I have gone to using authentication for comments. The spammers have been hitting me hard for a bit and I made some changes to cause their comments to not auto publish but it was also stopping some of the real comments. I want all my real commenters to be able to post right away so this is why I decided to use the authentication. If there are any problems with it not working please let me know, my email is on the main page. I really hope this does not stop comments from coming in. I'm sorry that I am having to do it that way....I really hate spammers. I also apologize to anyone who had a comment that had to wait on me to find it in my mail and approve it.

Well the dishwasher is ordered and should be here Friday. I got a Maytag one and I think I am going to be happy with it. It's a good week for it to get here too since it will motivate me to cook more and avoid the crowds from race weekend. I'm about 30 minutes from the Bristol raceway....wish I was even more cause I hate the traffic and I don't like the racing either. BTW if you like it that is great, I have a lot of friends that do but due to being a race widow with my first marriage I learned to hate it with a passion.

I found a cool treat, it's the Quaker mini delights in the cinnamon streusel flavor...they are yum. Nice treat with coffee for only 2pts. I have also tried another Kashi meal, the lemongrass coconut chicken one. It was ok but not one of my favorites. I probably won't buy it again as they are much better ones out there.

Weather is warming up again. It's suppose to be 80 by the weekend. I think it will be good for a little grilling....maybe a lot of grilling. Which is good I need to fire up the thing before the wasps try and take over it. I will also probably need to mow and get all the tall wild onions under control. Need to get some more walks in to get in better shape for pushing the mower over the whole yard. I hadn't walked the last few days cause I cleaned house, super spring cleaning style, over the weekend for almost five hours straight. I was so sore...this is the first day my ham strings have not ached. I think it was all the bending with the vacuum hose, sweeping and mopping that got me. But hey my house looked great so it was worth it. Not to mention it was quiet a few activity points I am sure.
