RE: Karen with an Thanks Karin - that's what I thought. I just want to make sure I got the right size before I order more. I got an email saying they were shipped - hopefully they'll get here quick!

I ordered two pairs as well. Karin - I noticed it said "closeouts". Does that mean that we're out of luck when they run out? As soon as I get them, I'll have to decide whether to stock up.

That helps a lot Karin - thank you so much! I'm going to order these - they sound perfect. Julie

Karin/Randi - are these true to size or do they run big/small? What size are you normally and what size did you order? TIA Julie

Not everything at TJ's is great. Definitely not. I find the fish to be unexciting and blah at the prices they charge. I can definitely do better at my grocery fish counter. Same goes for some of the meat and their prepared foods.

I love their almond butter (although the price keeps creeping up). Inka chips are a new find too (roasted plaintains) - they satisfy my potato chip craving. DD loves the Nori Maki (seaweed wrapped crackers). The fat free cottage cheese is the best I have tasted. I refuse to buy any from the...

For those that make these, how far in advance can you do these? Thanks! Julie

RE: reviving last yr's holiday treats!!! Thanks for bringing this up. I was wondering if Dani (or someone else) could tell us how far in advance you can make the Oreo Balls. Those were a huge hit last year but I made them the night before.

That's a lot of money. I pay $19 for each of my memberships - having both makes it worthwhile for me. One is actually a Ballys membership that isn't advertised. I told them I was only going to spin one day a week and needed the cheapest possible deal. I can only go three days a week for that...

There is nothing like a live class that you love. I belong to two gyms *just* for spinning. I also own a spin bike which I love but I'd much rather be in a live class if I can. I'm not thrilled with the music on the spin vids/dvds. I have recently tried the cardiocoach on my spin bike and it...

Good luck and have fun. A very good friend of mine and her DH are also running it. She'll be going from the L.A. area.

I have the longer standing bag filled with sand. Here is a link. Mine is solid black (thank goodness) http://www.innovare.com/revgear/product.asp?dept%5Fid=5&pf%5Fid=42060 Even filled with sand, it can move a little which can be annoying. I solved that by backing it against a wall. I...

This does sound good - what flavor pudding did you use?

Hmmm - interesting. Thanks everyone. I need to get this book too. Basic info that I seem to need nowadays for some reason. Re spanx - I bought them because I hate panty lines and now I'm hooked. Not a big fan of thongs.

Nancy - I don't handwash them either. I put them in the gentle cycle - cold water and hang dry. They last forever too. So what kind of pants are the best to wear?
