I've been wondering this for some time, it's been obvious to me that the term is used in different ways and was curious how women on this forum use it. It is helpful!
I hardly ever eat at restaurants, the rare times I do it is a treat. I think the only times I've done so this year has been with certain TE women :cool:
Good thread.
I will drink banana's juice in breakfast
I will eat vegetable roll in lunch
and i will take green tea in dinner.
Thanks

I cook up egg yolks and feed them to my chickens as a snack. It's very healthy for laying hens.
Tonight I made kickash fish tacos with tilapia, inspired by our awesome mexican restaurants on Cherokee St. in St. Louis. They are very authentic in that part of town.
Recipe is on my blog: http://larissaridesforcleanair.org/2...el-fish-tacos/
That makes a lot of sense, but the concept is...well, you know what I mean. :pQuote:
