Duuhh!! Didn't look at original date, just at the last post. Do I feel sorta silly??? Yep, you bet!
Story of my life - "a day late and a dollar short". Didn't know there was going to be a live chat, but dropped in to see what was up --- about the time everyone was signing off. Sorry I missed it.
Hi everyone! I am feeling energized today!
Well ladies .. I'm going to call it a night .. you all take care and thanks again everyone for coming!!! We'll do this soon and will announce it in the community.
Nite all ..
I would love to Ranae - just let me know what you'd like me to do. Take care everyone!
Hope you migraine is better and stays at bay, Miss Trudie .. and thanks for joining us tonight.
As always, Goku .. it's been my pleasure. Thanks bunches, Sweetie! Know how tight finances are and fertility testing certainly comes first.
Yes! Now my names Finally match! LOL!
Have a great evening Trudie....hope your head is feeling much better.
Well Miss Trudie .. know how busy you are with your CL duties .. but it would be amazing if you found a little time here and there to share your culinary talents with the community .. as a "challenge" post.
We're wanting to engage members to also join in and be an "active" part of the challenge .. buy-in .. you think??
thnx Ranae! i will try not to my fertility testing is already pushed bk as well!! its pretty hard so many other things to do and pay!!
Lucinda-me as well i have my DH's name i am definetly not hispanic either lol!! that is different with ur first name!!
I hear you! I personally love them! Asparagus being amongst my very favorites.....now to convince my family.....but shhhhhh, don't tell them that I mix raw spinach in with the lettuce for salad. What they do not know will not hurt them.
Nope but I should. Oh I love it! I've been fighting migraine all day so am calling it a night. I will try and join earlier next time. Have a good one!
It's been sooo very fun talking with you tonight!!! Don't put off that allergy testing. I worked for an allergist and it can really be helpful to know.
Have fun with Prince Caspion!!!
I do think they should be identified. Sorry I mixed that up - I went through everything pretty quick.
Growing up we only ever had frozen peas or else carrots and parsnips roasted with a roast until there was nothing left. When I started taking all my cooking classes I was so amazed at how delicious the vegetables could be. Yes, I think we should teach people that. We have so many that come to the forum wanting to lose weight and saying they hate vegetables.
Yummy! Sounds great with the hummus.....glad that it came out all right in the end! Some of the best things come about by incident/accident in the kitchen for me I have discovered.
Well .. Trudie .. I give you an A+++ for experimenting!!! Have you posted the hummus recipe??
TY Ranae! I think as a challenge it would be great to try new foods!! just me personally i think i need allergy testing i have had several veggies and fruit burn my lips and scratch my throat im just a lil hesitant!!
I am off to watch prince caspian lol!! you ladies have a great nite!! Nice chatting with yall!!
Love the "favors" idea .. now just got to get a husband .. lolll
Maybe on the vegetables .. do you think we ought to help people learn how to cook them correctly? I never would have learned to like asparagus without a friend teaching me how to cook it el-dente .. or grill it.
In your answer regarding the post headings .. do you think the challenge posts should be identified or not?
Had a rough cooking night. We were making falafel's and don't yet have a go to recipe. Well the one I tried tonight didn't work too much plus my husband cooked the chickpeas after soaking and you don't do that. We couldn't fry them so had to bake them for a very long time so they would stay together. But, my hummus was amazing and it all came together fine in the end.
wonko .. it's been a pleasure talking again and you are most welcome. thank you for coming!!! Please stay in touch and let the community know how you're doing and when we can assist .. and I promise to do the same.
goku .. no problem .. just one of those random wild ideas that float through my brain .. lolll definitely don't want you to try this if they bother you .. but what do you think about it as an idea as part of the challenge? another activity to throw in the mix now and then? Just know that I so very much appreciate all you do in the community and your friendship .. you are AmAzInG ..
Sorry Goku.....I didn't see that....gotta learn to keep up with Live Chat. Yes. Martinez is my last name. I inherited from my husband. Lucinda has always been my first name, got that from my mother, although my family is not Hispanic. Long story! lol
On the question I think we should encourage new members to participate in everything with the challenges mixed in.
Sorry, was reading all the past posts. Some good stuff tonight!
In the past my husband and I challenged each other in the weight loss area with rewards of "favors" to the winner of whatever they chose. It was fun. Now we do it together because we have to.
On the topic of liking vegetables, I never did until I learned how to cook them right and now I do love them.
Hi Trudie!!! So nice of you to join us!!! How have you been?
Trudie, Lucinda and ChitChat .. or anyone else I missed (previously asked wonko and goku) .. would you mind reading up a little on the question I asked about challenge posts and let me know what you think???
wonko .. Thanks SOOO Muchhhh for joining us tonight .. it was really nice to catch up and look forward to talking again soon.
