I was wondering if anyone has heard of the book/diet called Eat Right for your Type by Dr. Peter J. D'Adamo with Catherine Whitney.  

It's one of the many diet books I've bought that I hoped would work just because I bought the book!

I have met several people who had success with it, tho. They probably did more than just buy the book... :)

My tummy is still too full from yesterday.

DR Danise, you and Cillaliz and I should support each other during our weight loss efforts.

Me too! Of course...I have to do something which constitutes an "effort"...

DR Ron Pulliam - You may not have had your brekkies yet, but is it possible that you've had a Bloody Mary or two already?  Or as one of my old roommates used to call them: "cockies" (as in cocktails).

I got a couple of pics here and there.  However, Emily has a cold right now, so she was not feeling so photogenic this time.  John Michael and Alyssa were also surprisingly camera-shy too.  But I did manage to get a few pics.

Hi all!  I hope all had a wonderful holiday.  

Today I shall work on my Christmas cards.  I don't have everyones address so I'm sorry if you don't receive a card.

I still can't drive so any Black Friday shopping is out of the question.  Not that I would go out anyway.   I was hoping to get a good deal on a HD TV but I also figure that the after Christamas sales should be good.  By then, I should be able to drive and I should also be able to assemble the table I will have to buy for it to sit on.



Young lady, does it ever occur to you to ask other people for help?  I don't mean that you can't assemble a table by yourself, but it is often more fun to have a friend to laugh over the instructions with, and misplace pieces together.  

You could invite your friend / co-worker that has been so helpful driving you around to come over some night after Christmas for dinner and an assembly party.  It might make the assmbly easier and a lot more fun!

Congrats to DR Ron on his successful Black Friday foray!

I don't have a new computer, but I AM trying out a new ISP. Many of you have heard me complain about mine a lot lately. So, we shall see...

I agree with DR JULIE that the Friday after Thanksgiving is a lazy day.

One thing that is disappointing to me is the current trend to use these ready to eat things that seem to show up on tables nowadays...stuffing, mashed potatoes, apples, that you just heat up in the microwave. I know it's easy, and granted that I didn't have to cook for a bunch of people, but I hope when we do have T-day here next year I will be able to make some of these lovely recipies (including bk's creamed corn!) instead of these things.

M Barnum, I am so sorry to read of the passing of Mr. Park.  Did you ever have a chance to interview him?

Pumpkin Fluff is a Weight Watchers recipe:  16 oz. can of pumpkin, 1.5 oz box of sugar-free instant vanilla (yesterday's used butterscotch) pudding mix, 8 oz. fat-free Cool Whip, pumpkin pie spice to taste.  This was provided for one of the guests who's diabetic, but everyone tasted it.  I read a suggestion online to serve it as a dip for graham crackers.

This sounds really good!  We have an annual holiday potluck at work...I might consider making it for that. :)

Does the "THINK" system count?

I did a play with a director who blocked the entire, well almost entire play (the first two acts) using the Think System.  Actually I ended up having to block the third act using the Directing System.

Was it a farce?

Style of play, not the results.  Just making that clear.   ::)

I would think that specific staging for a farce would almost necessarily be more urgent than would be required for a drama, to make it work properly.

No, it was one of those quirky little murder / no murder mysteries that dinner theaters and community theaters jumped at following the success of DEATHTRAP.  I don't think anyone could have made the show work, although we tried.

We had a dish with our Thanksgiving dinner last night that I had never tried before, but really enjoyed.  It  was brought to the dinner by a woman from East Texas.  It was a dish made with corn, and I believe she said, cheese and jalapenos.

Yummy!

One of the interesting things I read (for example) was that Brussels Sprouts inhibits thyroid hormone for type o's (which is what I am).  I happen to LOVE brussels sprouts.

Is this a good thing or a bad thing (about the inhibiting of the thyroid hormone)?
