Weight Watchers has introduced a new line of cheeses that come on four great spreadable varieties. They come in little wedges so you know just how much cheese you are having and at one point each, they make the perfect afternoon snack when you need a little energy boost to help get you through the day.
Each wedge is spreadable so you can just dip your cracker in or use a knife. Whichever floats your boat.
We have been snacking and trying out the different varieties for several days. I am not a big cheese eater. Normally if I am eating cheese it is because it is on something. However Marissa and Tate loves cheese and could eat it 24/7.
I personally liked the Garlic and Herb one. Tate likes the Swiss the best. Marissa liked them all (of course she is our Mikey, she will eat anything). The only one I haven’t tried is the jalapeno variety…and since I am allergic, I passed. Bric said it was good though. I haven’t tried the cream cheese yet. I am still trying to decide what I am going to make with it.
- The new Weight Watchers Spreadable Cheese Wedges come in four mouth-watering varieties – Original Swiss, Garlic & Herb, Parmesan Peppercorn and Jalapeño Pepper – and are perfect for spreading onto crackers, apple slices, celery sticks and more for a deliciously fun and easy snack. Each rich and creamy wedge has only 30 calories, packs more fiber than the leading competitor and comes with a POINTS® value of 1. The wedges have a suggested retail price of $2.99-$3.99.
- The new eight-ounce variety of Weight Watchers Reduced Fat Cream Cheese Spread is ideal for baking and snacking alike with pre-measured servings and the same easy-to-spread goodness that has made Weight Watchers cream cheese products a hit. In addition to its flavor merits, the spread boasts 40 percent less fat than regular cream cheese and a POINTS® value of 1 per serving. The cream cheese spread has a suggested retail price of $1.69-$1.99.
- Look for both products at national retailers such as Wal-Mart and Kroger.

Oh my stinking heck. PLEASE come shoot me. I have no idea what in the world I was thinking but apparently it wasn’t straight. Someone sent one of those extreme workouts on DVD over here and I thought “Aww what the heck, I am going to try it” cause ya’ll know I like to eat…which is the real reason I like to cook. And well, I could stand to loose a few pounds (or many, we aren’t being nit-picky here).
Anyway, some alien must have took temporary possession of my body because I decided that I was going to check out the workout tape and see just how hard it is. Ummm, let me start by saying that I took out a hit on the person who gave me the cursed thing after I was finally able to catch my breath, decide that I wasn’t actually having a heart attack and cast the alien that took up temporary residence in me to the bottom of the pits of Hades!
BE WARNED…if the box says turbo jam on the front, that isn’t where people like me should start. People like me need to start with the one that says Snails Pace. Seriously, I have no idea what in the heck I was thinking but I can assure you that if I ever think it again I am going to be calling you to come and perform an exorcism.

The last few weeks I have seen more red than you can imagine. If you remember all those tomatoes I had…when I made tomato relish and put some up in the freezer…well, my counter tops are all red again:
I need to be making salsa tonight and getting it ready to can. But golly I am tired. We have been working our tails off the last few days. Late nights, early mornings and long days…but wow are we ever getting tons of stuff accomplished. The thoughts of standing over a hot stove right now just isn’t appealing to me very much. The on the flip side the thought of having some homemade salsa is sooo enticing. It is like this huge tug of war going on in my mind.Like when you really want to loose weight the easy way but you keep hearing about thing like an apidexin scam. You really want to but you just can’t bring yourself to do it.
So, I may be in the kitchen all night, I may not. I just can’t decide.
I am going to have to get to it soon though, either that or loose all that red acidic deliciousness.

Ahh, the joys of summer…hot days lounging in and around the pool, hanging out at the beach. Always wearing shorts or a swimsuit. For all of us ladies, that means we have to shave…and shave often. Because of that we need a good shave cream.
Pure Silk Shave Cream formulas are designed especially for women and contain skin conditioners and emollients to protect skin from the razor’s edge and make our legs soft and smooth. The ingredients in each formula work to reduce friction from the razor blade and help you get a smoother, more comfortable shave in sensitive areas as well. Each Pure Silk product contains aloe for deep moisturizing, has a rich lather to protect against nicks and cuts, all while providing a comfortable close shave. Each can is made seamless and slim out of 100% aluminum so that they are more user-friendly and completely rust-free.
The Pure Silk line has some fabulous scents…Cherry Blossom, Citrus Zest, Plumeria, Peaches & Cream, Raspberry Mist, Melon Splash and Coconut & Oat Flour. The 9.5 ounce cans have a suggested retail price of $1.79 and the 2.25 ounce travel size can has a retail price of $.99. All are available in drugstores and mass market retailers nationwide.
I am in love with the Citrus Zest. It just smells happy and sunny. Erin’s all time favorite is the Raspberry Mist. I can’t wait to try the Plumeria. I think it is one I am really going to like as well. I have never tried a Pure Silk product that I didn’t like.
