Me again, just finished Elizabethtown. Wonderful! Thanks for the suggestion,

I have eating dreams, too, and am relieved when I wake up and realize that those calories were only in my dreams.

Amy Lu's dry skin remedy sounds yummy, but I'd be afraid of ants :-)

Adorable sheep pic. I love Giada (wish we get her over here). Her Italian Chicken Stew is one of our faves. I've even made it with rice instead of pasta. Nummy.
I posted a special sky pic just for you today.

ooohhh pictures of fuzzy sheep really warm the heart!

Best dry skin fix:

Fill a small wide mouth jar with brown sugar. Add a skin friendly oil (apricot, grapeseed, etc.) mixed with a few drops of a nice smelling essential oil (like plumeria, lavendar, or citrus)until sugar is soaked.

Then keep said body scrub in the shower and use as needed! It's great! It's the only thing that takes care of my dry elbows. Afterwards the water beads up on my skin like a seal.

Nope - those are totally guilt free calories! Though I'm quite curious about your drink, as it sounds tasty.

As the current humidity level in NM is 10% I can ASSURE you that using body butter (not moisterizer) is the only way to go if you are feeling a little gatorish.

And I am glad to know that other people dream as vividly as I do!

Wow, I wish I dreamed like that!

No way do those calories count. I have Giada's cookbook. mmmm.... And her mom looks quite young. If you've seen Giada's sister their mom looks like her alot. Ok, so maybe I've watched the food channel too much.

Dry? Current humidity in Denver: 12%. I barely even notice any more - I just keep myself slathered in lotion and bath oil. But it does mean that when I block my knitting, it dries a lot faster. :)

MMMMMMMmmmmmmmmmm that sounds good. It's dry here too - humidity is at 16%, and that's WITH a 30% chance of rain. I need to go get some Neutrogena body oil. Luxury in a plastic bottle. Yum.

Yum, those sound like wonderful calories and those are NEVER counted.

Time to break out the vat of lotion, eh?

You do sound much improved today, Sandy, despite the flaking away to nothingness (believe me, I have it too! Yarn keeps snagging on my lizardly hands. Awful.)

No, those calories definitely don't count! And days like these make me so, so grateful for my Volvo's heated seats.

I'm pretty sure I've never had such a wonderful sounding food dream!

Heh, I hate the sort of cold where you drop into your car seat and it doesn't yield at all. Brr. Ouch.

Your dream sounds delicious! Giada's mom is actually very young-looking, beautiful, and stylish. She was in her "giada's Italian Holiday" show, and I was struck by how they look more like sisters than mother-daughter.

Flaking off here too. Gross, huh? I felt my elbows yesterday and it was disgusting. Last night when I was falling asleep I thought, uh oh, tomorrow is Tuesday. I wonder if I'll be grumpy. So far, so good, though. Maybe the tide has turned?

Dreams like that are the best!! I love it when dreams are so vivid that the memory of them sticks with me for the entire day. And, no, those calories don't count. :)

Go with your PimpMobile to pick up Dave for lunch. And have dulce la leche when you're out. Now THAT should make for a day that is the opposite of grumpy. Unfortunately those calories would count, but it'd be worth it. And you'd have laughs and laughs and laughs, which burn calories.

So Elizabethtown and Miracle, hm? I should put those on my Blockbuster list?

Nope, dream calories do NOT count, thank goodness.

How sweet is that sheep?? What a great photo!! xoxoxo

You know, as long as you are not Grumpy on this Tuesday, flakey is ok.
And that pile of dust? It could be me, too. It's amazing how DRY it can be.
But that rumblin', woman! We can hear that all the way down here. I thought it was a tank. Really. A tank. lol
