Shoes...Well sort of



I thought this was the cutest thing and part of the cost goes to Breast Cancer Research so really you just can't go wrong. It sits proudly on my desk at work, and I made sure to order some for the other shoe lovers I work with.




No food pics today. Huge Thanksgiving dinner yesterday at mom's. It was sooooooo yummy. She made "Boosey Pumpkin Pie" for dessert and it was awesome. Then I saw the recipe with the nutritional info. NOT GOOD!!! It was supposed to be 12 servings and I think ours was about 8. Can you say not figure friendly. I did manage to work out today. 30 mins treadmill, 30 mins Power Pilates, and some crunches. Every little bit helps. I may have worked off 1/8 of the pie...lol. I have to do it all again today at the inlaws. More turkey, gravy, and pie... what's a girl to do.

GEODUCK - AKA GOOEY DUCK

So the other day I was watching Anna and Christina's Grocery bag. If you have never seen it, they take cookbooks prepare the recipes and review the book. Anyway it is quite an entertaining show as they are not cooks. On this particular show they were reviewing a book of seafood recipes, so I thought it was odd that they were talking about Gooey Duck. Silly me I thought it was a duck. Well..... I WAS SOOOOOOO WRONG. They took the "duck" out of the bag to prepare it and this is what it looked like.







Does that look like any duck you've ever seen, I think not. Now I'm not a huge seafood fan. I like the usual haddock, scallops, lobster, salmon and the odd deep fried clam, but I just might be rethinking the whole clam thing after seeing this.
