what is it about active shows that make me want to eat everything in sight?

OK. For whatever reason, every time I catch "The Biggest Loser" or "Dancing with the Stars" (or even Infomercials for "Turbo Jam" - a great workout program btw) I want to do nothing but eat. Stuff my face and watch other people work out. Do I feel guilty? hmmm - maybe. But I cannot help myself. Perhaps I feel bad for those who are busting their ass as I nibble on frozen mangos or think to myself " as they are crunching calories, I am crunching cayanne popcorn.... umm, Cayenne helps burns extra calories, right??





Speaking of food. Get this Gluten Free peeps - Betty Crocker is AWESOME and is unveiling GLUTEN FREE BAKING MIXES!!! ZOMGWTFBBQ!!! According to Betty (Crocker, that is) she's unleashing tasty gluten free vanilla cake, devils food cake, brownie and chocolate chip cookie mixes and even offers modifications for dairy/casein/butter free. YAY!!! GOOOOO BETTY!!



And Ms. Betty is one savvy lady with a hot, Free Iphone app featuring 4,000 tasty recipes. You can search for recipies no problem.. or you can say "hey Betty, all i have is chicken, day old pasta and peas. wtf can I do w/ this??"- and it will respond with : "how does tasty chicken garlic pasta studded with Parmesan peas sound? you can do it!". Step by step photos guide the way. How great would this be after a long day at work... you're in the grocery store totally void of culinary inspiration...or staring at your virtually bare fridge wondering if you bought blue cheese or if your block of romano went bad... and voila!! Instant tasty ideas (like bacon salt)! Here's hoping the app includes gluten free/friendly recipes. Here's also hoping caring friend or reader will donate an Iphone so we (I) can continue to experiment and review on your behalf, gentle reader :)
