I guess i'm more corresponding with my friends on facebook,blogging is not my thing really,or i guess it would be more interesting to write if something exciting was going on.We just work all the time,we're no fun...
Anyhow,Brett and i have been on a pretty strict diet.Brett has kind of a high blood pressure,and i have had high blood sugar for about 3 months.So,i've been taking classes on diabetes to help me understand the whole thing a little better and to learn about nutrition.I have to really measure my food portions and watch the carbs.I've tried some things that i never thought i would like.Some of the healthy foods i wouldn't recommend to anyone,but on the other hand there's some things that i've enjoyed so far...,like

• WHOLE GRAIN PASTA - love it!Have to tell you...i almost enjoy it more than white pasta.
• BROWN RICE - same thing.Love it more than white rice.I like how it's almost crunchy when you cook it.
• TURKEY BACON - still not the best choice,but lower in calories,sodium and fat.Tastes pretty good.
• QUINOA - (a grain-like crop grown primarily for its edible seeds. It is a pseudocereal rather than a true cereal, or grain, as it is not a grass).I make quinoa pilaf with some vegetables as a side-dish,and it's yummi.You can also have as a cereal,but i haven't tried it that way yet.I get it at "Good Earth",but i hear they start to have it elsewhere.
• FAT FREE COTTAGE CHEESE - i find it delicious only when i mix it with fresh fruit or some salsa.

Just some of the things from my "healthy" list.I've been actually feeling a lot better eating what i'm suppose to.We both lost some weight and i manage to keep my blood sugar on average levels and Brett's high blood pressure seems to be lower.
We've been doing pretty good,except it's kinda hard to come up with easy healty recipes.
Any suggestions for us?
