    What your favorite recipe?

    Here's my new summer favorite from Cooking Light May 2005 pg. 271 - the Italian Chicken Salad. I made up a batch (substituted cucumbers for artichokes) for myself and had to fight with my husband just to get some. Day after it is gone, he was asking when I was going to make it again....

    ARRGH! Car problem knowledge

    My DH was a mechanic for 20 years and though he hesitates to make a definite diagnosis online, he thinks that you probably were leaking anti-freeze. Check the anti-freeze level. It could be a leak or you could have a bad head gasket. With only 18,000 miles on it, it should be covered under...

    Aerobics Nostalgia

    I remember Joannie Greggins!! After my first baby was born, I bought an exercise album of hers (yes, a record album) that had pictures of some of the moves on the inside cover. I still remember doing a wood chopping move and dancing to "Footloose" while trying to work off that baby weight...

    Who here owns a good treadmill or treadclimber?

    I bought a Trimline T350HR1 a couple of years ago. It was around $1500. It goes up to a 12% incline, has a 30 year warranty on the motor, has 6 pre-set programs (but it lets you adjust the speed, incline, or time you want to spend) 2 programs you can set and keep as personal favorites, plus 2...

    Gym socks--still ranting

    Everyone (DH, me, adult children) at our house still calls them tennis shoes (or tennies) when they are looking for their exercise shoes. We've lived in Southern Minnesota all our lives so maybe it is a Southern thing.

    Let's talk about yoga!

    Has anyone tried INHALE - on the Oxygen Channel? I like it a lot...Steve Ross puts all the moves to Popular Music (e.g.Mustang Sally) and has you hold the poses a decent amount of time. Some of the poses are a little advanced but there are many different skill levels (and therefore...
