Three Things Tuesday

1.) I got this recipe/idea from my sweet friend and FABULOUS baker Krislyn a couple years ago. I remember making it and everyone just thought it too cute. So it's time to bust it out again since it's Easter Week. I usually just use chow mein noodles and mix them in a couple bags of melted chocolate chips and maybe butterscotch chips. Add a little vanilla. Form some little "nests" on wax paper. Add some Reece Peanut Butter eggs or Mini Cadbury eggs and let set in the fridge. (I have also made them a little healthier using Fiber One bran cereal!)

2.) When my darling friend Katie ordered a diet coke, she literally got it in a GLASS JUG. Look how big that baby is!!!!!!!!!!!! It was seriously like the size of her torso! P.S. At the Mariner game, I noticed you could get "unlimited pop" for $11 dollars. I wonder how much money the vendors make on that. I also would love to know how many people order it??????

3.) I LOVE bacon. Always have and probably always will. But Weight Watchers and bacon aren't necessarily the best of friends. INTRODUCING: TURKEY BACON. I was skeptical. I thought I would rather not be able to eat bacon than have some stupid substitution that tried to taste as good as bacon but wasn't. I gave it a try and I am hooked. You seriously CANNOT taste the difference. In the morning... for BLT's... Yum, yum, yum. While we are on the topic of bacon? What do you think about Denny's "baconalia?" On the menu? A bacon ice cream sundae. Maple-flavored ice cream, hickory smoked bacon, SYRUP and yes more bacon. Hmm... I dunno...
