Slow weekend

Because it's a holiday weekend here in the U.S., not a lot of bloggers are posting and most of the comments I'm getting are from spambots.  I delete them as fast as I can.

If you're looking for something new, there is finally a new installment to the Two Fit Chicks and a Microphone podcast.  The guest was the author of After The Before and After.  I downloaded it to my iPad (trying to cut down on book clutter after a recent cleanup) and have read the first few chapters. I will do a full review later, but it reminds me a lot of what I'm doing on this blog, chronicling the struggles of trying to re-lose weight after arriving at that "ta-da!" moment and then backsliding into old habits.  Like me, she seems to have realized that she had not dealt with the underlying issues that prompted the original gain, and is trying to tackle those this time around.

Hope that everyone is enjoying the weekend. I'm going to a fireworks-viewing party later on tonight and am going to bring this hummus. I have already tested the recipe and know that it will be a hit.  It will also give me something safe to snack on, as I am bringing plenty of veggies to go with it.
