 OMG. Have you ever had the forces of nature conspiring against you? No? Well don’t ever. It’s no fun. There are many, many reasons I haven’t posted since last Friday but none are thrilling enough to detail here so I’ll just say two things. I’m sorry! And…I missed you guys! Moving on… Have you guys checked out my homegirl …

 First, I should say that I don’t do the most scientific product reviews in the world. Sure, I try to commit to trying stuff plain and paying attention to how it his my palet, but on the overall, I kinda wing it. Well today I REALLY winged it and now I sort of regret that. Why? Well because I …

This is a true story of how one little sugar-free caramel pudding cup became a very big deal in my life. I’ll try to be brief. Basically, I was in Wal-Mart and I saw some sugar-free caramel pudding cups. Having never seen them before, I was excited. Brought them home, tasted then and…ennnhhh. They were o.k. But they needed some …

So this protein shake was born a few years ago, around St. Patrick’s Day. And you might find this hard to believe…but I…am not Irish. Still I’m inspired by St. Patrick’s Day. National/Cultural pride is a great thing and it should be celebrated. Although, today’s shake isn’t really about that. It’s triple chocolate. And much as I am proud of my …

Break out your ramekins, kids, it’s time for more fun! Next up: peach pie! When trying to think of something sweet I experienced a phenomenon I call “information overload.” Quite simply, there were too many choices and I couldn’t decide which one to move forward with. If you’ve been keeping up with this blog for a minute, you know I …

~~posted by Jen 1 word: YUM! I made a pretty cool discovery not too long ago. Y’all know I love to add Sugar Free Jello pudding mix to Greek Yogurt and protein shakes, right? (Side note for our newer readers: if you haven’t had my Better Than Sex dessert, that one is a must taste!)  S’anyway! A couple weeks ago, I …

  This recipe was born of a craving for cake. And not just something cake-flavored. I wanted a cake. But as we all know, cake usually ends in calamity (whether that be dumping, a blood sugar drop or just intense guilt). So I had to rethink cake. I know there is sugar-free cake mix . But see…here’s the thing about me and …

~by Nikki  Oh Dairy Queen…DQ…whatever you want to call it!!! I used to love you (and your blizzards)! But now I can’t anymore!!! Piety? No. Not me! I am a firm sugar dumper and anything from their Blizzard menu takes me from here to Dumpsville in about 3 minutes. Recently, I decided to take the advice that we’ve given …

~by Nikki  Someone please tell me why it is that I can perfectly assemble a 4 oz. parfait but the damn Mocha Forrest Trifle eluded me??? That’s quite a name, innit? This started as a recipe make-over request from my Mary B. at OH (and who also lives in the same state as me…she’s super cool and has done fabulously …

~by Nikki This really was the MOST flattering shot I could get of my beloved trifle. Ok, so usually our posts are a “how-to” of your favorite foods. Because we do a pretty good job (if I do say so myself) of testing recipes and making sure we are on top of our game. This post is not like that …
