Acute How-To: Ice Cream Sandwiches

Acute How-To: Ice Cream Sandwiches

By ReginaMorrison on September 1, 2011

This weekend is Labor Day – the unofficial end of summer. What better way to celebrate than with a yummy and non-guilt inducing ice cream treat? A few months ago, I posted low calorie and healthy {ish} frozen treats. In that post I promised I would be back with an under 150 calorie ice cream [...]

What I Learned on My Summer Vacation

By liz-kalloch on August 30, 2011

This summer I reacquainted myself with a few things that had been missing from my repertoire of life over the past 9-10 months. Much of my summer was about slowing it down, reining it in and walking instead of running (and even floating instead of standing). The last week or so I have had several [...]

Acute How-To: Summer Berry Cobbler

Acute How-To: Summer Berry Cobbler

By ReginaMorrison on July 21, 2011

Throughout the summer, I love to eat and cook with berries.  They are the freshest during the summer months which makes them extra delicious. One super simple berry dessert recipe is a cobbler.  A cobbler is kind of like a pie, except that it takes very little effort or baking skills.  So, if you don’t [...]

being busy and the end of the endless summer

By gwyn-michael on July 11, 2011

These days everybody is busy, and busy can be good if it means having enough work. But what about life beyond work? That seems to be filled with busy too, as many of us are constantly connected to some form of communication device. I have reached the point of too much. I am overwhelmed and [...]

Acute How-To: Frozen Treats

By ReginaMorrison on June 30, 2011

As of last week – it is officially summer and temps are rising! One of my summer goals is to create healthy{ish} frozen treats that I can enjoy without the guilt on hot days. These two popsicle recipes I created are a good start.  The Banana Split Fruit Pops are low fat, have no added [...]
