BuffyBear's Journal, 21 Jul 13

JMA312 - (from yesterday) Funny how all of our ex-husbands turned up in the conversation - LOL. To explain my present situation: two people can say the exact same words but have entirely different meanings. When my X made comments about my weight it was with contempt in his voice.  

Hey Buffy..so glad your not married to your ex now..don't let what he says to you bother you...he has nothing to do with how you are now..At least the nuts are on your WOE...Take care of you...:O) 

Bren - RE: The Ex Husband - that makes 2 of us! And you are spot on about the nuts. I just need to plan them into my day better (NOT eating them just before bedtime).  

I love nuts too... And they are so good for you, so don't fret over a few...That's my rational at least! But I was careful to not buy them for the party today, just to be safe, knowing I'd already have many temptations. Hope you're having a good Sunday, my friend! 

Ruth - Yes, my poor frail joints need all the lubrication they can get!  

I did virtually the same thing a few nights ago, but with sliced almonds. They just taste so good and - even though I shouldn't have done it - and are better for me than other things I could have eaten.  

Me too on the nuts (but you already know that). And they are good for you, Ruth is right. Nuts vs. cookies or cake?? Nuts every time. What's your latest tip, Buffy Bear? 

Grocery shopping yesterday the mixed nuts were screaming at me to take them off the shelf - but I kept running - right to the crispy broccoli salad (with way to much dressing, sunflower seeds and dried cranberries). Woe is me. :) What are we to do but try harder today. 

Great job, ladies. Neptune, did you try to make that broccoli salad yourself? Sounds amazing. I had salad today with pine nuts and pomegranate seeds. yum.
