The Saucony Progrid Omni 8

Now that we all know I'm indulging in brownies and cookies, I thought I should post what I'll be concentrating on now instead of eating sugar :) These are my fascinating new running shoes. Why are they fascinating? It won the Runner's World Editor's Choice award for June 2009 (really, there's a special sticker on the box) so it must be a fabulous shoe. HA! I just went back to buy inserts. Maybe my next post will be about the protein bars I made...or homemade Gu...

An Old Fav of Mine

I'm killing you all on posts lately! Ok, actually I'm just catching up...
I felt like making these so I did. It's "The Neiman Marcus Cookie". I just found out that there are actually two versions, the one that was sent out by angry email from the lady that supposedly paid $250 for the recipe and the other one posted on the Neiman Marcus site. The one I made has oatmeal in it (therefore it is healthy), the one on the company site is made with espresso. I'll have to try that one another time.

Labor Day Weekend Brownies!

I didn't really labor over them, but they were fun to make. I forget what Betty Crocker called these, but they are brownies with oreos and then vanilla frosting on top with more crushed oreos. I think they are made even better by the frosting, my friends preferred sans frosting. (I can't explain it either!)
This photo is especially amusing because of my ingenious cropping; Silk now says Suk and that's rather funny :)

Sesame-Tofu Stir-Fry

Operation Tofu

Hooray! We like tofu! I made Lasagna Rolls and they were devoured by everybody! And they look cute too:)


Tofu Cookies too! These are good but would be pretty flavorless without the chocolate chips.

August - Ready?!

The next challenge is TOFU!! Just kidding, the actual challenge is finding me a job, but you could make things with Tofu while you're looking!
