Mama needs a new apron....

I am the laziest blogger ever. I know I haven't updated in ....oh, who knows how long. Bu the sad part is that I DO have several recipes to add, I'm just too lazy to download the pics off my camera or type up the recipes.

What I am NOT too lazy to do is read other people's blogs and find this little contest from Pennies on a Platter. And fast forward to 6-7 months from now when my baby lives outside my body and is eating food.....I plan on making my own baby food (and blogging it), which means pureeing everything, which means liquid food everywhere, which means liquid food on my clothes. So I'm crossing my fingers that I win this apron because Mama's gonna need it.

Cooking up Something Different....

Like a bun in the oven. :)

My Weight Watchers eTools subscription has been temporarily discontinued due to my pregnancy, but I will be returning to WW just as soon as I am back on my feet, post-partum (due date is November 2, so just in time for the holidays!).

If you would like to assist me in figuring out point values for recipes I am unable to calculate at this time, both myself and my loyal readers would much appreciate it. Please post in comments and I will update each recipe when points are supplied. Thanks!

FINE! I GET IT! I'M IT!!!!!

OK! I've been tagged by about 10 people and I was trying to avoid it but now I feel bad. So here are my five fun foodie fashionista facts (say that 5 times fast!). And not to be a Debbie Downer, but I'm ending the line here. I can't think of anyone to tag since everyone has been tagged like 100 times already.

1. I have made a vow to seek out farmers markets in my area come this summer. There is an Amish farm stand down the road from our house which is as close as they get out by us, but I am determined to buy more local and organic produce.

2. I am the BBQer in my house. And I'm OK with that. I love to cook and I love grilling. And I really can't deal with my husband asking every 2 minutes, "Is this done yet?"

3. When we moved into our house 2 years ago, we didn't flatten any of the moving boxes we used. We just piled them up in the basement. We have mountain of boxes thats about 10 feet wide and 5 feet tall. But at least we're ready for the next time we move!

4. I'm secretly loving that Mylie Cyrus song thats on the radio right now. I can't get it out of my head.

5. I'm going to Alaska in May! We just booked our trip this past week. I'm so excited!

A Makeover for this Fashionista

You might notice a few changes going on with the Foodie Fashionista in the coming weeks. I felt like I needed a makeover. New logo, new fonts, new colors...maybe soon a change of address! But nothing yet. Stay tuned and thanks for reading the ramblings of the Foodie Fashionista.

My New Favorite Blog

http://uglyblogfood.blogspot.com

Someone out there sure has a lot of free time on their hands, but thats OK since they are making it easier for me to find things to laugh at.

And I would be honored to be called out by the Ugly Food Blogger. I recognize that I don't make the most delicious items and that I am not the best photographer and that I am sometimes not the most original chef.

Blog on, Ugly Food Blogger ... blog on.

Tag, I'm it.

Damn! I hate these things. I think I'm the most uninteresting person in the world, so why would you want to read 7 boring facts about me? beats me, but Erika has tagged me, so I will give in to the insanity.

1. I drive a Nissan Altima that is the color "smoke". The car is Smokey and I am the Bandit. Together we are Smokey and the Bandit. Thankfully, I in no way resemble Burt Reynolds.

2. I have a jar of chicken fat in my fridge. I'll bet there aren't many bloggers out there that have the same.

3. I hate all things raspberry. I can't elaborate on that. If it has anything to do with a raspberry, I will run in the other direction. Ew.

4. I once dropped an entire pot of steamed broccoli on the floor and proceeded to serve it to my entire family. To quote my dad: "Dori, I am FLOORED by this broccoli."

5. I have 2 cats: Mittens and Peanut Butter. Their nicknames are Puppa (Mittens) and Butter (guess which one that is).

6. I LOVE bananas but hate anything and everything with banana in it. Muffins, bread, smoothies...they all make me want to puke. Seriously. If I smell bananas outside of their natural state, I gag.

7. My husband loves to vacuum. Ok, that wasn't about me...well, in a way it was. I was indirectly saying that I hate to vacuum.


OK....thats it. I am tagging Butter & Love, Sheri, Martha, MA Girl in the OC, Sarah, Trisha, and Annie.
