Bon-appetite

In week two of our "Biggest Looser" contest, I only barely lost 1 pound after 5 pounds the week prior. It is after all not easy just with diet. Anyway, our fridge is packed with lots of veggies and M is just creatin' lots of yummy salads and my favorite... salsa and baked pita chips which are heaven. Over our anniversary weekend, we went to the chick flick "Julie and Julia", a parallel story of old Julia Child and a woman in N.Y. who needed an outlet from work. The story was nice but the food looked awesome and you could almost smell it. There was a scene before the girlie even started looking at Julia's stuff where she presented her husband with a simple buttery crusty bread with a tomato vegetable concoction on top. Now that's what I'm talkin' bout!!!

Well, my mouth watered as well as M's and now it has been discussed that the single most important dish of the film is now M's quest, boeuf bourguignon. It may take some time to put into action but three things I know for sure are...

1. It sucks to be on a diet even though the pain is worth the desired outcome.
2 I can't wait to be off this diet to pig out on all the stuff I've seen that has made my mouth water for more than two weeks.
3. I am sooo fortunate to have M who so does enjoy the "Art of Cooking"
