I love grocery shopping. Theres something about it. I especially love buying fresh fruits and vegetables. And then theres the unknown of what will you make with all of these items? After starting Weight Watchers I really started to enjoy grocery shopping. I'd search for all sorts of new healthy foods and then just the possibility of enjoying them and eating healthy. I love it!

I also love different packaging. This cheese reminds me of deli cheese you buy in a larger city.



And then just some new items. I've tried the cheese on crackers and it is delicious! And for WW one wedge is 1 point! Yum!


And then, here are my latest vlogs. I have been very active on youtube. I love my youtube family!

New show idea

The beauty of being best friends with someone for over 20 years is that you can start to like completely different things, and be down right opposites, and it doesn't matter anymore.

Kate and I met in first grade, and were practically twins. People often mistook us for sisters, even through high school.

But of course, after school people change. And we started to drift towards different interests. We're still best friends but I often compare us to the City Mouse and the Country Mouse. I of course, am the city mouse and she the country.

We often talk about how we both want to travel and see the world. However she would love to go deep into the jungles and although that sounds fun to me, I would also want to see the city and nightlife and experience the nice amenities that are offered.

So we've decided that we should have our own travel show. We'll go to a city somewhere in the world, and she will show the viewers how to rough it. Go out in the wilderness, eat bugs sleep in the dirt you name it. And I will show them the nightlife, shopping and amusement.

I think its brilliant. Now we just need lots of money to get this off the ground! This is my new goal to make come true. I need to work for Travel Channel or National Geographic Traveler.

High maintenance or just high standards?

I don't try to be difficult, its not like I woke up this morning and decided to be a total ice bitch. But unfortunately I am entirely way too picky. Ask anyone who has EVER asked me where or what I want for a meal. I never know but will shoot down any idea you present to me. I have to be in the right mood for burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches in general and numerous other items of American culture. Also, on an unAmerican note, I hate apple pie. Bleh cooked fruit is gross.

So of course today, while trolling Saugatuck with my folks, the question came up of where to eat. Nothing of course sounded good to me, I was hungry but no ideas. We went to a buffet. I then decided to inform them that I hate buffets. There is never anything I really like so its a waste of money. The food is made and then just sits there under heat lamps while gross people grab at it with tongs that I'm supposed to also use.

On another note, most meat disgusts me. I hate when food resembles the animal it came from. Don't put a whole chicken in front of me, or a pig, or a lobster. Crab legs I'm ok with, but not the whole crab. I don't want it to watch while I eat it. That's weird!

And I can in no way pinpoint something that will always sound good to me. Maybe pasta, or sushi. That's about it. I'm horribly picky and have somehow managed to become overweight. Interesting. I don't eat fast food unless mandatory or a direct craving.

So take me as I am, I'm insanely picky. I apologize but it is what it is.
