat-free refried beans 2 tbsp. taco sauce 3 tbsp. shredded reduced-fat Mexican-blend cheese 1/4 cup chopped tomato Directions: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray a baking sheet with nonstick spray. Lay tortillas on the baking sheet, side by side, and bake for 6 minutes. Flip tortillas. Bake until crispy, about 6 more minutes. Leave oven on. Meanwhile, bring a skillet sprayed with nonstick spray to medium heat. Add soy crumbles and sprinkle with 1/4 tsp. taco seasoning. Cook and stir until hot and well mixed, about 2 minutes. Spread 1 tortilla with refried beans. Top with seasoned soy crumbles, followed by the other tortilla.
