Daily Tips: Ideal Bite Site *Deal Ended*

This looks like a pretty cool site called Ideal Bite for anything summer related, as it has tips of all kinds--greener living, BBQ tips, 10 Easiest produce to grow and beach and bikini tips. You can even sign-up to have daily tips emailed to you.

I'd already decided that I was going to add radishes and carrots to my garden next year. Have any of you ever grown a nasturtium?

Blog Post: Making Meals Out of Deals

My fellow Chicagolander, Annie of Chi-Annie: at the Table, has a posting that you'll want to check out HERE, especially if you from the Chicagoland area! She's written up how to make meals out of this week's deals and has meals for a family of 4 at around $40 for the week.

Great posting, Annie! I'll keep coming back for more ideas!

Lifetime TV Shows To Check Out

For those of you with the Lifetime TV channel, here are a couple TV shows worth checking out.

Cook Yourself Thin - They take recipes and make them healthier. The one episode I watched, they took a 3,000 calorie meal plan for one day and changed it into 1,200 calories. They then follow their one guest and 6 weeks later, they check back to see if she's lost a dress size. They also have a book out called Cook Yourself Thin Cookbook, but I haven't checked it out from the library yet. This one is on at 4:00 and 4:30 CST. While you may not be completely crazy about all the recipes, it might give you helpful ideas on how to make your dishes healthier, too.

Army Wives - This one doesn't start back up until June 7th and airs on Sunday evenings at 9PM CST. It's similar to a Desperate Housewives type show but based on the lives of Army Wives and Army Women.

Just in case you were looking for some shows to watch over the summer.
