lol, that is me too, jabber. I love to eat and I am a good cook. Cooking good homemade food has been part of my life for so long. I really don't eat a lot of junk food(except at this time of the year... a lot of quality control testing going on while making the cookies and candy grin)but I do enjoy eating mashed potatoes and gravy and homemade bread. I always have homemade bread/rolls of some kind in my freezer. I can't tell you the last time I ate store bread.

I am thinking of trying yoga. Any yoga gals here that can recommend a good DVD for beginners. I am more interested in keeping flexible, in my now senior years, than I am on losing the 10 pounds, but if those 10 extra pounds happens to fall off in the process, yay! lol
