Subway Sandwiches

The Subway franchise is one I would like to visit more. My grandfather always told me your tastebuds change as you grow older, and up until recently Subway offered nothing I was interested in other than their Meatball Sub. My cousin, at lesterluigi.net, recently told me about a tuna sub they had. Tuna has always been my weakness and I am often made fun of for it at work because no matter where we order in for lunch on Mondays, I always have some variation of a tunasalad sandwich.

I should definitely consider Subway more often on days that I don’t have enough time to pack my lunch.

Picky picky picky

My boyfriend would love to be a part of the wine of the month club, however I’m so picky I don’t know if I would actually drink any of it.

I enjoy a few kinds of wine, but I’m not really open to trying new things… and Shawn brings this to my attention a lot because I SHOULD try new things more because who knows if it’s actually something I might like. His current complaint are fried eggs, which I have already AGREED to try, I just don’t think he really belives me, cause honestly, I’m really not looking forward to the day he fries up and egg and says, “Here, try this!”

eugh.

On Weight Loss

I hope I’m not the only one who realizes that diet pills are a joke. If healthy weight loss could be achieved as easily as taking a pill, the majority of Americans would not be overweight.

Weight loss is achieved by healthy diet, exercise, and the will to make a change in your life.

Anytime I’ve ever lost weight, it’s mostly due to eating smaller portions. I’ve never been one to not eat whatever I want, however I saw results by eating half of my cheeseburger rather than all of it. No telling what I could manage if I actually tried ;)

Cables cables cables!

A few months ago I purchased a 32″ LCD television for our den and I just love having it! There are a million ports to plugin on it, including an HDMI cable. I really want to add HDTV onto our cable plan so we can view certain channels in high definition, but at this point it’s not exactly crucial. I’m not even sure how much extra it is a month!

You better watch out…

The holidays are right around the corner, or at least it feels like considering I’m spotting Christmas displays before Halloween even hits. It helps to start early when purchasing Christmas gifts, which I NEVER do! I’m trying to start thinking ahead and even setting aside some money to get Shawn those golf clubs he’s always wanted.

What do I want for Christmas? I really have no idea. Maybe the Canon lens for my camera that I’ve been drooling over for months now!

Universal Healthcare Anyone?

It’s really important to be sure you have good dental and health insurance. I’ve been insured with both for about 2 years now but I’ve not used my dental yet because I’m really scared of the dentist. I probably need to get my wisdom teeth taken out, for a while one of them was really bothering me but I never went.

Now Shawn is without insurance and has a tooth that is KILLING him. For the past week he’s been in nothing but pain over that tooth and I really wish there was something we could do about it.

Green Beans Galore

When I was in college we had a potluck lunch one day where everyone brought in a homemade dish. I consulted my grandfather for easy green bean recipes and ended up making a delicious grean bean casserole. It was a hit! Everyone loved it and I need to make it again soon, but I think I’ll wait for the colder months as it always reminds me of Christmas time.
