So I heard great things about the Fiber One PB and Oats bars. I was at Target today and saw both the Fiber One bars and the Target version and compared the facts. Targets version had .5 less grams of fat and 10 less calories. I went for the Target brand. ![]()

Lazy Ass Employees
October 2nd, 2009 by prettythoughtsSo I did my usual every 2 week stop at Vince and Joe’s for my chicken breast and meat. Normally I go on Thursdays but I didn’t make it there yesterday so I went today. I get 10 lbs of chicken breast because in order to get it for $1.99 per lb you have to buy 10 lbs… so anyways I always ask them to split it in 2 five lb bags and they always say ok. Today, I was told NO and when I told her that I come every 2 weeks and ALWAYS get it like this she told me I didn’t! LOL then I described the lady who does it for me and she said that she wasn’t supposed to be doing that. Oh GEEZ! So I told her she lost out on a $20 sale and I proceeded to the manager. The manager was very apologetic and was quick to go get me my chicken, split into 2 bags. Lordy lordy there are some lazy ass people out there. How hard is it really? I worked in retail for 4 years and people had some crazy requests like 5 different transactions or some other BS, if that’s what they want you do it! I mean unless it’s something totally off the wall.

Beef Enchiladas (Crock Pot)
October 2nd, 2009 by prettythoughtsJust in case anyone is craving them, I make them different every time because I never write down the damn recipe! LOL My sister-in-law gave me a great recipe and now I just wing it on my own. But here is what I did today, I am making kind of a lot so here you go…
Brown 2 lbs of beef and put it in the crock pot
add 1 can of chicken broth (maybe less mine was kinda liquidy)
add 1 can of cream of chicken soup
add 1 can of red enchilada sauce
add 1 can of diced tomatoes with chiles in them
then I added half of a tiny can of green chiles which I wish I wouldn’t have cuz then kindof have a green peppery taste… anyways…
Let that cook on high for like 3 or 4 hours then take the soft tortilla shells and if you want you can line the bottom of the shell with refried beans. If not, just scoop out the mixture from the crock pot and put it in the shell. Roll the shell like an enchilada. Make as many to fill a glass pan (spray the pan first) then top with shredded cheese, a can of red enchilada sauce, and black olives. You can put tomato chunks or onion or whatever you like on top. Then bake that in the oven til its warm enough and the cheese is melty. DEEEEE-LISH! I also have an easy side of spanish rice from a packet, lol. Sounds good enough for me! Enjoy.

Snack Time!
October 2nd, 2009 by prettythoughtsFor some reason I am in LOVE with night time snack time. I can go all day eating totally healthy (newly after I had my daughter) but when it comes to night snacking, I am all over it. After dinner I usually want something sweet immediately. If we finish dinner later I will usually just have a small sweet treat, but if we have a smaller dinner and it ends up still being pretty early, I willgo for a salty snack followed by a sweet one! I can’t help myself ever since I became a Mommy. <3

Quaker Oats Oatmeal
October 2nd, 2009 by prettythoughtsThe Quick Oats oatmeal by Quaker has an amazing recipe for oatmeal cookies. Of course it calls for raisins but I add chocolate chips instead! They are so delicious and I make them about once a month. I have made them many times in the normal cookie form and once in the pan version. I cannot decide which way I like them better. Both versions are very yummy and I really like to bake. Oatmeal is an excellent food, it makes for an extremely healthy breakfast and also serves as a very satisfying dessert. ![]()

Why Kroger SUCKS
August 24th, 2009 by prettythoughtsKroger SUCKS because…………………….
A. Their beef is pretty gamey
B. They advertise baby food on sale, and their SALE price is still a penny more than Meijer’s regular price
C. I bought milk at Meijer over a week ago and then I needed more to make some homeade frosting so I stopped at Kroger 2 days ago… the milk I bought a week ago at Meijer has a later expiration date than the Kroger milk I bought 2 days ago
D. Kroger brand ice cream that they advertise at an amazing price can’t be called ice cream, because it’s not ice cream
E. Kroger brand tortilla chips have about 10 chips inside a regular size chip bag
This is all I can think of that the moment… but I’m sure I will remember more… ![]()
