Forgive me for being LAME LAME LAME

Yes, please forgive me for being LAME LAME LAME! My scrap booking extravaganza and puttered out quite quickly! A dead camera battery is to blame....and me being lame doesn't help!

I will try to remedy this situation "toute suite"!

In the meantime....here is something RANDOM....

I bought some Greek Yogurt the other day because my cousins said it was from the Gods. Well, now that I think about it, he probably didn't say that since he claims he is anti-theist....or atheist....so he probably just said something like "this stuff is unbearable delicious." But anyway, I digress....I bought some....and to me, it got a thicker consistency than your plain old yogurt, to me its like a good sour cream...not the low fat kind, the real stuff. So, I looked at the label and it seems like it has less fat that the same amount of sour cream....so I think this would be a great substitute for it.

I used it in a 7 layered dip....which now that I think about it was probably more like 8 layers....this weekend and it worked out just groovy.

I love lower calorie things that are good for you and closely mimicker the real thing!

Now, I have to warn you that this stuff is more expensive than the regular stuff...I think this big old tub was around $4, which is pricey...but it is a good low cal sub for sour cream....so there you go!

I think I will postpone SCRAP BOOKING WEEK to NEXT WEEK so I Can be sure to get my camera all in order and functioning again. (Sorry people)

For now...be good....be good to yourself....eat healthy stuff....and go burn some calories!

Cooking Tips-What the heck do you do with plain yogurt?

I admit...I am cheating a little on this one....I found this link and just want to share, I thought these were some great ideas. This is from The Pioneer Woman web page...it is a page that I love and wanted to share. You can check out these tips for how to use plain yogurt and also check out her recipes....she has GREAT recipes and shows pictures and gives full instruction. She is the arsenal you want to have in your back pocket when you need a good recipe.

I always buy plain yogart for a specific recipe and then don't use it all and it just sits there unless I throw it in a smoothie or something. She has the same issues so I thought her ideas were great!

So, I hope you enjoy her and her sense of humor as much as I do...
